Review summary

My husband and I were very pleasantly surprised by the atmosphere on this ship.  We usually cruise on the larger ships (Oasis and Freedom class), but we decided to take a quick 4-night cruise on the Enchantment of the Seas for my birthday.  

First of all, the Cruise Director, Marc, is fantastic.  He's the best of all the cruise directors I've met on my previous five cruises.  He's very professional while making sure that everyone has a great time.  He also has a fantastic sense of humor.  This feeling extended out to all the entertainment crew, which then extended out to most of the passengers.  The entertainment crew did a GREAT job of including the passengers in all the FuN. Because this ship is a little smaller than we're used to, we were floored by how friendly everyone was, maybe because we kept running into many of the same people.  This ship may not have all the "bells and whistles" of the larger ships, but the intimacy and friendliness more than made up for it.  I would definitely sail on Enchantment of the Seas again. 

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Food was good, but not great (except for the lamb shank and the Key Lime Pie, which were PHENOMENAL! The dining room is noisy, so we really enjoyed our special night at the elegant and quiet Chops.

Ship tip

The Viking Lounge is a great place to go for a quiet drink. Avoid the Art Auction.....it's "hokey".

Ports of call

Nassau, Bahamas

Señor Frogs is a fun place for lunch. Great entertainment. Be sure to get a coupon for free nachos from Melanie, the Cruise Shopping Director

Hi we went on the Enchantment 3 months ago. We sail with the Oasis and Allure the big ships 6 times. Awesome ships, going again on the Oasis again August 2016. But we needed a get away and the Enchant filled our needs. Mark was fabulous, the shows were great. It was a glorious 4 days. The service excellent. Booked the enchant for 4 days in February 2016 before we got off.

Marc is definitely a highlight of an Enchantment cruise! He'll be missed when he retires in 2016!
