What I Loved and Hated on the MSC Seaside 2019
Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creator provides a detailed review of the MSC Seaside, categorizing her experiences into inconveniences and highlights. She notes several logistical frustrations, including the inability to pre-register credit cards, the requirement to sign for every drink even with a package, and a lack of staffing at busy bars. She also critiques the narrow viewing angles in the Piazza for performances, limited cabin storage, and a lack of variety in the buffet food selection. Despite these issues, the creator concludes that the ship offers a high-quality experience. She praises the updated entertainment lineup, specifically the improv comedy and modern musical shows, and commends the food quality in specialty restaurants. Additional positives include the Fun Zone amenities, the efficient shore excursion organization, and the ship's overall aesthetic design. She notes that the service staff is polite and that the ship's amenities for children are highly rated. Ultimately, she suggests that the initial negative reputation of the ship was due to early growing pains and recommends the MSC Seaside to potential cruisers.
