Review summary

For my first cruise is was phenomenal. The places were amazing, the ship was well maintained and the staff was incredibly helpful The entertainment was amazing All is all I had a really great time and would love to go cruising with MSC again

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Very smooth Although security staff could have been more helpful on where it was that you had to go

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Buffet was great, had never seen such a variety of food in one place before. Very easy to navigate The Villa Rossa was amazing, the staff were very helpful and you could pretty much order whatever you liked, which was great for me as I am a picky eater. Your needs were meet before you even knew that you needed something

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
The pools were good. It was a different experience to be in a wave pool that wasnโ€™t technically a wave pool The gym was good although it filled up quickly, you either wanted to be there first thing or a little later in the day as people did not abide by the 30 minute rule

Entertainment

5 out of 5
The stage show were fantastic, very entertaining and the performers were amazing. Never missing a beat and always kept me wrapped up in the shows

4D Cinema

5 out of 5

I had never been to a 4D cinema It was so much fun it was like riding a rollrcoaster without leaving the ship

Children's Programs

I donโ€™t have any children

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Every single crew member on board was amazing They were helpful, friendly and able to assist with all enquiries

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Everything was well kept

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
My cabin was perfect for just me A lot more spacious than I had thought it would be Although the double bed was actually two single beds put together I got used to not sleeping right in the middle as there was a slight gap. My cabin was kept clean twice a day by the crew, my bed was even turned down of a night which was a nice touch

Ship tip

Try and do as much as possible while you can

Ports of call

Miami, Florida

5 out of 5
This was only a embankment and disembarkment port No activities

Ocho Rios, Jamaica

5 out of 5
I love Jamaica I went zip lining and tubing Was very nervous to do the zip lining but it was so much fun and the tubing was very relaxing

Cartagena, Colombia

5 out of 5
Very old city

Cristobal, Panama

5 out of 5
The Panama Canal is a very interesting place It is a must see

Puerto Limon, Costa Rica

5 out of 5
We walked the city of Puerto Limon

Belize City, Belize

5 out of 5
It is a must to go to Lamanai The Mayan temples are a must see The history and beauty of them and the ability to climb something that is older than Jesus is amazing

Freeport, Grand Bahama Island

5 out of 5
The Bahamas is a beautiful place Although it is as expensive as the states I did a Jeep tour where you get to drive your own Jeep and you stop at some amazing place and learn the history of the island

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Although we were late getting off the ship due to some hold up at customs We have an otherwise smooth disembartment

Great reviews here. Iโ€™m wondering where the ship sails from? I think I would like to cruise with Divina.

Even though I have long been a Royal Caribbean loyalist, my cruise on the Divina made me rethink my loyalty. I loved that ship and I was able to get far more "perks & freebies" with a first cruise on MSC using their match status program than I would have as a Diamond Crown & Anchor member. I booked a cruise on the Seaside while I was still on the Divina. And I am looking forward to the Meraviglia to come to the caribbean next year.
