This was the 10th Princess Ship I have cruised on, she (the Enchanted) is now my favorite, for many reasons. There were a few changes in venues & offerings from other Princess Ships, even from other Princess Royal Class Ships. Change can be good, and I happily embraced the new & different. I was joined on this sailing by my niece, who was on her very first cruise. Auntie has spoiled her by ...
This was my 9th Princess cruise in the past four and a half years (Platinum Captain's Circle member), and third time on Enchanted Princess (previous two were in 2022). The staff is just as wonderful as every Princess ship! Unfortunately, this cruise experience was not anywhere near as enjoyable as previous two cruises. long wait times for drinks led us to believe that they are understaffed. We ...
Embarkation: VERY GOOD. We were on the ship within 25 minutes of dropping off our bags. Note for when sailing out of San Francisco, the port is off The Embarcadero and there was heavy traffic getting to the pier. We made the mistake of dropping off our luggage on the street a block south of the pier because of the traffic. If we had waited 5-10 more minutes, we could have dropped it off ...
Let me just start by saying…. My first cruise experience was Carnival. I never went back due to the Loud, party, chaotic atmosphere that some may enjoy but was not my pleasure.
Safety and security on and off the boat is a joke. Tender cards are not monitored. First come first serve. We got kicked from our tender boat as other just hopped on when they wanted to go ashore. We waited 1.5hrs to ...
This was our third cruise with princess, after having a magnificent time on its sister ship, the Royal princess back in 2017 we thought we'd all get back together and try the regal! There were 10 of us ranging from 22-80 years old.
We were all very excited as we had all just loved our time on the Royal princess but I don't know if princess has changed post covid or cruising in general.
First ...
Service was sub-par compared to other cruise lines. Reservations are required for dining room & impossible to get. Waiting in line for meals is the norm. You don't have a set seating time, table, or server.so meals are anonymous. Cabibs were VERY small not well cleaned. Mold in showe, shower gel and shampoo, and toilet not cleaned once the entire week.Room service is SLOW; 90 minutes minimum ...
We chose this cruise based on a great casino offer. We had sailed on her in 2008 and 2009 when she was fresh and nearly new. Today the ship is in fairly decent shape. Worn areas show in the elevators, and some of the common areas. The crew in general were outstanding! Nice positive vibe from the people who make this party barge go!
Princess really had their act together on embarkation, ...
Enchanted is an incredible, relatively large capacity ship that caters to the adult crowd. It is a relatively new ship, so still very clean and well crewed by a very attentive and knowledgeable crew. The food in the MDR Reserve class was exceptional every night we ate there. Specialty restaurants Crown Grill and The Catch were both excellent. Poolside grill and Slice were also good for burgers, ...
Enchanted Princess 17-27 March 2024 Review: Limited-mobility, snorkeling, suite life perspective including detailed know how
I had an egoistic desire to spend my jubilee birthday onboard. Why egoistic? Well, the first reason is obvious, it costs money, much more than we typically spend on a birthday. But there was another and more significant reason – my wife does not like cruises. In the past, ...
This cruise was simply outstanding. There are always a few caveats, and I will detail these below. I will categorise the review into several headings. Partially obstructed balcony Deck 15. Very forward facing sea at front. No obstruction. Delightful. Clean, modern, large and quiet.
Food: excellent in MDR and Wold Buffet. Occasionally, a bit cold in MDR but always tasty and fresh but ...
