Jmariehyman Posted February 21, 2020 Report Share Posted February 21, 2020 Looking for information on Enchantment of the Seas ship? Thinking about booking Canada/New England cruise from Baltimore next year. What shape or condition is the ship in! I know she's an older ship, but is she clean and well maintained? Been seeing comments that she's really rusty. Any information or tips much appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spursfreak21 Posted February 21, 2020 Report Share Posted February 21, 2020 There are definitely some signs of her age showing. I would say that most of that are on the exterior of the ship. Most of the interior areas are fine. You wouldn’t notice it unless you were looking with a fine tooth comb. Obviously there’s less of the flashy type of things to do like water slides and specialty restaurants. I sailed on her last July and will be on her again this coming June. She’s a great ship and I had a great experience. pamici and Jmariehyman 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1Texansgo Posted February 21, 2020 Report Share Posted February 21, 2020 We sailed on her out of Galveston in January for 5 days and are booked for a 7 day cruise in September to the Eastern Caribbean. I really enjoyed sailing on Enchantment. The layout of the ship was very good IMO and the ship's interior was quite attractive. The exterior does show signs of age although the crew was painting at every port. Specialty dining is limited but we enjoyed the MDR, Entertainment, ship layout and decor and thought the crew was quite hospitable. That is why we have already booked her again for September. I would not hesitate to book Enchantment if the price and itinerary are what you are looking for. pamici and Jmariehyman 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chadster Posted February 21, 2020 Report Share Posted February 21, 2020 I'll try to remember to post a not-so-live blog of my Canada/New England cruise from Baltimore in May; of course, I'll be on Enchantment's sister ship, Grandeur, but since they're both Vision-class, I'm guessing it'll be a comparable experience. And I've definitely heard good things about "Lady G". pamici 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoyalGreek Posted February 21, 2020 Report Share Posted February 21, 2020 Enchantment is a Vision Class, but she stands apart from the others. Some time ago the ship was sent to dry dock for a refurbishment. During that time the ship was CUT IN HALF. A new 90' section was added in the middle of the ship. You will notice on the pool deck a "flying bridge' on both sides of the ship. Inside the Centrum in different than the others. They also added a Boleros Lounge. She is a great ship and the one we have sailed on the most. Do not hesitate to book her!! Here is a video I made while on board. https://youtu.be/J1whgEVsvq0 Here is the video of the ship cut in half in dry dock https://youtu.be/lKDA8GgBSIM pamici, Chadster and Jmariehyman 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chadster Posted February 22, 2020 Report Share Posted February 22, 2020 Ahhhhh! I just saw the Oasis Bar. I must sail Enchantment when she takes up station here in Maryland next year! And @RoyalGreek, your video was FANTASTIC! At the beginning, I was half-expecting my mom to tell me it was time for bed and to not sit so close to the TV! pamici 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoyalGreek Posted February 22, 2020 Report Share Posted February 22, 2020 Thanks Chadster. I love making those videos after some of our cruises. I like to change it up a little bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pamici Posted February 25, 2020 Report Share Posted February 25, 2020 We sail out on Monday on the Enchantment and I am so ready I could die. I started a pre-cruise live blog on here so I could obsess over it easier (eek, sorry about the extreme close up ...) Thank you for the videos - I can't get enough of them! Oh, and please do post all about your Canada/New England trip - how gorgeous does that sound?! WAAAYTOOO and Chadster 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
