Review summary

Really loved the ship and it's crew. Was not real impressed with the Bahamas as a cruise destination. Found the people to be very pushy and not really much to do expect for Atlantis and that was way to expensive for what you got to do. As a family we don't drink or go clubbing. We don't gamble. So only the beach or the water park were our options. We did the Atlantis water park and was not really impressed. It cost way to much and it was not very big. When you have gone to Schlitterbaun or a Six Flags water park, Atlantis was not that impressive. As for Coco Cay, the beach was nice and the BBQ they served was great. Again the little water park was a joke. The tide was going out so at one point the park was not usable. The cost of a snorkel and fins was overpriced. Should be able to rent those for not more than 20 dollars. The only fault with the ship was that they needed to do better at making their french fries, even the kids would not eat them. The other food was great and the crew was very friendly and helpful.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
Food that was served in the main dinning was great. The other food served at the other places on the ship could have been better. The pizza was not good, nor the french fries. The soft serve ice cream could have been beter as well.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
The cabin was clean and met our needs. No couch only one overstuffed chair so to watch tv we have to sit on the bed. One of the dresser drawers kept sliding open when the ship rocked. As a whole it was nice and since we don't spend much time in the cabin while cruising there are really no complaints.

Ship tip

Really liked the ship. The Enchantment is not a big ship compared to others we have sailed on but we found it to be clean and well run. Was real impressed with the crew and staff. They did a wonderful job. A 10 for all of their efforts. We found that our day at sea was the best day of all the cruise

Ports of call

Port Canaveral, Florida

Cococay (Cruise Line's Private Island)

3 out of 5
Found it to be a nice little island. Water Park was a joke. Food was great and the beach nice. Cost to much to rent the snorkeling gear.

Nassau, Bahamas

Nothing really to do for a family that has a limited budget. Did Altantis but the cost was outragous for what it offered. More information about free beaches and other things for people on a budget and who don't want to go drinking or gambleing. People way to pushy at the markets and other shops. We are use to that because we have cruised before but other family members found it to be offensive.

I really love sea days, also.  The best French Fries that I ever had was at the Dive-In poolside on the ms Amsterdam.  They are made in house.  Fries served elsewhere are prepackaged one brought on board and cooked on the ship.  There was a world of difference between the two.  Sometimes, I would go to the Dive In and just order the fries. The fries are so crunchy and well seasoned.   It was worth it.
