Review summary

MSC Divina was nice - staff and cleanliness was wonderful. Food was okay, definitely could have been better. Great for adults, not so much for kiddos. Our balcony room was awesome and the shows were great. Overall I would rate it a 7 out of 10.

Embarkation

4 out of 5
No problems, just takes a while and the communication could have been better

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Didn't go to any specialty. Buffet was okay. Main dining room was nice but quite a few dishes were bland/under-seasoned

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Pools and hot tubs were nice, some ping pong tables. Husband said the gym was good. Water slide (only 1) was okay. The arcades were lacking. The ship advertises 2, but they each only have about 8 machines and are very small. Kids club was okay. Massage was 10/10

Entertainment

Loved the shows!!

Children's Programs

4 out of 5
11 yr old refused to go, but the 7 yr old had a good time. He wasn't begging to go back though.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
Staff was very polite and attentive. Only issue we had was trying to get a room service menu, which didn't happen until the 3rd night.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
Not the best, not the worst

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Balcony was amazing. Size was agreeable (fit 2 adults and 2 children with no issue)

Ship tip

Geared more towards adults, so definitely wouldn't recommend bringing children on this cruise.

Ports of call

Miami, Florida

5 out of 5
So busy, but I'm not a city person. People walk right in front of cars. Expensive (expect to pay $50 for taxi/Uber to and from airport). Our excursion (everglades tour) was cancelled, so we ended up at MIA for about 10 hours.

Nassau, Bahamas

5 out of 5
Blue Lagoon island excursion with lunch. The lunch was terrible (hamburger/hot dog type of thing), but the beach was amazing. Would definitely do again but would look elsewhere for food.

Freeport, Grand Bahama Island Did not visit port

We stayed in the room this day since we had no excursion planned and wanted to enjoy a quiet ship for a while.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Fantastic - we got off the ship almost 2 hours earlier than was scheduled! Quick and smoothe.
