May 2024 Cruise
May
Pros: Everything was really Great!! The service on the cruise was excellent anything you needed they worked to get it for you. Meals were served with us in mind also they made sure that you had enough. I think I gained10Lbs! I would extremely recommend this company and the ship.
Cons: none
Recommended: Yes
Our server at lunch was usually Michael and he was truly a Gem. At dinner we sat at table206 at 8:00pm and our two servers were Magnificent. All the staff are Wonderful. Thank You for making our Vacation one to remember!
Enchantment of the Sea
December
Pros: Food quality and service. Staff well trained and very congenial.
Cons: None
Recommended: Yes
Really good excursion. All of us feel this way.
Small Inside Cabins
December
Pros: Food, nightly shows, engaging daily activities, excellent cabin attendants & dinning room servers
Cons: Shops on the ship were lacking, tender transfers to and from the ship needs improvement
Recommended: Yes
This is an older ship and it's starting to show its age. We booked 2 cabins (interior and a balcony). The interior cabin was so small and our granddaughter and our niece were cramped. They spend a lot of time in our more roomier balcony stateroom. The staff was excellent and went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of, especially since our granddaughter is on the autism spectrum.
Fabulous pre-Christmas cruise
December
Pros: Smaller ship, friendly staff
Cons: Be prepared to negotiate at ports
Recommended: Yes
My husband and I took our two sons, 24 and 25, on their first cruise. All of us had a wonderful time because of all the options available. Sunshine, beaches, casino, physical activity, and just the right amount of food. We embarked out of Tampa and it was easy. Disembarking was easy and fast. We would do this type of trip again. Rojas is my only disappointment. Weather affected our tendering and we got stuck on shore for 3 hours trying to get back to the ship.

Great Cruise Experience
March
Pros: Outstanding Food and Beverage, service, entertainment and staff. Was a fun cruise.
Cons: Freeport - Not much to do. Need to cab over to Port Lucaya
Recommended: Yes
Was a fun time on board with lots of activities, entertainment and good food. Staff service levels were excellent and Chops Grille was outstanding. The best Chop's experience on the cruiseline and I have been to many.
My only negative was the Freeport - Grand Bahama port experience. Had to bus/cab over to Port Lucaya which was about 1/2 hour away. Only 11 miles but was a long ride. Shuttle/bus service we used was disorganized and we had to wait well beyond our return time to get back to the ship. Port Lucaya is fun and attractive with lots of nice restaurants and bars but the cruiseline needs to do a better job of getting people to and from the location.
Great Cruise
February
Pros: Organized, wonderful staff, good food and really good entertainment.
Cons: Can’t think of any at this time.
Recommended: No
Smooth sailing and fortunately for us no storms. Captain was informative and kept the ship organized with plans to disembark at each stop. Staff was helpful, accommodating and polite. Clean ship. Entertainment was great every night. Wonderful talent with the shows. Had a really good time and would definitely go on another Royal Caribbean Cruise Ship.
Absolutely Great Ship!
September
Pros: 1. Clean 2. Updated 3. Food Was Great. 4. Accommodating Crew......BUT
Cons: 1. Didn’t have enough CREW
Recommended: Yes
This cruise was a short one but was jam packed with fun and lots of activities. The crew was great BUT just seemed like it was lacking in enough of them. I’ve cruised with RC many times on big ships and this medium ship so I know the ratio to guests to crew. But all in all the cruise was great including the ship itself.
Fun-filled cruise
July
Pros: Excellent staff
Cons: Old ship that needs more maintenance
Recommended: Yes
The staff members on this ship were among the best we have seen on many cruises. Across the board, they were professional and pleasant.
Hello
December

Great time!
It's fine for the price
October
Pros: Inexpensive and quick
Cons: State rooms need updating

Unless you're drinking more than 4 drinks per day or a bottle of wine don't get the drink package. If you decide to purchase it do so 1 week before boarding date to take advantage of the discount.
Enchantment of the Seas
September

Cons: Some of the bartenders were aloof
Recommended: Yes
Very good experience
Anniversary Cruise
August
Pros: Food,Staff,Boarding and Exiting very efficient.
Cons: Entertainment, extra charges
Recommended: Yes
Entertainment a little campy,but understandable on short cruses. Needs to have late night food stay open till after clubs close not just have room service.
Special dining restaurants should not have a extra charge menu, either include it in your price or not on menu , same in dining room and with drink pkgs.(special drinks)
Cruise
August
Pros: relaxation
Cons: excursion prices
Recommended: Yes
The cruise was great. Staff is outstanding, especially Fritz in Royal Suite housekeeping. Cons would have been if you purchase a suite, you should also get at least 1 free excursion of your choice for the price that you pay.
Bahama 3 day cruise
June
Pros: great time
Cons: none
Recommended: Yes
I received my Platinum status on this cruise and must admit that it was one of my best experience. From all "our" staff we were called my name from the 1st day whenever we encountered them. My 2 grandkids accompanied me and this being their 1st time cruise and left with a wonderful memory. They are 17 and 20.
Fantastic Cruise
April
Pros: Rooms were very clean, Everyone Very friendly, I will book another one!
Cons: Sea pass cards should be in the form of wristbands (so you dont lose)
Recommended: Yes
Everyone was very friendly & I have no complaints. This was my first cruise & I will book another one in the future. Thank you to Michelle the cruise director, Tony our Captain & our travel agent. Also, we seen the best comedian we have ever seen, Mike Pace. So funny, we all had tears rolling down. Almont had the best Senior Spring Break 2017. Thank you again to all who made this possible.
Love this experience
January
Pros:
Cons:
Recommended: Yes
I loved everything about this experience . The staff was amazing . The ship was beautiful.. it exceeded my expectations. I will defenetly cruise again !
quick weekend trip
November
Pros: Chops, Chef's Table, Room Steward
Cons: Bar service at the pool, Windjammers food and service. Formal night slobs
Recommended: Yes
All in all we love RC. Many upsides, but the service in Windjammers along with the food, and the bar service at the pools was really bad. What makes it worse was watching servers just standing around.
Sadly, cruise ships lost the glam of formal night. Now it seems that dressing up means a half clean pair of shorts and a tee-shirt.... very sad.
Ship shows wear for her age,,,
GREAT CRUISE
July
Pros: SERVICE STAFF
Cons: STOP IN KEY WEST HAD TO GO THRU CUSTOMS
Recommended: Yes
As always had a great trip on the Enchantment
staff
June
Pros: good
Cons: n/a
Recommended: Yes
Our bartender Paul English was amazing as well as out dinner server Sorcorro and Julian
Perfect 3 day get away!
June
Pros: The Bahamas/Atlantis stop had a late departure and we were able to stay and enjoy the waterpark and go out for dinner - we had to be back to the ship by 11pm - all the other cruise ships left before dinner time.
Cons: The Key West port was a pain because of having to go through customs on the ship - a little disorganized. Quick procedure in the end, but a pain.
Recommended: Yes
We went for a girls' grad trip and it was the perfect amount of time and variety of activities/excursions. Everyone on board was so nice and helpful. We had a terrific time!
Bahamas Cruise
June
Pros: Great Food, drinks, staff, destinations
Cons: not enough time at destinations, parts of ship out-dated
Recommended: Yes
Overall great Cruise experience!
!st Cruise
May
Pros: From beginning to end, everything was well thought out and executed
Cons: We didn't experience any cons
Recommended: Yes
It was a wonderful first cruise. From the airport to the ship, and on the ship and destinations were done very well. We had fun, relaxed, enjoyed the cities and entertainment on board. Well done!
First Cruise ever to Bahamas
May
Pros:
Cons:
Recommended: Yes
This was our first cruise and we were new to it all. There is alot of activities to do on the ship which was pretty cool. It was nice to stop at the different ports and to be able to do some of the excursions we prepaid for with the exception of on due to the weather however, we did get our money back. It was something to experience. We just didn't like that we had to be on-board at a certain time but we also realize that this needs to happen in order for the ship to get to the other ports. For us it's nice to be able to set your own schedule much like you do when you travel via air someplace you can pretty much do that. Keep in mind that as I mentioned above this was new. Will we go on another cruise again? My guess is yes now that we know what to expect. We will be able to better schedule what it is we want to do.
Anniversary trip
April
Pros: Most of the staff went all out to help us have a wonderful experience.
Cons: We thought the beverage packages and beverages were too expensive. Also, the items they were selling in the center of the shopping area were not worth the money.
Recommended: Yes
I am not a lover of gourmet foods so, preferred to eat in the Windjammer cafe'.
Awesome Family Vacation!
March
Pros: Great destinations, great ship staff...especially in the My Fair Lady Dining Room
Cons: Tiny cabi
Recommended: Yes
My family of four were in 4076 and unless the family has small children, the cabin and restroom were too small! The cabin across the hall had significantly more space but no window. Next time, I will sacrifice the window for space or upgrade.
Enjoyable short cruise
March
Pros: Comfortable suite with balcony, good selections for breakfast, concierge lounge service was good
Cons: Not enough choices for dinner, evening program times were too short and times were constantly changing
Recommended: Yes
Overall enjoyable cruise
Enchantment of the Sea
February
Pros:
Cons:
Recommended: Yes
We had a very good time aboard the Enchantment of the sea..... The ship exceeded in all areas...
Our trip
January
Pros: Great food
Cons: Free style dining was a problem. First night was told that we would need to wait 45 minutes. I found that unexceptable. After much conversation, we were escorted to an excellent seat and needed to reserve a time for the remaining nights.
Recommended: Yes
See cons
Bahama Cruise with the Royal Caribbean Enchantment of the Seas
January
Pros: Affordable
Cons: Smaller ship and this particular cruise seemed geared more towards the seniors crowd.
Recommended: Yes
Nice for relaxing, and relaxing we did, but not much more. We felt most of the activities were geared more towards the seniors crowd. But we really enjoyed the time to relax and do nothing. The food in the My Fair Lady dining room was awesome. All the staff throughout the ship was awesome and very attentive. The music in the promenade area was wonderful.
Best Christmas Ever
December
Pros: Entertainment, dining room service, crew
Cons: Bingo, food
Recommended: Yes
The entertainment was fabulous and the crew and dining room service was excellent.
There needs to be a better way to sell the Bingo cards and the breakfast on debarkation was not tasty. The toast was cold, the eggs were cold and not labeled so wasn't sure what I was eating and the Casino needs to update their slot machines.
Thanksgiving Cruise
November
Pros: Excellent service
Cons: Rough waters & bad weather
Recommended: Yes
Had a nice relaxing cruise even though it was very rough waters. We all had our sea legs. We have been on this cruise multiple times and have only made it to the private island 3. We did not get to go this cruise due to very rough seas.
The only thing I objected to was passengers bringing their own huge pieces of luggage on board and trying to maneuver them in the Windjammer during lunch. I think the ship should not allow luggage in any of the eating areas and should provide a place to store it until the rooms are ready.
Nassau
November
Pros: Staff was very attentive and polite
Cons: Ship is showing its age. Food quality just average.
Recommended: Yes
Food quality at breakfast and lunch just average. Dinner was a little better but only because the wait staff did everything they could to make dinners special.
Excellent
November
Pros: Great service and lots to do.
Cons:

Only my 2nd cruise
November
Pros: Staff everywhere and always helpful. Very clean and lots of fun.
Cons: None except trying to find my room every time I left it; probably my fault.
Recommended: Yes
Loved Coco Cay. Staff was excellent!
Family vacation 2015
November
Pros: Service was extraordinary
Cons: Ship is small, dated, lacks the open-air feeling of ships with Promenades.
Recommended: Yes
Royal Caribbean is STILL our preferred cruise line and we appreciate the level of service. Family Suite, 8015 (only 1 on board) was perfect! Our smaller cabin, 4513, seriously needs refreshing, especially the bathroom.
Great vacation!!
August
Pros: Staff was awesome and lines were pretty small.
Cons: Bathrooms were a little small and the pools were really full.
Recommended: Yes
Overall the vacation was great!! The staff at Boleros was wonderful. The late night shows were so funny!

Great ship with a great staff
July
Pros: On-board entertainment, food, staff
Cons: Stay away from port shopping
Recommended: Yes
I had a fantastic time and Royal Caribbean offered a top-notch experience. I would recommend that you stay away from shopping in the Bahamas. The sales staff on the islands are uncomfortably aggressive and you will be overcharged unless you haggle.
Royal Caribbean
July
Pros: Food
Cons: Beverage Package Prices
Recommended: Yes
Our ship needs a face lift and a upgrade to decor. Sewage smell made me nautious.
Great experience
June
Pros: Over all quality of staff and treatment
Cons: Food was good not great
Recommended: Yes
The professional and helpful quality of all the staff / crew was fantastic, the shows at night were very high quality ( much better than I expected)
Nice room and the ship was well cared for
Only slight downgrade was in the quality of the food, particularly the proteins. Appetizers and salads were very good, also the desserts, but the entrees were often over done and the meats not tender . Last night my wife and I ordered lobster and both of ours was way way over cooked and not flavorful.
The food serving staff was excellent at all time

May
Pros: The staff was wonderful!
Cons: The scrambled eggs in buffet and thats it!
Recommended: Yes
Everything was wonderful we had the best staff ever and we cruise a lot. Felix the Concierge was awesome, he took care of everything and four high maintenance women he did well.Then the table staff Carlington & Carlos we couldn't have asked for better. We had Val in Chops and he was a sweetheart being so attentive. Cabin staff...Hospicia was the best she took care of everything we asked and spoiled us. They all did! We felt like family to them. Ship was older but the atmosphere was inviting, clean and well maintained. Recommend to everyone this cruise!

Lack of STAFF
August
Pros: 4
Cons: 3
Recommended: Yes
The reduction in staff was very evident with regards to our previous August trip.
All had a great time .
Drew's room could have been better since the kids were on top of them.
Our shower curtain was too short and flooded the bathroom floor for the 3 nights. the steward was given noticed to no avail.
Regards ,
Andy & Kay
relaxing and will do it again
March
Pros: No hassle, great steward and cast members, COCO Cay was awesome
Cons: Bed was not as comfortable as I expected, length of island time
Recommended: Yes
would like to have spent more time on Coco Cay than in Nassau.
our room Steward and dining crew were fabulous. we did my time dining.
if the smoking can be eliminated from the casino or better aired, we would have given the one handed bandits, :) a try. Will book another cruise with Royal in the future.
4 night to Bahamas
March
Pros: Service, Staff, Private Island, Food, Teen Program
Cons: Dated Ship, Young Kids Activities, Room below dining room.
Recommended: Yes
One of Royal's smaller dated ships. Not a lot for younger kids to do. Teens program was great. Staff was great as well as food. Room below main dining room was noisy ALL night long as they must have been moving tables/cleaning and doing maintenance at night every night. The private island was nice also with more good food.

August
Pros: Customer Service, cleanliness, activities
Cons: No Cons
Recommended: Yes
My husband and I really enjoyed our experience with RCI Enchantment of the Seas! The customer service was top notch! The food was great and the cleanliness of the ship was at a high standard. I really want to give a superior rating to the Windjammer attendant (I didn't get her name, wish I had), that greeted us upon our entry for lunch and snacks. She had a wonderful and joyous presence and I really wanted to commend her on her attitude throughout our cruise experience. We will use our Travel Agency again for the next cruise! Thanks to my travel agent for all her service.
excellent short cruise
July
Pros: different locations to eat
Cons: unable to hear announcements inside of the stateroom
Recommended: Yes
Room 4074 large Oceanview stateroom was comfortable for 2. Loved the door to the shower and storage space was sufficient. Lots of activities to do for adults and children. Not enough time on short cruise to enjoy all activities. Husband and I had a wonderful family reunion July 4th celebration.
We were impressed with set up for private island, Cococay, Bahamas.diffetrnt

A Grand Cruise of Scandanavia and the Baltic Sea Region!
May
Pros: Visited many cities
Cons: The ports of call came too close, 5 or 6 with no
Recommended: No
Superb cruise of Scandanavia and the Baltic Sea Region. Day after day provided one adventure after another as we sailed into several ports of call. Finally, sailing into St. Pertersburg fulfilled my dream! THANK YOU!
A wonderful cruise
April
Pros: The staff, the food, the cabin, the beauty and efficiency of the ship.
Cons: Playing Joel Osteen, evangelist minister, out by the pool, long and loud.
Recommended: Yes
The boarding was the usual long and tedious process though not unplesant, but once past that everything was as perfect as could be possible. I was most impressed by the staff: their efficiency, their availability, their helpfulness, and their manners, showing me that nothing was too much trouble, even when they were in mid-chore. And very importantly, they were all fluent in English. That made them perfect.
Family Cruise
April
Pros: Everything was very good.
Cons: We had no complaints.
Recommended: Yes
Our family enjoyed the entire cruising experience. We received excellent service each and every day. The food was delicious.

Really enjoyed cruising with Royal Caribbean! Mark, the cruise director, did a great job! Very entertaining! We wished we would have known about the photo book that was available at the beginning of the cruise, would have had more pictures taken to put in the book we ordered!!!
