Editorial Summary

The creator provides a comprehensive review of the Enchanted Princess following two Caribbean cruises. He highlights the ship as a successful evolution of the Royal Class, noting that it achieves a better balance of venues for dining, socializing, and live music compared to its predecessors. Key strengths include the diverse dining options, such as the immersive 360 Mediterranean restaurant, and high-quality entertainment featuring three full-scale production shows. The creator also praises the amenities, specifically the thermal suite and the luxurious sanctuary sund deck. However, he notes several drawbacks, including a crowded and smoky casino that lacks sufficient non-smoking areas, inconsistent nightlife quality, and a somewhat confusing ship layout. He also mentions minor issues with the mobile app and the small size of some cabin balconies. Ultimately, the creator concludes that the ship is highly recommended for most travelers, though it may not suit those seeking a younger crowd or a completely smoke-free environment.

Creator's Key Takeaways

Enchanted princess is one of the newer ships in the princess Fleet and after being on board for two Caribbean cruises it's now one of my favorites

I was really impressed with Enchanted and it's now one of my favorite princess ships

I would highly recommend these rooms since they're so close to all the action on the Leo deck and the balconies were much bigger with higher ceilings than a regular balcony

360 has a hefty cover charge of $140 but it's worth it if your budget allows and you want a real wow experience

Creator's Tips & Advice

Start the conversation with guest relations earlier rather than later in the cruise if you think you might want or need to relocate
If you enjoy the beach and want to maximize your time on the island, hang out by the beach with the live band and wait until the lineups have cleared
For a quieter place to get a drink on the upper decks, recommend the retreat pool bar on Deck 17

Noise from neighboring familiesIf you think you might want or need to relocate, start the conversation with guest relations earlier rather than later in the cruise
Finding spots near the poolThere are more than enough loungers spread across the two resort decks, and the two large main pools were never too crowded
