MSC Seashore Cruise Reviews - Reviews

It was a great week, i wish i could start all the way over. I met so many nice people on this ship and even kept in contact with some. I would 100% Recommend MSC Seashore and MSC in general. It’s different, and thats how it should stay. If you don’t like it, stick with another cruiseline🤷‍♂️

Have sailed on MSC many times and love the many age groups aboard, minus the unattended small children allowed to run wild ! Their staff goes overboard (no pun intended) to make guests feel comfortable.

Excellent beach day cruise aboard the MSC Seashore.

Some people must be much higher maintainance than we are. I have no complaints with MSC and would definitely go on another cruise with them.

The Bad: This ship was a nightmare. Absolutely never again. The elevators are key padded. We waited every day, every time, for at least 5-15 minutes. I waited for 25 on one occasion. The communication and customer service sucks. The worst ever. Not a single conversation from the staff. Most don’t speak English. They have the identical nasty food options every single day. Not even a good soup option. We all went hungry pretty much the whole day. The lines for the only restaurant are two to three hours long. We literally ate at the buffet every day with shorter but still long lines. We tried to go an hour early and the line was already an hour wait. They open half their space and have one dining room with no check in process. They don’t provide wash rags for the bathroom and only two towels for a occupied three room person. The ship looks way nicer online. I waited about 10 to 20 minutes every time for a drink. The wait for gelato was even longer because it’s served at the bars and you have to wait for a bartender to come over and serve you. The hot tubs are filled to capacity with little kids. Food service was ordered to be delivered at 6:30 and they called at 11:00 to say they would be late. The ignorance of people cutting in front of you was absolutely ridiculous. I didn’t even attempt a show. Embarkment was a nightmare. The same cups, plates, and drinks people brought back to their rooms sat in the hallways the entire trip. I could go on and on, consistently bad. The good: Disembarkation we got there an hour early 6:30 for self express and there was already a long line but that only took about half an hour. We were off the ship and home by 9:30. You have to be out of your room by 7:00. The gelato was good. Trivia was fun. The island was nice despite the 35 minute wait for the transport to south beach. The room and balcony was nice. The karoke was a fun time watching. The bridge of sighs and serenity area are cool.

Very disappointed. Long time cruiser, 45 cruises on Carnival, RC, Viking, and Princess. This one missed the mark, never felt the love. Never met cabin steward, room was never cleaned, towels never replaced. In fairness, it was only a two night cruise. Service was poor, food choices were poor, at least compared to other cruise lines. We won’t be doing MSC again. There was never a mention of a follow-up survey and we never received one. The people we traveled with also never received a survey either. It was as if they knew this cruise was not a good one. First time cruisers might have been impressed, but anyone who has cruised before could feel the difference. Good points were…ship is beautiful and shows were very good. All else fell short. Sorry.

We had a blast on this short cruise. We loved the side hot tubs on this NY themed cruise ship!!

This was my 3rd cruise with MSC. I truly don't understand the bad ratings some people give. The food is all-inclusive good. If they are looking for 5 star quality they should try the Ritz Carlton Cruise line, Seven Seas, etc. but they should expect to pay 3x more per person. The service is very European (not the fastest). They allow you to enjoy/digest your food before bringing you the next course. I highly recommend MSC Cruises and have already booked my next 2024 New Years cruise with them.

Overall, this cruise was very disappointing! The food was terrible at the buffet and terrible in the dining rooms. Bad cafeteria quality at best. Some things were not cooked well and many people were sick on this ship. They did not enforce hand washing or hand Sanitizer upon entry to the buffet and many people handled the serving spoons and tongs. Very unsanitary and very poor food quality.

The ports of call were not the best or ideal, but went to meet with other family members. It really was a beautiful ship, but they need to focus on soap in the dispensers and cleaning tables to free them up for others. Sometimes went through entire meal next to dirty tables.

Overall the cruise was amazing. I loved the Christmas decorations and Christmas activities that they offered. The shows were so good, with different themes every night. Every night was a different themed party that was really fun. The only complaints I have is that other passengers felt very entitled and were not treating staff the best. It’s Christmas, relax and feel blessed you were given the opportunity to be on a cruise. The cruise was amazing and we had such a good time

Worst travel experience of my life. I will never take MSC again.

We have cruised with Norwegian before and did not have any complaints. Our child loved the camp and the staff involved. Entertainment was much better. Our next cruise will definitely be back on the Norwegian.

We booked this cruise because of Ocean Cay. MSC is closing the island for “repairs” or “remodeling” and we wanted one last trip before they did. Hands down my favorite stop.

We had a great time on this beautiful ship with a great staff and incredible entertainment. Was it perfect- no. No cruise is perfect. But we look for the good and don’t hope for or dwell on the negative. We will definitely sail on MSC again.

Yacht Club was great and all the food was amazing. They had different them night in the top deck fun shows with music 🎵🎶 and dancing. They some nice shows every night. We also had lots of fun parting every night at the club. It was an awesome cruise.

Had a great time onboard the MSC Seashore. This was my 1st MSC cruise and I will definitely be sailing with them again. Price was great! Food was good, pizza was amazing! Staff could have been better. Bar service was slow, but drinks were good!

This was our first msc cruise, we've cruised with rcl, ncl, carnival and celebrity, the price was great and the ship was beautiful, we just did not like the layout and food was more of a mission than anything, but all in all It still was a vacation

This is our second time onboard MSC Seashore. Slightly below standard service, food was blah, Carnival cruise is still a lot better compare to this one. Not so many options to eat. Running out of butter, some beer, missing salad dressing, etc. Very unorganized. Will not sail with MSC again even if we get a free rate.

This ship ran out of banana after day 1. No coke to mix a drink after day 5 and tried to charge me for stuff I didn't use or have. Constantly getting money refunded and/or charges dropped for things I didn't use. Talked to lots of people on that ship and was told they would never go kn a cruse with them again. They also said they were being charged for stuff without being notified or have asked for it whether it was an excursion or something on the beach. Very poor service !
