    I'm looking forward to Ocean Cay. When booking I didn't realize the ship was docked overnight, what a bonus, with time to relax in the evening. I'm ready!

    We’re looking forward to cruising with MSC Magnifica in 62 days (December 2023). The island looks like it is going to be lots of fun, for adults and kids alike! We’re celebrating our granddaughter’s 16th birthday on this cruise! 🎂🎉

    I heard about them closing the island down early next year to do some updates.I was thinking how cool would it be if they installed a handful of glamping spots/tent spots that if you pay for it on those overnight port stays you can spend the night out under the stars of a private island. I'd pay extra for that.

    I'm super pale, and well the sun is NOT my friend. Hearing that there is limited shade on the island we opted for a cabana (we are also YC), so I'm looking forward to a very chill beach day.

    If my choices are an oceanview (not beachfront) cabana in the Yacht Club area or a cabana in the main area where the beach isn't as rocky, which would you recommend?

  • @teresa978

    Can you just walk off the ship at any time in the morning or do you have to wait until after the Yacht Club and the other levels after get off first?

  • @vincentclausen2250
    @vincentclausen2250 10 місяців тому +2

    Don’t go in July! Hot and humid. Not a fan of any of the corporate islands. The scheduled upgrade will hopefully cure a lot of issues. We did the yacht club section, bring water shoes. Also I can’t recommend the high priced cabana. The furniture needs replacement. The butlers and waiters are great but way over worked

    You CAN take shells from beaches in the bahamas. That is, if you're returning to the USA. Im not sure about other countries. The only requirement is that you wash the shells.

    Cay is pronounced like key. So you would say "Ocean Key" Island, not Ocean K.

    Just came off MSC Seascape.
    Will NEVER cruise again with them.
    Dinners were nasty except for two nights and after that I thought the Chef jumped overboard.
    Staff were rude in buffet area.
    No little cafe to get a snack at night. You must go to the buffet where they served pizza EVERY night.
    If you never cruise with any other lines you won't be able to compare but I will never travel with them again.
