Ocean Cay

[Reenie75]

Sailing on Mergilvia Dec 8, Ocean Cay is our last stop. Excited to see MSC's private island! 😊Questions hopefully someone can answer:

 

If you purchase the drink package will we will able to use in on the island?

 

Is food included on the island or is it a separate purchase? 

 

Thanks!

Hello Irene & Peanut!

 

We will be on the same sailing as you!

 

Yes the the Easy, Premium or Premium Plus beverage packages will work on the island.  If you don't have a drink package already you can purchase one just for the island.  

 

Yes the buffet and the food trucks are included on the island.

 

You can find answers to these questions and more on mscoceancay.com

 

Also be sure to sign up for the Cruise Critic Meet and Mingle party for our sailing date.  MSC usually throws a nice party for us onboard.
