Traveled with children

We can't remember the names of a few of them, but want you to know they were excellent. Our stateroom attendant made our tiny interior stateroom feel just as luxurious and important as any huge expensive suite. We ate at Johnny Rocket's one night for dinner and the female waitress made the experience feel special, way more so than any casual dinning in the states. Our waiter Francisco and Asst waiter Mohit in the main dinning room were very attentive. The fact that they remembered our names and usual preferences was a very nice touch. Majesty was not a huge ship and she lacked a few bells and whistles, but the staff made up for any shortcomings.

Our only "complaint" is that during they day, there was not a lot to do. This was especially true for the Teen program. We opted out of the VOOM internet, so having two bored teenagers around during the day was kind of a bummer. At night the program was great, the kids absolutely loved it.

As far as the destinations, we fell in love with Coco Cay. It was well maintained and just gorgeous. It was the picturesque Caribbean island we all dream of. Also, the lunch was spectacular. Nassau was just down-right disappointing. We didn't book an excursion, so we planned on just walking around near the port. We did the same in Cozumel last year and it was awesome, so we figured we could do the same. As soon as we entered the check-in on the island, we saw a security guard hauling a man away - no big deal, things happen. Then as we walked through the "market" inside the port things got worse. The locals were in our faces, literally grabbing our arms, and harassing us to purchase this or that. Outside the port, the harassment got worse. There is no security or law enforcement, so wee were on our own. One man on the sidewalk put his arm around my 14 year old daughter and said "hey sexy, come see this"! She was wearing a t-shirt and jeans, she looked nothing like an adult. We never made it more than a quarter mile away from the port before we decided to get back to the ship. Nassau just didn't feel safe.

TINY, but it has everything you need. The shower was actually a good size. The A/C was nice and cold. We didn't hear any bumps in the night above us.
