Review summary

Private island was nice. I’m a foodie so I will never go on this cruise line again. I’m going on celebrity in February the only cruise line I’ve not been on. If it’s not good then Royal Carnival. Ncl. It will continue to get my business.

Embarkation

4 out of 5
Very fast. Best part of cruise

Ship experiences

MSC cruiseline is very different to what people can expect from cruiselines like Carnival cruiseline or Royal Caribbean.
