We had always heard Royal Caribbean was the top of the line when it came to cruise ships. So, we decided, this time, to try one. It was a nice cruise but definitely not a step up from Celebrity or Norwegian. The little things were missing, not many dining venues were offered, requests for dining time changes were frowned upon (and actually made us feel awkward — we were a party of only 2!),…We ...
I chose this cruise because I wanted to try cruising on an older, smaller cruise ship with my kids. I saw a relatively cheap cruise from Baltimore, Maryland and booked it. My kids were a little disappointed as they were expecting to go on one of the newer cruise ships, but, nevertheless, they had a great time onboard. We entered the ship in the atrium, which really amazed us. For the size and age ...
Wanted to see Charleston SC and Coco Cay. It was ok and Poogan Porch was nice. I forgot my credit card and had some cash but not enough for whole bill. I am sending them the difference. Really didn't do a lot on the ship. Broadway shows were fine but I am not into variety and comics. The pool area is small, 2 pools so all the kids were in it most of the time. The solarium was fine but I like more ...
This was my first time on Royal. Probably will be my last unless I get a really cheap deal. The overall experience was average. Some things were fantastic, like the crew. I can't believe how happy, friendly and helpful all of the crew were.
Food was below par, worst of any cruise I've been on. In the MDR, most of the food came out cold on the first night. We informed the wait staff and they ...
Disappointing Cruise on Enchantment of the Seas - July 14, 2022
I have been cruising since the 1960’s and mainly on RCCL since the 1980’s, being a Diamond Plus now. I recently sailed on the Enhancement from Baltimore which is a great port to sail from. I had a balcony cabin. It was the biggest disappointment of all my cruises.
The ship is almost 25 years old and is worn and tired. It has ...
With a Junior Suite, we didn't expect both air conditioning circulating vents over the bed and the table to drop black soot on several different days. The staff was quick to clean up but couldn't be responsible for the malfunction. The sewer smell in the elevators and around the deck four entrance to the dining room wasn't quite the greeting one would expect for entering for meals. The dining ...
Been on many cruises from RC a little disappointed this time from the very casual dress in the dining room on formal night to dirty disgusting floors around inside and outside pools they wiped up water right by the pools but that was it they use to clean the chairs and decks every night our cabin was spotless our room steward did an awesome job I am trying to figure out why you cannot get a ...
My friend and I chose this cruise because it sailed out of Baltimore, so we didn't need to fly. This cruise was rescheduled twice. The best thing is that by the time of our cruise, masks were no longer required indoors. Our ship was fully vaccinated.
Enchantment is one of their oldest ships and it is in need of refurbishment. Much of the furniture is very dated. We had issues with the sliding ...
This is our second cruise on the Enchantment of the Seas in nine months. I can honestly say that this cruise was not as nice as the cruise we took May 2012. We live about a hour from Baltimore so it is very easy for us to get to the port. Once we got to the port it was very easy. We got there just in time no lines or hassles. Waited about 45 minutes and then we were able to board.
First items ...
We booked this cruise because it was a bus trip from Pittsburgh to Baltimore and we liked the idea of "no flying" involved. The bus trip was great and we arrived at the port with no problem. Once inside the terminal I told the RCCL rep that we were Diamond members and he directed me to a line. While standing there for a few minutes we found out that we were in the wrong line. Another rep directed ...
