The suite was amazing and spacious. Two bedrooms both with bathrooms. It was perfect for our family.
My daughter was always excited to see what treat would be in our room each afternoon. Chocolate strawberries were her favourite.
The Haven restaurant staff were lovely and friendly. The food was also good although the menu doesn't change. There is also a children's menu of pizza, pasta, ...
We cruised on the Epic around eight years ago and loved it and were happy to book again. After booking and then reading the reviews, our expectations dropped but we were so pleasantly surprised! We booked primarily for the itinierary, stopping at all the best ports in the Mediterranean and the weather was perfect every day. The entertainment is most important to us and we were spoilt for choice ...

I have cruised before, but my wife had not, and she was looking for "an over the top" experience". So I began searching for big ships doing the Mediterranean in November.
MSC had a lot of ships and the Meraviglia is one of the top 10 largest ships afloat, very new, and the video was amazing. The reviews however, were anything but amazing. Like lukewarm and even negative reviews about our ...
I am a cruiser of significant experience. I have sailed many days on Crystal, as well as having sailed on Seabourn, Holland America Line, Azamara Club Cruises, Norwegian Cruise Line, P&O Cruises, Royal Caribbean, Princess as well as the now defunct Transocean Tours' MS Marco Polo and Voyages of Discovery's much missed MV Discovery. I have sailed multiple times in the Mediterranean and Caribbean, ...
Only take notice of negative reviews on here if you are looking for an English or US style cruise. If you are cosmopolitan, love a lively atmosphere, enjoy European food and are nice to staff then you will not find fault. The ship is magnificent, the staff were fantastic, the food was good. We took advantage of the all-Inc drinks and enjoyed a 3 dinner package ... Butchers Cut, Eataly and Cirque ...
Just finishing our first cruise on Msc opera around the med. The ship is spotless, they were always cleaning and our cabin was beautiful they changed our towels three times a day and turned drown the bed every night. The staff throughout the ship are very helpful and always smiling we never experienced anyone miserable. The food was excellent and plentiful. A bit of a free for all in the buffet ...
It was me and my mom on the Medditarenean cruise, our girls time went really good because of the itinerary, service, and excursions!!!
I would highly recommend booking excursions in advance to save your spot and attend on the ship entertainment which was amazing. We had a small issue with our bill, but the front desk collaborated with food & beverage department and resolved it.
Things for ...
Embarkation in Genoa started off as a nightmare. It was disorganised, none of the staff knew where we had to go and the signage was very confusing. No sign of the Yacht Club tent until we finally got directions from a staff member who actually knew where the Yacht Club check in was. With suitcases, this was very stressful not helped by the fact that 2 ships were in at the same time.
Our new ...
