Review summary

Overall a great experience! We've been on many cruises, but our first on MSC. I'd put it above Carnival and below Royal Caribbean and we would definitely sail on MSC again.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
So easy and moved quickly with no issues at all!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
The food was decent and definitely edible, but I've had much better on other ships. The main dining room food was good, but not great. It was nice being able to order additional appetizers, entrees or desserts as we wanted. The fruit is delicious and as many have said, the pizza on the buffet is the best!

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
The slide was fun for the kids, but long lines. I wish there were more options that we could all do like putt putt.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
All three shows were excellent! The comedian was funny, the punk show was so good with the amazing acts and the final Michael Jackson show was the best.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Everyone we encountered were friendly and helpful!

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The main areas were constantly being cleaned, and the ship was beautiful.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Nice size room for a cruise ship and the balcony was a nice touch!

Ship tip

The lights in your room won't come on until you put your key card in the slot by the door.

Ports of call

Ocean Cay MSC Marine Reserve, Bahamas

5 out of 5
We loved having the island all to ourselves! It never felt crowded and was clean with a great buffet on the island while exploring and going on our excursions.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Quick and easy! I so enjoyed having the express checkout so we didn't have to wait for our luggage.
