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 ...

The cruise was a cluster.

First Time Cruiser • Age 37s

The cruise was a cluster, when embarking the people that embarked earlier were told that they couldn't go to their rooms until 1:30pm, I embarked at 12:30 and received no such message. the customer service desk almost always had a huge line. Disembarking there was a long line of which I was able to get near the front because I planned ahead and then they opened up the line behind me to allow the ...

MSC Meragavilia Virus of the sea

Review for a Bahamas Cruise on MSC Meraviglia

2-5 Cruises • Age 43s

I don’t even know where to start this cruise line is so bad , first I’ll start with the food , the buffet is like the continental breakfast at a cheap hotel , the elevator is setup to house hundreds of people walking through the buffet that aren’t even eating , buffet is the same everyday and disgusting, the pay to eat restaurants really lack something to be desired for and everything at the Taco ...

Yacht Club Disapointing

Review for a Caribbean - Western Cruise on MSC Meraviglia

grantschenck
10+ Cruises • Age 60s

This was our first and probably our last cruise with MSC. We booked the Yacht Club as we wanted to experience an upgraded experience. Our background is many cruises with NCL and a few on other cruise lines but never in the premium areas. We’d grown tired with NCL and especially with the downgraded entertainment. However MSC YC dinning was just OK. Food often not very flavorful and often ...

Yacht Club is not a luxury experience

Review for a Caribbean - Western Cruise on MSC Meraviglia

10+ Cruises • Age 70s

Took this trip because it was RT from NYC and I live here. We were in the Yacht Club so expected a luxury experience. Ship is beautiful and very clean and well maintained. Service was poor as everyone is pleasant however follow up is slow and mixed. Food was poor to average with a limited menu. It's not fine dinning, more like a chain like Applebee's. Shows were good but the crowds made it a poor ...

Harmony of the Seas did not disappoint!

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

CruiseloverBuc06
2-5 Cruises • Age 60s

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 ...

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

10+ Cruises • Age 70s

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 ...

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

10+ Cruises • Age 70s

I have been on this ship 4 times, the staff was not at all friendly, there were no smiles on their faces, we never even met our room steward. We had early dinner seating and our asst server never spoke a word, he sometimes brought our rolls and drinks but was speechless. The food was cold and overall had not taste. I am already use to the new menu but the quality of the food was poor. Our ...

Awful food

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

Anniemak2511
6-10 Cruises • Age 30s

We sailed on Harmony last year at the same time. This year, we noticed significant downgrades in the quality of food, shows, and cleanliness. The buffet food was disgusting, not to mention that they served chicken every day. They no longer had a roast beef or seafood night. Dry chicken and pork every day, but cooked with different spices. They no longer had a decent gourmet selection of cheeses ...
