We just returned from our family & friends cruise to Belize, Costa Maya, and Cozumel on Liberty of the Seas. There were 27 of us. It was great! We really enjoyed it. The ship was amazing, so many things to do, the staff is fantastic.
I was sooo skeptical of a cruise especially traveling with a toddler (20 months). I researched everything, some answers I was looking for I did not find so I ...
This was my third trip on Royal Caribbean but 1st on the Liberty. After we booked our friends decided to join us so this would be a first traveling with friends:
Boarding:
I've read the nightmare stories and my friend had the same experience, however i can say only great things about boarding. We were dropped off by a car service at 12:30 and were in our stateroom by 1:00pm. The best ...
January 30, 2011. Arrived at Port of Miami at 1:30pm. We live on the Gulf coast of Florida, so it's a simple 2.5 hour drive to the port. Parked the car and went to stand in the line. There was a sign posted at the door that read something like: Boarding will be delayed due to custom regulations or something to that effect. WELL- 2 hours later the line finally started to move. In the 2 hour wait, I ...
My family and myself were on the January 2, 2011 Liberty of the Seas sailing. We flew into Ft. Lauderdale as coming from El Paso, Texas it is much less expensive than flying into Miami. We also like to fly in a few days early. I figure if I am going to fly that far I am going to make my trip as long as possible. We rented a car from National that I could then drop off at the Miami Airport. We ...
We're first time cruisers, and traveled with two childrend, ages 6 & 4. We booked this trip as a way to do something special for the kids. Chose this particular cruise and cruiseline b/c of the Dream Works commercials. Our kids LOVE Dream Works movies and think the characters are "cooler" than Disney.
Our ship, Liberty of the Seas, was beautiful. It was bigger, newer and nicer than any ...
Just back from Liberty of the Seas, Western itinerary. Cruising were my husband 37, myself 33, my son 19 months old, my parents 67 and 68.
We flew down to Miami the night before and stayed in Miami Beach. Took taxis to the cruise terminal and arrived a little around 11:15 AM. We were on the ship by 11:45 AM. It was a very quick and easy embarkation. No problems. We did board after the ...
It cannot be denied that the Liberty of the Seas is a magnificent ship. R.C. L. is at the top of their game with their innovative ships. Sadly, some changes have taken place over three years. We sailed on the Liberty before (2007) so I feel competent to comment on changes we experienced on our 2010 Christmas cruise.
I noticed that other people have reported similar findings, another reason ...
This was my very first cruise ever. I went in with little or no expectations other than to be warmer than I was at home. We were a group of 10 with 3 kids ages 3, 6, and 15. Riding into the Port of Miami on the shuttle bus, I was awed by the sheer size of the ship. Once we got off the bus it was a bit chaotic trying to corral 10 people to get where we needed to go. But the lines went fairly ...
Let's see, where to begin? We prepaid for our coke card, room wine, excursions... it was nice to get on board and not have all that cost weighing on you... if there are things you know you want to do, go ahead and book or order them.. it's always stinks to get that wallet out but not being hit with a gigantic lump sum at the end is well worth it. :)
Embarkation: Out of Miami, we've been ...
Just finished a 4 night cruise from Miami to Cozumel and back to Miami. This was my 5th RCCL cruise (6th overall) and first on a ship with the Flowrider. The ship is being charted by Bud Lite for 3 nights (apparrently along with the Freedom), which accounts for the shortened cruise. For point of references, my wife and I are both 30 years old and traveled alone.I did a lot of reading on these ...
