My partner and I have just returned from a 4 night cruise aboard Majesty Of The Seas. We only booked two weeks in advance and got a terrific bargain. The ship was fantastic and although fully booked not crowded at all. The check in at Miami was a pleasant experience (especially after hearing such bad reviews of the port) no queues, welcoming staff and straight on board. We had an inside cabin which was quite small but perfectly ample for a short cruise. The food and entertainment on board are excellent and it is very easy to find your way around the ship. The weather was warm but cloudy so sunbathing was out, but there was plenty to do on the ship after visiting the ports. The cruise went to Nassau, Cococay and Key West. We did a tour in Nassau at a nature reserve on a segway which was great fun and then got a taxi over to Atlantis for a look around $10 pp return from the port. We walked all around Key West from the dock to the southernmost point, stopping at Hemingway House, the lighthouse and the Butterfly House along the way, no need to do an organised tour as it is so small, so did the Conch Train Tour instead. We booked a cruise only and added a few nights in Miami as well so it made a great holiday.

| Quality of Food |  |
| We ate in the Windjammer each night as we prefer a casual style of eating and found the food to be varied each day and excellent quality. | | Entertainment |  |
| We enjoyed the comedian show and saw the production show on the last night | | Shore Excursions |  |
| The best excursion is the segway tour at a nature reserve in Nassau, these machines are amazing and very simple to ride, some people may be put off by thinking they are difficult to master but I urge everyone to try a segway at least once, they are addictive, we have been on a segway a few times on past holidays and always have a great time. | | Staff |  |
| All the staff are friendly and helpful and work very hard to give everybody a great holiday. We can't thank them enough. | | Children's Facilities | n/a |
| | Onboard Activities |  |
| There is so much choice it is impossible to fit in all that you would like to do, with the port visits, meals, casino, port and shopping meetings - which are very useful, shows etc. | | Cabins |  |
| The cabin was a little smaller than on Navigator but still ample for a short cruise. | | Overall Rating |  |
