NORALUJV.TXT lists the following:

 xaufri (find-good experience) x1 = lifri1 (experience) = xamgu2 (find
good), x2 = lifri2 (happening)  = xamgu1 (good), x3 = xamgu3 (goodness
standard)

 zanfri (favor experience) x1 = lifri1 (experience) = zabna3 (favor),
x2 = lifri2 (happening)


(and these are currently the only entries for 'enjoy' at jbovlaste.)

For the typical usage of 'enjoy' in english, it seems to me that the
valsi listed by Robin is far more appropriate than either of the
above.

OTOH, if you wanted to express eg 'I enjoy X greatly', perhaps xaufri
would be more appropriate. As in "mi xaufri le nu bajra fi pidu'e"  --
"I enjoy [the act of] running, too much."
