🤫 Insider Tips & Hidden Gems on the Enchanted Princess
Want to cruise like a pro? Here are a few secrets most first-time passengers miss when sailing on the Enchanted Princess:
1. Skip the Buffet on Embarkation Day
When you first board the ship, the World Fresh Marketplace (the buffet) will be incredibly crowded. Instead, head straight to Gigi’s Pizzeria or the Main Dining Room (check the app for which one is open). You can sit down, relax, and be served a fantastic welcome meal without fighting the crowds.
2. The Best Unobstructed Views
Because the Promenade deck on Royal-class ships does not wrap all the way around, finding that perfect forward or aft view takes a little navigating. For the ultimate sailaway experience or to watch other ships maneuvering in port, head up to Deck 16 (Sun Deck) aft, just above the Wake View Pool. It offers fantastic, sweeping views that are usually much less crowded than the main pool areas.
3. The Secret to 24/7 Snacks
If you are an early riser or need a late-night bite, the International Café in the Piazza is open 24 hours a day. The specialty coffees cost extra, but the pastries, sandwiches, and desserts in the display case are entirely free. It is the best spot on the ship for a quiet 6:00 AM breakfast.
4. Maximize the OceanMedallion
Don't just use the Medallion app to unlock your door. You can use the OceanNow® feature to order drinks, pizza, or extra towels to exactly where you are sitting. The crew will find you using the Medallion's location tracking—even if you are in the middle of the Princess Theater waiting for a show to start.
5. Find the Free Saunas
While the Enclave (the thermal suite in the Lotus Spa) requires a paid pass, many guests do not realize there are complimentary saunas and steam rooms located inside the men's and women's locker rooms in the fitness center.
6. The Gelato Hack
Gelato (located in the Piazza) is a paid specialty item, but if you have a Princess Plus or Princess Premier beverage package, premium desserts are included. You can grab artisanal gelato or a massive sundae at no extra out-of-pocket cost.
