jwalk03 Posted June 23, 2014 #51 Share Posted June 23, 2014 The Lido deck on Freedom looks awesome. I am so glad they moved those hot tubs out of the middle of the deck. They always annoyed me there. Looks so much better back in the corners where they are now. Hopefully they do this on the other Conquest class ships with the same bad layout (Looking at YOU VALOR!)

I agree moving the hot tubs really opens up the lido deck and pool. The pool used to feel very closed in but not anymore. Hopefully all the Conquest Class ships will receive the same treatment, and I'm sure they will in good time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobkat26 Posted June 26, 2014 #57 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Awesome review. I am booked in 9201 for sept 1 and I can't wait. We were not sure if we were gonna be happy without a balcony but it looks to be a good cabin. :) Thanks Kathy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunnydaygirl Posted June 27, 2014 #58 Share Posted June 27, 2014 Thank you for your review and pictures. She is one of my favorite ships. Will be on her again in Aug. You mentioned a light menu on Serenity Deck. Is this new? Is there a cost? I've often wished room service delivered to lounge chairs!!

Send from device_name using Cruise Critic your_app_name App It's complimentary. You order at the bar and they will bring it to your lounger. It's a really nice touch and you can avoid the crowds at the buffet. The choices are limited but it's perfect if you don't want to leave the Serenity area.

hbrote Posted June 27, 2014 #60 Share Posted June 27, 2014 (edited) Going on the same 5 day as you reviewed next month, July 21st. See you aboard! We love the Freedom and this cruise makes number four. Also looking forward to the 2.0 upgrades that we got to experience on the Sunshine, they were great.

We were not sure if we were gonna be happy without a balcony but it looks to be a good cabin. :) Thanks Kathy I think you will LOVE it!! Awesome location and those windows are to die for. The layout is cool too. Bathroom is standard and nothing special. As I mentioned I think I would give up the balcony for this really cool outside cabin. Enjoy!

SenatorsFan Posted June 28, 2014 #63 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Thanks for all the great pictures! I last sailed Freedom in 2011 and am returning in 2 weeks. It's amazing how many small details I'd forgotten about and am looking forward to seeing again. :) We sailed Breeze last July and that's my new favourite ship. We had a wonderful dining room team and our bar waiter was outstanding. He would look for us up on deck in the daytime and get us our drinks. Every cruise is different though, and I do appreciate your comments. Heather Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PC Cruisin Posted June 29, 2014 #64 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Awesome photos! I am thinking of booking a Freedom cruise in Feb 2015 and watching prices but after your review ... I am ready to book! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare eroller Posted June 29, 2014 Author #68 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Unless I missed it in this thread I'm not seeing anyone talking about whether or not The Freedom has Guys Burgers on it or not. Does it? I guess you missed this part of the review … Ok its been written about many times, but Guy's Burgers truly are the best at sea, and better than 95% of burgers I've had even on land. They are *that* good. Always fresh, always made to order, and a perfect mix of flavors. I tend to prefer thin, smashed burgers over thick ones, and this is exactly how Guy's are prepared. For me they were about as good as they come. On any other cruise line you would pay a premium for such a high quality burger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rh2458 Posted June 29, 2014 #69 Share Posted June 29, 2014 I guess you missed this part of the review … Yes, I did. Sorry :( I did try to do a google search and most of what I was finding didn't list the Freedom. I wish I had thought to do a ctrl f with the word Guy before I asked the question.
