Review summary

We ate at the specialty restaurants four times because the food at the included restaurants were not good at all. If you want something different than what they offer there is an upcharge, this is not the case with other curiselines. As for the entertainment, the only one we found that was somewhat good was the comedy show. Sorry MSC but you lost our business, you need to cruise back across the Atlantic ocean and attend to the Europeans you are used too.

Very small shower. I'm not a big guy and my wife is smaller and we had a issues with showering, I can only imagine how larger people could use the shower. No room next to the bed to access the closet, they need to remove the couch and add a chair to open the space. As far as the cleaning staff, they are great!

We sailed Divina and enjoyed the European flair very much...sailing on Seaside this Saturday...they add a bit of class to cruising and IMO put all the other cruise lines to shame. Recently sailed on the Allure and RCL standards are going down fast along ..they need to ditch the "kids sail free"...it is making the ships a kid zone !

We loved our experience on Divina as well that we are booked for the Seaside in November. We are pleased that MSC is in the Carribean bringing a bit of international flavour.

To each their own. We loved the shows and the international flavor of the passengers on the ship. We booked the Merivaglia in 2020 because of our experience on the Seaside.
