Your floating resort

The Seaside is MSC Cruises' first glorious ship to specifically to cater to the US market. It's the namesake of MSC's Seaside Class and rewrites the rules when it comes to design, blending the indoors and outdoors seamlessly. It offers new entertainment, plenty of speciality restaurant, more MSC Yacht Club facilities, a larger and better kids club, as well as family and penthouse style suites.

Its exclusive seafront promenade is choc a bloc full of restaurants, bars, shops and swim and sunbathing facilities. The panoramic views from the two glass-floored catwalks is breath-taking. They also have the brilliant new MSC for me app, which you can download before you board, and then use to stay connected with the ship, crew, and selected fellow passengers, according to your preferences. Enjoy the sunshine on a waterfront promenade on the MSC Seaside, the ship that follows the sun!
