Dinner tonight was awkward. Sat for longer thank normal while a large group monopolized the staff. And then food was cool. 

We’ve had an ongoing conversation about the size of Yacht Club on the newer ships or has cruising service just become meh. Not sure of the answer but we will keep giving it a go!

We asked and did receive facial tissue!!

It’s not the highest quality but easier to use than TP!!

 

After bringing a box from home, we found a box in our desk drawer in the cabin. 🤪

So we booked another cruise onboard last night. Our future cruise consultant, Buse was very knowledgeable and very customer focused. 
 

Booking on board benefits include the ability to reserve your choice if room, full ability to move cruises and a $200 onboard credit. 
 

Next up, breakfast and Ocean Cay. 

Had a great time at dinner with you both last night! Like you, staying onboard but at the pool deck. Plenty of spots, even shady ones! 

We worked out later this morning. The gym was busy but we were able to find equipment to get our daily moves in. 
 

Wish list: Kettle bells. A bit more room for yoga mats. 
 

Wayne has tried a few non alcoholic drinks and gives MSC high marks for trying to mix it up. The coffees and tea in the Yacht Club arrives quickly and hot! Interesting enough the Cappuccino arrived cold at Venci! Odd. 
 

Be warned that the wine selections by the glass in the Yacht Club restaurant are rotated and there isn’t any information or menu about that nights choices. So you may want to grab a glass from the Top Sail before dinner from their menu. 

Today started a bit off for us. We slept very well last night and didn’t get to the restaurant as early as normal. We arrived at 9:32 and the restaurant had closed gir breakfast at 9:30. Sigh. We will read our daily next time! 
 

Had good choices at the One Pool buffet but it was windy. Wayne was disappointed as his eggs got very cold quickly. Oh well, I’m sure we will have plenty of time to make up those calories at lunch. 😝

So glad to meet you! Between the 2 of us we’ll report out on any and all things Seashore!

So happy to meet our fellow cruisers! The staff has been welcoming and the food fresh! 

Wayne and I are always looking for a reason to go to sea. This trip is to celebrate by birthday! 
 

It’s our 25th cruise. So I guess that makes this our Silver Anniversary of cruising! 4th time in MSC Yacht Club. 1st 3 day. And 1st Interior. 
 

There have been recent reports of boarding issues, but we had a smooth start to our trip. 
Arrived at the port at 10:20 and were seated in the Top Sail lounge by 11:00. 🌹

Wayne gave up on alcohol 4 years ago, so we will be reporting on the drinks that may interest the Sober and the sober curious cruisers! 
 

If you have any questions, I’ll do my best to stay in touch and answer along our way. 
 

Feeling relaxed and ready for a few days away from our real world. 
 

Heading out tomorrow for the 3 night in YC. Hmm. Hope it’s not as bad as it sounds. I’ll report back and see if it’s improving. 
 

Not sure about the arcade, but I will check for you…

Saw those reports too. We just sailed Mera and snacks there every day.  We sailed Mera then Divinia b2b right after startup.  Very different experiences even under those circumstances.

Now I’m intrigued about the different experiences. We loved the Divinia. Hope she’s still as nice as our sailings. 

Wootwoot!

I have read that the Top Sail lounge snacks have changed. Some reports are there is no self service and they bring trays to you. I loved coming in and grabbing a few smaller items to bring back to the cabin. I’m hoping it’s was just a one off change. 👀

Looking forward to meeting everyone!

Yes! That’s our date! I’ll check out the roll calls. Thanks!

Hi everyone. I’m Stacia and my DH is Wayne. Our Voyager Status was set to expire at the end of this year, so we threw in a 3 day in December to stay active. 
 

This will be our 4th time in Yacht Club, first 3 day and our first interior in any cruise. Yeah! We always try to do 1 thing new every day of any vacation we take, so this is one for our records.   
 

Let us know what questions you have and we will do our best to answer them. 
 

Oh, it’s also our 1st time at Ocean Cay abd are excited to experience it!

I’ll finally be able to check in tonight! WootWoot!

Thanks everyone. Appreciate the information!

We have a casino rate with a non refundable deposit. If we want to change the date, does anyone know if we still have to pay the fee?

Thanks!

For cruises to Ireland and England, is there a better side of the ship for our cabin?

Following. Have Havana booked on Celebration in November. 

Does the Havana area have coffee available? 

Still sitting in the Lido. Sigh.
