MSC Cruise Reviews

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 ...

We took this cruise to see what MSC is all about. Never sailed on any other cruise line before just NCL. But with recent cutbacks in many areas and the increased cost to sail with them, it was time to try something else. In the past MSC has been blasted with so many negative reviews, everything from “ too European “, poor entertainment, bad service, and questionable negative food reviews, thing ...

We choose this for price and itinerary. initially pre paid drink package and internet package. Not on my card.did not get seating we asked for. Got. Later one we did not enjoy the dinning room setup or food .Day 1 we had to wait in line to straighten out all errors The private island. Was wonderful bring your own blow up float instead of.renting one . The Buffett was not good Food was cool and ...

I took MSC Seaside to experience for the first time sailing on a large ship, as it holds 5,119 passengers. PROS - Theater Productions were great and assigned dining was good. 24 hr coffee was a plus. Elevators moved well considering the number of people. If you had children, the jungle pool and slides were a plus. We loved two days in the private island Cocoa Cay. Price of cruise was ...

The crew and staff were incredible. The boat was spectacular and clean. Ocean Cay is one of my new favorite places in the world. With that said if you plan to eat good luck. I never knew that someone could screw up spaghettis or mac n cheese. The buffets were mediocre. By the time you finished getting food your food was cold. The layout is not well thought out at all. The buffet on top ...

My first--and last--ocean cruise. Will never do another one. From beginning to end it was disorganized, difficult, tiring, unpleasant and I didn't feel safe. The embarkation took hours--no signs for lines, no directions, lots of walking with our hand luggage, crowded, loud. Everybody can't walk as far as you expect them to--why not some rolling walkways as in airports? For disembarkation we ...

We booked this cruise because we were curious about the Ocean Cay Marine Reserve. We have cruised on RCCL, Carnival, Celebrity and now MSC. Our shuttle from Orlando airport got us to the port early (embarkation documents said 1pm) but they allowed us to get on the ship early which was great! Process was smooth! We had our carryon luggage with us and they made an announcement that you could ...

Many things are extra like water on private island. Internet is weak and expensive. Drinks and ice cream are high. On positive side the Seaside was a nice clean boat. The main areas of the boat were clean and well maintained. The deck plan of the boat was so confusing. Many decks don't go through. If you get on the wrong elevators you can get to the pool that you want without going up and ...

We chose this cruise because of the destinations. We enjoyed each and every port and are amazed at the beautiful locations. The ship has numerous lounges that were enjoyed by the guests. From the exercise classes provided poolside to the dancing in the lounges, you can say that this cruise was very active on all fronts. The theater entertainment was good and the dancers were excellent, all ...

My birthday is September 11, so being that it landed on a Monday this year my girlfriend decided to get us a cruise for the weekend so we can celebrate along with another couple. The only option for us was MSC Seaside for this time. Being that I have only ever been on one other cruise, I was excited to get away just us adults with no kids or any distractions since I own 2 businesses and am always ...
