We chose this cruise for its destinations. We were a family of three, booked a Balcony with Fantasia benefits.
It was our 29th cruise overall.
From the time we booked our cruise in January and confirmed it in March, this was not a good sign, that things were not going as we pleased..
Check-in in Trieste, Italy was okay!
We checked in at 10.30 a.m. Left our check-in luggage and ...
Chose this cruise for the value and destinations. 5th cruise we’ve been on. Beautiful boat but plenty of things let it down.
Things to do: in one word BORING. Lack of activities, terrible music and shows, and not one place you can go without kids. Casino full of kids running around and even the nightclub is run by 15 year olds drinking mock tails by the bar. When I asked the staff where I ...
The very first reason I chose MSC Splendida was because it was departing the city I lived İstanbul. I did the trip in a balcony cabin with my wife and 2 daughters (6-9 years) and would like to write my observations briefly from this 8-night trip.
* Cabin was big enough for our family and the service was very good in the room.
* Dining in the open buffet was a little crushed during the ...
I was offered 50% discount on a future cruise after breaking my fibula on MSC Seaview- chose a 7-nt Med cruise.
•MSC changed the itinerary before departure, no longer visiting Croatia (added 2 nts by way of compensation)
•embarkation was chaos
•room was ‘tired’ & needs a refurb
•bathroom sink water didn’t drain, called plumber to fix
•connecting balcony door rattled all the time (I ...
If you have a family do not book MSC Cruises!!! They will separate your family. That's what they did we us.
We booked 2 rooms with 6 months in advance, one in front of the other. 2 weeks before the departure we learned that they changed one of the rooms to 3 decks above. We called and emailed many times before the trip, but nothing helped. They claimed they couldn't do anything and we should ...
First cruise with MSC and specifically chose it to try the Yacht Club. We were not disappointed and really enjoyed the experience and perks associated with this class.
The main thing to point out and this is something everyone says but it's true, is the crew are amazing. Every single one of them work incredibly hard and always have a smile and a friendly greeting no matter how busy they are. ...
Probably our best cruise ever (28 cruises on 7 different cruise lines).
We managed to get an amazing deal on Yacht club for this repositioning cruise and now would always choose YC (if available)......
It's a slightly older ship and some deck areas are showing their age e.g. deck chairs , pool areas , decking etc.. , but otherwise we'll maintained esp the interior which you couldn't tell was ...
We chose this cruise as part of a package tour of Egypt and jumped at the chance to (hopefully) enjoy the cruise atmosphere as well as visit Jordan and Saudi Arabia. Unlike other cruises we have undertaken, the food was average at best, with the buffet very underwhelming. Where we really struck poor service and very poor responses was where there were agreed refunds for things like cancellation of ...
Red Sea cruise
Have taken over 20 cruises including 4 with MSC but Splendida was by far the worst ship. Nothing was clean, no antibac available especially at restaurants, public bathrooms mostly had no soap or toilet roll. The cabin was clean enough but was tatty and the balcony was filthy.
Food quality in both the self service and main restaurant was poor, limited and very basic - have ...
MSC Cruises have been a familiar choice for us, residing in Europe, and our recent experience aboard the MSC Splendida was a departure from the ordinary. This voyage was particularly special as it marked the celebration of my week-long bachelor party with friends. While the cruise had its ups and downs, it was an overall memorable experience.
The staff on the MSC Splendida lived up to our ...
