Freedom of the Seas Ship Overview

Pools

The pool deck is the place to be. And each ship has several to choose from. Bask in the sun or relax in the shade while you sip a cool tropical cocktail and enjoy the complimentary loungers and live music. From kids' aqua parks to the adults-only Solarium— and all the slides and cantilevered hot tubs in between— there's a splashy place to spend the day for every adventurer onboard.

Playmakers Bar Arcade

With a menu of game-day favorites and icy-cold draughts on tap, anything you order at Playmakers Sports Bar & Arcade is a winner. And while you’re working on a signature Playmakers Burger or the five-scoop Touchdown Sundae, you can catch your home team live on dozens of screens or face off against your friends in the arcade.

Art Collection

Park West Gallery, the largest art dealer in the world, brings you their unparalleled arts programming during your vacation. Join the Park West Art Team, for a toast at their onboard events as they introduce you to contemporary and classic artists you’ll never forget.
