We choose this cruise for its Monday through Friday dates that worked with our schedule. I did read the review prior to making plans, so I do agree with most of the previous review in regards to food, and the ship is older. The ship is smaller and outdated of which I hope RCL does pay attention and make plans to revisit their smaller older ships with make-overs. With a smaller ship, you do get fewer options regarding on ship activities. The food was average. The coffee in the main dinning room is not strong, when we asked why one young lady attendant said its because they believe "people don't want it strong in the morning." I noticed three staples items everynight, mash potato, Cesar salad creme brule (spelling, not sure). Lobster used to served on one of the nights but now there's a charge. Only two specialty dining options Chef's table or Chops grille. Of course, I'm comparing our first RCL on Allure of the seas to Enchantment. Boarding is better on a weekday than a weekend. Getting off was easier with no Customs to go through on the last day. However, the shows, cast, the Cruise director, plus the crew made up for all else.They were very friendly and attentive, fun and engaging. We did miss out on the Coco Key private island on Wednesday due to rough seas. But we made the most of that day at sea. Being our first to Key West, it was neat to have rented bikes and explore KW on our own, conveniently located right off the ship. This is just a nugget of information for moms out there with kiddos our kiddos age.I noticed that this ship would not have been good for our kids as far as activities. They had one rock climbing wall of which was not open for most of the cruise due to wind and weather, I did not see things on Enchantment that were on the Allure, Oasis or the newer out of the dockyard. Again, with my observation and slight experience, bigger and newer would accommodate my 16,14 and 6-year-old had we cruised with them. I hope this small bit of information helps :) Happy cruising.
