Cruise Line: Royal Caribbean Cruises Times cruised before: 1-2
Cruise Ship: Freedom of the Seas Sailed: September, 2008
Destination: Caribbean Age: 36-45
Cabin: Balcony Occasion: Annual/regular holiday
My partner and I had cruised several times before, but this was by far the biggest and grandest ship I have ever seen. The cabin was spacious and well cleaned, the balcony great to watch the setting sun as we cruised around the Carribean. The facilities on the ship are fantastic; the Wave Rider great to watch even if you don't want to participate.
We chose to eat in the main dining area all evening and enjoyed the formal evenings with a chance to "dress up". The food was fantastic and the waiting service very attentive.
One of my favourite experiences was watching the ice skating show and the other fantastic shows that are performed every night.
The only downside - that even with a weeks sail we did not have time to experience everything there was to do!
