Margaritaville At Sea Islander: First Look At Public Spaces On Board!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 17 июн 2024
- Margaritaville At Sea Islander launched and we've put together a full tour of all the public spaces on board. This quick tour brings you from the top of the ship on Deck 12 all the way down to Deck 1 highlighting all the things that are waiting for you on board Margaritaville At Sea Islander!
We share with you the spaces we love the most and point out how the Margaritaville At Sea pays homage to the past by keeping in certain elements and Easter-eggs for cruise lovers. This Spirit-class ship originally sailed for Costa Cruises as the Costa Atlantica before being transformed during an extensive dry dock that brought in new venues and experiences aboard.
If you've sailed any of the Carnival Spirit-class ships, you'll feel right at home here! To help you orient yourself as we go through the tour, we provide deck plan images throughout the video - those are all courtesy of Margaritaville At Sea.
The inaugural sailing was a true blessing for Rocky and me. We met so many people on board and got to experience things we've never done before in all of our cruises. It was truly a cruise we will never forget. We hope that this tour gives you just a little bit of an idea for what's in store on Margaritaville At Sea Islander!
Stay tuned for our FULL REVIEW which we'll publish once our second sailing is complete. We've been busy taking notes and will share everything we loved, didn't love, and hated.

I really like the way you put the deck layout graphic next to the video, really helps my brain picture everything, very smart!!!
Thank you for the kinds words! We sometimes find it hard on tours to figure out where someone is on the ship, so we started overlaying the deck plans. It’s a lot more time consuming, but it’s rewarding to hear that it helps!! :) -m
Having some of the Costa accents makes me anxious to see the Firenze!!! Great job as always bringing the look and feel of the ship!
Thank you! We love the nod to the history of the ship in various public spaces.
Looks like MAS stepped up their game with this one! Even though she’s old, still a beautiful ship!
It’s 100% true! A departure from Paradise, for sure!
Love how they incorporate all of Jimmy's songs everywhere on the ship. 🦈Love the color and the vibe of the ship. She look beautiful. I can't wait to sail in November. Great overview of the Islander. I am sure they have a few things to work out, but I feel confident it will be fine.🦈🍹🍹🍹🍹
They did such a great job on the names of the various venues! We just keep learning more and more about Jimmy Buffet and the Margaritaville brand. Lots of great integrations!
Thanks, Rocky & Mark, for a REALLY informative video on the Islander, which we are booked on next week. BTW - Being a videographer myself I REALLY appreciate that you guys used time lapse along with insert views of the deck plans to tell the story efficiently while still being your entertaining selves. Thanks!
So glad you found good information in the tour! And thank YOU for the kind words! We’re kind of geeks when it comes to looking at deck plans and have tried to find a good balance that will keep folks entertained. Thank you for letting us know that you appreciated our video content! Rocky
@@thiscruiselife Also wanted to ask - any chance you guys are going to cruise on the RCL Utopia of the Seas? Hoping you are before we board her in early October this year. It would be a welcome addition to the RCL promos if ThisCruiseLife had something to post!
@@robertcarpentier ah! We aren’t booked yet. We’ll try to see if we can get on her.
I can’t wait to see more. That was an excellent review I am sold and ready to book. Packing my bags now.😂
We’ll be recording our final thoughts and posting it to the channel soon after the cruise ends!
She looks way better than the other ship did when it came out
We 💯 agree! They did a fantastic job at refitting her. Really love what they’ve done.
Great tour!!
Thank you!
Great overview! Nice meeting y’all on the inaugural cruise! We got to find out what QMN is, too but we aren’t spilling the beans either. 😁
Thank you for the kind words! And we hope you had the most fun. 💙 So glad you got to experience QMN - we got to actually record our full review there!!! Talk about a day-maker. Working on the edits now so we can hopefully post it early this week!
Hey Guys, Tampa here. LOVE the Coral Reef Lounge. Carpet, seating and the coral on the walls. Great job. Can't wait to see it on the 23rd Aug. Looking for your next video. Sail safe on your second round aboard our MAS Islander.
Thank you! It’s a great ship and we’re impressed with the little touches throughout! Hope you have a great cruise!
We did some research and believe that QMN refers to an obscure Buffett song Quietly Making Noise (QMN).
🤔🤷♂️🤐😉
You did a great job at speeding through the floors in a way that was understandable and insightful! I’m not a casino girl but I absolutely hate having to walk by or through the smoke, so I will enjoy it being non smoking. We sail in late September- gonna let them work out the first few kinks 😂😂😂
Great plan! It’s a beautiful ship and we’re loving watching it evolve. That smoke-free casino is amazing and it has allowed us to play a couple games without allergies kicking in.
I’m ready! Let’s gooooo!!!
Yaaasss!!!
I just found out Las Vegas Margaritaville is closed. We were going to visit Vegas in the few weeks. Thanks for your awesome videos!
Wow. That makes me so sad. We’ve had some fun times there with the margarita overflowing and the mermaids getting us wet. Just damn.
Yeah! They just closed it a month or two ago. Perhaps they’ll come back to a different location soon.
Haha. Oh the memories! Just so difficult to keep up with all of the changes happening in Vegas these days!
Great video - definitely want to check this ship out!
Yes! It’s a great ship!
Love it❣️ Thank you! I'm greatly anticipating my cruise date 7/16! I'll be waiting for your next video❣️
Oh my gosh. You’re going to have a great cruise! Find up!
The ship is familiar from the Carnival ships (who own Costa for those who don’t know), so them keeping a lot of the set up from Costa is awesome. Definitely an upgrade from what I have seen from the MAS Paradise. I refused to sail on it, but this one has changed my mind about MAS. They spent some money on this one.
It really is different look and feel from Paradise. We’re having a great time and are excited to watch Margaritaville at Sea continue expand with this addition. They’ve got the right idea and will continue to get better!
Great filming awesome smiles. You really have me interested in this ship. I'll try to fit it in this year done 7 cruises so far this year and later part of the year looks open great I'm so excited. You guys really do a GREAT job.🎉
Thank you! It’s a great ship! Margaritaville at Sea did a great job at refitting her and branding her. Truly a beautiful ship and great crew on board!
I noticed that layout of this ship looks exactly like the Spirit class of Carnival ships.
That's a great observation! We love the Spirit-class and as soon as we learned about that we recorded a video comparing this ship to the Carnival Miracle. You should check it out if you haven't already: ruclips.net/video/pHmWXKPmGv4/видео.html
I was going to say it looks like an old carnival spirit class ship.
It feels absolutely familiar! Definitely some great aspects to the ship!
It looks like they pulled it off with this ship. Appears they did a deep refurb and not just slapped some paint on everything like with Paradise.
It’s definitely apparent that they put a lot of time and thought into the design of this ship public space. Even the cabins were overhauled. It looks great!
on the waterslide rules, it says that it is for kids 12+ .... did you see that this was enforced? OR did you see kids that looked younger on it?
We didn’t see them checking any IDs while we were back there. ;) With that said, after an injury on the next to last day of our sailing, the water slide was shut down. I would imagine they are going to be more rigorous going forward on who can/can’t ride. Of course, we always recommend following all rules to ensure a safe and fun vacation experience! :) -mark
I know what QMN is.. I guess I won't reveal since its a secret... 🤷🏿♂️
Thank you for holding onto the secret with us! 😜
This looks like an actual cruise ship! As opposed to Margaritaville at Sea Paradise, which just looks sad…
They did an amazing job. It’s clear they had a lot more creative control bringing in a new ship (versus inheriting what Bahamas Paradise already had). The spaces are all very intentional, and it’s one of our favorite classes of ships (Spirit). Definitely think they’ve got a competitor with this one!! -m
Please....SLOW DOWN.
There’s just sooooo much to see and do, it’s hard to slow down!! But, we will definitely take an easier pace in our full review so everyone can take in the ship and hear what we loved, didn’t love, and hated. Thanks for watching - and stay tuned for a lot more! :) -mark
@@thiscruiselife The pace was so fast that I could not enjoy watching. Remember....cruising is about Relaxation. Please help me enjoy your videos.
They could be Great.
