These are the scotch and whiskey selections from the Enchanted Princess last year. This is from the Crooners and Take Five drink menus and each had the same selection. Good Spirits will also have the same selection.

We have never done a B2B before and I didn't originally see anything indicating a future cruise we have booked counted as a B2B (Sky Princess 14 day Caribbean East/West Adventurer). It was listed as a single cruise and we have just one booking number. There are no repeat ports during the cruise, aside from returning to Fort Lauderdale. I do see that our cruise is available as separate 7 day cruises, which is what I thought you would have to book individually to qualify for the B2B. It wasn't until I happened to look at my Captain's Circle "cruise history" that I noticed that it showed 2 cruise credits for this booking (and we do not have a suite booked, only Reserve Collection Mini). We will be Elite by this cruise, so I assume we will receive 2 mini bar setups? I also wondered about our CCL stock benefit - with only one booking number how would we receive the additional OBC that I have seen talked about in another post?

We were in L107 on the Enchanted Princess for a trans-Atlantic last April. As Sea Hag said earlier, the room layout with the separate sleeping area and forward facing window is great! The wrap around balcony is huge (though not as big as the massive size of the Marina deck versions) and we were able to spend about half our days at sea out there relaxing (depends on wind direction). Our balcony already had two of the standard pool loungers in addition to the typical chairs and ottomans. A very quiet location at the front of the ship and easy access to the pools, bars, grills, and buffet on the same level. We have M108 reserved on the Discovery for an upcoming Inside Passage cruise. These pics are from the Enchanted L107 cabin.

You definitely lost your bet, as the Sky Suites (at least on the Enchanted Princess) have nice spotting scopes instead of traditional telescopes. Spotting scopes are excellent for daytime observations of wildlife and other distant features. The model Princess provides is a Gosky and retails for $400 (without the tripod).

Dolphin and Baja are the only aft Penthouse Suites with a balcony overhang. Dolphin has the biggest overall balcony size, with Caribe and Aloha having the narrowest balconies. Attached, is a profile picture of the Regal Princess (sister ship to Royal) taken from our aft Baja suite balcony on the Enchanted Princess. Decks in order from the bottom up: Emerald, Dolphin, Caribe, Baja, Aloha, Riviera, Marina.

There was the quiet room across from the entrance to the Enclave and the couple of times I visited I had it to myself. The Amalfi dining room was closed due to low passenger count and we ate in Club Class in the Capri. The only difference I could see between Capri (deck 6 midship) and Santorini dining rooms (deck 5 midship) was the color scheme. The Chef’s Table Lumiere was in Amalfi and not open.

We used it on the Enchanted for a two week Transatlantic back in April. As you might imagine, it was fairly busy on the sea days but mostly quiet on port days. The biggest problem was similar to the pool decks with people saving the stone heat loungers with towels or clothes, when there are explicit instructions posted to the contrary. Enjoyed the wet and dry saunas and the spacious whirlpool. Only option was to reserve for length of cruise and we had the extra obc to use.

Not sure what cabins on the Carib deck you are asking about. The PH suites on Riviera are the ones adjacent to the concierge lounge. The lounge was wonderful but those Riviera cabins are definitely smaller (especially the balconies) than the aft suites. The suite manager on the Enchanted was kind enough to let us tour all of the different suite categories (including Sky Suite), since the ship was barely 50% full. We are on the Discovery Princess’s first Alaska cruise of the season next April 30th and she is basically a duplicate of the Enchanted.

Dolphin and Baja are the only decks with an overhang and Dolphin has the largest aft balcony along with the "Owners Suites" on Emerald deck (which have no cover). We stayed in Baja 735 on Enchanted and the balcony was perfect! Here is a short video clip showing our balcony and another pic looking at the profile of the aft balconies on the Regal Princess.

Just off the Caribbean Princess and (with the Princess Plus Package) my wife was not charged extra for the Espresso Martini in the Wheelhouse Bar. The Tropitini was still available in Crooners. I'm attaching Crooners menu from the Enchanted back in April before the addition of the "Premier" package, so some prices may have changed. If anyone is interested, I have pdf menus of most every venue on the Enchanted Princess. Crooners menu.pdf

Yes, having been on the Enchanted twice in the last 6 months, I can tell you that Angry Orchard is available throughout the ship. You can always order it through the Medallion Class app wherever you are on the ship. You can actually get Strongbow cider on draft at the Salty Dog Gastropub, if interested.
