This is our 3rd cruise vacation. Our First was Adventure of the Seas, Second was a tiny ship with Celebrity- the Zenith, which I believe is no longer in the fleet, but we LOVED it. This cruise on the Majesty put us on a ship that was sized between the other 2 ships we had been on. The other cruises were 7 night sailings, so this was our first shorter cruise and from reading cruise critics boards I was having mixed reviews on what to expect from the crowd the cruise draws.

Our arrival to Florida was by air - arrangements made BY Royal Caribbean, which I would probably not do again. More so because I know I paid more, and the reason I did it was because the agent convinced me that it was a huge risk to do the plans myself in case of plane delays, etc. The flights were such that we had to leave our home at 3:45AM to go to the airport. We had a layover in Atlanta and our flight arrived to Fort Lauderdale at 1:30 or so. From there we were to take the bus transport to the pier in Miami. The bus was not quick for us, they kept us waiting with a small group of people for a bus for almost an hour. However I did like not having to worry about getting myself there! Once the bus showed up it was a seamless and easy embarkation. We were on the ship within 20 minutes of getting off the bus. We had all our documents in hand including our set sail paper.

Once on the ship we went to find the Windjammer, it was about 3pm and we were starving! It was crowded, as expected, although with a little patience it was fine, we waited and got a table to sit at and all our food was hot, and it tasted great. I read many mixed reviews about Windjammer food on this ship. I'm still puzzled by this because we ate lunch, breakfast three times, and afternoon snack here and always had hot food, that tasted fine. AND there is a ton of selection. I don't see how anyone couldn't find MANY things that appeal to them. It is not gourmet fare, but it isn't cafeteria quality either - I found it to be completely edible, good hot food. We never tried Sorrento's or the Deli because we were happy with what was offered at the Windjammer.

Cabin Review

Ocean View Stateroom

Cabin G

Cabin 3536- small closet, but great shelves in there to hold a lot. TINY bathroom, but adequate for short cruise and 2 people. How many other places can you sit on the toilet while brushing your teeth if you wanted? Tiny shower, but for short tiny me, it was fine. A larger person would not like it. Tiny room, but who cares on a 3 night cruise. No sitting area, just a vanity with a chair and the beds. Nice location- quiet, and a comfortable room.
