8-Day Cruise to Bahamas Aboard MSC SEASIDE

Overall, we had a great experience on the MSC Seaside. Our Balcony Stateroom was very nice, and our Cabin Attendant, Raja, provided excellent service throughout the cruise.

We also had great service at The Seashore Restaurant from our drink server David and waiter Supiarta. The Biscayne Bay and Marketplace Buffet was good as well, with plenty of choices.

The Discover Nassau, Bahamas tour with Marco was very informative, and we really enjoyed Ocean Cay. It was beautiful, peaceful, and relaxing.

The only disappointment was our specialty dining experience at Ocean Cay Restaurant. Our table really enjoyed the Corn and Crab Chowder and Pineapple Carpaccio, but the grilled seafood was not as good as we expected. The tuna appeared undercooked for our preference, and the Beef Short Ribs had too much fat.

Overall, it was still a very nice cruise, and the excellent staff made the experience enjoyable. We would definitely give MSC Seaside another try in the future.

We just returned from a cruise with MSC, and from the very first day, our bodies started showing bites from some kind of bug. Every day, the situation got worse, and eventually the itching became so severe that we could barely sleep.

We reported the problem to the person in charge of our room, and they inspected it but did not find anything.

The ship was the MSC Seaside. I will never get on that ship again.

Another problem we experienced was that they did not provide small towels, and there were no irons available for our clothes.

The internet service was also terrible and extremely inconsistent throughout the cruise. The food also left a lot to be desired. At the buffet, they rarely offered any meat other than chicken. There was very little variety when it came to desserts.

At breakfast, there was only one person preparing omelets, and sometimes we had to wait up to 15 minutes just to get one. I miss Royal Caribbean.

The ship was absolutely delightful - clean, bright, modern, well laid out, with really lovely staff. However the food was unbelievably bad! Most of it was completely tasteless. We ordered snapper one night in the regular restaurant and it honestly looked rancid. Chicken lettuce wrap was quite tasty but the lettuce was limp like a wet rag. Pizza in the marketplace was burnt black, yet they were serving it like it was New Yorks best. I feel like MSC were happily slopping out pig swill without a thought of the population eating it. We didn't eat much for 4 days because it was so bad. Also the drinks were weak and had a sweetener aftertaste! I have cruised Royal Caribbean and Celebrity, but i have never experienced such dreadful food in my life! I have been in the travel business for many years and I can honestly say that I would be very reluctant to recommend MSC to anyone now!!!
