Great value for the dollar with an interesting itinerary. Prior to departure we were given a complimentary upgrade to the exclusive yacht club. Upon arrival at the port in Barcelona, we were seated and offered champagne. After about a 15 minute wait, we were escorted to the yacht club check-in area and then led on the ship by our butler. We were greeted in the concierge area of the yacht club ...

When researching for an European cruise for Christmas holidays we came across this which was of quite low tariff. Having sailed in semi-luxury cruises before we were somewhat concerned about this cruise because of relatively low charges. Negative reviews certainly did not help our anxieties. Yet we decided to go on the cruise which proved we made the right choice. The ship has a nice decor and ...

This was our first cruise and we were certainly not disappointed. The ship was fantastic and all the staff were always smiling. Food was very good, all though I was surprised that they could not make a real caparchio. We had a balcony cabin. Lots of space, real nice bed and I loved the balcony. Bars and restaurants are luxurious and the staff were fast to take orders and serve. ...

We had sailed with M.S.C. before and really enjoyed the experience. We went in July, having gone in June the pervious year, and we found a lot more children on board. We stayed in Barcelona for 2 nights before the cruise, and 2 nights after the cruise. It is one of our favorite cities and we love exploring it, M.S.C. embarkation must be one of the smoothest in any cruise line, luggage is ...

Having read many of the reviews, embarked on the cruise with some trepidation. We had the most wonderful experience, it is difficult to find fault. Food was outstanding, we had room service for breakfast and ate lunch in the Villa Verde Restaurant (Waiter Service), and in the evening we had any time dining, we ate in the Main restaurant, normally about 8.30pm, we had two wonderful waiters. A ...

Our first European visit and our second MSC cruise. An absolutely wonderful experience bordering on decadence treatment. The entire process from embarkation to disembarkation was handled superbly. This despite the tragic events the week before in Tunisia, the ship crew simply handled the change in their stride and as a result the detour to Malta proved to be an exhilarating experience and so worth ...

We booked a Yacht Club room for our first Mediterranean cruise. As background, we had previously sailed in the Yacht Club on the MSC Divina from Miami. We liked that cruise, and booked the Splendida for this cruise. We traveled overnight from Chicago to Barcelona arriving on March 13th. Our flight was ahead of schedule and we arrived at the port by 9:30 a.m. There was no place to check-in at ...
