This is my 5th cruise, having travelled mainly with RC and P&O before this. Overall it was a good experience for being first time with MSC in Yacht Club.
Cabin was excellent- good size, clean, tidy, comes with a complementary choice of alcohol (ranging from hard liquor/champagne/wine) to take home with. Mini bar refilled daily, drinks are included, but note that snacks are included for the ...
Got to say that for my first cruise it was an experience. The ship it's self is stunning, loads of amenities, staff where friendly an helpful, well most of them.
We ate at our designated restaurant, which was Fantastic. Our waiters, Parta and Etienne where amazing, their service and attentiveness was outstanding.
The pools and hot tubs/jacuzzis where on point.
My disappointments where the ...
Its my wife's birthday on the 26th November, so we always like to take a short cruise to celebrate the occasion.
We are frequent cruisers (70+) with Cunard/Princess/P&O and others, but since experiencing the MSC Yacht Club on the Virtuosa, immediately after Covid in June 2021, we now mainly only cruise with MSC, but it has to be in the Yacht Club.
For those of you who have never experienced ...
Our cruise on MSC Euribia was not only our first time on this new ship, but also our first cruise with MSC. This was our 19th cruise, past experiences have been with P & O, Marella, Princess and NCL.
We decided to book this cruise only two weeks before sailing. This was mainly because we had been through quite a terrible period and I really wanted my Husband to have some time away. I took a ...
Mostly pleasant experience. The restaurants are well stocked with varieties of food options, both at the fine dining and buffet market place restaurants.
Loads of onboard activities and entertainments. Helpful and knowledgeable staff.
Modern amenities everywhere. The lifts, the booking system, the bar service are all automated.
The only complaint I have is the lack of live TV service. The ...
Hi, I'm an experienced cruiser who tried MSC for the first time Thanksgiving week out of Southampton, England. MSC acknowledged Thanksgiving day in its daily program, but there was no celebration dinner in the main dining room or buffet. I've read many negative things about MSC, most of which I did not experience. One of the nice things about MSC is that they status match (I received Gold ...
I like MSC Cruises and I'm not a part or full time snob.
I pay a fantastic price and feel you get more for what you paid to be fair.
The ship is clean although slob passengers seem hell bent on wrecking the ship, mass stains on furniture etc, MSC do a great job keeping it clean and very presentable.
We have been treated to excellent shows every single night, well last night was a bit ...
We generally sail the Caribbean and wanted to visit another region. We arrived at South Hampton the morning of sailing with a short 1.5 hour drive to port with plenty of time to spare (8PM sailing). The embarkation in a wheel chair was a bit cumbersome, never the less ok.
We didn't partake in any of the outdoor amenities due to weather, cold and drizzling. The live entertainment was very good ...
Sailed from Hamburg in the Yacht Club.
Check in a breeze, was met at the tent outside in front of the terminal, our bags were taken, a butler took us to check in, no waiting. Took approx 30 mins from the tent to being served a drink in the YC lounge.
our cabin was ready 1 hour later at 11.15 am. Our cabin was very spacious and well set out, with much more storage than you will ever need. ...
We chose MSC as had friends sail on their ships before. We booked at a great price, as we were travelling as a family of 4, so tried to keep our costs down. The ship is stunning and customer service was extremely impressive, EXCEPT for the bars. Each bar seemed massively understaffed (one even ran out of glasses), and ignored you unless you were sitting right in front of them. We didn’t purchase a ...
