Front Street's duty-free diamond specialist with exclusive designs near the cruise port
Why Go
Majesty Jewelers commands a prime position on Front Street at number 46, putting it in the path of every cruise passenger walking the duty-free shopping strip. The focus on GIA-certified diamonds, exclusive designs, and fine jewelry justifies the premium location. If you know what you're looking for in a diamond — or want someone knowledgeable to guide you — Majesty delivers the expertise alongside genuine duty-free savings.
The Experience
The shop is professional and well-presented with display cases organized to show off the diamond, gemstone, and gold collections to their best advantage. GIA-certified diamonds are the centerpiece, with a range of cuts, clarity grades, and sizes. Engagement rings and wedding bands draw couples who time their St. Maarten vacation around a jewelry purchase. Luxury watches from international brands fill the remaining cases. The staff can walk you through GIA grading in detail, making the shopping process educational as well as transactional. Custom design is available for those who want something beyond what's on display.
What to Try
Focus on the exclusive designs that you won't find duplicated at every other store on the street — Majesty invests in unique pieces that justify the visit. Compare their GIA-certified loose diamonds with other shops on Front Street to appreciate the difference that proper certification makes. The engagement ring selection is particularly strong.
Insider Tip
Visit in the morning before the cruise ships' passengers fill Front Street — you'll get unhurried service and the staff can dedicate proper time to showing you the collection. If you're making a significant purchase, negotiate respectfully — Front Street jewelers have some flexibility, especially on quieter sales days. Take the GIA certificate number and verify it online before you leave the store.
