Review summary

Enchantment is the smallest and oldest of the RC fleet, but the crew works hard to give guests a great experience. It lacks the features of newer ships but is still a fun cruise. I would not recommend taking younger kids as there is not a lot for them to do.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

Main dining room was fantastic! Buffet food is pretty good, too. Park cafe is very disappointing- after 8:30 it’s the only thing open and we were never able to get anything to eat there (A line of 12 people and only two slices of pizza to offer).

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

Ship definitely shows it’s age in its facilities. Small pools and kids splash pad. Trampoline was shown on site but we did not see it onboard.

Entertainment

4 out of 5

Children's Programs

3 out of 5

This ship does not have any of the upgraded children’s facilities advertised. It’s just a room with toys, books, and a tv that is always on. The staff worked hard to keep kids entertained but my kids were disappointed that it didn’t have all the interesting things shown online.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Staff and service are INCREDIBLE. They are all kind and friendly. They make you feel like family.

Thanks for the review. I'm probably one of the few people that like a smaller ship.

I have found that sometimes Park Cafe is short staffed late evening.
