jag82177 Posted June 23, 2023 #1 Share Posted June 23, 2023 How good is the AC on Enchanted (and other Royal-class ships)? We like to sleep below 70 degrees, but know that the cabin’s AC will be working hard to combat the extremely high temperatures in the Mediterranean this summer. We recently sailed on VV and had to keep curtains closed to cool the cabin, and Celebrity Summit’s AC was also very slow to cool, so wondering what to expect this summer.

gsmith2424 Posted June 23, 2023 #2 Share Posted June 23, 2023 We were on Sky (another Royal class ship) back in December on a Western Caribbean and had no issue with AC in the room. The rest of the ship was pretty comfortable too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Rick&Jeannie Posted June 23, 2023 #3 Share Posted June 23, 2023 Just off the Sky about 4 weeks back...no issues with AC. In fact, we had it down to about 68 (F) at times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissP22 Posted June 23, 2023 #4 Share Posted June 23, 2023 It was working fairly well in the Caribbean although we didn't set it below 70 degrees at any time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FritzG Posted June 24, 2023 #5 Share Posted June 24, 2023 We've sailed on Enchanted Caribbean cruises in February for the last 3 years, and the a.c. was the best we've had on any ship. I'm sure it was at least 70 or cooler. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckeye10640 Posted June 24, 2023 #6 Share Posted June 24, 2023 We have sailed Carribean twice in balcony rooms on Enchanted. We always keep the temp as low as it will go and keep the curtains closed when we are not in the room. Mostly it stayed comfortable. I always travel with a small packable fan, though, just in case. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were onboard recently and there were no problems with the AC in our cabin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ldubs Posted June 24, 2023 #8 Share Posted June 24, 2023 We were on Enchanted in the Med this past April. No issues with the A/C, but I should add it wasn't scorching hot outside. The cabin temp was comfortable and we didn't have the thermostat bottomed out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissP22 Posted June 25, 2023 #9 Share Posted June 25, 2023 Many of the stories people read about AC that doesn't work properly are usually on the older class ships. Every since the introduction of the Royal class, the AC problems have been minimal, from the posts I've read. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtnesterz Posted June 25, 2023 #10 Share Posted June 25, 2023 We prefer to sleep cool as well. Some don't know this, But you can request a sheet and blanket instead of the duvet from your steward. To us, that Princess foam mattress sleeps hot and the duvet makes it worse. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never understood the reasoning on providing a heavy duvet in warm climates. Alaska maybe, but not in the Caribbean. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mith Posted June 25, 2023 #13 Share Posted June 25, 2023 My experience is most ships usually only have issues in the hot and humid climates when opened up all day for port days or if too many passengers leave their balcony doors open. When the ships are closed up and sailing the AC catches up pretty fast. The newer ships have less issues with temp control than the older ones. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can recall many cabins when we sailed on the older ships that AC problems. We NEVER had an incident on a Royal class ship yet and all our trips have been in the warm Caribbean. I attribute it to each cabin having it's own AC system in addition to the ships central AC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
