The Italian design and excellent quality finish give an expensive feel to this ship, There are many facilities not available with MSC’s older vessels, including a large Internet centre, shopping gallery with bar and upscale nightclub.
All cabins have satellite television and minibars.
The Theatre dell Opera has good seating.
The ship sails in the Caribbean and Mediterranean.
The European outlook ensures service is good while in the Mediterranean, but does improve when the ship sails into Caribbean waters and deals with the more demanding US guest.
Suitability
Families with children and teenagers and couples wanting an Italian experience are best-suited to this modern vessel. The fine decoration and good dining will suit the better-heeled customer.
Hints & Tips
Excessive noise, from announcements or piped music, is an annoyance, as are the ship’s photographers. Also be prepared to wait in line for getting on and off and while waiting for tenders at sea. Bar drinks incur a service charge.
