MSC Seaside - It's incredible. Ask me anything!

I really, really enjoyed the MSC Seaside on a 7 Day Western Caribbean Cruise. I loved every aspect, especially the food. There was so much to love. I would love to answer any questions that you have.

How was the food and what excursions did you do on each of your stops?

Hello, I see this is your very first post. Welcome to cruise critic and Glad you enjoyed Seaside!

Glad you loved it. Looking forward to going in 32 days! The countdown is on.

If you took pictures of the dining room menus can you post them please.

If you participated in any activities/crafts/games can you give your opinion of those? I saw mini golf and mega Jenga listed - how do they do that? Seems like there are a lot of dance classes too, how were those?

Glad you enjoyed it.

Good for you that you enjoyed your cruise.

Which experience did you have?

1. Wondering if you visited the gym, and if so is there a charge now for using the treadmills and other equipment?

2. Did you play minigolf or see where they set it up? Wondering how it was done and if it was fun.

3. Previously asked what drink plan you have if any. I was wondering mainly about Venchi. Really looking forward to some gelato and maybe an Affogato on board.

4. Where and what type of cabin are you in?

5. Did you experience any odor issues?

6. What did you eat for lunch on boarding day?

Happy cruising! :)

I am very concerned about the plans we've made in the Grand Cayman. What would you say the max time allotment should be to tender in from Seaside?

Whats your concerns??? If you scheduled a private excursion....no worries. They know when the ship arrives. Assuming you don't delay your tender departure and leave when everyone else does you will be fine.

What experience level were you? Bella, Fantastica, Aurea, Yacht Club?

HI

On MSC Seaside Cruise Chat on Facebook someone posted that the Casino has mirrored floors and the main walk way the floor is open , of which they are stating "allows people to look up women's dresses." They also are warning people to the fact, that "the men's bathroom on the 6th floor near the theater has full mirror ceiling and wall ..so while washing your hands and glance up you can see off the ceiling to the front side of the guys urinal " which allows you to see the person relieving himself.

I have never heard this mentioned.. It doesn't affect me wanting to book with the Seaside, but my best friend read it and it seems to have drawn some concerns with her desire to book.

I personally think this is a bit exaggerated.. ,but could someone shed some light on this so I can alleviate her concerns?

Thanks so much

How to identify creeps in restrooms, their the one's checking out others with or without mirrors. What happens with open trough style urinals?

In many countries, the restrooms are not sperated by gender nor partitions. Creeps can be creeps anywhere...the design of a restroom, classroom, church, playground, military baracks, etc. is not the problem...root cause: creeps.

Rumors and worry...stay calm.

Enjoy your cruise on whatever ship/line of your choosing!

Cheers!

31 days and counting neighbor to the north. It will be awesome

Seaside does not have a miniature golf course. A couple of times during the week they put a putting green on the pool deck close to where the movie screen is located. It one hole with a strip of AstroTurf, one putter and a couple of balls. That's it.

No they don't, that is why I was curious. Saw on one of the daily planners posted by Jim Zim and it says mini golf? Do they roll out some putting greens or what? Can someone who has seen this explain?

Mytstery solved, thanks Cruzluver! Now do you know about mega jenga? That one has me thinking giant foam jenga blocks and teams of people trying to move them around. Similar to Hasbro game show on Carnival :confused:

Does anyone still wear dresses on a US based cruise ship? Couldn't be many.

Me! I live in sundresses.

Glad you enjoyed Seaside. It is a ship that I would love to cruise on some day.

Were you Bella, Fantastica, Aurea or YC? and how was that? What kind of stateroom? Thanks for any extra info you can provide.

Bit of exaggeration. I guess if one stood there forever, maybe that would be a remote possibility and would require the exact angle of sight (too much physics). Its really a short walkway in/out of casino, with everyone coming/going in different directions, so NOT an issue. If one was overly concerned, then can bypass passageway and walk around it thru the casino slot area.
