Enchanted Princess Main Dining Rooms

[Cruisen Elf]

Can anyone recommend which main dining room to select on Enchanted Princess?  I have never had a choice before, and can't find any info or pictures about the different dining rooms on the Princess website.  Thanks in advance for any info you can provide!

Capri, Deck 5 midship, is less congested and they like same table / same waiter / say 'hi' to Miguelito and Julia!!

When I attempted to book our dining times on the Enchanted, the App would only let me book the Amalfi. I tried agaim by deleting everything, but still got the Amalfi. So, I dropped a few nights in the MDR since we would be in port quite late, and will hit the buffet instead. Not too happy with this App, even making a reservation for the CG,  didn't work out. A month after booking a confirmed time, the App now has us dining an hour later.

Oh yeah. I book with the MDR not the app. Not willing to jump through those hoops

We booked Amalfi in the app prior to sailing. However it didn't matter if you reserved or not as you still had to queue the same.  

 

The MDR's had the same menu every day so I would just go with the one with a shorter queue!

I prefer Capri but that one because of location seems to fill up first.

If you book each date  individually you may have better luck

We prefer Capri or Santorini (if available) over Amalfi. Amalfi always seems difficult to get to because you can't walk straight back on Fiesta Deck.

I think that Capri is Deck 6 midships......Santorini is on Deck 5

Why do you prefer MDR Deck 5?

[EllieinNJ]

I just booked the Santorini daily on the app.  Seems to be better located for my cabin near the aft.

Less crowded. Faster service. I requested to be at same table around 6:30 nightly & had table #87

And they actually held that exact table for you each night?

Surprising. 

Maybe it's because the ship wasn't sailing filled.

Definitely not full. Only 2400+ passengers. Also made a 4 person out of the next 2 tables for a group of 4. His entire section was repeat diners. Nice to just say hi to the host as I walk straight back

We also went mainly to the Santorini dining room (deck 5 midship) on our b2b sailings in August and September. In the Santorini dining room, they reserved a table in our preferred section every night. We usually went for dinner around 7:45 pm but some nights we told them we would be earlier or later and they always accommodated us. We never waited in line for Santorini (they told us to use the "exit" door if there was a line and to go directly to our section where a table would be ready for us, and one was always ready). The first of our B2B cruise was fully booked with the next one (the TA) only about 65% booked.

we just got off the ship on Oct 1st.  We would eat later between 7 to 7:30 and Capri would always have line ups.  So we would usually go to Santorini and Amalfi no line ups.  I preferred the Amalfi of the two because it felt brighter.  We never tried to book ahead because we never know when we will be ready for supper and like to not be on a tight schedule when travelling.  Hearing from others you would still wait in line if you reserved if it was a busy time.  Although if you decided to book in person the same table for the same time every night you seemed to just head in without lines.  We were a couple and did want to sit with others and this was a struggle to get them to do this for us.  Most nights they would try to encourage us to sit at a table for 2.  We would insist that we would like to try and sit with others and would be willing to wait and they would accommodate.  Always managed to have at least another couple for us.  This we enjoyed so much, so nice to meet people that to us is part of the experience.  Had breakfast in the Capri dining room the last morning because they close early before 9 am.  We had room service deliver coffee and yogurt every morning early and had wonderful service with that.  We did it the old fashion way of filling out the paper and hanging it from the door handle before bed every night.  They even called after the first morning to make sure we received everything.

Another vote for Santorini on Deck 5.  I called it the Hidden MDR because fewer people went to it. Shared a table with Ombud one evening on the recent TA.  🍷

Do you know the dinning room for Reserve Collection on Enchanted? I want to make reservations so I am able to have the same table every night. Thank  you! I cannot find this information anywhere.

You do not make reservations for Reserve Collection. It is supposed to be no wait, but at peak times, maybe a slight wait, this is the ‘perk’ of reserve collection. Usually deck 6, midship dining room,  port side.

It was the Capri MDR, Reserve Collection/Club Class entrance on the right side.  No reservations are needed, as @wallyjmentioned.
