MSC Poesia - a Poem at Sea

Sail the Caribbean on the MSC Poesia and you are in for a treat.  Built in 2008 and christened by Sophia Loren, the Poesia is poetry in motion  - a spectacular waterfall with bridges in the foyer, a zen garden in the sushi bar, a dinosaur-themed kids area, and a serene 13,000-square-foot spa. She will stir your emotions like grand, epic verse.
