Royal Caribbean International: Freedom of the Seas

Accommodations

Layout: As on other Royal Caribbean ships, cabins are bright and cheerful. Although 60% are outside cabins—and a whopping 78% of those have private balconies—bargain inside cabins, including some that are uniquely configured with a bowed window for a view overlooking the action-packed promenade, are plentiful. Cabins in every category have adequate closet and drawer-shelf storage, as well as bathroom shelves. Family ocean-view cabins with a window sleep up to six people with two twin beds (convertible to queen-size), bunk beds in a separate area, a sitting room with a sofa bed, a vanity area, and a shower-only bathroom. At 1,215 square feet, the Presidential Suite sleeps 14 people and has an 810-square-foot veranda with a hot tub and bar.

Amenities: Wood cabinetry, a small refrigerator/minibar, Ethernet connection, vanity-desk, flat-panel TV, personal safe, a hair dryer, and a sitting area with sofa, chair, and table are typical features in all categories. Bathrooms have shampoo and bath gel. Premium beds and bedding complete the comfortable package.

Good to Know: Thirty-two staterooms are wheelchair accessible.
