This elegant vessel has something for everyone, making it a favourite with South Africa’s growing number of cruisers.
MSC Musica returns to South African waters for the 2024/25 summer season - good news for fun lovers. Like all vessels in the class, most of MSC Musica’s cabins offer a balcony: a private eyrie from which to survey the ever-changing panorama of the ocean’s blues and greens.
Your cabin is your private sanctuary, but when you leave it, you will find a world of activities and experiences to enjoy - all carefully curated and delivered with your comfort and enjoyment in mind.
The spectacular central foyer, with its three-tier waterfall and see-through piano suspended on a crystal floor above a pool of water sets the scene: sophistication and fantasy are the keynotes. The Copacabana Pool Area offers the quintessential cruise experience, with rows of loungers ready for the sun worshippers.
If it’s socialising you’re after, why not try one of the 16 bars and lounges? From the icy elegance of the Crystal Lounge to the Enoteca Wine Bar or the Havana Cigar Lounge, there’s sure to be one that fits your mood - offering you many ways to enjoy yourself and meet new friends.
Two spacious restaurants offer cordon bleu cuisine, the perfect way to punctuate your days. Guests will love the fact that they have their own designated table and waiter, creating a highly personalised ambience. Or if the mood takes them, the buffet restaurants are a great option for a change of pace.
Come the evening, the only challenge is which of the many options to choose. Sundowners and dinner followed by dancing in the Q32 Disco? A show at the dazzling Teatro La Scala? The thrill of gambling at the Sanremo Casino? Or just promenading along the many decks to enjoy the fresh air and gentle ocean breezes?
The choice is yours.
Children and teens also have a wide range of activities aimed at maximising their enjoyment. There are live shows, exciting water parks and a seemingly endless range of games in the amusement area.
Many of these activities are included in the cruise price, but others are extra - purchase the MSC Fun Pass to get the most out of everything on offer.
The MSC Aurea Spa offers the perfect way to unwind and focus on revitalising body and mind. There’s a range of beauty and body treatments and a soothing sauna, or why not try a Balinese massage? A hair salon and barber shop turn personal grooming into an enjoyable experience.
In its quest to make life onboard as enjoyable, trouble-free and cost-effective as possible, MSC Cruises offers options to prebook drinks vouchers and meals in the specialty restaurants at significant discounts to the onboard price. Prebooking can be done online, including the MSC Fun Pass.
Themed cruises are a drawcard for South African cruisers, with a number of exciting options lined up. In addition, guests have the option of shore excursions at some of the destinations, which is a great way to expand the range of experiences available.
MSC Musica is truly a world apart, offering everything from the space and privacy of your own balcony to a dazzling range of onboard activities and experiences.
