“Royal Caribbean Majesty of the Seas a good choice”

★★★★☆

written by on 23/05/2012

Did the 3-day cruise to the Bahamas on the Majesty of the Seas. The ship is nice, clean, rooms are clean, service for the most part is very good. We had a couple of issues our first night of dining but our waiters more than made up for the the next two nights. The bands sounded really good - the latin band, the rock/jazz band, calypso band, and the DJ-ing was great. If you want to dance, this is a good cruise because you'll have plenty of opportunity to dance until the wee hours. The food is plentiful and excellent. The shopping is surprisingly affordable, and there are some nice things that are not necessarily cruise souvenirs. And the drinks were not as expensive as I thought they'd be, which was nice because we wanted to drink all weekend! The comedy acts they brought in were amazing, hysterical. I think there was a good amount of activities to choose from, and the cruise director was EVERYWHERE doing everything, he was really involved, and that's always a good sign. Now for the not-that-amazing: the musical revue show had some talented singers and dancers, but the wardrobe and the choreography were either "meh" or, "What is THAT?" And their big pool party, the main event, had sound issues that should not have occurred - the speakers automatically shut off twice in about 15 minutes time because the volume was too loud and someone wasn't monitoring/adjusting it. And the pictures... there is only one discount deal where you pay a whopping $250 for all your pictures, otherwise you pay regular price for each one you buy. Not cool... But all in all it was a fun experience and I'd do it again.

“This is the third time I have cruised with RCI and...”

★★★★★

written by elliek on 03/11/2010

This is the third time I have cruised with RCI and Majesty was definitely the most fun - we were a party of 4 from Scotland aged 55-63 but I have to say that most of the guests were younger than us. We took our little cruise as part of our holiday in West Palm Beach. This was a 3 night cruise with two stops and when speaking to some of the crew we were told it is regularly booked by people who enjoy Salsa. Although we didn't know this when we booked, we were very pleasantly suprised and it was a joy to listen to the band and watch everyone on the dance floor. The staff also gave dance lessons. The entertainment on the ship was excellent. Cay Coco was also excellent and the crew worked very hard to make it so. The tiny island is owned by RCI and tenders ferry guests to and from the island every 15 minutes or so. There were a few tourist stalls and the island has various sunbathing areas with sunbeds, plenty of shaded areas, safe swimming, and parascending for those looking for excitement. The band from the ship played most of the day and there was a superb buffet lunch of barbecued meats, salads, huge amounts of fresh fruits and, of course, ice cream. There was also a bar for alcoholic and non alcoholic drinks. The stop at Nassau was a little bit of a disappointment because we arrived there on a Sunday and everything was closed but you could visit the Atlantis hotel complex if this was your thing. There were very few Europeans on this cruise; most of the guests were Latino-American who really knew how to enjoy themselves. I would defintely recommend this cruise as a taster or for those who enjoy latin-American music and dance.

“THIS WAS OUR VERY 1ST CRUISE, MY PARENTS HAVE SAID FOR...”

★★★★★

written by on 12/08/2010

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

“Firstly the good things - food as mentioned very good,...”

★★★☆☆

written by jooles83 on 13/08/2008

Firstly the good things - food as mentioned very good, plentiful, hot and a very wide choice in the restaurant and the windjammer. The restaurant 3 course meal each evening was delicious with a good interesting menu and well served. Especially enjoyed the formal night and the night when the waiters sang. ( Most people were dressed smartly for the formal night - some in full tux but most men in a smart shirt/trousers with a tie but no jacket, ladies in an array of dresses but there were still some who were in less formal clothes and ate in the buffet restaurant. Most who were dressed up were having the formal photos taken. (No one in shorts/t shirts though were allowed in the Captains cocktails)
The ports were good - Nassau was interesting. We did our own thing in the morning and walked to a small beach and snorkelled no one else there and it was brilliant (the beach is just past 'Senor Frog' and can be seen from the ship). In the afternoon went on the ferry to Paradise Island. Interesting commentary and enjoyed it, trip actually takes 20 minutes but didn't have long enough to see much of the Island. Beware - Bahamas time is very slow and laid back. We were told the ferry left every half hour - no one mentioned until on the ferry that this meant half an hour from the time the first customers got on for that trip and we only had 2 hours and 30 minutes of that was spent sitting on the ferry waiting.
Coco Cay - smashing place very laid back. The snorkelling there was brilliant saw loads of different fish, squid and starfishes well worth the wait for the equipment. Bit of a rip off though that the sea mattresses were $10! as they have a captive audience if you don't like snorkelling. The inflatable slide is expensive and again ought to be free IMO.
k Key West - A lovely place but so hot! Really pretty town. Most of the excursion places like the Believe it Or not! Hemingways house, Sloppy Joes etc are easily accessible by yourself and are not worth going on the boats excursions. The conch train, whilst interesting is rather long at an hour and a half as there is not that much to see. It is also easy to do by yourself as the station is on the main street. However, we did got on the Kayak excursion and it was ace! The instructors/guides were brilliant and we saw many different creatures and a 3ft nurse shark (baby) swam under my kayak! At Key west we had to go through USA immigration before we were allowed off the ship, it was a lot quicker than we thought it would be and relatively painless.
Bad points. Cabin very small - we were in the cheapest cabins but these were easily the smallest we have ever been in and we have been on five cruises with different companies. Our steward was not particularly helpful, no beach towels twice and when I asked for them I was told I had a 10-15 minute wait before she would get them. Didn't turn the beds down the first night (the others in our party had a different steward and they were very good). On the last night she gave us the wrong disembarkation letter and if I hadn't spotted this it would have cause a lot of problems with the luggage tags and the collection of our luggage.
Disembarkation- this was a nightmare, don't rush to get off the boat when your colour is called. We waited on the boat for quite a while as we have experienced this before but we have never waited so long for our luggage. The pick up areas are awful - no seats no drinks and an awful long wait - over 2 hours in the luggage area.
The shows - the comedians were very good but that was it not really a show. The first night was an Argentinian cowboy - very good but that was it ! On other boats the shows have been excellent with the Ships own singers and dancers. There were nothing else until a late night game show or competition or the disco which didn't start until very late. The first night had a movie under the stars - it was dreadful the screen was inflatable and was wonky and blowing around and no one we asked knew what the film was going to be until 2 minutes before the showing!
Climbing wall- not open when advertised to be
Did we enjoy our holiday? Of course we did holidays are what you make them and these complaints are mere niggles. However as I've said I have been on other cruise ship which are way superior in term of the shows and things to do on board eg. Sea Princess
Perhaps one of the larger RCI are better as this is apparently one of there smaller ships. My next cruise will be with the Princess cruise Line again as they are superior. IMO

Can you tell me exactly how long it took to clear customs in Key West. I have an excursion (booked independently) at 9:30 and don't know if I will make it in time.
<br/>Thanks

“Royal Caribbean, Majesty of The Seas - First time on...”

★★★★★

written by Dangeroos Dave on 17/06/2004

Royal Caribbean, Majesty of The Seas - First time on RCCL and would go back in a flash!

The Majesty of The Seas is an 88,000 ship with great facilities, good nosh, reasonable bar prices and generally good service.

We did find some of the lower-ranking restaurant staff a bit useless but they were honest and friendly with a smile, so you make allowances. Either seated or buffet venues offer a good range with vegetarians AND Atkins diets not forgoten, 24hr pizza and dogs also..., free room service.

At £300.00 for Nassau, Coco Key, Key West in a window superior cabin we challenge you to complain...! Like we found fecal matter in our loo upon arrival and one of the other cabins had paper / pee unflushed but already so impressed you just get on with it....

I'd fault only one thing but don't let this put you off, unsure but one item went missing from my case and my wife's between the hotel and ship. Another couple, he a cop from Newark, had to get his wife's case recovered from the bay by Coast Guard ... of course all clothes soaked but RCCL did clean them all.

All in all, better than Carnival for our tastes and great value destinations. Fast embarkation and dis-embarkation, $24.00 unlimited soda card (BYO spirits dudes), loose casino, fairly clean, ok entertainment, usual US immigration queue, fellow passengers nice from our experience, good holiday...

Generally speaking, book it...!!
