Review summary

This is the first time on MSC Divina.Since we booked our cruise we've seen the reviews improving so we were happy about that. We really enjoyed our vacations. We were pleased with the service, our room was clean and cozy, the ship is beautiful, the swarovski stairs are stunning. We really liked the pool area, is modern and family friendly. We really liked the shows on the theater.  The singers are great,especially the tenor. We attended our first opera show and we loved it. We really want to distinguish the fabulous work of the entertainment crew.

 

 But there are little things that we think they should improve. I think they should include a formal breakfast in the restaurant, like other cruises, because the buffet got really congested in the morning. Plus, in the lunch time they have a good variety of pizza but they should include more food besides hot dogs and burguers and fries. 

Another thing is that the we feel that  we were a little rushed in some Islands like Bahamas because we had little time to explore the island because the Cruise arrived at 12 or 12:30 and we had to be on board  at 4:30 pm. Some passenger complained that we had to make a long line to get off the ship and that they were rushed in their excursions.  We really enjoyed the shows but I think they should include comedy shows too and sometimes after 9:45 pm they were not a lot things to do. Also the jewelry on the cruise was too expensive in other cruises we were able to buy some jewelry. But most of the jewels were over the $2000 and even fantasy jewelry was $60 or more so in that sense is not so budget friendly. Another thing is that they dont have an iron on the room or even on the same deck, you have to pay for every piece of clothing. I don't think that's something that people take in consideration when they're making there budget for a vacation. But in overall we had a Very good experience in MSC ship and we could go in another ship soon.

hello! thank you for your review. I have a couple of questions, if I may. I have cruised before but have no complaints about any company I've used. But like the true chicken that I am, my concern is choppy water. How was the sailing? any feedback is appreciated.

I was on the MSC Divina June 25, 2016 they should have different variety of foods there were no grits to eat with my breakfast, they should have a Comedy Show the room were very nice the reason there is no iron in the rooms because of fire safety I was told. The buffet area goes around the ship what's on one side for food keep walking around there were other choices like BBQ Ribs, pot roast, etc. The prices to shop were expensive but there were a shop past the pool area the $10.00 store or buy three items for $27.00 I shopped there. The pictures were expensive but beautiful we waited to the night before time to leave to buy and people that worked behind the picture counter were very rude that need to change. Overall I had a great time and will sail again with MSC Divina.

We were on there the week before you. There were so many variety of food besides burgers and pizza. The buffet area was huge so maybe you didn't see it all. There were even food from other countries. I do agree there should be a comedy show and more to do after 10 besides the club. But over all had the best time and beautiful ship!
