	Overall Rating: About the Reviewer: Age: 30 - 49 Cruise Experience: 2 - 3 cruises Traveler Type: Family w/young children Stateroom Type: Oceanview Fun but not really relaxing family time by Melissa from United States Sailing date: Dec 2011 Pros: Crew hospitality was superb! Cons: Be ready to spend, spend, spend! Loved our cabin, on board entertainment, staff esp. cabin/stateroom crew. Would have liked more relaxation time with my husband but that was hard with a 3 and 8 year old. Found some of the "hidden" costs, for instance kids had pop package and assumed that included pop in the stateroom-it did not!-VERY EXPENSIVE! Staying connected on board was extremely expensive-Recommend buying international package from Verizon. Spa Hot Stone Massage was fabulous by Jenn, she's Irish. Highly recommend. Excursions were alright, but docking times severly cut into sun and fun time esp. during winter months when sun goes down early. Ship Details: Ship Quality Food was great, drinks were strong and not too unreasonably priced! BEWARE of stateroom beverages! They cost a fortune and ARE NOT FREE! Dining/Food Food was great. Didnt realize till the last day that I could eat more than one offering at the formal dinners though! Take advantage of this during lobster formal night! The lobster was some of the best Ive ever had! Stateroom Quality Kids loved the drop down bunks, and towel animals. I loved the bed and linens but hurt my husband's bad back. Ship Staff Quality Our stateroom attend, IVAN, was fabulous as were the other two stateroom attendants in the corridor, Lamar, and Pardeem. Our Head Waiter, Sherry was genuinely kind and accommodating. Front desk was very helpful. No complaints about anyone associated with Royal Caribbean's employees the went above and beyond. Entertainment & Activities There were a ton of activities to participate in and they were all optional. Cruise director and his assistant were funny and we loved the on board television show they did. we also liked the pictures they took all the time and should have taken more advantage of those opportunities. Children's Programs My older son, 8 yrs old, loved the activities and had a great time. My only complaint was that they would not take my younger son, who just turned 3 yrs, and was not fully potty trained for activities without either myself or husband. This really added to this not being a very relaxing vacation for him and I. If there had been some program that could take him, even for 1-2 hrs, that would provided us with some down time. It would have made the vacation a total success. Babysitting was available but it cost additional money and we found it difficult to arrange d/t availability of staff. We also had some concerns on who we would be leaving him with in our stateroom. 7 out of 9 people found this review helpful. Did you find this review helpful?

Cons: The only bad thing was the coffee! Hehe but they had a specialty coffee shop to make up for it The ship was an older one built in the 90s but renovated at some point in the 2000s. That being said, everything was beautiful. They also keep up on maintenance really well (even when we were sailing!)

Overall Rating: About the Reviewer: Stateroom Type: Balcony Enchanting Enchantmrnt of the Seas by Kathy N. from Washington, DC Sailing date: Aug 2011 Pros: Variety of entertainment and decor Cons: Quality of food in the main dining room This was a long over due holiday on a 5 day trip to Bermuda. My husband and I were simply looking to relax and see Bermuda for the first time. This beautiful ship has so many wonderful places to explore, and even though it was completely full, we easily found quiet spots and empty lounge chairs to enjoy. There was a wide variety of shows and entertainment and the cruise staff went out of their way to make each guest feel welcome. Food in the Windjammer was typical buffet, with choices for everyone and nice atmosphere. Food in the main dining room was average at best. Just not worth getting dressed up for. Overall, it was an excellent cruise and I would highly recommend it. Ship Details: Ship Quality This is an older ship that is kept immaculate and has a lovely decor. Dining/Food Quality, taste, presentation in main dining room was average at best. Tasteless sauces and desserts, over cooked meat and fish, small portions. HOWEVER, the Windjammer cafe had a decent variety and the service was excellent. Stateroom Quality Small, but very clean and comfortable. Plenty of storage, great stateroom attendants - they work so hard and always had great attitude. Ship Staff Quality Entertainment & Activities Loved cruise director - John Blair - and his wife Katrina. Very professional. Read this user's port of call reviews: King's Wharf, Bermuda Collapse List of Ports Ports of Call: King's Wharf, Bermuda Very interesting and convenient spot to dock. No need for tender, safe at night, lots of things to do - plenty of shops, history, beautiful sights. Don't Miss: Frog and Onion Pub - especially at night when lit up with candles and great live entertainment. 6 out of 8 people found this review helpful. Did you find this review helpful?

They made our experience while on board great. I would love to travel on another cruise with that same group of people. I can't wait until our next opportunity for a cruise and hope that if it is on a different boat or a different cruiseline that the people onboard will be as good to us and make is as wonderful!!!

Overall Rating: About the Reviewer: Age: 50 - 65 Traveler Type: Couple Stateroom Type: Inside A Beautiful cruise to Bermuda by Rita J. from Rochester, NY Sailing date: Oct 2010 Pros: A fantastic indoor/outdoor pool Cons: poor and expensive internet The Enchantment of the Seas was a beautiful ship and very clean. They had a pool called the Solarium that was like a Roman bath. The water was salt water and very refreshing. The glass roof could move away so the pool was outside but in cooler weather if closed to keep it warm. This was my favorite spot on the ship. No children were allowed in this area. The big outside pool was noisy with lots of music that I am sure someone else would like. I enjoyed the jogging track on Deck 10. It was a 1/4 mile once around. Overall this was a wonderful trip. My husband found the internet expensive and very slow. There was an internet lounge to get internet but not enough plugs for laptops. Ship Details: Ship Quality The ship was extremely clean, the public areas were pretty and kept with the nautical theme. Dining/Food The Windjammer cafe was perfect for eating quickly to enjoy more of the beach. My Fair Lady dining room was elegant but too large so there was a lot of noise at dinner. For lunch and breakfast the dining room was a pleasant volume. At dinner I felt we were smushed together to accomodate all the tables. The quality of the food and service were tremendous. Stateroom Quality Overall, very clean and well maintained. The room steward made towel folded animals each night. It wsa difficult to walk around the bed to get to the bathroom. Once we unpacked and put our suitcases in the closet there was not much room. The room had nice wall sconces and it was well lit. I liked the wall switch by the bed to turn off the over head lights. This was an inside room. I have cruised before and I thought the room was a little small. Ship Staff Quality T he staff was friendly and fun. The staff was definitely well trained. We did not require any extra services. Entertainment & Activities There was plenty to do. We went to trivia and had fun and it was challangeing. The dnce lessons ere too easy for us. The big shows were well done but I felt they had been cleaned up for children. The classical music in the main lobby was beautiful, both classical guitar and another group was violin and piano. The schedule was fine. Read this user's port of call reviews: King's Wharf, Bermuda Collapse List of Ports Ports of Call: King's Wharf, Bermuda Horseshoe beach was outstanding. There was a step climb back to the top but iff you are not hardy they had a mini van that would drive you to the top for $2! Hamilton was a cute little town with some shopping. The water taxis were on strike but when we arrive the ship said they would run just to Hamilton and the ship. We took the bus to the beach and thne then the bus to Hamilton. We were hoping to take the water taxi back to the ship but there was sign stating 4pm and then 7:30Pm was the nest one. Hmmm we thought, does the toen want us to stay for dinner as opposed to eating at the ship. If the water taxis had run we would have gone to St. Georges, everyone said it was great. On our 1/2 day, the next, day my husband swamm with the dolfins and he really liked this. I explored the dock yard. I wish I has done the Maritime Museum and snorkel in a shipwreck. The island of Bermuda was very clean and easy to get around on the buses. Don't Miss: Horseshoe beach 9 out of 10 people found this review helpful. Did you find this review helpful?
