SelfCheckoutGuy Posted August 29, 2013 #1 Share Posted August 29, 2013 So I am getting ready to board the Enchantment in 11 days. I was on her, but it's been 14 years ago, so I have forgotten many things about her. What is your favorite secret place, or little know fact about Enchantment of the Seas. What is a MUST do? What is the first thing I should find or do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cjdixon4 Posted August 29, 2013 #5 Share Posted August 29, 2013 If you enjoy a good party atmosphere at sailaway, make certain that you hit the pool deck. The drinks, music, dancing, and people-watching are so much fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a great tip and one I will be taking advantage of on my cruise on Enchantment in October. The WJ was a zoo that first day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erntrish Posted August 29, 2013 #11 Share Posted August 29, 2013 We loved Bolero's. While not a "secret," per se, it was very fun, with great music and a wonderful bar staff (albeit our trip on EN was several years ago!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mermaidgal Posted August 29, 2013 #13 Share Posted August 29, 2013 I will be on this same cruise in 11 days with my brother and I was on it in May! I don't think the Park Cafe is open the first day.

Rare lazydayz Posted September 3, 2013 #15 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Just off the Enchantment today. Park Cafe was open for lunch on boarding day. Good roast beef sandwiches, soups and tuna melts. Very nice salad bar. We also enjoyed the dining room and Chops. Ship is very nice. It has an ultra modern feel, with a clean and airy design.

Pumbaamd Posted September 3, 2013 #16 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Park Café is open the first day. Don't even think about the WJ Zoo, you'll have plenty of time to go there later. Go straight to Park Café. Most new guests don't know it's there. It can get warm in there (it is the solarium), dine on the shady side. Ask about the soup. They have an excellent cream of potato soup. Rick and Deirdra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villauk Posted September 3, 2013 #19 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Do they have any desserts at the Park Cafe? Yes, on the right-hand side cabinet. We really enjoyed breakfast in the Park Cafe:an assortment of different pots of fruit, yoghurts, cereals, made to order bagels with a choice of fillings, a mixture of different filled muffins etc. The oats served here were the hottest on the ship ;). And the best bit: no fighting for tables ;). A lovely relaxed atmosphere to the start the day with added wonderful service :). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoneStarJeffe Posted September 3, 2013 #20 Share Posted September 3, 2013 I really enjoyed the cake decorating contest. Also the Schooner piano bar. And overall, the smaller size of the ship. Less walking to get where you want to go. Have a great trip! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunnysavannah Posted September 3, 2013 #21 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Great thread! We're looking forward to our first time on her in Oct.! On the first day, can we take our kids to Park Cafe? I know it's connected to the Solarium, but I don't know how close. The kids will be 9-11 and we would love to skip the WJ on embarkation, but I don't want to take them in there if it wouldn't be acceptable. Are there any other little places that are great? Little alcoves, spots not to miss, etc. We've never sailed Vision class, so any Vision class tips would be great, too.

JosieCat-MN Posted September 3, 2013 #23 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Glad to hear the Park Cafe is open on the first day. I've only been on one cruise, and we didn't really discover it until our last day as the Windjammer wasn't open for lunch and we weren't dressed for the MDR. I do plan to head there on the first day of my second cruise in October. Sounds like I'll have to give breakfast a try there as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrFunInTheSun Posted September 3, 2013 #24 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Kids are allowed to go to Park Cafe, no matter where it is on the ship. On that note, late night though when that is when of few venues open you will see lots of kids in there on the right side of solarium eating pizza and stuff. I only witnessed this late night and around times kids clubs closed. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk. Please excuse any typographical errors.

Glad to hear that, perhaps when I was on in May they were doing some maintenance! I rushed down there for my first of many roast beef sandwiches and they were closed. That's where I'll be heading next Monday when I get on, Yummo! Sent using the Cruise Critic forums app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
