Creator's Key Takeaways

this is our first time on Margarita vet C you know we've heard a lot but we have not been on any Margarita villet SE ship since there's only one till today we on the maiden voyage

this room is huge this is a Grand Terrace Suite and it's actually only the fifth time in 82 cruises we've stayed in a suite

this is already better than almost everything we got on Celebrity Ascent this is a nice bag I don't know Margaritaville you're coming in good

the drinks 10 out of 10 the drinks were good that Margarita matches Margarita V yeah the drinks were delicious

Creator's Tips & Advice

Walk to the port to get your steps in and arrive early for priority embarkation
Try the build-your-own taco bar at the Mexican Cantina for complimentary casual food
Expect the food to be fine but not exceptional for a budget-friendly cruise

Ship theming might be too heavy or tackyThe theming is heavy but in a good way, creating fun vibes throughout the ship
Food quality on a budget cruise lineFood is fine and edible, with good salsa options; consider it acceptable for the price point

YouTube Video Description

We talk through our First Impressions of the New Margaritaville at Sea Islander Cruise Ship out of Tampa Cruise Port and we CANNOT believe what we’ve experienced on Embarkation Day! What happens when the worst rated cruise line in North America launches a new cruise ship? Is Margaritaville at Sea doing the right thing with the Margaritaville at Sea Islander Cruise Ship? Do we recommend booked cruise passengers on other cruise lines book future sailings on this new cruise ship? Are other cruise brands such as Royal Caribbean to Carnival Cruise brands such as Carnival Cruise Line, Princess Cruises, Holland America Line, and Cunard better cruise ships? This is the latest cruise news in tandem across the cruise industry where all cruise lines are making cruise cutbacks for cruise passengers onboard cruise ships during 2024 we ask the question- should you book this cruise ship instead of booking a different cruise line cruise ship?! We talk through this new Cruise Ship as well as if this means Margaritaville at Sea should deploy more cruise ships to compete with other cruise lines such as the worlds largest cruise ship Icon of the Seas or soon to be Star of the Seas 2025, to be on the horizon.
