My husband and I recently returned from a 1 week cruise to the eastern caribbean on MSC seaside. This was our first cruise in nearly 20 year so I read all of the positive/negative reviews and went onboard with my eyes wide open. My overall experience was WONDERFUL!!!! Below are some of my thoughts.

We chose:

- Aurea Experience

Cabin Review

Aurea Balcony Stateroom

- Gift reed diffuser to take home (Aurea experience)

Suggestions

- Take a power cube that provides more USB and outlet options
