Our goal was to see Cuba, and this ship went there! Majesty is the oldest and smallest of the RCCL, so keep your expectations in the 1980s then enjoy it all. My sister and I enjoyed the belly flop contest pool side, the love and marriage show in the theater, pool side movies, drinks at the Viking Lounge. Family karoeke (sp) was a joke, but we knew that before we went. The entertainer that we liked best was Jimmy Hopper - a voice for all types of sound, he made us feel like he was grateful for us listening and for having a venue to play. He was so humble and so gooood!!! Cuba excursions... well, expect propaganda. It's their country, its their communism, so don't get mad, just enjoy the tour! Foster town was a mosaic community, worth a LONG visit and buy some art, too. Look for a cute hotel called Hostal los frailes, which featured friars and religious art - very neat. Hotel Nationale had the best mohite. The cemetary was "all that and more". Enjoy that, look for Amelia Goyri for a weird story and a strange practice at her tomb.

We went to Key West - the pub tour was a blast. five pubs (one drink included, at each) that i'd never visited before, and comraderie along the way, and a tshirt to prove we were there.

My downside was the on board "champagne" art auction. I have bought art at these in the past, and never felt ripped off, However, this was slimy and poorly run; like RCCL put their rejected auctioneers in for this show. They gave one glass of champagne for a 3 hour show, and CLEARLy pushing one artist throughout the show and you had to stay to the end to see if you won, and they didn't have drink service at the table. They missed my bid a couple of times, and, well, overall, I'm done with Park West.

Cabin Review

Ocean View

Cabin 4N

Its a room. It has a good tv, its' small with maybe 3 foot by 4 foot window, and a sill that isn't big enough to sit in. The room doesn't have a sofa, just a dressing table/dresser, a chair, a glass mini-coffee table and the two twin beds. Don't expect much.. it's an old ship!
