I think both ships have the "lazy river" pool, but it's more just a circular pool (about the size of a large hot tub) with circulating water. It's not a "lazy river" like you'd see at a water park. I agree Allure will have more to do, but not a lot. Have you looked at flight prices/times? Flying to Orlando/Melboure/Daytona vs. Miami/Lauderdale/W. Palm may be enough of a price difference to help you choose.
I'm flying from Canada (Toronto) and the flights are all generally the same flying into MCO, FLL or Tampa. I haven't tried Daytona or W. Palm, but I will, thanks!
Funny thing is, the 7 night on the Allure on March 6th is about $30 cheaper then the 7 night on the Freedom and both are Verandah rooms.
Now, March 13th, 7 night is a tad higher on the Allure then the Freedom, but that's if I stay in a Porthole room vs a Verandah room. I really don't care what type of room I have as long as it's not an inside room cause I would have panic attacks.
Another thing I'm considering is that we're staying 3 nights before the B2B cruises on Disney property to just enjoy the resort, no parks. We would have to leave early Sunday am to drive to FLL which is appx 3 hours. We've done this drive before when we sailed the Disney Wonder out of Miami.
If I do the Freedom, it's about an hour drive to PC give or take.
One thing I don't like is I can't do laundry on the ship, I didn't realize this! I can't go 14 nights without doing laundry!
I have to make my decision up by tom and I'm going crazy lol...
