Hi Kelowna,

If you want to see your cabin even more close-up (assuming it's on port and sort of forward), then you can choose the original size of this photo from flickr:

Thank you for posting those beautiful photos. Ever since I saw that Royal Purple theatre I have been fascinated by it. My first cruise on the Poesia is not until next February but I am getting excited already. This will be for "Momsters of Rock" and there will be some awesome bands playing there.

Really nice pictures. Thanks for posting them. If all goes well I shall be on board in August.

I saw that and am interested but have never cruised with this cruiseline before. Can anyone tell me a little bit about this cruiseline? What ages it's geared toward, etc.? Thank you!

Thank you for the wonderful photos:) We'll be on the Poesia in October for our first MSC cruise. I think I saw our cabin!

Please please please post some photos of the food and water!

 

That will be much more interesting!

I really like the MSC Cruise line . . . have been on the Poesia once and will board again later this week. My husband has been on the Poesia twice and will board the third time this week. The feeling is someone what "Princess" cruise lines . . . elegant, a bit understated (i.e., as opposed to Carnival's more gaudy approach). Don't get me wrong, I like Carnival as well, but I like the Poesia. The food, for my taste, was lovely. I'm European by decent (Dutch), so I like the more simple things. Frankly, for me, it's not ALL about the food, or ALL about the ship . . . more about the total EXPERIENCE. MSC Cruise lines is an excellent value and I love their ships . . . new . . . with wonderful lounges and a European flair. In a word: Wonderful!

What a beautiful ship; thanks for posting the pictures. I can't wait to try her out (I'm booked for next Spring).

MSC Poesia.

 

Wow, this ship looks good. My husband picked up a pamphlet yesterday for my dream cruise -- New York/New England.

I wasn't planning it until 2012, but there's an offer for Oct 2011 that looks inviting.

We only got off a cruise on Saturday and have just paid a deposit for one in late December. Both those cruises do not involve plane trips. This is our new selection criteria. Or so we thought.

 

Now this pamphlet is sitting on the desk next to me. 15 nights on a ship with a purple theatre and red bedspreads. Be still my heart !!!

 

Are there any Aussies (Australians) reading this who have cruised on this line , or used travelmasters dot com dot au ?

The decor tends to be quite elegant indeed but not all cabins have red bedspreads (Musica has more of those). Many on the Poesia have blue bedspreads and the external cabins (not the ones with balcony but with 'windows' ) have green :-)

Totally agree....I love this ship... the food, the decor, the staff.... all wonderful!!!!

Oh thank all for the good feedback.

The Poesia is a very nice ship and the crew are the best :D It´s was so funny. Perhaps is the Celebrity Silhoutte also so good and funny. In some days I´m on bord :))

Thank you for everyone's input on the ship! I am reluctant to try a new cruiseline yet again but also tempted now!!! THANK YOU!!

Hope I am responding correctly. My husband and I are taking 40 people on the Poesia for a Caribbean cruise on March 3. This is our first experience on an MSC ship. We have 58 cruises all on Celebrity, RCCL and Princess. We are looking forward to trying something new, but at the same time, a little apprehensive. Anyone else traveling at this time?

If you truly luv 2 dance as we do you will be in heaven on board the Poesia.......we did our first on MSC in feb.......we are booked for Nov. 1 sailing and hope to make it at least 3 times while they are in the caribbean........113 cruises and this was one of our best dancing experiences......enjoy

[LSJC]

Please tell me more about dancing venues, bands/orchestras, etc. My husband and I are ballroom dancers. Linda and Paul

I'm boarding the MSC Poesia on October 29, 2011, Manhattan Terminal. You're boarding at Port Everglades and joining us, eh? Welcome aboard. Been trying to organize a Meet & Mingle, with no activity on the Roll Call. Maybe we can get something organized from your departure date? joanne

You will love the Poesia.........dancing starts in 2 back to back lounges at 5 or 5:30 and goes non stop until 1-1:30.............they have 2 groups in each that alternate every hour..............one floor is very large, that is in the Zebra lounge, and right behind it is a very small floor that is in the red bar.........tiny floor but we had fantastic musicans in both..........and i am in touch with one duo and they hope to be back on board.

There was a great single guy in the Zebra and then a 4 piece(i think) group...........they all play a large variety of music..........waltz, cha cha, swing, latin, anything you want .............we are free style dancers rather than ball room but will dance to anything if it is good music......

 

They also have a huge (for a cruise ship) floor up a couple of decks that plays ballroom, i am not sure of their hours as we very seldom went up there as they started later and we were so happy with the others...

 

Barbara and Kelvin

 

We loved everything about the ship.

I have to agree, MSC has great live Musicians onboard.

Thanks so much for the info on dancing! As we've been on a travel hiatus, we are really looking forward to this cruise. Perfect itinerary, in and out of NYC...our favorite...4 nights in NY before departing, Oct 8-22.

 

Looking to join w/others on the roll call to arrange for private vans, small groups (4+). Our experience is that we get twice the tour for half the $. But as a very busy person, I don't have time to make the arrangements.

 

So I hope to meet people on the roll call! Linda and Paul, Yorba Linda, CA
