All the lounges on the Seashore were padded, no matter where in the YC.We bid on the YC on the Seashore for$1500.00 for a 7 day cruiser which was accepted. We originally booked Fantastica balcony. We've also been in the YC and a fantastica balcony on the Divina, and booked another YC balcony on the Divina while on the Seashore. To us, outside of the YC on MSC is just like Carnival, which we stay away from. I don't care about the wines in the YC as long as it's drinkable at dinner. I drink JW Black, which is no problem. In any case, we love the service and the ambiance of the YC. Never had a problem in 2 YC sailings.
