Review summary

25th anniversary present to my wife. Neither overjoyed with the experience. Had fun, but could have been a whole lot better.

Embarkation

3 out of 5
Getting through the stations to get on the ship was easy enough. Luggage was delivered quick enough, but the people who inspect the contents are complete, uncaring assholes. my bale on my fishing rod had been opened and the line cascaded off the spool into a gigantic bird's nest. Totally unsalvageable. Had to cut it all off and respool new line. Clothes looked like they had been pulled out and thrown back in.

Ship experiences

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The lady that took care of our room could not have been more courteous. Our room was immaculate every day. All others we met were extremely nice. Our waiters at main dining, Wvladislav and Vishnu could not have provided us with better service or have been more friendly.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Easy enough to get around. Everything was sparkly clean.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Clean as a cop's whistle. Just enough room for two. Very comfortable bed. Good water pressure. The room was the most pleasant thing about the trip.

Ship tip

Go somewhere else other than Nassau. Having locals up in my face every three feet hawking taxi's, hair braiding, etc., got old real quick. The town consists of bars, liquor stores, gift shops and jewelry stores.

Ports of call

Port Canaveral, Florida

3 out of 5
We live 40 miles away. With being so close, no need to visit during cruise.

Nassau, Bahamas

3 out of 5
Not much. Hawkers made visiting this port unpleasant.

Cococay (Cruise Line's Private Island)

3 out of 5
Half of the island was closed due to construction including the nature trail. Before the trip, I asked a RCCL rep if fishing was ok to do. Upon arrival was told 2 times that fishing was not allowed. One even wanted to confiscate my rod for the day. Wasn't happening. With my wife unable to partake in water activities other than swimming, fishing was to be our only option. Very disappointing place, especially with watching all the game fish in the water.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
Wasn't too hateful or long to get back to land. At least the people were friendly and helpful.

Sounds like your underwhelming came from security and not the experience on the ship. well hope you have a better experience next time.

Majesty is a bit old and showing it, but still a great ship

Next time, take her on either Oasis, or Harmony. Any one of the Oasis class ships are great for a romantic getaway, & perfect for an anniversary.
