I sailed MSC on the recommendation of a young nephew and at the end of the cruise I was so glad I followed his advice. The ship was The Seascape: the stage shows and entertainment onboard were astounding, the stateroom and dining room service superb, the food delicious and the ship well designed, clean and comfortable. I enjoyed my cruise experience aboard the Seascape and would highly recommend it.

Christina, our room steward, paid attention to every detail and was very respectful. Ivan, our waiter, made sure that our needs and wants were met. Ship personnel appeared professional at all times.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
The ship was kept clean and we could often see cleaning personnel wiping and shining surfaces commonly touched by many people.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
The stateroom was comfortable with enough storage for three people. Naturally, having a balcony was a big plus. Our steward kept it clean and fresh.
It’s nice that the Port of Puerto Plata offers a free ride to the welcome area and back to the ship. The Taino Bay Walk is beautiful. I took an excursion to the fort, a cigar factory, a rum distillery, the umbrella street, the pink street, etc.
I like the fact that the port is so close to Old San Juan you can find your way back and forth easily. No need to take an excursion in SJ, just be prepared to walk.
Nassau changed a lot since the last time I was there. The straw market is now a covered market, the main drag is full of high end shops, and the post Covid welcome center make Nassau much nicer. Thankfully, I didn’t do an excursion because the weather deteriorated and we had to return to the ship earlier than expected.
