Annette, <BR>WE are going on Enchantment of the Seas April 30th. I'll let you know. WE are staying the day before at Marriott Marina and after the trip at Marriott Harbor Beach. We got good prices on hotels thru 123hotels.net. I research a lot before booking. The Marrott Marina is real close to Port Everglades. That is why we picked that hotel before the cruise. It is not on the beach but they offer a shuttel to the Marriott Harbor Beach. The regular room rate when calling the hotel for the Marriott Harbor was $299.00. We reserved the same room for $109.00. Please feel free to e-mail me direct if you have any other questions. When are you going on your cruise? Have bought the vidio of our ship. Looks GREAT!!!

Hi Annette, <BR> <BR>My husband and I travelled on the Enchantment last November. We had such a great time. We were supposed to cruise the Eastern Carribean, but ended up cruising the Western because a tropical storm took a very strange turn... no problem, mon. We didn't care, just as long as the weather was sunny, the seas were calm, and we were on vacation! The ship is beautiful and clean. Every day we saw crew washing, polishing, and maintaining the beauty of the ship. Our cabin was great - we were upgraded to a balcony. Need I say more?!? The food was good (not gourmet - but good). If for some reason, you don't like your selection, ask for a different one. The crew and staff were very attentive, fun, and friendly. Embarkment and disembarkment was quick and smooth... I would sail the Enchantment again in a heart beat. I hope you have as many good memories as we do about that ship. I also hope you have table mates as wonderful as ours were. We all still keep in touch! Happy cruising!

Thanks Angie, Steve & Sharon!!! <BR>We will be going Western again ...in Jan.2001. It's a big group that goes every two years...I'm really excited about this ship PLUS the kids are going this time <BR>Angie...please let me know about your trip when you return. <BR>
