Embarkation very straightforward and easy as was disembarkation! We were disappointed with food on board and selection very much same everyday was not that impressed with restaurant food either ! The best meals we had were in the speciality restaurant we went twice ! We found a lot of very rude passengers on board ! Two of our excursions cancelled! The places we visited we did enjoy however! The value for money was good !

Myself, my husband and my son - balcony cabin. The extra space was good, however, the sofa bed was against the dresser, which had a stool underneath, therefore unable to sit at it to dry my hair etc. I had to sit on a cushion on the metal frame of the bed. The sockets for plugs were so low down - almost against the dresser, my plugs (being European and American) didn't fit. We had to hire an extension cable from reception - $30, which was refunded on leaving. These were the only sockets, so charging 3 phones and using hairstyler, wasn't great. The entertainment was good but no Broadway type shows compared to other cruiselines . Lovely lounge and bar areas and singers, musicians etc were all good and always something going on. Outside entertainment really good. Deck parties really good. Silent disco was great. The main dining room menu was fine, but a bit repetitive and the meat was sometimes fatty and I had to return a few mains as they were cold. Service was slow but staff very nice and helpful. Used the buffet more. Had a great holiday - islands were all lovely. Stunning beaches. Would sail with MSC again, but on a newer ship.

Further information

Onboard

MSC offer two seated dining options, which they call Classic Dining. There is an early sitting at around 7pm and a late sitting at around 9pm. These sittings can varyby ship. MSC also offer a more flexible dining option called 'My Time' dining. This allows you to chose the time that you dine in the main restaurant. Aurea guests have an anytime dining option.

MSC offers a wide range of dietary options, including vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and low-sodium choices. Guests can notify the cruise line in advance, and the onboard dining team strives to cater to individual dietary requirements.

MSC guests are limited to two suitcases and two pieces of hand luggage when checking in for their cruise. However, we highly recommend that you read your cruise ticket in full before travelling as these limits may change.

Apart from their fantastic formal and themed evenings, MSC guests are invited to wear casual resort attire whilst on board. Casual resort attire would incude a shirt with chinos, or summer dresses and a jacket. Whislt formal wear would be a suit or smart evening trousers with a jacket and tie, and cocktail dresses.

Iglu Cruise has a team in place to provide necessary assistance to make your holiday run smoothly. If anyone in your party requires medical or mobility assistance, notify your Cruise Specialist at the time of booking or as soon as possible if circumstances change after booking. The Special Assistance Team will email a form 6-8 weeks before departure, which must be completed and returned.

Travel requirements

All passengers (including all children), should hold their own full 10-year (5 years for children) British Citizen (GBR) passport. The passport should be valid for at least 6 months past your expected return date to the UK, as this is often a criteria for entry to certain countries.

MSC Cruises recommends that every Passenger should have an adequate insurance policy which covers them sufficiently for cancellation, medical assistance and expenses, loss and/or damage of the luggage.
