Overall Rating: About the Reviewer: Age: 50 - 65 Cruise Experience: 2 - 3 cruises Traveler Type: Couple Stateroom Type: Balcony Carnival Liberty is Terrible! by Evelyn H. from United States Sailing date: Jan 2012 Pros: Not much at all. Cons: Just about e everything, especially he confusing layout of the ship. The layout was terrible and very difficult to get to certain places. Had to take elevators to a certain place, then take other elevators different levels up or down to try to get where you needed to. Very few directions and even the staff were confused and not sure. On the 2nd day at sea, the ship tipped to a 45 degree angle, having chairs, plates, glasses, etc., crashing to the floor.The pool emptied out halfway. It was very scary for everyone on deck. The menu at the restaurant was so bad, we never once had dinner at the restaurant and preferred eating on the Lido deck. Shows were too late in the evening. music was blaring much more than it should have been, not allowing you to read and relax. Ship Details: Ship Quality I actually complained about a bathroom where the toilet paper was all over the floor. It was filthy. The pool help did nothing and ignored my comment. Dining/Food Restaurant menu was horrible. Beef stroganoff? Please! The best place to eat was at the Fish and Chips but it was only open a couple hours a day, around noon time. Stateroom Quality The girls did a good job cleaning. But there was little room to move around the room. Ship Staff Quality Most of the staff were unfriendly and were not familiar with the ship, since they were so uninformed. This included Guest Services who gave us wrong information. Entertainment & Activities Too late. You could not enjoy the poolside activities due to the blaring of the music. The shows were too late at night for us to attend. 5 out of 13 people found this review helpful. Did you find this review helpful? Overall Rating: About the Reviewer: Age: 30 - 49 Cruise Experience: 4 - 6 cruises Traveler Type: Family w/young children Stateroom Type: Balcony Worst cruise I ever had by Jane K from Pennsylvania Sailing date: Jan 2011 Pros: Camp Carnival Cons: Food- Rooms and overall service The worst cruise I ever experienced. Went to relax. We booked a balcony on the 6th floor in the back of ship thinking it would be quiet for our family. Two adults and a3 and 4 year old. What surprise. Around 8 oclock the band started playing on the fifth floor. At that moment our floors and walls were actually shacking and vibrating. I just wanted to relax and you could not even put your head on the pillow. The drums were too loud. It stopped around 12:00 a.m. Second night called to tell customer service. I told them I really need to sleep. See what we can do I was told. Third night I slept on the balcony. This went on for 6 days. Did not sleep. I could not sleep. Finaly tthe conclusion from them was get earplugs. Good answer!!! I paid 2500.00 to relax and I had to buy earplugs. What a joke. After days of asking for help. I asked for 1/2 my cruise back. Thought that was fair for the problems. They could not do that according to their policy. They did give some off my bill but that was a drop in the bucket for planning a vacation expecting to relax. The food was terrible and you had to wait in line like cattle for about 20 minutes to get something to eat. Then when you did it was terrible!!!! Same food for breakfast for 6 days. Ice cream machine was always out of ice cream for the kids. The pool had no supervision. My kids were jumped on several times by the other children. They did not swim much. The waterslide was a joke. You had to walk up around people to get up the steps. Would not recommend for children under six years. Would not recommend fo ranyone. Waiting for superviser to call me. Let you know on that one. Not expecting a call. Ship Details: Ship Quality terrible to get around Dining/Food Same food for days. Long lines. Stateroom Quality Terrible for loud noises Ship Staff Quality Not friendly. Except for our cabin steward Entertainment & Activities No wonderful shows to talk about Children's Programs Camp carnival was nice. Not much more Read this user's port of call reviews: Cozumel, Mexico; George Town, Grand Cayman; Ocho Rios, Jamaica Collapse List of Ports Ports of Call: Cozumel, Mexico Beautiful water. Nice place to sit and relax Don't Miss: not sure George Town, Grand Cayman Nice area very clean. Don't Miss: Just swimming in the beautiful water Ocho Rios, Jamaica Terrible. They kept hounding you to buy something. Beaches not so clean Don't Miss: nothing 3 out of 5 people found this review helpful. Did you find this review helpful? Overall Rating: About the Reviewer: Age: 18 - 29 Cruise Experience: First cruise Traveler Type: Couple Stateroom Type: Oceanview Terrible Food by A Traveler from Miami, Florida Sailing date: May 2010 Pros: The ports of call Cons: The Food The food was terrible unless you are willing to pay to go to the onboard nice restaurant "Harrys". We ate at the ports of call whenever possible to avoid eating on the ship. Room service breakfast was probably the best of all the food. How can you go wrong with a bagel and coffee? It was my first and last cruise with carnival. Ship Details: Ship Quality Dining/Food Stateroom Quality A bit outdated and tacky. Ship Staff Quality Entertainment & Activities The variety shows were ok, most activites you had to pay extra Read this user's port of call reviews: Grand Turk Island; Half Moon Cay, Bahamas (Cruiseline Private Island); San Juan, Puerto Rico; Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas, U.S.V.I. Collapse List of Ports Ports of Call: Grand Turk Island beach is nice. Margaritaville is nice too but a bit overpriced. Don't Miss: margaritaville, and beach Half Moon Cay, Bahamas (Cruiseline Private Island) Great water, but food on the island is provided by carnival. San Juan, Puerto Rico This was the best. Lots to see, great food. Don't Miss: The forts Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas, U.S.V.I. Not much to see , except for the shopping area around the port, which unless you are buying diamonds or liquor it's a waste of time. 1 out of 2 people found this review helpful.

Overall Rating: About the Reviewer: Age: 65+ Cruise Experience: 4 - 6 cruises Traveler Type: Singles/friends Stateroom Type: Inside Think Twice Before Selecting Carnival by richard s from central Florida Sailing date: Jan 2010 Pros: That it ended Cons: They took my wine out of my suitcase I was not impressed with Carnival----they opened my suitcase and took my good wine----gave it back Friday nite---it was far superior to any of the wines they had----they charge as much as four times the retail price for the wine they serve on board. The food and service in the dinning room did not come close to my expectations---only could get coffee after the meal and desert was served and then had to almost always ask fpor it--- typically had to adk for more water. House keeping was very good---staff was friendly. They don't accomadate cigar smokers---can't even smoke them on drck Had beem on Holland Americas earlier----was like driving a Mercedes(Holland) and driving a old Voltswagon van (Carnival Liberty) my advice---think twice before booking Ship Details: Ship Quality Not a convient layout except fifth floor Dining/Food Stateroom Quality Ship Staff Quality Entertainment & Activities 0 out of 6 people found this review helpful.

The food was excellent in the Steak house restaraunt and the shrimp was very good. The best part of the ship was our stuart he was great. I will not be going or recommending this ship to anyone. I loved the outside big big screen TV. Ship Details: Ship Quality We loved being on deck 10 we could just walk to the pool. Dining/Food We loved to food at Harry's Steak out have never tasted better, also Mongolan Grill, Fish and Ships, Deli sandwiched and the Burrito bar. Stateroom Quality loved our room Ship Staff Quality loved our stuart, Entertainment & Activities shows were disapointing compared to other Carnival ships. 6 out of 7 people found this review helpful.

Overall Rating: About the Reviewer: Age: 50 - 65 Cruise Experience: 7+ cruises Traveler Type: Family w/older children Stateroom Type: Oceanview Disappointing by Luanne G from Wisconsin Sailing date: Dec 2008 Pros: The warm weather Cons: The rough rocky seas, arriving at Puerto Rico at night, being ripped off in St.. Marten by a woman braider. The Carnival Liberty was nice. Food was OK, but need to have better food choice selections. The food started to taste and smell the same. Ship Details: Ship Quality Room size was comfortable. Our stateroom did not appear to be dusted, but I realize the housekeepers don't get alot of extra time to do a complete job! Decor on Liberty was nice! Dining/Food Need to have better selections. Not everyone likes fish! My husband and kids were denied dining one evening as they were told they were not properly dressed. (Note: It was just dress casual night!) Stateroom Quality Ship Staff Quality Called housekeeping to clean room after getting a late start. They never showed up till the evening. Entertainment & Activities One performer did not show. Wasn't impressed with cruise director. Read this user's port of call reviews: San Juan, Puerto Rico; Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas, U.S.V.I.; Philipsburg, St. Maarten Collapse List of Ports Ports of Call: San Juan, Puerto Rico Took the San Juan tour and shopping. I really like this the best. However, it was disappointing to not be able to see Puerto Rico during the day. Our ship did not arrive until 5:00. Our tour was supposed to start at 5:00. We did not get to start until 6:15 PM. Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas, U.S.V.I. All the shops were the same. Jewerly was pushed by many merchants. Philipsburg, St. Maarten Took the island tour. Streets are very congested with traffic. I got robbed by a woman braider. 6 out of 15 people found this review helpful. Did you find this review helpful?
