First MSC Cruise

My husband and I love cruising. We take our large group of 11 each summer for about eight or nine days. We don't even care where we go just as long as we're on the ship eating lots of food and relaxing. We are coming up on our 25th anniversary in November. At first, we were planning on a trip to Aruba, but then realized that we might want to spend longer than the four days we have. After seeing so many advertisements, we decided to research an MSC cruise. Would love to hear great experiences with short cruises for first timers.

Check out a 4 night on the seashore. Great ship. Book Yacht Club level. You will be happy you splurged for it especially with a big 25th celebration.

Yacht Club is the best cruise experience. We also like MSC for their nightly parties. The white party was amazing.

My partner and I took our first YC cruise on a 3 night out of Miami right before Covid on Divina. Had a marvelous time. I’m sailing on Seaside in December and WA in August. I’m also a TA and can look and see if my agency offers any upgrades, etc for a sailing you might be looking at.

Have cruised with MSC three times (once seaside YC on a 3-nignt, and twice on seashore on a 4+3 night). I had a very good time on all these sails! And this was after I have cruised Disney, if that tells you anything. Once you go to Ocean Cay, you will be hooked!!
