Review summary

I went on this cruise to relax and unwind. I have no complaints! MSC was excellent for my family and me, and I would love to go again.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Embarkation was fast and easy! It took roughly 45 minutes from arriving at the port to sitting at the bar having our first drink. We did have priority boarding, so I don't know if that played a significant role. However, we were impressed because we had to do covid testing and wait for results.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
The food and drinks were good. This was my first MSC cruise, so I did my best to block out all hostile critics and reviews and have an open mind. I ate at the main dining room most of the time and was delighted (Great service as well). I did try the buffet and found the food was just ok. Not bad, but nothing to jump around about. Plenty of selections for my family and me.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
I enjoyed the pools and hot tubs! The spa was also fantastic. I highly recommend the hot stone massage.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
The performers were pretty good. My family was entertained, so I was satisfied. I will say a better selection of singers would make MSC's performances better quality, in my opinion.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
I couldn't ask for better service or staff throughout the entire cruise!

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Beautiful Ship!!!

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Great cabin! It was a typical standard balcony cabin. On my cruise, we didn't have neighbors on either side of us, so that was great. Also, we had a great view of the lighthouse show at ocean cay to enjoy that right from our balcony.

Pack your patients and come with an open mind!

Thank you. I’ll be there in 11 days. I hope. I don’t know what is so bad about MSC food to some people. I’ve been on one other MSC cruise and I don’t remember it being that match better or worse than others cruises at that price point.
