Review summary

There were 4 of us (2 family couples in our group). We are planning to do another MSC Seaside cruise in 2020 (as 2019 already booked). We were on 14-day cruise not 7-day cruise. Week 2 ports were even better.

The thermal area spa, of all the add ons (drinks, photos etc.) this was the best value for money. Great are without kids.
