MSC Cruise?

Has anyone been on an MSC cruise around the Caribbean?

I have just booked the Yatch Club Suite for me and the GF and would love to know what everyone else's experience is

Thank you! I did have a read on cruise critic and there are some very mixed reviews but I know how picky some people can be!

No I haven't but I'd love to try a Yacht Club suite. Relatives really enjoyed MSC, said the food was fabulous. My slight worry would be the smoking areas, I think there are more than on other lines, but don't quote me. And DH doesn't like not understanding foreign languages so he would be hard to persuade to go.
One followed us around the Caribbean in February and everyone we spoke to said it was great.

I don't smoke and I think that will drive me mad as well! Hopefully there isn't many people smoking!
I will certainly let you know how it goes so you can persuade DH!
We got a fantastic price for the upgrade it should have been £600pp for a balcony and we paid £1100pp for the Yacht club and that includes drinks etc!

We are doing MSC Divina 7 night Caribbean cruise for the first time in a couple of weeks time and booked a 2 for 1 Balcony deal for Fantastica class and Ultimate drinks package. We also got a free upgrade to Aurea Class when checking in so really looking forward to the extra perks. Having done DCL 5 times and being GOLD members MSC have a loyalty match so we are GOLD on MSC without having stepped on the Ship yet and looking forward to trying another cruise line.

we did the MSC Opera 2 years ago from Southampton around the Med. It was our first cruise and the kids went for free. We went with parents and grandparents who are seasoned cruisers and were not impressed. They described it has Butlins on sea (how rude!). We however were very pleased and loved they catered for all nationalities. Yes there was smoking in some areas but we just kept away. food was nice too :-)

How to you get this with MSC ?

We are also gold with DCL and was on the Divina in last August but never knew about this loyalty match. Good to know if we decide to sail with MSC again.
