Great trip but the ship is not handicap friendly. Too many stairs, no walk in pool, no hands free doors and dining area too close. Private Island not worth getting off the ship because activities are corney. Should have live music, dancing and kid appar

Review summary

I think the cruise line is great but need to update the DIvina specifically. I would go on another cruse with MSC to see if the issues on this one is the same..holding off judging.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Smooth and friendly

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Buffet was good, main dining was a disappointment, food served warm wonderful staff. Drinks were good but the packages are not worth the price unless you are a huge drinker. Compared to Carnival, the drink package was a rip off.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

Limited PA announcements to remind people of activities resulting in missed opportunities. Daily schedule was given out late to plan for the next day.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

Great

Children's Programs

NO kids

Service and Staff

4 out of 5

Loved the staff

Ship Quality

3 out of 5

As mentioned previously, the ship needs to be updated because there are too many stairs. Stairs to the pool, stairs to the hot tub, steps into the shower. No automatic hands free doors.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

Everything was fab except the shower.

Ship tip

It is a beautiful ship. The 3 day cruise is perfect for a short get away. Nassau was great but short. Ocean Cay is beautiful but nothing to do. it is better to stay on the ship vs going ashore.

Thanks for the review. People either love or hate MSC. I cruised with them in January for the first time and loved it and thought Ocean Cay was by far the best private island I have been to. Thankfully they have tried to make it as natural as possible without water slides, wave pools, amusement rides, etc.
