This was our first time sailing on MSC and in Yacht Club. We are very experienced cruisers - NCL Haven, Princess, Royal Caribbean, Windstar, Seabourn, and Holland America. Yacht Club was an exceptional experience. The staff on board are incomparable. They are kind, efficient, gracious and helpful. Embarkation was speedy and seamless. The food in the Yacht Club restaurant is incredible and the ...

We were in the Yacht Club. Food, service and room were terrific. We ate mostly in private dining room or at the buffet near the YC pool for breakfast when weather permitted. Ship layout is very similar to RCCL larger ships with front to back atrium. Private island was the best I have been to. This ship was at capacity the week we were on it. I would advise not to pre purchase dinner package. We ...

I too don't know what the deal is with all of the 1-star reviews, or perhaps I do...most people are insufferable jerks. Did I wait too long for a drink once or twice? Sure, but it was not due to the excellent staff who all worked very efficiently with a great attitude. It was typically due to short term volume of orders of fancy cocktails. Here are my thoughts: Buffet - Food was ok with ...

Very good cruise, and very few negatives. I have been on 4 cruises previously, none with MSC. Solo Traveler from UK Cabin Was in Inside double Nice big inside cabin. Good bed, very big bathroom with roomy shower I was a solo cruise, so storage more than adequate, if you are a two then the storage will just be ok. Food Used Buffet and 2 of the 3 MDR, didn't use Specialty ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 50s

Our first time on MSC and we are seasoned cruisers. We had a FANTASTIC cruise! I wholeheartedly recommend MSC cruises to anyone considering something different than the usual “big guys” (X, Royal, NCL etc). It was a great value for our money. We honestly enjoyed the food better than any of the other cruise lines we’ve traveled and we’ve traveled inside cabin to suite class. It’s a real ...

It’s our second time on cruise for last 12 years! The food was ok. We only did few days of the formal dining out of total 9 days since the formal dining courses sometimes were not impressive. However, we love our waiters and the manager at the dining place, also the staff at the market place are all friendly. My son has severe peanut allergy, the manager Edi at the restaurant always checked in ...

Review for a Caribbean - Eastern Cruise on Harmony of the Seas

We chose the Harmony of the Seas specifically for the intinerary of St. Maarten, St. Thomas and Perfect Day at Coco Cay. The cruise ship did not disappoint us. We didn't have to change the itin but Hurricane Tammy made for some really rough seas. We experienced some 12-15 foot swells. Made for some serious rocking and rolling even on this massive ship. Luckily no one in our group experienced ...

We chose this cruise because of the great reviews, the size of the ship and the ports. It was AMAZING! We went to St Maarten/St Martin first, then St Thomas and last was Coco Cay. It was all wonderful! We had the BEST time with our cab driver in St Maarten. For $50 each, he showed us both sides of the island, Moho Beach, and so much more. He stopped each time we asked, including at a wonderful ...

Just got off my 8 night 9 day Florida and Bahamas cruise. It was a 10/10. Beautiful ship. Great staff besides the women at the desk in ocean cay. Shoutout to Joe from Zimbabwe, in dining and Wendy in bartending from DR. Awesome staff! Shows could use a little more of a plot. Food was delicious. Better food in main dining. Speciality restaurants are good, didn’t care for the hibachi one. Their ...
