maryln Posted July 14, 2008 #376 Share Posted July 14, 2008 I booked a stateroom on the starboard side for our 9/27 cruise. I'm wondering if port side would be better since I like to see what's going on on land. BUT, it's also nice to look out at the beautiful blue water & there's a possibility the Majesty might dock in the other direction. Radio and other Majesty cruisers, what are you thoughts on this?:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DDD06 Posted July 14, 2008 #378 Share Posted July 14, 2008 When we went through the cut on the old Crown back in 06their was lots of people standing there waving with him....We were told they are the locals welcoming us in... (I cant believe the old man is still doing this after we saw him in 06) Radio, does he still yell "WELCOME TO BERMUDA" "WELCOME"??? He sure does, as did many of the others that came out to watch the Majesty sail through the cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radio and other Majesty cruisers, what are you thoughts on this?:confused: We docked with the port side to shore. And, like iheart, any time I've seen her on the webcam, she's been docked with the port side to shore. Either way, the view will be nice. Besides, you probably won't spend much time in the stateroom while you're in Bermuda anyway. Have a great cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redskyy1 Posted July 14, 2008 #381 Share Posted July 14, 2008 We will be cruising in Oct on the Majesty and have an outside cabin on deck 8. I would like to know if the cabins are really really small. It really doesn't matter cause I'm going anyway but just curious. Thanks for any info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like to know if the cabins are really really small. It really doesn't matter cause I'm going anyway but just curious. Thanks for any info Do you have a superior OV or a regular OV? I think the superior is 139 sq. ft and the regular is 108 sq. ft. Although it was a different deck a regular OV could look like this.;) I'm 5"3". Friend and I made out fine, but I booked the larger one this time with DH.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really doesn't matter cause I'm going anyway but just curious. Thanks for any info We had a Deck 8 cabin last May. Yes, it's really, really small. If DH wanted to move around the cabin, I had to sit on my bed out of the way and vice versa. (However, I didn't think the bathroom was noticeably smaller than those on many other ships we've been on.) But, we didn't spend that much time in the cabin, so it wasn't a big deal. Enjoy!

redskyy1 Posted July 14, 2008 #384 Share Posted July 14, 2008 Thanks all for the cabin info. I'm still going to have a great time, just not in the cabin. Oh DH didn't like that LOL;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boston Birder Posted July 15, 2008 #389 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Wow, those artist's drawings of the new pier are great. Thanks! Radio, (or other Majesty cruisers), what sorts of books does the library aboard stock? Bestsellers (how old?) , classics, any sci fi? Trusting their library would help me travel light, but the NCL cruise consultants could tell me nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Radio Posted July 19, 2008 Author #391 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Radio, I so appreciated the quality of your video, even more now that we have returned from the 7/5 sailing. >SNIP<By the way, I smiled at the sloshing of the pool water in your video from the rough seas you had, which turned out to be worse than anything we experienced. >SNIP< Sue Thanks, Sue for the very nice comments ! I was able to post all of the Menu's, and Freestyle Daily's. . . . They can be viewed HERE. I sent many of my Cabin Photos to the CruiseStaterooms Web site, and they bought all of them ! I am so glad your cruise was great ! Thanks again for tuning in ! Radio :rolleyes: :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeniceves Posted July 20, 2008 #392 Share Posted July 20, 2008 Just got off the Majesty yesterday and we had a standard outside room and it was tiny with a capital T! It was worse because we had the beds pushed together and you had to get into bed by crawling from the bottom if you were on the left side (up against the wall on the side and the desk at the bottom) and if you were on the right side, you had to climb over the edge of the bed because the corner is up against the closet! If the beds are separated, you at least have a path between them. If you have a standard room, upgrade now if you can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeniceves Posted July 21, 2008 #395 Share Posted July 21, 2008 Sorry to hear that. . What deck were you on ! How was your cruise ? Radio :rolleyes: :rolleyes: Hi Radio! The trip was very nice. We were on deck 3 midship, which turned out to be a good spot as it was a very rough ride both to and from Bermuda. It was also very easy to walk to deck 5 for dinner, etc. We were delayed until Tues. so we had 3 full days on the ship and we were rocking! Many sick folks. But the weather was great..sunny and hot the entire time. We never hit bad weather as Bertha hit Mon. afternoon. We got in about 6:30 on Tues. (the pilot boarded the ship right outside our window!) and the weather in Bermuda was perfect for the two days. Hamilton turned out to be great as we were the only ship there and no one was in St. Georges until late afternoon on Tues. when the Dream came in so we had St. Georges to ourselves all day! We left in beautiful weather on Thursday and continued with the rough ride. Friday was the only calm day but by then I think everyone was used to the motion! I'm going to write my own review soon and I want you to know how much I enjoyed your posts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
