Very impressed with MSC Seaside! Excellent food, service and facilities. Would highly recommend it to others. Only two complaints:1 - the mandatory safety presentation was a joke. Not informative at all. Took over an hour waiting for passengers to arrive and only demonstrated how to put on life vests but didn’t even tell us where we would find them in case of emergency and nothing about emergency procedures. 2 - allowing people to enter late for stage shows and to wander all over looking for seats which was quite disturbing during the otherwise excellent performances

Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
Especially enjoyed the Aurea Spa. Had 2 wonderful massages and enjoyed time each day in the thermal area. Pools were quite crowded but we went very early one morning and really enjoyed it. the zipline was an adventure - it’s been on my bucket list. (I’m 75)
Entertainment
5 out of 5
Stage shows were all excellent. Wonderfully talented performers for Singing, dancing and acrobatic acts. Costumes and sets fabulous. Only complaint was that people were allowed to enter late and walk aroun looking for seats. Very disturbing
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Waiters were all excellent - couldn’t ask for more attentive, friendly service. Our room steward was friendly and kept our stateroom in perfect condition - and always with a smile! All other ship personnel we came in contact with were friendly and professional .

Ship tip
Be sure to experience everything possible during the cruise and use the MSC for me app
Excellent excursion - tour of both Dutch and French sides and a little shopping time. arranged through Cruises.com. Small number of people and a super guide- very knowledgeable and friendly. Only disappointment was beach - an alternate one due to hurricane damage at planned one
Excellent excursion booked through MSC. Boat trip to Pearl Island. Very nice - not crowded, beautiful and nice facilities. Only complaint was that the person escorting us off the ship disappeared and we were left on our own in a panic to find our way to the boat taking us to the island.
