Jumping in.  "Worth the price" is relative.  The starting price on 50 minute massages is $120 (or $124) plus 15% gratuity.  For me, that's not worth the price since I pay 1/2 of that here at home.  The mani/pedis in Orlando run about $35-$45, and on the ship I think it pushes $100 with the tip.  That would not be worth it to me.  

 

HOWEVER, there are a million, jillion salons just outside of Universal that you could go to while in Orlando (even if you had to take an Uber) to get a pre-cruise mani/pedi.  That's personally what I'd do.

That's kinda where my thinking has been. If they did some super fancy with perks mani/pedi I could see the higher ticket price, but it just seemed to steep for a standard service. Thank you!

We also got "upgraded". We have a Bella guaranteed balcony, and they moved us to a Fantastica balcony. It's a nice enough area of the ship, and research indicates this might be the difference of having a couch vs no couch, so I'm all about it. 🙂 

I did a quick search and didn't find much on reviewing the spa services specifically for the Divina outside of the higher tier packages. We have a Bella package, but we're spending 4 days at Universal pre-cruise and I'm considering treating myself to a mani/pedi onboard. Has anyone experiences the spa services there, is it worth the price? 

We have sailed with NCL and MSC and we loved both, but they are very different. Our previous MSC was on the Seaside and it was a stunning trip. The company is not very American culture-centric, so I think that causes a lot of culture shock for some cruisers, but DH and I are both American and had a wonderful time. It was interesting getting to see so many European based cruisers. We are currently booked for a late November sailing on the Divina for 11 nights and are just hoping it can proceed as planned. We utilized a FCC from a 2020 cancelled cruise and found no trouble with the booking. The agent applied the FCC, my voyager discount, and we were still able to stack our honeymoon discount as well. Nothing but good experiences with MSC so far. 

I am also really curious about this! We're going to the Caribbean in May and that seems like a steal. Hopefully someone can reply with the low-down.

On MSC website you can prebook a total bdy was for $35! Seems incredibly cheap. Has anyone done this? Any feeedback?
