Staying in a nice hotel in South Beach - The Breakwater. Really enjoying Miami and the weather so far, makes a welcome change from UK. Keep hearing the Seascape is experiencing choppy waters so hoping that we'll avoid it. Bit shocked by the prices of food and drinks so far but appreciate we're in a really touristy area. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Scottdalfonso Posted January 26 #2 Share Posted January 26 Looking forward to your reports as we sail Seascape for the first time later this year. And yes, Miami is very expensive- close to NYC prices for food and drinks. Enjoy your stay and can't wait to follow along. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare wolft927 Posted January 26 #3 Share Posted January 26 Following as well as we sail the Seascape in September, first time MSC and first time Yacht club as well. Usually NCL Haven. As far as Miami, yes prices are very high for food and drinks. We always stay by the port the night before our cruise. Prices still High but not as bad as the tourist areas of south beach. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Ryan82 Posted January 26 Author #4 Share Posted January 26 Hey @wolft927 we're standard (fantastica) so won't be able to tell you about Yacht club. I did put in an upgrade bid for Yacht club but am guessing as I haven't heard anything it was unsuccessful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Ryan82 Posted January 26 Author #5 Share Posted January 26 Although eating out is more expensive (even compared to London UK prices) everything we've eaten really has been superb. Last night we ate at Havana 1957 which is located in hotel. Really was amazing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well thats good, we are doing Fantastica, so I'm interested in how the dining and all that stuff works out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope you have a great cruise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erekosse Posted January 26 #8 Share Posted January 26 Following along. We will be down there in March on the Seascape. We are flying in the night before and staying near the airport. We'll rideshare to the port the next morning. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm disembarking Seascape tomorrow, yes it was quite choppy Day 1-5 but yesterday was perfect so hopefully the wind has calmed. We almost didn't make it into Puerto Plata and had to make a couple of attempts. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Ryan82 Posted January 27 Author #10 Share Posted January 27 Thanks @DaveyGK hope you enjoyed your cruise though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveyGK Posted January 27 #11 Share Posted January 27 Absolutely! It's been great, YC has been amazing and I'd suggest going straight to guest services to ask if there's any upgrades when you get on board as it's totally worth it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mreic082 Posted January 27 #12 Share Posted January 27 Enjoy your trip! If you get a chance, can you post a MDR menu or two? I’m traveling soon with my kids who love to know what’s coming up for dinner. 🙃 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks They’re from November, so quite recent. However, this week’s may be the ‘second’ week’s menus (they usually have a 14 day menu rotation). Hopefully the OP will post some so we can compare. I just gave the link so you’d get some idea of what MSC offers. Edited January 29 by Beamafar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
