I have mix feelings about this cruise ship I found out the cruise line is buying 2nd ship When the cruise line was called Bahama paradise cruise line I was on the grand celebration I had good and bad views I hope the cruise line grows and problems fix

[@richardg8651]

Looks like fun Thanks for a fair review . It seems like some reviewers like to use this line as a punching bag . Unfair given the price .

[@freshlysqueezedtravels]

Thank you! I agree. 😁

[@heather1980]

The best part of my Margaritaville cruise was the Jimmy Buffet show-I’m really sad to hear it’s gone.

[@freshlysqueezedtravels]

I loved it too! Hoping they bring it back.

[@johndittmer8488]

I think that the other cruise vloggers don't give Jimmy Buffet and the Margaritaville at Sea enough credit for saving a cruise line that was in desperate shape due to the pandemic and turn it around into something decent.

[@offerxs7284]

Great video, very informative. I might give Margaritaville at Sea a shot for a quick getaway!

[@glenjackson3453]

Thanks for the honest review! Sounds like a fun and affordable option for a short getaway.

[@ariesrising7257]

Thanks again for another balanced and valuable review! I live in a Jimmy Buffet branded community, "Latitude Margaritaville", and I have been considering one of these cruises. As a frequent cruiser myself on other cruise lines, your review helped me level set when I take a Margaritaville vessel. As a veteran, I wasn't aware of the options available to us with Margaritaville cruises, a TRUE value. So thanks again! Keep the quality reviews coming 💥

[@freshlysqueezedtravels]

Thank you for your kind comment and your service to our country. 😁

[@markchangcoco5427]

10k!!!!! 🎉🥳🙌 congrats!!! That's so awesome!!

[@freshlysqueezedtravels]

Thank you!!! Took a couple years and 100 videos but finally happened. Thank you for ALL your support along the way. 😊

[@Judy1957]

I have cruised MAS multiple times and have never been disappointed. I cruised with friends and solo. I’m thinking of taking a couple of my grandkids with me, they’ll enjoy it! Kim, I’m a lot like you, it doesn’t take much for me to enjoy myself and I understand that MAS is not Celebrity. I have enjoyed myself on both cruise lines. Thank you for supporting a local cruise line that is improving little by little. Hey, Rome wasn’t built in a day, right? You’re the best! I’m an OG, lol

[@freshlysqueezedtravels]

A kindred spirit! I love it. 😊 Thank you for sharing!!!

[@donaldaustin1275]

Thanks for posting! I was unaware they offer any discounts for veterans - that's cool!

[@arah7727]

The scavenger hunt game sounds like a blast! I'll definitely consider this cruise.

[@phrewilly8556]

Great video and congrats on breaking the 10K Subscriber level! You will be at 100K before you know it!

[@freshlysqueezedtravels]

You are the best!!! Took two years but I finally made five digits. 😊

[@Josh-gr1im]

I'd love to try this cruise for a quick escape. Midweek with fewer crowds sounds perfect!

[@usbeast5600]

The two different shows on board are a nice improvement. Variety is always a good thing!

[@shirleanbaker3534]

I went and I love it ❤❤❤

[@cruisingforone]

It looks like a blast to me. Nice to get your perspective.

[@freshlysqueezedtravels]

Thank you for watching and your support!!! 😊

My wife and I have been on this cruise three times during the week sailing. We love it! The food isn’t great, but then again, the buffet is really good, so just eat dinner there both nights. And they also have a few specialty restaurants on board as well. Also, the drinks they serve are incredible! No watering down of the drinks at all! All the bartenders were very friendly, and knowledgeable. The rooms were clean. The best part? NO KIDS! ( or very few ). You have to go during the week, and while the kids are in school. We just returned from a 4 night sailing on the Disney Wish cruise line out of Port Canaveral Florida. It was awesome! The food was SPECTACULAR. The drinks were incredible as well. Very clean. An A++++ staff too boot! However, get ready to deal with tons of kids on board ( obviously ). That, of course, comes with a price tag of almost 4,000.00!!!! Not really my cup of tea, but, if you desire a mostly adult cruise,for a couple of days, and don’t set your expectations too high, the MAS cruise is definitely worth the money! I’m excited to sail on the new ship the islander next year!!!!

Hello i want to know when getting off the boat and reboarding…what’s there protocol? Do they give you a special key card or do you use your room card key or id to get back on the cruise?

[@freshlysqueezedtravels]

You use your cabin keycard to get off and on the ship. But you should also have ID with you whenever you leave the ship. Hope that helps!

[@PeterSichel92]

Do you think it's a bigger gamble to take a Margaritaville cruise or MSC?

[@freshlysqueezedtravels]

I wouldn’t take a weekend cruise on either. I think for the money Margaritaville provides a fun cheap getaway. MSC ships are much much nicer.

[@kevinogle2166]

Why didn’t y’all get off the ship?

[@freshlysqueezedtravels]

There’s not much to do at the port. And we didn’t book an excursion. And we were pretty tired after a very late night. 😁
