We went last week and had a great time. It was different than what we were used to for sure, but the food was excellent, staff was friendly and Ocean Cay was amazing.
We're glad to hear that you enjoyed the ship as much as we did! We agree that MSC is definitely a bit different than other cruise lines, but it certainly does have some things going for it... especially Ocean Cay!
Can't wait to visit in October! Looks amazing
What do you mean different from other cruise lines?
Right NOW I’m on MSC Seaside and the only thing I can complain about is, the elevators and if you have childrenX signing a waiver for each individual ride. Other than that I’m having a great time
@@mechanicaldave7981 we found the MSC cruises to have more of a European influence, which makes sense as the company is based in Switzerland and has offices in Italy. I do think we discuss more of the differences in this episode too ruclips.net/video/f4bJYbwH30I/видео.html
My cruise to Alaska and Northern Europe were nothing like this. All the adventure was off the ship. I would enjoy this ship if it never even left the port. And since I’ve been checking out cruise videos recently as I suddenly have interest, your videos are levels above anything else I can find.
There are a lot of cruisers who never do get off the ship. I never used to understand it. But now that's we've stayed during port days to film these videos, we're starting to see the appeal! Service becomes about 200% better when half the people are off the ship!
Thanks for the kind comments. We don't watch a lot of cruise videos, but we've been getting some good feedback on the quality of our cruise tours compared to everything else that is out there, so we're excited to do more in the future and keep making them better!
That was, once again, incredibly helpful, fun to watch, and just so perfectly done!! 👏👏 Thank you guys❣️
Thank you so much for the kind comment! We think this was our best cruise tour video yet, and hope to keep improving them as we do more.
The fact that you guys take this tour every year is a testament to how much you must love it. We still have never down a caribbean cruise. Looks like we're missing out. That private island looks amazing and All that food looks so delicious!
Yes, we really do love this itinerary, and it's so great that we are able to repeat it but also experience a different ship!
What a great tour of a beautiful ship! I had just about decided not to try cruising but this video has changed my mind. I'd *love* to cruise this ship...it all looks like paradise! Thanks so much, guys! 🙂
Thanks Rhonda! We do feel that a ship this nice and this big really does have something for everyone. There are certainly areas of this ship that we mostly prefer to avoid (mainly due to crowds and noise level), but we can always find somewhere on the ship that we find enjoyable! If you do decide to give a big cruise ship a shot, a short, cheap MSC ship is a great way to get your feet wet!
Preparing for my first cruise and we decided this ship. Your video was sooo needed! Thank you so much!
How exciting! We're so happy to hear our video helped you to decide on your first cruise! We hope you have an amazing time.
Never again! MSC Seaside was a nightmare! If it was my first cruise it would have been my last
Sorry to hear about your experience. We are a bit intrigued to hear about what made your experience so bad.
@@Explorcation 1. Food was mostly bland. A few dishes were ok. Everybody I talked to was disappointed. The sit down planned dinners, the food portions were so small you had to go to buffet to get satiated. The buffets weren’t good. The only good places with food were the restaurants you paid money for.
2. The speakers in rooms were so loud it hurt your ears.
3. Not much to do on board unless your a drinker or wanted to spend a lot of money.
4. The elevators were always packed and you had to climb stairs for everything.
5. You couldn’t go to the front of the ship unless you paid for the high class.
6. The muster drill made old people that could barely walk to walk down the stairs and not use the elevators. Poor old people had to shuffle downstairs with a crowd of people , it’s a miracle none were trampled or fell and got hurt.
7. When we went to leave we woke up early, and then waited for 5 hours to be met with everybody else to leave. And as we waited in the long lines the high class people were ushered through the crowds infuriating everybody who waited for hours.
There’s so much more, I can’t remember it all
@@trying3841 thank you for taking the time to share your experience as this information is helpful to others who are trying to decide if they want to book on this ship. We've sailed on MSC several times over the past couple of years and have found the food experience to be improving, but there is still room for continued improvement. You are correct about the front of the ship being reserved for those who book in the Yacht Club. We've found this to be the case on all MSC ships we've sailed on out of Florida. We also agree with you on the muster drill. Of all the cruise lines we have sailed on, the MSC muster drill has been the most unorganized. We hope you have a much better experience on your next cruise.
Thank you for the tour and all the information about the MSC Seaside. I just booked the MSC Seaside last night for Jan 2025, I have sailed with MSC on the MSC Divina. Yes, it was a bit different but nothing new I lived in Italy for a few years (USN). The MSC Divina was my first solo cruise, and I did enjoy myself . Looking forward to my next MSC Cruise.
Our pleasure. We really hope that our video helps you to make the most of your cruise on the Seaside next January! We are hoping to get a chance to sail on the Divina sometime soon, and we're glad that you enjoyed your cruise on it.
OUTSTANDING VIDEO...HUGE THANKS!!!!!! I and my daughter will take our first MSC voyage next week. You guys have helped with our anxiety AND YOU'VE GENERATED TRUE EXCITEMENT, as we have been on many cruises, with other carriers. THANK YOU!!!🐠🚢🎉😄🏖
Wow thanks so much for this kind and encouraging feedback. We hope you and your daughter have an amazing time on your first MSC Cruise!
Okay that’s it!! MSC cruise will be my next cruise 😀👏🏼❤️especially will my friends!💖
That's great to hear, Sydney! We hope you and your friends love it!
Thank you for the tour. I've never been on a cruise ship so I find this very fascinating. It's like a city on water. Totally different than the old rusty oil tankers I used to spend time on.
A city on water really is a great way to describe it. And yes, I would imagine the oil tanker experience would be just a little bit different!
Great job on this video. Definitely feel like we got a great ship tour and an excellent perspective on features of the Seaside. New subscriber and we are catching up on your previous adventures.
Thanks so much for watching and for subscribing, Vernon! We're glad you found the video to be helpful and we hope you're enjoying our other content as well!
Went on my first cruise with them I’m definitely coming back had so much fun the staff was very good towards our needs the music and food was really good coming back soon 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
We're so glad you had a good time and plan to return. Maybe we'll see ya on a ship someday!
I have sailed her twice and going again 2 weeks. Always enjoy MSC.
How exciting! We hope you have an amazing cruise!
I’ll be on the cruise with you is it august 17-2 can’t wait
nice i am going on an msc cruise in sept...the gym looks legit hopefully it is as nice as the virgin voyages one
We thought it seemed pretty nice but have never been on a Virgin Voyages ship to compare it to. We hope you have a great time in September!
My family just returned from a cruise on Seaside. Amazing ship. Great service. The good thing is that this is a BIG ship. The bad thing is that this is a BIG ship. Just much too crowded for me but that comes with the territory on these behemoths. We gave up on the pool for the grands after the first day. It was nuts. Elevator service was slow of course. Again, that's to be expected. The restaurants and food were fine. Our assigned waiter was extremely cordial and helpful. We cash tipped him extra. Now, here's the big bad complaint, and believe me, this is justified, not just whining. This is on MSC for poor design planning. We had 3 balcony cabins on the 15th deck. They were nice. However, directly above us was deck 16 (obviously) and it was open right outside of the buffet restaurant overlooking the ocean. At night other guests were constantly dragging around tables and chairs which megaphoned right into our cabin. We simply could not get to sleep until those folks decided to leave that deck. So, if you're going to book, do NOT book cabins on deck 15 unless you check first and make sure yours aren't directly below the open part of deck 16.
We're glad to hear you had such a good overall experience, despite the sleep issues. We'll make sure not to get a balcony cabin in that location on our next MSC cruise!
I’m going on this ship tomorrow and your video makes me so excited. This is my first time cruising with MSC, so I wasn’t quite sure what to expect as previous experiences have been with RC and Disney… great video and awesome info!
Thank you so much for this incredibly kind comment, Danielle. We hope you had a wonderful time on the Seaside!
Thanks so much for sharing another wonderful video like always, awesome cruise ship, keep up with the awesome content 🛳️👍🤗
Our pleasure! We feel like we're really finding our groove with these ship tours and may just have to start cruising a bit more often!
I was on the same cruise as you!
That's awesome! Did you see yourself in the video? Or did you see us on the ship?
You do a great job on your videos, it's much appreciated!!
Thank you so much for this incredibly kind comment, Shirley!
Very nice! Beautiful views! Thanks for the tour.
Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment! The views were beautiful, no doubt!
Been on the ship my mom and dad said it was not their favorite but I still recommend people to go on it and I love the fact that you tore everything around and every time for drinks and get a piña colada or strawberry daiquiri
We're glad you enjoyed your cruise on the Seaside. Thanks for watching!
Very good video, loved it
We cruise on it in June and we’re cruising again this month
This is the best video that we have seen. You are excellent explaining everything ❤
Thank you so much for the incredibly kind and encouraging comment! We're really happy to hear that you enjoyed the video, and that you'll be getting back on the Seashore soon. It's such a fun ship!
OMG, I LOVE THIS‼️‼️ This is probably the MOST thorough review I've ever seen! 😍 I've never been on a MSC cruise before (only 4 Carnival 1 Norwegian 1 Royal Caribbean) so I just wanted a glimpse of what to expect and your video did not disappoint - I'm so EXCITED after seeing this!! I will say, the only thing I noticed that was missing from this...was a segment about the professional pictures! I have to have em 😅 so I was hoping I'd see something about that, but still no complaints because you definitely filled me in on exactly where to get my Miami Vices from!!! LOL
Wow thank you so much for this incredibly kind and encouraging comment. We're glad the video has helped you to get excited for your upcoming cruise. We hope you have a great time on the cruise and get some amazing professional pictures taken!
@@Explorcation yesss, thank you so much! ❤️
@@Explorcation I literally just got back from the cruise - I had a blast! But I see why you didn't include the professional pictures 🤣🤣🤣🤣 their lighting sucks! I hated all my pictures lol
@@msrolltide6635 aww thanks for coming back and commenting, we are so glad you had a good time. As far as the professional pics...since we've only been on short MSC cruises (so far) we would forget to even go and look at our pics, but it sounds like we didn't miss out 😆
Never been to this one but I will in the future
We sure hope so!
Hi @Explorcation. Great video guys. Very nice tour :). Greetings from Dunedin.
Hello and thanks for the continued support of our channel. We always appreciate it!
I love seeing around cruise ships - they all have something a bit unique about them. I think I need to give MSC a try and rank it for myself ;)
They really do. Even the sister ships always have so many things that separate them from each other. MSC's definitely worth a try, especially if you can score a great deal!
Great ship tour! I've been on 3 MSC cruises but not yet on the Seaside... can't wait!
Thanks so much! We've now been on 3 as well and are trying to decide what # 4 will be!
The water looks amazing on island. We have heard mixed reviews of the MSC line but looks like you had the most relaxing time and that’s the best part of cruising. Love it guys!!
We've been on that island three times and each time the water has been beautiful, but the day we filmed our tour was the most beautiful we've seen the water on that island. It was unreal! Half the cruise was definitely not relaxing (the filming half), but once the filming was done and we were able to enjoy a few drinks, we were definitely relaxed!
@@Explorcation so beautiful! and yes you need time to relax cause filming is a lot :)
I went there for my birthday and almost threw up :’(
I still recommend! They have medicines there!
We're so glad you still had a good time despite getting sick. Thanks for watching!
What an amazing show today!
Thank you, Scully. We think it was our best ship tour yet!
Thanks for this insightful video! Looking forward to sailing on this ship soon.
Our pleasure! Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to comment. We hope the video helps you make the most of your cruise on the Seaside!
Awesome tour of one of my favorite MSC ships. Looking forward to sailing her later this year. Did the inaugural sailing on the Seascape in December
Thank you so much for the kind comment, Vanessa. The Seascape looks like such an amazing ship and we're hoping to sail on it sometime soon! We hope you have a great cruise on the Seaside later this year.
Thank you so much for this video! I’m taking my first cruise with them on the 31st and I wasn’t sure what to expect, so this video was a huge help 😍 you guys are awesome!!!! New subscriber lol ❤
We're so glad to hear that you enjoyed the video and found it to be helpful! We hope you have an amazing first cruise, and thanks so much for subscribing!
Thank you!!!
Thanks so much for watching!
Great video. We are doing our first cruise on MSC on the Seashore in January 2024. Looking forward to the overnight stay at the private island. The island looks awesome. we have been going to RCL Coco Cay since 2009 and we liked better before all the additions of the waterpark and large pool. Thank you again you guys are awesome.
Thank you so much! We really appreciate you watching and taking the time to comment. And yes, we also experienced Coco Cay before it got built up, and did prefer the experience back then as well. We hope you have a great time on the Seashore!
Wow wow Amazing
Thanks so much for watching, this ship really has a lot to offer.
Very well done review!
Thank you! Fun videos to film... not so much to edit!
Great video!
Thank you so much!
i'm going on sunday. i have high hopes!
That's awesome. We hope your video helps you to make the most of your cruise!
@@Explorcation my grandparents were denied boarding because US Customs changed the rules on what's needed to board a week prior, but other than that, i had fun. I met a really nice bartender and Bistrot la Boheme. We became friends lol
Nice tour!
Did you like meraviglia or seaside better?
Thank you. Very though call. Both had things we liked over the other. I'd probably say we liked Seaside a tad better, but Meraviglia would be better for a colder weather cruise.
My first cruise on MSC was last year on the Seashore and i enjoyed very much that i cruise on the Meraviglia last april , both very good ships and in both in balcony cabins for the same price as an interior cabin on Royal Caribbean and Carnival new ships(Mardi gras or Celebration)
Thanks so much for watching and sharing your MSC experiences! The deals that you can find on these beautiful MSC ships are truly amazing! We can't wait to sail on the Seashore... hopefully sometime soon!
I’m going to the MSc seaside with my family in a year or months I just gotta ask what foods to avoid and to try. I have never Ben on a usa cruise before and I am from Sweden. So exited to fly to Florida I haven’t Ben to usa in years
We really loved the pizza, and pretty much all of the other Italian food (pasta, cheeses, and breads). We also really loved the prime rib in the dining room on the first night. Breakfast on the buffet was also pretty good. We did not eat many of the meats on the main buffet, and also didn't find many of the desserts to be very good. We hope you have a great time on your cruise on the Seaside!
Leaving tomorrow just watching this for the dopamine
We're happy we could provide it for you, and we hope you have a great time on the Seaside!
Another excellent review. Great editing and your voice is so calming! We are seriously considering an MSC cruise. Between the Mereviglia and the seaside which one do you think would be better for a couple? We both are vegan and love spending our days out in the sun by the pool. Thanks and can't wait for you next video!
Thank you so much! That's tough because there were things we enjoyed more about each ship... but we will say that the Meraviglia seems to be more of a cold weather ship and doesn't offer quite as much outdoor space as the Seaside does. The Seaside also does have the Miami Beach pool at the back of the ship which was probably our favorite pool on either ship. So we'd probably lean towards seaside knowing that you love being at the pool and out in the sun! Now if you were more into staying inside in the AC, we'd have to recommend the Meraviglia.
Thanks for the reply really appreciate it! They both look great from your videos.
@@BillSferrazza we hope you have a great time is you end up booking!
mes enfants partent en croisiere sur ce bateau bientot, magnifique vidéo vous etes des pro, je me suis abonné a votre chaine
Thank you very much for this incredibly kind feedback. We hope your children have a great time on their cruise, and thank you for the sub!
I recently was on seaside. I will never go on another msc cruise. The old saying that you get what you pay for is very true with msc. The food is terrible. The ship was dirty. My wife and I both caught covid. I actually lost weight.😢😢
Sorry to hear about your experience. Unfortunately there's always a decent possibility of getting sick any time you put 5,000+ people together in a limited space. In what way did you find the ship to be dirty? We didn't experience that at all on our cruise. As far as the food goes, we can see how some people don't like it, especially if you stick mostly to the american style food. We really loved the pizza, breads, pastas and cheeses... but to each their own. Buy yeah, getting what you pay for generally rings true at least to some degree. These are generally very inexpensive cruises and do fall short of more expensive cruises in various ways.
Zip line related question. I could tell from the video it looks like Tyler had a GoPro mounted camera on his helmet, as well as holding a phone or some sort of camera device in his hand, are there any restrictions as far as taking your phone or camera on the zip line? Thanks
Yes, he had one GoPro on a head strap mount and one on a wrist strap mount. They do require that they be attached to you in some way.
Great video!
How did you upgraded to balcony room?
Thank you. We'll share how we got upgraded in our next video, which we expect to be live this Saturday. We hope you are able to watch it!
Great video, very detailed. When you purchase drinks at bars included in your package, how do you leave the bar tender tips? Cash or is it charged to your room?
There is a tip fee charged to your room each day... but we do still leave extra cash tips when we receive good service.... nothing too crazy, but just a few dollars here and there.
A bit confused, why is the buffet closed on port days. What food options are on the cruise if guest are staying on the cruise.
It's just the smaller buffet that was closed on port days during our cruise. The main buffet was still open.
wooo koks
Has our very first cruise on the Seaside in 2019 and going back on her her again this October.
Best places to have breakfast other than the Seashore and the buffet?
That's so exciting. Thanks for sharing. Unless you are booked in the Yacht Club, I don't think there are any breakfast options other than the two buffets, the Seashore restaurant, and room service.
How’s MSC entertainment wise? Compare to other cruises night clubs, food etc??
You may want to check out this video if you haven't already. I think it should answer your question and hopefully a lot more. ruclips.net/video/f4bJYbwH30I/видео.html
Where can you find, or can you remember, which nights were which theme? We are going on the 3 night P.C. and back in August.
Based on our experience on the three day itinerary, it seems common to have the Sail-Away and 70's/disco party on Day 1, the Lighthouse Show/Island Party on Day 2 and the White Party on Day 3.
really love your ship tour, I have one question for you? I am booked on the seaside this coming October, I believe on deck 16 you said it was a Buffet the smaller version which was less crowded. Is there outside seating at this Buffay or is that only at the back of 8th floor Buffet? Thanks
Neither of us recall there being any outdoor seating in the smaller deck 16 buffet. For that reason, we still ended up on the 8th floor buffet most days (way at the back).
It looks like you could go out the back doors of the Buffet on 16 and basically eat at some of the tables that are semi-outside near the bar but it looks like they have at least a 5 1/2 foot glass shield and roofing over the top so you might get some air but not like I would assume you would on the Buffet on eight. Thanks
@@rotfan77 it is possible that we just don't remember that area...or maybe didn't even see it! Either way we hope you have a great cruise!
How did you get the free upgrade?
As far as we know, the only way to get a free upgrade is to get really lucky!
So on the upper state room floors that you dont tour in this video, do they offer anything like the other floors, pools, bars, restaurants?
The spots on the upper floors that we didn't tour are reserved for Yacht Club guests only. We've never booked a Yacht Club room (they are quite expensive) so we've never had access to those areas and can't tell you for sure what you can all find there.
Question: MSC states that we cannot board until 2:30 but our hotel check out is at 11:00am. Will MSC let you check in early? Thank You
From our experience, it's possible. We've shown up early for many cruises and sometimes you get right one, other times you have to wait until they call your group (which may be your originally assigned time or could be earlier/later). We think it's generally worth it to show up early, especially since it can sometimes take an hour plus just to get parked and back to the terminal.
Did you book directly through the MSC website or Travel Agent?
I believe this one we booked through Vacations to Go, but occasionally we will book directly through MSC. It all depends on who is offering the best rate/perks.
I was wondering. The items that were in the mini fridge in your hotel room. We're those complimentary?
No, we're pretty sure that the mini fridge items are not complimentary on MSC. Thanks for watching!
@@Explorcation thank you for your reply.
I was thinking of booking this cruise for my birthday in august, as a solo traveler it would be my second time cruising alone. First on MSC, would you recommend it?
MSC does occasionally run specials for solo travelers. If yo are patient and wait for the right time, you can probably get a really great deal. As long as you have reasonable expectations, we think you'll have a great time!
Taking my first Cruise what is the best cruise line in cruise ship for the ultimate Cruise the best money I'm only halfway through this video did you guys deal with a lot of crowds
That all depends on what you prioritize. If you prioritize good food/drinks/service, we'd probably recommend a Celebrity ship or the MSC Yacht Club. If you really like to party, you may want to look into Carnival. For a little of both, you may want to try one of the newer Royal Caribbean, Norwegian, or MSC ships.
Acabo de bajarme de ese crucero, los pasillos olían a humedad apenas tenían buena rotulación no creo que volvería con esa línea
Sorry to hear that. We definitely did not have any humidity/smell issues on our cruise. I wonder if there was something wrong with the air conditioning.
I noticed he is wearing a t-shirt at the restaurant. Are not as strict as they say they are about what you wear on the ship I am a shorts wearing kind of guy all day and night on vacation.
From our experience, the main restaurants on MSC ships are generally not to strict on the dress code. Skylar definitely wore shorts to dinner one night and no one said anything.
Are the items in the mini fridge included or have to be paid for separately?
They have to be paid or separately.
Ok thanks also do you know what the theme nights are so I may plan accordingly?
Sailing 20th-23
@@sc_williams during our cruise the first night was 70s/80s theme, 2nd night was the beach party and 3rd night was the white party. We hope you have a great time!
Can you wear shorts in the dining room?
Yes, we saw quite a few people wearing shorts. Just no swim trunks or gym shorts.
What cabin number did you have? We booked a tub for sept and wondering if this is our cabin lol
Our room # was 14155. That would be pretty crazy if you got the same cabin!
@Explorcation we are pretty close to that one. Its my first cruise. Thanks for all the info in your video. Last question. Did you have a view of the private island when it was docked or were you on the ocean side?
@@clipperloyalty we had a view of the ocean and not the island, but the water was absolutely gorgeous 😍 we hope you have a wonderful time!
The worst cruise I have ever been on. 10/29-11/5/2023. The dining tables are jammed together & it was like being in a high school cafeteria. It was so loud I could hear the people next to me.
Sorry to hear about your experience. Thanks for sharing.
Just got off this ship last week. Food was HORRIBLE!!! and that is being kind. Staff is good but none of them seem to know what is going on. It seems like they all just started working there.
We've sailed on MSC three times in the last few months. One ship was only about 60-70% full and seemed to be properly staff. The other two were 100% full and seemed to be under-staffed. Regarding the food, we've learned that there are some things MSC does poorly, but also some things they do extremely well (Pizza, breads, pasta, cheeses.... basically anything Italian). Plus the prime rib the first night has always been great.
I went, beautiful ship, food was mediocre at buffet, dining room needs new chef
Fair assessment. Our first MSC cruise the food was a bit disappointing, but by our third cruise we had learned which foods they did well and never had a bad meal.
Does anyone currently working on msc seaside cruise kindly ping me
Have you sailed on the Seaside...or any MSC ship? If so, let us know about your experience!
This was our 3rd MSC cruise and will be sharing what we like and dont like about this cruise line...and tips for making the most of your MSC cruise in our next episode.
If you haven't sailed on MSC, do you think you will consider this cruise line in the future?
Best tour out there.. MSC Seaside.... I have 29 sailings to my repertoire with MSC 9/2021 TO 5/2023... with 21 more already scheduled 'til 7/2024. I am a single cruiser, inside cabin, wifi and drink package... my next is July 30, 2023.. Balcony Upgrade.??? .... I was never offered. Thanks, Julius😊.
@@pdanker1 thanks so much for watching, we hope you are having a great time on your current cruise 😁
First time cruisers will think this ship is ok. But if you've been on any other cruise line, you will see the difference. We just returned two days ago. The quality of food and entertainment was........not good. A pole dancer on a cheap portable pole was the entertainment on the last night of the cruise in the main theater. So beware.
It's a massive and beautiful ship. While it has its flaws, it also has areas that exceed much more expensive cruise lines. From our experience, once you've cruised on MSC a few times you learn what's good and what to avoid, and it's then that you can really enjoy their ships. We are far from first time cruises and we still think the ship is ok (especially when considering the price).
MSC has beautiful ships but I will never understand the tinted windows everywhere obstructing the stunning views of the ocean. It's seriously annoying and makes me not want to book a cruise with them.
Yeah, the tinted windows are not our favorite thing either, but definitely not a deal breaker. But if you prefer spending most of your time inside, we see how it could be.
I cruised on the MSC Seaside….worse cruise ever! Ok if your Italian.
We are sorry to hear you didn't have a good experience, we still appreciate you watching.
Don’t go on MSC Seaside. Just got off today. Worst experience!
If you don't mind us asking, what made the experience so terrible for you?
I'm going on this specific cruise in October and your video has been the most insightful one yet. Thank you so much! 🫶🏽
Also, it did leave me with a few more questions so I'll look into them with your other videos.😅
Speaking of questions. Do you have a breakdown of the MSC Ocean Cay? I didn't know you could be there during the night or let alone that there was a party on the beach!! That's pretty cool. Also, did they require you to be on board at a specific time after the beach party? Or could you literally stay there overnight? What time did you have to be back the next morning?
The layout definitely seems weird to me. But your thorough explanation was great! I say this because I've been on multiple RC cruises and on Carnival too.
Thank you so much for this incredibly kind feedback. We're glad you enjoyed the video.
In our MSC Meraviglia video we do have some more footage of Ocean Cay, and we also discussed it a bit in our "Things we like and don't like about MSC" video. But someday we may just have to do a video just about Ocean Cay. I do think they told everyone that they had to be on board by midnight, or somewhere around. We didn't stay out there long enough to see if they actually enforced it!
