Review summary

This was first cruise for me and my partner. We were both impressed with the ship, crew, activities, and food. It was a three night cruise to Nassau, and Coco Cay. the first night was rough seas and the crew made sure people who were getting motion sick were well taken care of. The room was a interior room i found to be nice very clean with plenty of storage for cloths and bags. The bars had a good selection of drinks both frozen and not and the bar staff were very entertaining. Main dining room staff took great care to make sure we were happy. The buffet had a good selections and i say were general good tasting food threw out. I love the entertainment in theater and nightly activity. Stops while i say Nassau is nice i did find the straw market a bit pushy but Senior Frogs is best stop for us. We love RCI private Island Coco Cay. Clean beaches, great views, plenty to do for the day. We have decided after talking to many seasoned passengers we joined the RCI club and this will be our cruise line of choice. I have only two complains. First we both wanted it to last 2 or 3 more days so next will be 5 to 7 nights. Second luggage took awhile to come to our room. It was around 7pm before but after checking with desk i talked to our room steward he explained there was luggage still being checked. He went and checked for our luggage and it was delivered shortly after that.

Being first time cruise already looking for time and what and were next cruise will goto.

Ship tip

Being First cruise i have nothing to compare it to. But i did not see anything i would say needed repair. I did never go to the casino on board. Over all if like me taking a first time cruise the 3 night on Enchantment is great way to find out if you like to cruise or not.
