My wife and I just returned back to Canada after a cruise on the MSC Orchestra. It was the February 21,2009 cruise to the western Caribbean.
First; let me tell you the good: The ships is new, large and beautiful. It was our favorite cruise ship when it comes to appearance. Lots of brass, glass, and marble. The state rooms were of average size. The public areas are roomy and nicely decorated. The ship was kept very clean. No complaints there.
We found the entertainment to be very good. The lounge shows were good and the shows in the main theater were very entertaining. I would give rate this part of our cruise very highly.
