MSC Divina Cruise Reviews for Romantic to Europe from Venice

Did our first cruise ever, and it was fantastic. The Cruise ship was huge. We stayed in Venice a few days prior to boarding the MSC Divina for our 7 day cruise in the Mediterranean. We had a balcony room on the 12th deck. I was a little concerned about being on a ship and sea sickness but it wasn't a problem and you could hardly feel the movement on the ship. Food was in abundance and ...

We normally cruise with Thomson and I know that is thought to be the budget end of the cruise industry. This time we chose MSC and the new ship Divina, so 4 of us (2 couples) eagerly boarded the ship in Venice. Embarcation was long but reasonably well organised. We were very impressed by our Balcony cabin. Also the whole ship was more glamorous that we were used too so we were very happy. That is ...

Overall, the MSC Divina is an enjoyable ship. The ship is simply the most elegant ship we've been on, but service is where MSC seems to be lacking. The ship needs more open deck space, especially at the buffet area. There was never anyplace to sit during breakfast/lunch. I'd never experienced this problem on Carnival and we were on a full ship on the Breeze in the Med last fall, so I'm pretty sure ...

This was our third cruise on MSC. Unfortunately it didn' t go as smoothly as the previous ones. The main reason: The human factor. The attitude towards the passengers is simply too laid back. The ship is beautiful and very well maintained. The cabins (balcony) are somewhat smaller than on the older MSC ships (e.g. Lirica), but still nice and comfortable, Embarkation and disembarkation in Venice ...

We sailed on the Divina a few weeks ago. The ship is beautiful and huge. We have sailed with Holland Amer, RCL, Celebrity,and NCL but not MSC before. A few things we noticed: People smoke everywhere. Not used to that in North America. Very few english speaking passengers so a very multicultural experience which we quite enjoyed. Embarkation was chaotic and took much longer than it should have. ...

Having just returned from our twelfth cruise with the eastern Mediterranean route on the MSC Divina, we are stumped at the abundance of negative reviews we had read in advance. Our experience was just the opposite. No cruise is perfect but the MSC Divina came pretty darn close for us. Yes, we had some reservations prior to our departure. First, we've always been most comfortable on ships ...

We arrived at the port to board the ship, DISASTER. We had to wait and wait for our bags to be checked in.There was some cover, but a lot of people had to stand in the blazing sun and this included many elderly people.After checking in our bags we were left to make our way to check in, no signs to show you the way, with the result you had people walking around the port looking for the check in, ...

My husband, myself and our 14 year old daughter booked a back to back cruise of the western and eastern mediteranean. This was our 2nd cruise. We booked with MSC mainly due to the good price. The first ship we embarked on was the Divina, the second the Splendida. We loved both the ships, they were bright, spotlessly clean and just so beautiful. If I had to chose one, I would choose the Divina ...

My husband and I are just back off the MSC Divina Eastern Med cruise. We had read all the reviews before we left but our experience was nothing bad like the reviews. We travelled without our kids so the family areas we didn't venture into at all. The boat is magnificence and we had a lovely balcony room on deck 12. The way the boat is done is amazing - every light fixtures on the boat is a ...

Fantastic ship, very clean and cabin/excursion/resturant staff very helpful and polite. We went on our first holiday without our children and did not expect to be on a ship overun with other people's children. As a primary schoolteacher I love children but do not want them running riot in the evenings in EVERY area of the ship. There are no adult only areas unless you pay for Top 18 which we did ...
