Review summary

The Majesty of the Seas is one of the oldest and smallest in the RC fleet. The price seemed to reflect that. It did not have any balcony cabins that we could see. The interior was dated but well maintained. The Centrum (center of the ship) was small. Would have liked to see more seating for the events they had. I believe that when this ship was built if I'm not mistaken in 1991 the goal was for a relaxing cruise and it does give that, but it doesn't have any fun activities like water slides. The food and dining room service was very good. Would I go on this ship again? Probably not. Am I glad I did? Yes, for the price it was a good value. Will I ever go on RC again? Absolutely. You can't judge a cruise line by one ship. By far we have found that RC is the best. We currently have an 11 day scheduled for March on Celebrity which is owned by RC.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Dated but pleasant.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

Hot tubs, only warm. Pools were nice.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

A couple of the shows were great (ie. comedy and ventriloquist). As compared to other RC shows we have seen was probably ok.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

All of the staff were really great. Can't say enough great things about them. A lot of them seemed to be very new, but they will learn.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5

Overall the ship seemed to be maintained really good except for deck 11, the pool deck. All of the windows were very dirty and the windows in the windjammer were dirty.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

Cabin 2109 (inside) was incredibly small as compared to other RC inside cabins we have been in. You had to go outside to change your mind. lol The closet was tiny, only one chair for vanity. It is what it is. Nothing can be done about that. It was very clean and it was only for a week.

Ship tip

The elevators on the back of the ship don't all go to all the floors. We would go to deck 7 and go outside and walk to the front on the deck.

Very happy that you enjoyed yoursekf so much, and understand that all cruises aren't alike but special in their own, way to bring differences to our vacations.If they were all the same I can't see any fun in that !

Glad you enjoyed it. We love the smaller ships and don’t need water slides, roller coasters or rock climbing to have a great time. For those that want more activities, there are larger ships.
