Biggest issue? Training, across the board!

We chose this cruise because the price was very attractive, but buyer beware - they charge for absolutely everything on the cruise. Over the course of a week, it really adds up;, and we do not drink much or gamble. The biggest problem in every department was a lock of training, both in how to do the job and in what the job really is. There is absolutely no emphasis on friendliness or service, ...

We are experienced cruisers and had never sailed on MSC before. When we saw an attractive offer we thought we'd try them. The Armonia is one of their oldest ships and in need of a major refreshment. From the minute we boarded we were bombarded with offers of drink packages, spa treatments and all types of upcharges. No one to greet us when we boarded. The WiFi packages are outrageously expensive. ...

Past experience with MSC. The date of departure was my wife's birthday. I have been on Royal in the past and tried MSC in 2017. Having read many reviews about MSC prior to my first cruise I was not sure I made the right choice. The experiences I had on both trips were nowhere like the reviews I read. I can only assume some people have way higher expectations then I do. If you want a bigger ...

MSC has been heavily promoting its new luxury ships. Then we got a price offer that was great. So, we decided to give MSC a try. When we arrived at the port we found the Armonia, the oldest ship in the MSC fleet. The interior was outdated and shabby. The food was cold, over cooked, and tasteless. We tried for better by paying the up charge at their specialty restaurant. No luck. When I sent the ...

This was cruise number 19 for Fred & Lily and as much fun as all our other Caribbean cruises where we're just happy to get away from the Canadian winter for a short time. Cruised on MSC Divina in 2017 and have done several Costa cruises so we knew what to expect in terms of European passenger mix, multiple languages, food and entertainment. Travelled as a small group of eight with cabins ...

We chose this cruise because they promised us a suite , and for both of us, 7day cruise including taxes and port charges only $1700. The cabin was no better than a balcony room on any other line. It was ok, but nothing special. If you wanted tissues in your cabin you have to ask. Shampoo and soap don't lather up. We should have brought our own. No bedtime chocolates or towel animals. ...

MSC Armonia, A great cruise for first timers

First Time Cruiser • Age 30s

I booked this cruise for my mom as a Christmas present. Originally it was supposed to go to Cuba, but the US government imposed restrictions in 2019 so I presume they lowered the price to fill the ship after people who wanted to go to Cuba pulled out. Both my mom and I are first time cruisers. We did hear a few experienced cruisers tell us "don't judge all cruises based on this one." I'll ...

Do yourself a favor, research the ship’s age before you book.

Do yourself a favor, research the ship’s age before you book a cruise. It has been decades since we have been on an MSC ship. In between we have cruised on medium sized ships with lots of lines, Celebrity, Royal Caribbean, Princess, Holland America, Carnival etc. All have been great to very good. Then we went back to MSC because we saw a “Fantastica” level balcony, seven day Caribbean cruise for ...

First time on MSC, The MSC Armonia. Friendliest crew EVER

I chose this cruise mostly because of its reasonable cost, and that it would be a new Cruise Line. MSC made it more enticing to try them with their Status Match Program. Though benefits differ from cruise line to cruise line; they are generally an incentive to be loyal. Knowing I would get "top tier" treatment made it easier to try something new. I flew into Fort Lauderdale and took an ...

We were all underwhelmed with this particular cruise line, the ship, and the itinerary, which our family had chosen primarily for the planned stop in Cuba. Unfortunately, that port got cancelled due to the current political situation, and the second most-anticipated port, Costa Maya, where our grandkids were especially keen to see Mayan ruins, got cancelled at the last minute—with the pier in ...
