I have been on Norwegian's Getaway Haven and the Carnival's Breeze Spa Suite and now Yacht Club Divina. I would caution against MSC.
Please let me start by saying I had a good time, and the price is great compared to the Norwegian Haven. I cannot quite put my finger on it ,but they are missing something. The new ship like the seaside are starting this wellness class and they brag about the ...
This is a great ship the cabins are nice and it is very clean. But the food and service needs improvement, the service was bad and slow and the food is not very good. The Shore Excursions are the worst not worth the money and not organized at all. You spend more time on the ship waiting for your excursion to start and then they are cut short because you are out of time. Also you have no time left ...
I was on MSC for the Weight Watchers 1st Rejuvenation cruise. The ship is beautiful, but the staff clearly prefer Europeans as guests than Americans. hard to get bar service if you walked up to the bar instead of waiting for someone to come and take your order. The main dining room menu was not all gratis like I have seen on other cruises. You had to pay for example; shrimp cocktail, steak, ...
We were so excited to go on this cruise and see Tortola. We have always gone on Royal Caribbean, but decided to try Norwegian. We booked a spa suite with a balcony. The room was quite spacious with a nice big shower. We had access to the thermal spa since we were in a spa suite. It was quite relaxing. This ship is beautiful. The food in the specialty restaurants is very good. The island & ...
We chose this cruise to join my daughter and her husband for a family outing. After the cruise was booked she learned she was pregnant and could not go to the Caribbean (potential Zika exposure). So.... my husband I and went anyway. Overall - pleasant cruise. Our steward was amazingly helpful - always there to offer assistance, clean towels, whatever we needed. Our stateroom exceeded ...
I choose this cruise because I was sailing with a first time cruiser and had limited time to be away.
I will summerize as did a previous cruiser did.
The Good: We booked late so only Outside Cabins were available. I was fortunate to get a Mid ship cabin with a picture window. My preference for the past 20 yrs. had always been at least a balcony, however this was a short cruise so I took what ...
Booked this ship for our 50th anniversary. Wanted to experience a European flavored cruise. We met and talked with folks from all over the globe (28 different countries) that was great. The ship is very clean, the staff was outstanding, the entertainment was super, MSC cruise line is trying very to compete in the already over loaded cruise industry.
Now what was missing......the ship has a ...
I choose this cruise because of the great deal. Normally I enjoy seadays, but on this ship there was nothing to do except sitting by the pool with no music at all. Aft ship was for smokers and you cant access the front of the ship. Dinning room food was horrible. Ate only at the buffet which was decent. Had some issue when using debit card Visa.
For a first time cruiser it will be good. My mom ...
The itinerary was one of the main reasons we shode this cruise, really enjoyed the Itinerary. Stopped 3 days at New Orleans for the Jazz Fest.
Unfortunately there was no examples New Orleans cooking in either the restaurant or Buffet The steak in the restaurants was stringy and tough, The indian food in the buffet was quite good.
Our Cruise director was fantastic, best ever. I could not ...
