Convinced this experience was so special due to the leadership of the captain and his team! These employees (all of them) came across genuinely happy with their jobs, and loyal to MSC. They are the reason our experience was the best of all the cruises. All the rest was secondary!

Rolando Tamayo-Waiter/Dinner- Outstanding in every way! Predicted, & Managed our every need nightly, made us feel first class! James Mingguw-Steward, kept every detail of our room as we preferred and kept it immaculate and stocked! Pool server-Can't remember the names were personable, through, kind and efficient!
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
Only wish there were more music, dancing venues. Need adult only pool! Enjoyed not having Pop-Rap-Millennial type music at pool decks (big plus)!!
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Very spacious and roomy, comfortable and wide open, big port window with wonderful view and space to open luggage. Bathroom, very comfortable and all well equipped with plenty of storage. Perfect size for a couple, could even add someone to sleep on the full-sized sofa.
Ship tip
Ask & Plan ahead- Theme or Specialty dress nights! Bring compact beach tote for port days. Don't take a watch or cell phone, practice actually disconnecting to relax & take it all in! Talk to people, engage in new conversations, be sociable!
No excursion. They are all the same! Just a bunch of duplicate merchandise at all the stores- No culture, food or anything real. All staged for cruisers. Real turn-off!

No. 1 reason to choose MSC for your choice of cruise companies! Beautiful Bliss! Prepare for a true, tropical paradise feel to this white sandy, crystal blue water! Easy and quick to access from ship, no long peer to walk on and very clean, well-kept and no pushy, trashy shops! Love it the most!!
I thought the pool on Deck 8 was adult only? Also the port at DR was awesome and especially the pools and it's free. Also the new port at Nassau is wonderful. You don't have to do an excursion to enjoy these ports.
