I've watched videos on YouTube on MSC seaside showing buffet which had carving table many selections etc that is no longer the case It is not the case on my cruise MSC seaside 4-day cruise pizza cold hot dogs and hamburgers salad bar that was very modest and watered down lemonade that was the buffet for lunch and dinner every day of the cruise except the last day when they ran out of lettuce and offered a salad bar with no lettuce this is not a luxury Cruise this is not even getting your money's worth out of a budget cruise I rode on the MS Davina and the past enjoyed it very much That's why I booked this Cruise but MSC I don't know nothing on the buffet was what was on the YouTube videos nothing but pizza 24 hours a day can't do that for 4 days straight sorry beautiful s*** beautiful rooms ocean cay probably the best private island but the food is unacceptable not worth the money

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
1 out of 5
I've been on 10 plus cruises. I understand MSC is a budget cruise line the ship is beyond beautiful ultra clean rooms and balconies are spacious and nice, but the food is totally unacceptable!!!! 4-day cruise never had anything but pizza hamburgers hot dogs and some slop goulash (only one item) on the buffet for both lunch and dinner. the entire cruise I did not buy a luxury Cruise to eat hot dogs and hamburgers I go to a high school cafeteria if I want that PS high School cafeterias don't cost thousands of dollars I feel I was ripped off as far as the food goes everything else excellent That's why it's such a shame I will not cruise MSC again the food offered was definitely not worth the price unhealthy and an appetizing PS I Cruise MSC on the Davina love the cruise was looking forward to this cruise had a totally positive attitude food was just I'm not going to eat hot dogs on a luxury supposed cruise. Didn't eat Maine dining room maybe it's better I heard people say it was good but ultra small portions and a long wait for service cannot say myself.
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
Had fun lots to do on board F1 simulator was fun only thing is on the white party they have it semi indoors in an enclosed area and they play the speakers louder than a jet aircraft engine at full thrust. I am not an old footy duddy. I'm old I've been to many rock concerts enjoyed myself this music was just too damn loud if you looked 3/4 of the people weren't even sitting near the DJ they were sitting outside 20 yards away by the pool were the sound level was acceptable

Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Excellent super clean cabin didn't see cabin hostess that much but cabin was made up cleaned excellent condition each day of cruise kind of weird had bathtub instead of shower and the bathtub enclosure only covers one quarter of the bathtub Florida totally wet even if you tried for it not to but it was still fun balcony excellent
Ship tip
Go on board with high expectations for the ship The atmosphere aboard ship and the accommodations just be ready to eat food in the buffet that is lower quality than your average high school cafeteria sorry to say that
Unbelievable excellent destination probably best private island such a shame Loved everything about this cruise if the food had been of even acceptable quality I would definitely go on MSC again but at this point I cannot do that hot dogs hamburgers pizza only offered on buffet all four days lunch and dinner the fourth day they didn't even offer lettuce on the salad bar that's all that's not a luxury cruise
I have traveled to Nassau many times I'm glad to see the great improvements they have made to their port and the lively fun tourist destination Nassau that's totally upgraded the experience onshore
I wonder if the MSC Divina's inclusive price buffet is better than MSC Seaside's inclusive price buffet?
MSC cruiseline seems lacking in service and in some areas food too. There should be a list of pros and cons of MSC cruiselines.
Anyway, thank you for your review.
