"Always seemed to be various free dance lessons going on each day on pool deck and other table games/competitions and the ceiling shows or dancers after the theatre shows in main parade had a good atmosphere but often packed.Indoor pool deck 15 and jacuzzi were nice, staff member monitored time people were in the jacuzzi which stopped the day hogs so that was good...."Read More
Sailed from Barcelona, fixed rate taxi fare of 39 euros from El Pratt for the four of us and cases (same for return trip). Approximately 5 minute wait for check in which went smoothly then it was onto the ship. As one of my sons has a Gluten intolerance our first mission was to check the assigned restaurant (19:00 sitting deck 6) had the info we sent through. We were told that our breakfasts ...
First time on this cruise , grup of 12girls from Ireland ( but original from Romania)
We can't thank you enough to the staff starting from the buffet, especially Calin ( the best bufet supervisor) 5 stars and his staff are so nice our friend Ahmed, Saky and Christian..and many more , can'trememberall the names ( sorry). They are always ready to help. We had so many choices, exceeded our ...
How does this company gets away with it? From the minute you step onboard you are mobbed with staff members trying to sell/upsell you products, from dining packages to cheap and nasty wrist watches . The buffet food was always cold, poor quantity, miserable presentation, plastic plates , far too many people crowding around a very small area . The pizza was ( mostly cold) no better than a cheap ...
Was booked by our travel agent. What a nightmare. The first night in restaurant we were told there was only one English menu and no wine list as we had to order by the app on our phone as of the next night. As I am the only one with a phone it was very difficult after a very rude waiter and a lot of complaining they said we could order from a paper menu. Went to breakfast in the dining room and ...
The crew flock to you like vultures trying to up sell you on everything! Even if you have the packages you want they push you to upgrade. The food at the buffet isn't even all that edible. The eggs are runny and the pizza is garbage. I mean how can you screw up pizza? Huge language barrier. We spent more time pointing at things to order the food / drinks we wanted then actually enjoying the ...
After two years without vactions due to Covid. I Booked through an online agent MSC Grandiosa last february 2023. Big mistake, but wasn’t yet aware of that.
I made sure to inform that my son is autistic, no one took care of that, long lines, not quiet tables. Nothing.
The service, waiters, room service were great. The people in the reception (5th deck) were just incompetent. 3 times I ...
My husband and I have been on several cruises with Carnival, Royal Caribbean and Holland America. This was our first MSC cruise. Prior to boarding I read and watched several reviews on this website and others. We went into this knowing that the cruise would be a bit different than what we had experienced with other lines. I'm happy to say that we were more impressed with the food, the ship and ...
This was our third cruise with MSC. We'd recently completed a 3 night cruise on Virtuosa, so when boarding The Grandiosa we already knew the ship's layout which saved time.
The ship itself is absolutely stunning. Although it's nearly identical to Virtuosa the colours are different, and in my opinion I thought overall it looked grander.

We are presently on this cruise and am appalled by the operations. They disembark and embark in every port. What this means is that the Marketplace is impossible to maneuver in the morning with people wanting their last meal and others trying to get a meal before going on an excursion. No seats in dining area so you need to eat on lounge chair by pool. They also hold muster drills everyday so ...
This was a cruise for my wife and I to celebrate our 50th Birthdays together, check in was smooth and effortless the staff very polite, but then we got on board and immediately are hit with everything being upsold to us, drinks packages (already purchased) couldn't understand that we already had them and wanted to upsell us, next was the speciality restaurants not as aggressive as the drinks ...
