MSC Divina Review
Rating by category
Additional details
This was our first cruise with MSC and after praise from a TV show about the ship we had high expectations.
Once on board initial impressions were good. We had an inside cabin on deck 5 which was one deck below the casino and on the same deck as the main lobby for enquiries and help desk.
The lobby/atrium was quite impressive spread over three decks with the famous swarowski crystal stair cases and several bars. Bar staff, waiters and servers were all excellent with a good mix of nationalities and most with very good English.
Cabin Review
A large cabin with a comfortable Queen/King sized bed with side tables. European 220V and American 110V plugs. A well designed bathroom with shower no bath. Room under the beds for cases. A useful desk for writing up daily diary. This cabin position was ideal being close to the front elevators/lifts and a short walk towards the stern to reach the enquiries and other customer services in the atrium.The channel for viewing the bridge cam was switched off at night and was in any case pointing downward to that you could not see where the ship was going and the horizon was not visible. On all other ships we had used the bridge cam on the TV as a pseudo port hole to alert us when land was approaching as we were in an inside cabin. It would also let us know whether it was day or night outside which was useful in the mornings and evenings for catching sunrise or sunset on deck. We missed this feature a lot.The was also plenty of storage for evening wear dresses and drawers for shirts, underwear etc.A well designed inside cabin.
