MSC SEASHORE REVIEW 2022 | WHAT WE LOVED AND WHAT WE HATED 

LOL, yeah, the pizza WAS good! And the speedos... well... maybe we should just join them... NOT!

😅😅😅

the speedos 😂😂

😂😂😂😂

Thanks Glenda, it seems we have some similar thoughts! Thanks for watching.

Great write up Glenda. Thank you.

Glad it was helpful! And we totally agree! We look forward sailing with MSC again, and we think you will LOVE this ship. Thanks for watching, and have a wonderful cruise Shelly!

Is your cruise on the 13th of august?

Absolutely no reason to complain.

Thanks Chris! We just sailed on Royals Wonder of the Seas, so you should check out our review of that ship! Either way, I think you'll have a great vacation!

Thanks for supporting the channel Christo!

The Italian offerings were VERY good, yes! And though we haven't done it (we always get the soda package) the ability to bring that 12 pack on is a great feature for a lot of folks!

We will definitely cruise MSC again! Hopefully sooner rather than later... 😃

Thanks so much, Kevin! We have a pretty full slate over the next 18 months, but I look forward to sailing with MSC again!

Thanks!

Very well said Jorge. And yes, there were plenty of American themed options in the buffet, just not the dining room., and on a ship geared towards Americans I'd hoped there would be more. We loved the experience, as I see you did. We will definitely sail MSC again. Thanks so much for sharing!

It is because you are openminded and not narrowminded. Any cruise is what you make of it. If you are going on a cruise looking for something to complain about, you will always find something. Every single time we went cruising we had a marvelous time.

We agree! THe crew were fantastic and the ship is BEAUTIFUL. The New York theme is nice with sculptures and artwork. Thanks for watching!

We have similar feelings! Thanks for watching andnyes, we too will sail MSC again...

We hope to be back on MSC soon as well! Thanks for watching.

You are welcome Billy, it sure is a beautiful ship!

Hmmmm.... I got no free ice cream! :^( But it was delicious anyway!

You are very welcome Julie! We are actually on the Seascape right now, which is exactly like Seashore. We should have a review up in a few weeks! Thanks for watching.

We loved the Mexican restaurant, and great suggestion for the lights! Thanks for watching.

We enjoyed it! And we are booked on Seascape and Seaside soon. Have a great cruise and thanks for watching the video.

Very good advice, thanks... I do love my ice cream! And yes, we enjoyed the slides... especially with the VR. That was fun!

I've heard that elsewhere too. Kind of a rip for adults.

Good advice Lisnette! We didn't know about the bands, but it makes sense... and we will definitely try to score some package deal next time. Thanks for watching and happy cruising!

Such an awesome ship! I hope you have a great trip. Here's a link to out ship tour of the Seashore if you'd like to get acclimated... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ZPrR3UAoOcM.html Thanks for watching T M.

You are verybwelcome Ron! Thanks for watching.

We had a great time... can't wait to get back!

Most, if not all, cruise lines will require all adults in the same room to purchase a drink package if one does…

I hope you have a great cruise! Thanks for watching and let us know your thoughts after you sail!

Have a GREAT cruise Rhonda! Thanks for watching--I hope you checked out the ship tour!

Me too, full 14 day cruise

You are very welcome! I think you guys will have a great cruise!

Very smart! 😁

Thanks Mike! Have you sailed MSC?

@@thecruiseworld I’m booked on the Seashore for the 29th of October for a TA promo MSC is doing for us. And you were the first in my opinion to give a balanced view of the pros and cons… I’m going to posting video content on my channel as well just to see if things changed.

@@thecruiseworld this will be my first MSC cruise - I’m eagerly waiting to see what I feel are the true pros and cons :)

Thanks for asking! It sure seemed like it, didn't it? Hope you had a great cruise and thanks so much for watching the channel.

I couldn't agree more! I've never had a cruise I didn't like... there will always be little things, and education is what these types of videos are about... thanks for watching!

It was amazing!

I ate mostly off the buffet as I wasn't a huge fan of the MDR selections (I'm picky). I found the buffet to be very food and plenty of meats and chicken. Have a great cruise!

Glad it helped! After tax, the sodas came to around $4 a can... We didn't purchase any bottled water on the ship so I am not sure about that. I think you will love this ship, I know we did... hope you have a great cruise!

@@thecruiseworld Thank you!

I am booked in June for MSC Seashore and this is my very first cruise. I did purchase the drink package cause I do like to drink when vacationing lol

The kids are fine, its the adults that burst into elevators before letting others off that starts to weigh on you.

@@mittmuckerbin296 I am getting very nervous about this trip. Overall did you have a good vacation?

Absolutely! All large passenger cruise ships have well equipped medical facilities. They are on a lower deck and not a public area which is why it wasn’t included in the tour. When really serious medical issues arise, patients are typically air lifted off the ship.

Hey Paula, thanks for watching... and we have watched this back and this came out wrong. This particular child was wold, and we realize it has nothing to do with where he is from...

They must have been French.

The cruise lines are always running various offers, and MSC has some of the lowest entry rates of the major cruise lines. Prices can vary greatly depending on sailing date. Mid January to mid March is known as "wave season" for the cruise industry and is when so.e of the best deals can be had. Thanks for watching the channel!

We encountered quite a bit of this as well... Not sure what the reasoning is, but we will definitely sail MSC again. Unfortunately, there are rude people everywhere and I will have to just try to ignore them... Thanks for watching!

Just look thumb your nose to the French as every American does.

Hey Michele, thanks for watching. We think you'll like it... and this is much bigger than Disney's ships. Let us know what you thought after you sail!

I DO love some Italian food 🍝 Thanks for watching--we will definitely be sailing MSC again!

Thanks for the comments... hope to sail Seaside eventually!

Absolutely not... very relaxed and comfortable.

It was... maybe next time I will shop for a deal... we will definitely sail MSC again!

We agree! The ships are beautiful and the price is right. We resisted the temptation for all the upcharges and ended with a good cruise for a good price. We will cruise MSC again...

Our embarkation was good. Some of the staff seemed a little confused, but our process went quickly. We tested at the port in addition to presenting negative test and we were on the ship in good time...

@@thecruiseworld Thank you!

Stephanie did get tap water and the dining locations... now, she did think that it had a little bit of a weird odor... but it was free.

It’s ocean water.

Hmm... good question... maybe... umm, "lose" your card? Let me know if you are able! And have fun.

So we used a plastic card as a place holder anything like an old room key or card credit card would do

Did u meet any sexy singles???? U know what I mean!!!!!

They literally kick you off.

Yeah, we have gotten some great deals with MSC.

Have a blast Debra!

There was a good variety including some international fare, but everything you could imagine from a typical American breakfast buffet . They also had some breakfast/dessert pizzas in the morning and donuts.

@@thecruiseworld very cool and thank you for your reply. Have a good evening take and good evening.

We’ll hopefully we will be as successful as them someday! 😍

I hope you're right, that would be helpful... will have to check that out next time. Thanks for watching!

Debra, I totally agree that the food we had was great (loved the pizza!). My only disappointment with the food was the sparse selection of American dishes in the MDR. This ship is marketed for Americans and sails from Miami. That being said, almost everything I had was great! And for those who's palettes aren't as finicky as mine, the different selections will be very welcoming!

The food is great??? Are u INSANE????

Just something to keep in mind... great cruise ship though!

Thanks for watching!

I would definitely look for a promotion next time we sail MSC

Please post the link.

I called them directly not sure if deal is still avaliable

Yeah, so that's around $65 a person per day, and I understand the need for both to get the alcohol package, but soda? It's so cheap... Still a great cruise! 😁

Crazy prices.. try MSC

@@debrageigel1622 going on MSC October 1st and I got the drinks included in my room for only 100.00 total

@@thecruiseworld yeah, my mother does not drink. Never has. So it was a hard hit to have them make us both get the alcohol package. It is what it is I reckon. We got a drink package with MSC for only 100.00 for the whole week.

Agreed!

Yeah. They endorse diabetes.

We didn't go to the nightclub/disco at all, as we were on when things were just restarting from Covid.

Cruised may 21-28th just got back. It was nice up until the last few days. My nephew tested positive for Covid (he is 3 so needed to be tested since unvaccinated 2 days before disembarkation). Then the whole family who was cruising with which was 8 more of us had to be tested. They told me I was negative and then an hour later comes back and says you were positive just kidding. Then says the same to my brother and sister in law. Puts us on deck 10 in isolation for a day. My brother in law stayed with my nephew in isolation while my sister(his mother) and her daughter and my parents get to stay roaming the ship. My mom demands a retest since I had Covid recently and poof. I’m negative. My brother and his wife get negative results as well. They were told they were never positive and didn’t know why they were told that and they were held in isolation for close contact. This was the sea day we were held in isolation and we got out on our Ocean Cay day. We got lucky and we’re able to roam the ship and go out the rest of the day. The communication was very poor and not together. One person would say one thing while another would say something else. They were confused when we asked why my sister and my parents never went into isolation. It was a mess. Then we had to disembark on deck 4 instead of deck 6 since we were close contact only to be placed near the Covid positive crowd and held there until customs was able to get to us. They did upgrade our room for one day. And give us dinner at butchers cut but it will not help the bad taste in my mouth from MSC. I wish this wasn’t my first cruising experience.

Also my sister then went and stayed with my nephew so they could be together for disembarkation and they took all of the Covid positive crowd to a hotel to stay until they were cleared (they were put on a no fly list). Well when the bus got to the hotel there were no rooms and the driver said “sorry” and left. So ridiculous.

@@sierraheavrin5247 so sorry to hear this... I hope you will give cruising another chance at some point.

This ship was beautiful! We look forward to sailing MSC again...

In my experience, most people just want to lounge in the pools-other than the little ones. Many of the big ships have multiple pools…. But I’ve never seen anyone wanting to do laps, lol.

@@thecruiseworld but how can u fit 6k people in a pool that barely hold maybe 30?

Hey Alex, thanks for watching! I completely agree with you when cruising in Europe... there we are typically off the ship in port for 8 to 12 hours. In the Caribbean however, it is common for us to just be off the ship a few hours... even in Europe though, with most lines a ain't d soda package still makes sense for me. Thanks for watching!

We Americans want to get DRUNK!!!!!!

@@SKS8080 Why? Is life without getting drunk so unbearable for Americans??

@@alexboysen9472 two words. Joe Biden. That’s reason enough to drink heavily.

@@alexboysen9472 because of Joe Biden.

Not gonna lie... at times they were like hawks... like the old days of going to a used car lot... but overall we had a great time...

Hey Christo, you are absolutely correct, this wasn't anything against the line... this was just a review of our experience on this MSC cruise. I do feel however that it should be MSC staff that engage with the parents regarding children that are interfering with other guests experience. Also, yes, you are absolutely 💯 correct, we have seen American families act worse... believe me. This was only referencing this cruise, and was done so in a Live forum without a script. We do appreciate you watching the channel and we are excited to be sailing again with MSC in July!

@@thecruiseworld What more can I say than I'm hooked? Looking forward to your next post. All the best for the future.

@@christoels8110 Thanks! We just finished up a great cruise on Carnival Celebration, next up is NCL, then RCL, then a second round on MSC! Thanks again for watching the channel!

Personally, we love the inside cabins. The only thing ocean view will do is let some light in…. I prefer the darkness of I choose to sleep in or, as I often do on vacation, grab an afternoon so. The choice is yours but either way have a fantastic cruise and thanks for watching!

This was a while ago, and it was recorded during a LIVE show, so we were speaking of the cuff, but if I remember, she was talking about rude passengers and people allowing their kids to run around the ship like it was a playground... "those people". Thanks for watching--the ship was great!

🤣

Yes, Ocean Cay was great--and they are still doing improvements! I agree that MSC will try to "nickel and dime" you, but yeah, the ships are great and there is good value to be had with the cruise...

This was 2021…. You do t have to worry about any of that now.

We were Bella

Neil, I completely agree, these referenced passengers were rude--and where they are from is irrelevant. Thanks for watching!

Hey Perry, thanks for watching! I've tried many, many different foods and have been to over 75 different countries. The pallette likes what it likes. Overall we really enjoyed this cruise and will definitely sail with MSC again. But if you are sailing a ship from the US, and you promote the ship as being for Americans, I would expect more options along with the worldly cuisine. That's all... and rude people such no matter where they are from, but in this case, the majority were not from the US. I know that isn't always the case. Cheers!

Perry a) I'm on the MSC Seashore right now and the pasangers are rude as fuck (they sound like you ) that is one of the main reasons I won't be back on. b) the food in the buffet taste cheap and just nasty no flavor at all, but if that's what you are into that's cool.

@@jasonb7862 b) I wouldn't know what the buffet food is like - I almost never leave the Yacht Club. a) Way to go digging up a dead conversation, necrophilia much?

Lol 🤣 😆 😂

What u expect from Europeans?

Not worried about it at all... if we were we wouldn't have taken a bunch of cruises already... that being said if you choose to cruise right now I think you should be prepared to follow the rules that the cruise line has set out and that you agreed to... My personal feeling is that this is not going away anytime soon and we need to learn to live with it... I don't think the masks are really helping but I will wear it if needed. I'm ready to get back to the way things were, but some increased sanitation is definitely not a bad thing... thanks for watching!

Hi Lisa! First of all, thanks for watching the video. Secondly, thanks for opening my eyes to a new slang term, "Septic", which apparently means "American". I was smart enough to figure out the "Thick" part. 😂 I am a little shocked at the comment, especially since I don't recall either of us saying the word "CAY" in this video. And I will be the first to admit, that I occasionally use both pronunciations for this word, ˈkē , ˈkā, and in one of the most widely used dictionaries for us "Septics" since 1828, Meriam Webster, BOTH pronunciations are correct. Maybe Royal Caribbean (ker-ə-ˈbē-ən) or should I say Royal Caribbean (kə-ˈri-bē-ən), should be to blame for this mess with their famous private island "Perfect Day at Coco Cay". Oh well... I won't judge anyone for how they choose to pronounce the words... or their thickness... You say potato, I say potato.
