Freedom of the Seas is the largest luxury cruise ship in the world, owned by Royal Caribbean.

This cruise ship weighs 160,000 tons, it is 1,112 feet long, 184 feet wide and it has 15 passenger decks holding 3,634 guests double-occupancy. Freedom of the Seas towers 208 feet tall, approximately the same height as two of the Statue of Liberty, placed head to toe.

A brand new feature is the H2O Zone, or the “spray-ground” which has colorful fiberglass sculptures shooting jets of water, geysers shooting from the ground and water cannons. There’s even a lazy river and waterfall inside! At night, this area, with the integration of an incredible lighting system, will be transformed into a sculpture garden. Royal Caribbean says, “there’s nothing like the H2O Zone on any other cruise ship today.”

You would have to define "Biggest", first. Are you asking about the Longest? Heaviest? Largest Displacement? Greatest Capacity? And are you only referring to Cruise Ships, or to Ocean Liners as well?

The Freedom of the Seas, a Cruise Ship, has a higher Gross Register Ton rating (158,000t) and a capacity of around 3,600 people

The Queen Mary 2, an Ocean Liner, is longer and taller, but she is only 152,000GRT, and is only designed to carry about 2,600 passengers.

Ocean Liners, being designed to cross open ocean, comfortably, are typically longer and narrower, and with a different hull cross section than Cruise Ships, which are designed to handle maximum people for in-shore or near-shore cruising.
