Itineraries

MSC Divina itinerary program is based on 7-day Caribbean cruises from Miami FL , and 7-day Western Mediterranean sailings from Civitavecchia-Rome , Naples and Barcelona . Divina operates cheap Transatlantic repositioning crossings between Europe and Florida.

In 2019, a small fleet of 3 MSC ships will offer Caribbean roundtrips from Miami Florida - Seaside , Meraviglia and Divina.

In early-June 2020, MSC announced that in 2021 Divina will be homeported in Port Canaveral Florida USA for 3- to 7-night roundtrips with departures on Thursdays and Sundays. Port Canaveral is the cruise port to Orlando City - one of the country's most popular travel destinations and also considered Walt Disney's "capital city".

  • Divina's Maiden Voyage from the new MSC homeport departed on September 16, 2021. This was also the ship's first commercial voyage following the pause due to the Coronavirus crisis.
  • The itineraries (3-4-7-day in length) visit call ports in The Bahamas ( Nassau , MSC Ocean Cay ) and Mexico ( Cozumel , Costa Maya ).
  • Divina's 2021 homeporting in Port Canaveral was between Sept 16 - Nov 21, followed by homeporting in Miami.
  • The next Port Canaveral season was scheduled for 2022 (starting on April 8).
  • The voyages can be combined into B2Bs/back-to-back cruises with lengths 10-11-14-days.

MSC Divina Review: A Spectacular Caribbean Cruise Option for Families

The MSC Divina is beautifully conceived, relatively new cruise ship that departs from Miami and sails to ports throughout the Caribbean. In this MSC Divina review, we discuss our experience on the ship to help you decide if this Caribbean cruise is a good option for your travel plans.

This article may contain references to some of our advertising partners. Should you click on these links, we may be compensated. For more about our advertising policies, read our  full disclosure statement  here.

This MSC Divina review is a complete and accurate portrayal of our experience on the ship. Since honesty is the best policy, please note that some of the links are from our sponsors. Thanks in advance for using them to book your trips. Enjoy!

Not too long ago, I had a pretty jaded view of cruising and cruisers in general.

I thought that cruising was for people too cheap to splurge for a “real vacation” and that I surely wouldn’t like being stuck on some random ship for a week or more.

I thought that all cruise food would be akin to eating in a high school cafeteria. I thought that, due to the fact cruises have you captive on the boat for days, I would be nickeled and dimed from morning until night.

I thought the ship would be crowded and get dirty as a result. I thought my kids would be annoyed that we couldn’t sit on the beach all day. But, most of all, I thought we wouldn’t like it.

I was wrong. Dead wrong.

My thoughts have definitely changed after spending 11 nights and 12 days on the MSC Divina in January of 2018. Our cruise left from Miami and visited an array of beautiful islands, but there was much more to our trip than our stops at port.

The ship was fun, beautiful, and bright – and quite frankly everything I thought it wouldn’t be. While I typically thought of cruising as a mode of transportation in the past, I now see that time on the ship can be pretty darn enjoyable, too.

This entire trip was rather enlightening for me – a budget traveler who loves luxury and all-inclusive resorts. I feel so strongly about our time on the ship (and had so much fun) that I wanted to break the entire thing down into an epic review. If you have any questions at all about MSC Cruises or the MSC Divina, I want to answer them. So here goes.

Embarkation Day

The first day of our cruise was probably the worst, mostly because we’re basically first-time cruisers who had no idea what was going on. We also flew from Indianapolis to Miami, stayed overnight in a hotel, and carried a ton of luggage around that entire time. We were a little frazzled by the time we arrived, so we stressed out easily.

It did take an hour or so to get from the cruise terminal onto the ship. We stood in line and waited for our turn to submit our cruise tickets and get our “cruise card” – the key to our room and everything else on the ship.

caribbean cruise msc divina

This was easily my least favorite part of the cruise. But since it takes a while to get 4,000 people on a ship, it’s understandable. It took us an hour from the sidewalk to being on the ship, and that’s not too bad.

We hung around for a while and were able to get in our room around 3:00 p.m. Our room was great, by the way, but we’ll go over that in more detail later.

At 4:45 p.m. on embarkation day, we did the drill where you go to your safe spot on the ship and learn how to put your life jacket on. I have read a lot of reviews about how bad this is on the MSC Divina since they do the drill in four different languages, but I thought it was really seamless. It took maybe 15 minutes from beginning to end, and it was done. From that moment forward, our cruise was a dream come true!

Our Cabin on the MSC Divina

We had a balcony cabin on the MSC Divina – room 9015 to be exact. Our room was perfect for the four of us, with myself and my husband on a queen bed and our kids (ages 6 and 8) sharing a fold-out couch.

At first, I was a little worried that our kids would sleep on a fold-out, mostly because the couch took up the whole room when extended. Fortunately, our amazing cabin steward Christian folded up the bed every morning and folded it back up at night. I had no idea he would do this, so it was a big relief!

Our room was super clean and it was stocked daily with toilet paper. They cleaned and refreshed our room several times per day, and we never went without fresh towels for showers or the pool. You’re supposed to get a fresh pool towel every day on the MSC Divina, but I know there were days when our towels were traded out 2-3 times. For future reference, they also have a towel area by the outdoor pool during the day where you can trade in for a fresh towel whenever you want.

Our bathroom was also nice. The shower doors fold in to make more room, and that really helped us save space. I also like the fact that, no matter the hour, we had super hot water in the shower.

Pools on the MSC Divina

I wanted to go over the pools on the MSC Divina in-depth, mostly because there are so many of them. We have been on one cruise before a few years ago, and that ship only had one pool and maybe 2 hot tubs. The MSC Divina has three pools and probably 6 or 7 hot tubs which were never full.

First off, there’s a really nice outdoor pool area in the center of the ship. The pool itself is HUGE for a cruise pool, and there are several hot tubs adjacent to it and on the deck above. There’s also a huge TV and stage in this pool area where movies are shown at night and aerobics classes are held during the day.

caribbean cruise msc divina

My favorite thing about the outdoor pool deck was the fact there were so many shaded tables around. We could always find an empty table to sit at, and this provided the perfect place to relax while the kids swam.

The MSC Divina also has a really nice indoor pool area. It has a retractable roof that they open when it’s really sunny, but it stayed closed for most of our trip. This was another nice pool area, and it had the most hot tubs – I think 3 or 4. Surprisingly, the hot tubs were also hot – not luke warm.

caribbean cruise msc divina

There was another adults-only pool in the back of the ship near the garden bar. We never swam in it, but it looked great and provided more of an adult atmosphere.

Dining on MSC Divina

The dining on the MSC Divina really stood out for me. We eat fairly simply and don’t eat meat, but we were impressed with the ship’s offerings. We were assigned the 6:00 p.m. dining time in the Villa Rosa dining room, and we had a few really great meals there. I loved the dining room because it was so fancy and elegant. It was also a great alternative when we got sick of the buffet.

caribbean cruise msc divina

But really, the buffet was fine. We ate there for dinner most nights. They had a revolving array of food that changed all the time, including a carving station, a Mediterranean section, fresh cheeses, fresh fruit, a salad station, a kids area with foods like pasta and chicken nuggets, and even ethnic food. You could also get hamburgers, cheeseburgers, and fries all the time.

Oh, and the pizza! The pizza was amazing. Even if you’re vegan, they had cheese-less pizza you would love. We never really got too tired of the buffet.

The only downside to the buffet is the fact that it can be chaotic. It can also be hard to find a seat if you go at a peak time – like at 8:00 a.m. on a port day.

A lot of people in the Cruise Critic reviews have complained about how their food gets cold while they look for a table. My advice is this: Find a table, sit your hat or sunglasses down, then get your food. It makes life much easier.  I saw a lot of people walking around with food looking for a table, and it just annoyed me. It makes no sense, so stop.

In every case, we eventually found a table, searching for 5 minutes at most. Honestly, it wasn’t that big of a deal. Just find a table before you get your food and you’ll be fine.

caribbean cruise msc divina

We also ate at the Eataly Italian restaurant on the ship once. This is a meal you pay for that is not free. It was good! I also found it relatively reasonable in terms of pricing, as was everything else on the ship. It was a nice change for once to have a sit-down meal. We all got pasta, and you get a free glass of champagne when you dine. It’s hard to beat that.

Last but not least, the ship has a little sports bar with some basic appetizers and mains you can order during certain hours. We had the spinach and artichoke dip with chips, but they also had wings, mozzarella sticks, and sandwiches. It was really good, and it was nice that this was included in the cruise price as well.

Over all, I thought the food was really good. There were a few things I tried that I didn’t like, but the great thing is that you could always just go back and eat more. We even made a few late night trips to the buffet for pizza and dessert, and that was a nice treat!

Bars on the MSC Divina

I didn’t get any good pictures of the bars on the MSC Divina, but let’s suffice it to say they were everywhere. Bars we went to that I can think of include (but aren’t limited to):

  • A gorgeous piano bar in the center of the ship
  • A fun “jazz” bar with a really good band every night (FYI, we never heard any jazz)
  • A few outdoor pool bars
  • The bar by the indoor pool
  • The sports bar where, of course, they have a bunch of TVs playing sports
  • The Garden Bar in the adults-only section

There were other bars, too. We drank a lot of beer but also had some mixed drinks.

Speaking of drinks, the ship had special theme nights with featured drinks, one of which was the Aperol Spritz. Since we drink these all the time in Italy, we had to have some of those. We also had limoncello, and I had some generic Chambord (raspberry liquor) which can be found all over the ship.

I thought pricing of the drinks was really reasonable. Beers were typically between $5 and $5.50, and mixed drinks were usually $7-$8. This is less than I pay for drinks at bars in my area, so I was happy about that.

The bartenders were always friendly and quick to help. No matter where we got drinks, we never waited more than a a few minutes. I read a lot of reviews saying the bars had slow service and the bartenders on the MSC Divina aren’t friendly, but this is simply untrue. I spent 12 days on the ship, so I should know.

Entertainment on the MSC Divina

Let me just be honest here – we didn’t go to any shows on the ship. I know this is terrible! We heard people rant and rave about how great the shows are, but we just never made it.

caribbean cruise msc divina

Well, that’s a lie. We caught the tail end of some acrobatic show that looked really fun, but that was it. I also snuck in when it was empty to take a picture. BAHAHAHA!

I know people enjoyed the shows, but we enjoyed the fact we could have free reign over the bars and the pools while most of the people were in the shows. So, we never went.

Entertainment on the ship was great otherwise. The people who work on the MSC Divina are always trying to make sure you have fun. They had really good bands singing different types of music in various bars most of the time, but especially in the evenings. The pool decks were always lively with music or contests. Basically, a good time was had by all throughout the ship.

caribbean cruise msc divina

If you’re a gambler, the MSC Divina also has a pretty decent-sized casino. It had a bunch of slots and some fun table games like Roulette and Blackjack. We went once, made a deposit, and never went back. (Unfortunately for Greg, and fortunately for our bank account, there is no craps table.) I hate losing money and gambling isn’t really my thing, but I’ll admit it was fun.

Kid’s Club on the MSC Divina

If you have kids, the MSC Divina is an incredible place to spend a family vacation! This was easily one of the best parts of our trip, and for more reasons than one.

The crazy thing is, we’re not usually big on sending our children to kid’s clubs. We have stayed at a lot of all-inclusive resorts with supervised clubs, and we usually only use them for an hour here or there to give mom and dad a break.

The kid’s club on the MSC Divina is a huge step above any other club we have ever experienced.

I kid you not, my kids would have gone to the club every day all day if we let them. We let them visit the club a lot, but we had to tell them “no” other times just so we could spend time with them!

The kid’s club on the ship is much more than just a babysitter. They did dozens of fun activities with the kids, including arts and crafts, language lessons, dance parties, and talent shows. I think my kids came home with some kind of prize almost every day from the club. They won little stuffed animals, coloring kits, and more. These prizes were just one of the little touches we loved, mostly because they made the trip really special for our girls.

On port days, you could leave your kids in the club all day while you went ashore. We only did this at one port, Curacao, and only because there was a special party that day they couldn’t stand to miss. On ship days, the club was open 9:00 a.m. to 12:45 p.m., 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m., and 6:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. For a fee, you could also sign up for late night hours, but we never did.

My kids enjoyed going to the morning and the afternoon sessions, but I think they had the most fun at night because they had lots of “parties” and took a group trip to the buffet for dinner.

The kid’s club is one of the main reasons we are booking another cruise on the MSC Divina over Christmas in late 2018. My kids cried the last night on the ship – like bawled uncontrollably – because they had so much fun and didn’t want to leave. I promised we would go back, so we are.

Service on the MSC Divina

I read a lot of reviews of the MSC Divina before our cruise because, well, I’m a travel writer and that’s what we do. After reading some of the negative comments about the workers on the ship and the service received, I am shocked at the bad information people have put out there.

The people who work on this ship are kind, hard-working, and helpful. They greet you when they see you, and they go out of their way to make sure you have what you need. I think every single day someone bent over backwards to help us, whether that meant carrying drinks across the dining room or giving my kids a special treat of some kind.

Honestly, I was blown away by the service and professionalism of everyone on board. I cannot think of a single instance over a 12-day cruise where a single person was rude or unhelpful.

If you experience bad service or rude workers on the MSC Divina, please be assured that you are the problem .  I’m not saying this to hurt your feelings or make you feel bad, but it needs to be said.

The people on this ship work long hours and have some of the best attitudes I have ever seen. The only way you could possibly feel negatively toward them is if you are having some sort of internal crisis. Please people, be nice and the world becomes a better place!

Tips for Saving on the MSC Divina

Okay, so I’ve basically covered every aspect of the ship I can think of. Now on to the best part. Even though the MSC Divina is a super awesome ship, it is not expensive. In fact, MSC Cruises in general are some of the most affordable out there, partially because of their low prices but also because kids under 18 cruise free on a lot of itineraries.

With that being said, here are some of my best tips for saving money when you book your cruise and once you’re on the ship:

  • Sign up for a travel credit card.  There are several travel credit cards that can help you make getting to your cruise free or almost free. Make sure to check out our list of the best travel rewards cards for some ideas.
  • Don’t over splurge on your cabin.  We had a balcony cabin on this cruise. It was nice, but I saw a lot of interior cabins in passing and they looked great, too. If your budget is stretched to go on this cruise, booking a lower class cabin is a great way to save. With so much to do on the ship, you’re rarely in your room anyway.
  • Buy a drink package if you drink a lot.  If you’re a big drinker who doesn’t want to pay for each individual drink, definitely check out the drink packages on the MSC Divina. I think it was around $400 per adult for our 11-night cruise. That’s not super cheap, but it could be a big money-saver if you’re someone who likes to drink a lot on the ship.
  • Prepay for laundry service if you need it.  Because our cruise was so long, I prepaid $50 to have the ship staff wash 40 pieces of our laundry. This was a lot cheaper than paying for individual pieces of laundry to be washed once you left on your trip. I will definitely do this again. Packing for a 12-day cruise is really hard when you don’t have a lot of extra clothes. Having laundry at our disposal was a game-changer, and it also helped us pack less.
  • Book spa services 4-5 days into your cruise.  The MSC Divina starts offering sales on spa treatments a few days into your sailing. If you’re flexible on your spa appointment times and don’t mind waiting, you can potentially save up to 50 percent. I saw one treatment that started at $150 go down to $79 by the end of our cruise.
  • Join the MSC Cruises loyalty program.  MSC Cruises has a loyalty program called Voyager’s Club that awards you with special perks. Once you have gone on at least one cruise with MSC Cruises, you also get 5 percent off most future cruises. Definitely sign up so you can earn points for all your future cruises with the cruise line.

Our Cruise Stops on the MSC Divina

Although our cruise stops on the MSC Divina don’t really have anything to do with the ship, I still wanted to talk about where we went and the parts I enjoyed. Our itinerary on this ship was a little different due to some changes after the hurricane season of 2017, but I loved almost every stop. Here’s a rundown of our cruise stops and how we spent our time.

I’m not going to lie – I hate St. Thomas. It’s beautiful, sure, but it’s too expensive.

I say this as someone who has been to almost every Caribbean island, including St. Thomas more than once. Even the more expensive islands like Aruba and Grand Cayman don’t hold a candle to St. Thomas in terms of outrageous costs.

When I woke up in St. Thomas on my birthday, I had a beautiful surprise waiting outside on my cabin balcony – a rainbow! That’s about where the fun ended until we got back on the ship.

caribbean cruise msc divina

We took a taxi to Magens Bay which cost $8 per person. Yes, $32 one-way for the four of us – so $64 round-trip for a 15 minute ride. The worst part is, we were in a shared, open air taxi with 16 other people. Seriously! We were crammed in like sardines both ways, and for way too much money.

Quite frankly, Magens Bay was crowded and overrated. It was $14 to rent a single chair. The beach was so crowded there was barely a space for chairs anyway, so oh well. I’ve had back surgery, so I mainly just stood there seething the entire time. But hey, at least my kids had fun!

caribbean cruise msc divina

To salvage what was left of my birthday, we stayed at the beach for just over an hour and went back to the ship. After that, my birthday was superb. MSC Cruises must keep track of birthdays somehow because they sent me a card and even had a cake for me at dinner. That was such a nice touch!

The lesson here: Stay on the boat in St. Thomas. It will be great because you’ll have all the pools and space on the ship to yourself.

Antigua is an island I had never been to before this trip. Now that I’ve sat on a gorgeous beach in Antigua drinking beer for a day, I am hooked. I was immediately impressed by the fact that a one-way taxi ride to Dickenson Bay was only $12 for the four of us. The taxi driver even set up a time to pick us up and bring us back to the ship for the same price.

caribbean cruise msc divina

Dickenson Bay is a gorgeous beach right next to the Sandals Resort in Antigua. You can rent chairs for $5 or little cabanas for $20. There are a few places for lunch. I think we spent $40 for the four of us, so not bad.

I loooooooooooooooooooove Antigua.

caribbean cruise msc divina

We went to the Hilton Barbados during our time on this island. The taxi ride was only $20 per way, and a nice guy named “Gooseman” set up a pickup time to take us back to the ship. It was all rather convenient after we got through the cruise port chaos.

caribbean cruise msc divina

The Hilton Barbados is absolutely divine. All the rooms had an ocean view, they have a club lounge for elite guests, and the beach is to-die-for. The beach is also huge. We got there late in the morning and still found beachfront chairs and an umbrella. They also had a beach attendant setting up chairs wherever you want.

I will be coming back to this hotel one day, as I really enjoyed our time there and I love Barbados anyway.

caribbean cruise msc divina

I had never been to Grenada before, so I was really shocked when our boat approached this gorgeous, crazy-green, mountainous paradise. Grenada is truly beautiful, and I couldn’t believe what I saw.

caribbean cruise msc divina

We spent the day at the Mount Cinnamon Resort, which has an ideal spot on Grand Anse Beach. The views here are unbelievable, the water is clear and warm, and you will love it.

The hotel itself is also spectacular, with amazing views from every room and accommodations that are as big as three-bedrooms. This hotel is one my husband and I want to come back to alone without kids. I can’t think of a more romantic place to spend time together.

caribbean cruise msc divina

My kids wanted to go to the kid’s club for a special event on the day we stopped in Curacao. We took advantage of that fact and parked our butts on a party beach. Mambo Beach is only 15 minutes from the cruise port, but it’s a great place to drink beer and swim with rocks sheltering you from the waves. I am not going to lie; this is not a cultural experience by any means. It was affordable though. Getting into the beach is only $3.50 per person and you get a chair. Beers were about $5, less if you bought a bucket at a time (which we did). Good times.

caribbean cruise msc divina

I already loved Aruba, but I am even more in love now. We were able to snag a room at the Holiday Inn Aruba for our day on the island, and this resort is amazing! The Holiday Inn occupies the best stretch of Palm Beach, and that really says a lot. The rooms are big, the property is clean, there are pools everywhere, and the beach…….the beach is out of this world. I will likely book this hotel for a family vacation in the future. Just saying!

MSC Divina Review: Final Thoughts

If you are thinking of booking a cruise on the MSC Divina (or any other MSC ship), I would definitely recommend it. This was easily one of the best family vacations we’ve had over the last few years.

Holly, this is a great review! I’ve always wondered if my wife and kids would enjoy a cruise and I am guessing they would after reading this. I’ll have to figure out how to work it since there are 6 of us. I’m assuming that means 2 rooms. What cards are good for helping to pay for an MSC cruise?

I know they have family suites if you book soon enough. Otherwise two cabins would work. Fortunately, they aren’t super expensive and kids cruise free on a lot of itineraries. The Capital One Venture is a great card for cruises, so hopefully you get that one!

Thank you for the review. I am a little confused about the hotels you mentioned. Did you stay in Hotels?

No, we just went there for the day during our cruise stop! You can book your own excursions and do whatever you want. I write about hotels for a living, so I like to visit as many as possible.

This is the best review I have seen about the DIvinia. Your review is very encouraging as I have not seen many that detail a positive experience. We are frequent travelers who have cruised many times but this is our first time cruising with MSC. We usually eat dinner in the main dining room when we cruise, how dressed up did people seem when you were there? Polo shirts for the men or tie and a jacket? I hate to over pack and knowing this would be very helpful. Diana

It was pretty casual. My husband and I went to the gala night once on accident and my husband had on nice jeans and a Hawaiian shirt. He was fine. Some people do dress up but there are many, many others who just wear nice slacks and a top. Polo shirts for men would be just fine.

Hi! This is a very late question, we are taking the MSC divina cruise in Dec. Of 2019. We also have a 36 hour stop in Aruba, just curious.. so you booked a hotel room on the island as opposed to going back to the ship in the evening?

No. We just went to the hotel for the day to check it out and use the beach. We went back to the ship that night. Mostly, we wanted to see the hotel so we knew if we liked it for a possible future trip.

MSC-Divina-bowling -  Enjoy a family-friendly night out with a few games of bowling during your sailing on MSC Divina.

Carrie Finley-Bajak

Orange county, ca, cruiseclout score: 20.0, msc divina: caribbean sailings with a european flair.

Named after godmother Sophia Loren, MSC Divina — the first of MSC Cruises’  ships dedicated to North Americans — is one of the line’s most luxurious ships, with sailings from Miami to the Caribbean.

MSC Cruises has done a lot to prepare the 139,500 gross-ton MSC Divina to meet the needs of North American cruise passengers. Changes to the delivery of onboard announcements, signage and service standards have all been carefully modified to meed the expectations of  U.S. and Canadian cruise passengers.

Who will like sailing on MSC Divina

With 1,751 staterooms, MSC Divina is a great choice for all kinds of cruise passengers, whether you're seeking luxury, family, corporate, LGBT, singles or multi-generational cruising. 

Where MSC Divina sails

Home port: Miami

Destinations:  MSC Divina sails the Caribbean year-round with a variety of 3- to 18-night cruises to destinations such as Cozumel , Costa Maya , Ocho Rios , Belize , Nassau , Montego Bay , Cartagena and elsewhere.

About Ratings & awards

Top dining options

Black crab & villa rosa .

The Black Crab and Villa Rosa are the two formal dining room restaurants on MSC Divina. Overall the food was excellent. Ask the head waiter for suggestions because when I did, I got amazing service, piping hot food and things that I would not have been inclined to try.

For example, try the Pumpkin Ravioli – #yum.  Ask the wait-person which of the pastas is made fresh that day: It’s totally worth the extra calories. The strip steak that is offered all time was marginal, however the prime rib and fillet offered as a nightly special on two other occasions were exceptional. I would recommend that carnivores (and vegetarians to some extent) head to Eataly Steakhouse for a delectable dining experience for meat eaters.

Enjoy an evening in the luxurious setting of the exclusive Le Muse dining room, available to Yacht Club members.

Le Muse:   The great news is that this dining facility has amazing cuisine. The bad news (unless you're a member) is that it is for the exclusive use of MSC Yacht Club guests. I found the cuisine and service to rival that on any luxury cruise ship I have been on.

Calumet and Manitou  offer self-service buffet for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Make sure to sample the pizza here because it’s really tasty. Don’t expect to see a Las Vegas-sized buffet extravaganza. Divina has enough options at the buffet, but there are plenty of other places to sit down and relax over a nice meal – think Mediterranean way of life.  Convenient yes, but with so many people eating at the same time, it can be a chore trying to fend off your co-passengers.

Great for families : There are two ways that MSC Divina accommodates children and families during dining. One thing to ask about is  MSC Cruises’  MSC Happy Dinners, where children select a meal from the kids’ menu which is served in the dining room while the adults enjoy their first course. Once the children have finished their meal, members of the kids’ club staff collect them to have fun with their friends.

Kid-friendly food on the children’s menu is a great option for young cruisers. Options include soup, pizza, pasta (such as spaghetti Bolognese or Carbonara), hamburgers, fish, hot dogs, served with sides like fries, vegetables or fruit.

Specialty dining options

Like other cruise lines, MSC Cruises offers passengers an opportunity to experience alternative dining. These restaurants offer unique experiences for an additional rate. For those passengers who are inclined to pay the nominal surcharge, I don’t think you will be disappointed. Your options are:

Eataly Steakhouse  is designed after Eataly’s famed Manzo steakhouse in New York City.  Eately Steakhouse on MSC Divina gives cruise passengers a chance to experience the popular chain restaurant while on vacation. For me, it was great because we don’t have access to Eataly in California. Verdict? I loved it!

Galaxy Disco – Restaurant:   If you find yourself on deck 16 in the Galaxy Disco wondering where the heck the restaurant is, just look for the bar and the windows that overlook the main swimming pool and the sea. The Galaxy Disco – Restaurant serves a luxurious brunch on select sea days (for a nominal fee) as well as dinner, which is a la carte pricing.

Piazza Del Doge  provides cruisers with an opportunity to sit back and enjoy a gelato (for an additional cost – try at least once), a pastry or cupcake (also at a nominal cost).

Caffè Italia in partnership with Segafredo Zanetti  offers typical Italian favorites, from full-bodied espressos to flawlessly foamed cappuccinos, the Segafredo coffee and chocolate menu also includes a variety of specialist coffees and chocolate drinks.

Nightlife options

Divina offers a wide variety of bars, each with its own ambience, specialities and sometimes entertainment. Some top options:

  • La Cantina Di Bacco (Italian): The casual wine bar and pizzeria is easy to overlook with so many great places to relax on the ship. It’s worth making your way to deck 7 for wine from Divina's well-stocked cellar, along with fine beers from around the world. Pair it with authentic Italian pizza or with tapas featuring local specialties.
  • Golden Jazz Bar :  Relax beneath the bubble chandeliers of the Golden Jazz Bar with a jazz-inspired drink menu. Sip a rare whiskey, or enjoy cognac, aged grappa and more.
  • Sports Bar  is a solid venue for good “American-style” pub food. The decor here bar is bright and cheery, and there are plenty of TV monitors to catch up on sporting action or scores. The menu will satisfy those looking for chicken wings or other bar food vittles.

Entertainment 

Top off your evening on MSC Divina with entertainment in the 1,600-seat Pantheon Theatre.

Beyond the theater, look for live music from jazz to classical throughout the ship, gaming in Casino Veneziano, a 4D Cinema, Formula-1 Simulator and more. There is not a bad seat in the house: The 1,600-seat Pantheon Theater provides an exquisite ambiance for surreal theatricality and dazzling performances, with a different show each evening. MSC Cruises has some of the finest entertainment at sea.

MSC Yacht Club: A luxury retreat

Those cruise passengers wanting a luxury cruise experience will want to book passage  in the private enclave of MSC Yacht Club . The MSC Yacht Club is the lines' signature "ship-within-a-ship" concept, with 69 private suites on board. MSC Yacht Club guests can indulge in comfort and convenience, from their own personal butler and 24-hour concierge service to complimentary alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages available any time of the day throughout MSC Yacht Club's exclusive lounges and pool area.

The MSC Yacht Club experience is a great option for people who want to get away from it all to enjoy some peace and quiet, great service and wonderful meals at Le Muse Restaurant. Members can also just step back outside the Yacht Club’s ship-within-a-ship environment to enjoy entertainment, specialty dining, movies at night, shopping, the spa, fitness classes or the gym, a cocktail at one of the lounges, etc.

The Yacht Club is located toward the bow of the ship and is accessible with a member’s keycard. There are 69 suites served by butlers who help passengers throughout their cruise.  Yacht Club guests have a private dining room called Le Muse as well as access to the spacious Top Sail Lounge and Bar on deck 15. The unobstructed, 180-degree views of the sea from the Top Sail Lounge are impressive, by the way. There is a concierge desk, which is staffed 24/7, and a private pool.

The best perks of the Yacht Club are sensational food in Le Muse Restaurant, butler service, more space, a private pool with plenty of space (remember the ship can accommodate 4000 cruise guests), and amenities like bottled water, sodas, specialty coffees, cocktails, or wine with dinner. Priority embarkation and debarkation are also an added bonus.

Other amenities & options

  • A diva-worthy grand entrance features two dramatic Swarovski crystal staircases and a classical quartet to welcome you.
  • Stroll past the 150 fountains of the Aqua Park with a poolside gelato bar.
  • Try a Balinese massage in the exotic MSC Aurea Spa, graced with natural stone and wood finishes and floor-to-ceiling ocean views.
