Review summary

We have cruises MSC 8 times. Two have been in balcony cabins. Six have been Yacht Club. The service on those two cruises was the worse ever. I think there should be a closer line between the two.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Yacht Club treatment is unique. From the time you arrive at the tent at the dock. A butler meets you and takes your carryon luggage. There’s no waiting.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
No need for any beverage package. I do think a shot of Remy XO for $27 was excessive.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
The only one we did was coming down the shoot.

Entertainment

3 out of 5
On previous MSC cruises our seating was reserved. We were escorted by a butler to the theater where our seats were prime and had been roped off. That was not the case on the Seashore.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Again we were Yacht Club Guests. For 14 days not just our butler (Sudi) but all catered to our needs. We requested the same waiter every night. Joseph learned us quickly and it made our dining experience special.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
One word Gorgeous!

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Great location. Of course all Yacht cabins are forward. So that’s to be expected.

Ports of call

Miami, Florida

4 out of 5
We flew in the day of sailing on Southwest. We arrived at FLL around 12:00 and used UBER to get to the ship. No excursion. We did stay in Miami one day upon our return.

San Juan, Puerto Rico

5 out of 5
We have been there many times so our day was already set.

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

5 out of 5
A favorite stop for us. Unfortunately it rained most of the day.

Ocho Rios, Jamaica

5 out of 5
We were able to walk to town. The weather was great.

Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic

5 out of 5

George Town, Grand Cayman

4 out of 5
Did some walking. Flea Markets

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Again as Yacht Club Guests we were taken around any Guests standing in line. It adds meaning to the phrase “You Get What You Pay For”

Thanks for your review. We booked a May 7, 2023 MSC cruise, Yacht Club suite, back in June directly with MSC. I have received 2 e-mails and 1 telephone call from our agent. Not to mention the usual pre-cruise e-mails from MSC. Sorry you were not as fortunate.
