Review summary

I liked it. I wish there were a bit more of island music , to keep with the vacation theme. Some lovely american tourists. We met some people from Spain, delightful. Some other European tourist, not so friendly.

No complaints. Nice room. Well kept.

Its not geared for young people. Mostly European and Southamerican older people, some couples with young kids, but not many in their early 20s.

Travelwizard1 I'm packed in the closet but not in the suitcase, to keep down on wrinkles. 14 day cruise I need to pack for a week then take half of that. I am notorious for overpacking. Got out the suitcases from the basement. Good start?🚊👍🚢⚓

MSC is trying to get more American but their customers are still mostly European cruisers . I like meeting people from all over the world. I think it's cool. Now mind you there are a holes on every continent😂👍

That does seem like an odd place for steel drum music. You would think Italian music would be better by the shops and caribbean music be outside by the pool.

Ya! I wished the Steel Drum payer was outside near the pool not inside near the boutiques and Gelato counter!
