I loved my cruise wished it was longer. I’m glad I went I almost canceled due to reading and listening to so many different reviews. I’m glad I stuck to it because it was a great cruise we had so much fun!! The drinks are good and strong, stronger than Carnival and Royal that’s a plus! Can’t wait to cruise on another MSC cruise! Ciao
Embarkation
5 out of 5
Embarkation was a breeze, we used GoPort its called their Fly, Snooze, Cruise package. They pick you up at the airport take you to your hotel and in the morning take you to the cruise ship and they are there to take you to the airport after the cruise for one price. MSC moved so fast we got from port to onboard in approx 20 min! It was smooth even though there was a lot of people and we were 30 mins before our scheduled time.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
The Pan Asian specialty dining was absolutely delicious, crab cakes, lamb chops, steamed clams. The desserts not so much. The service was great and we enjoyed our night there. The main dining room was great as well, one in particular we had blackened salmon and noodles OMG! So good, salmon so flaky and moist. The Buffet, I enjoyed the buffet it had options the food was good there also. I wish they watermelon by itself instead of grouped with the melons! (Small, but I love watermelon) I fell in love with a small brownie with a fresh walnut on top!!
Room Service
5 out of 5
Room Service was great, we ordered a bucket of ice and some sandwiches and chocolate chip cookies well after midnight. It didn’t take long to get our food and it was good.

Ship Quality
5 out of 5
I didn’t encounter anything out of the ordinary or any smells. I was on the look out too, because hearing so many negative reviews from people about how they hated MSC! How they hated the food! I don’t get it and I know food is very subjective but, it was good to me. No complaints here!

Ship tip
Go with an open mind, disregard all negative reviews you may have hard and have fun!!
First time here and I loved it!! Some quiet beaches and some more upbeat depends on what you want! The food was good same as on the ship!! Drink package works on the island as well!
They had everything mapped and marked for you I thought we had a long wait, but they called our number and off the ship in a breeze. Going through customs no long line either! I will definitely be taking another MSC cruise.
I’ve read terrible reviews of ships I’ve loved, never let someone else’s opinion put you off! Some of the reviews on here are just a complete moan fest about nothing anyway. MSC wasn’t for me but I’d never tell other people not to try it, glad you tried and loved it!
