Review summary

Fun first cruise! There was so much going on. One thing I would change if I could would be able to order appetizer or snack type food at the bars.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Couldn't have been easier! We did get a notice that we missed the muster drill. We were early to the drill! Why don't they scan your Sea Pass instead of marking you off on a sheet?

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
Food wasn't great, but we didn't go hungry and we didn't get sick!

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Plenty to do! The pool is small. We did enjoy sitting outside in the evening. We really only got to enjoy the pool area during the day while in port in Cozumel because we came back after our excursion and most people were still in port. We did notice the times on the tv channel listing activities didn't always match the cruise compass, so we missed a few things.

Cabin / Stateroom

We reserved a spacious cabin. The bathroom could have been a little bigger, but the room was just big enough for the 2 of us. Lots of storage!

Ports of call

Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico

Went to Chacchoben and blue lagoon. Awesome tour of the ruins. We could have hung out at the lagoon all day! It was gorgeous, lunch was good, drinks kept coming, not a lot of people there, warm water...ahhhhh! Neat port area! Wish we had more time to hang out there.

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
We did the ATV tour to the jade cavern. So much fun!!! The port area was just obnoxious! So many people trying to get you to come shop in their store. Wouldn't take no for an answer, just kept nagging. We ended up going back to the ship after our excursion it was so bad.

Ft. Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida

5 out of 5
Only stayed here the night before the cruise. Airport is easy to get through.

Disembarkation

1 out of 5
Terrible! We carried our own bags off. We were told to go to floor 4 within a 30 minute time frame. All of the elevators to floor 4 were locked. Once we finally got an elevator that opened to floor 4, it was so crowded we couldn't get off of the elevator. We ended up waiting in one of the waiting areas until we heard an announcement that all groups had been called. Nothing was called in the room we were waiting in. We ended up getting off the ship over an hour after we were supposed to. I would like to think this happened because the ship was 3 hours late into the port due to a medical emergency and everyone was in a hurry to get off.

My very first cruise was on majesty as well, I think it’s a great ship to get acquainted to cruising life.
