Went mid-April and had a surprise, a themed cruise: baseball greats. My husband was the busiest I've ever seen him on a cruise. The player "greats" were very personable and fun, he didn't miss one of their talks. Ports were wonderful: Puerto Rico, St. Maarten, Grenada, Barbados, Antigua, Tortola, Cayo Levantado/Dominican Republic. Lots of sunshine, gorgeous water, friendly people. Overheared some passengers complain about port "smells" on some islands. They're self-contained little dots in the ocean, so sewerage containment, etc. can play prominently some days. Great shopping for brightly colored cotton fabrics by the yard. Favorite prettiest island: Tortola. Took a tour via open "coach" that was available right outside the ship for $20. Relaxing, gorgeous overlooks from highest points. Can't wait to do it again. MSC: excellent food, service, cleanliness.
