MSC Barcelona Cruise Reviews

We initially booked this cruise based on the itinerary. As this was a first trip to Europe, the port cities, including Barcelona, Genoa, Rome, and Palma de Mallorca, were enticing. I initially booked an ocean view room, but as I researched further, we rebooked in the Yacht Club due to the extra's they throw in (unlimited drinks, wifi package, butler service, priority embarkation and ...

My husband and I have been on several cruises with Carnival, Royal Caribbean and Holland America. This was our first MSC cruise. Prior to boarding I read and watched several reviews on this website and others. We went into this knowing that the cruise would be a bit different than what we had experienced with other lines. I'm happy to say that we were more impressed with the food, the ship and ...

I booked this cruise for a treat for my sister daughter and grandson to go to the Christmas Markets. I have done over 80 cruises in the past but decided to book this ship as taking 6 year old. After reading the reviews I was a little apprehensive but was pleasantly surprised. Cabin great and shower amazing. Tea and coffee facilities. Very comfy beds. Great value for money and only bumped ...

Well, I know that I should have written this review earlier, but only now I had the time to pass my thoughts into something readable. This was my first MSC cruise, my first in a European company, and my election cruise line until this experience was NCL. Just to let you know that MSC is a great dealbreaker, that is that they match the status that you have in any other cruise line, so it’s ...

I’ve sailed on MSC before and enjoyed my cruise, so I thought I would travel again, especially on a transatlantic cruise and the rate was inexpensive on a per day basis. Embarkation: It was seamless, with no long lines or waiting to board. No worries if you didn’t bring luggage tags, as they had them. Early Disembarkation: Other than the pastries and drinks, it was a little disorganized ...

We just finished a 7-day Mediterranean cruise onboard MSC Opera. This was our sixth cruises overall (three on Princess and one on Carnival) and second on MSC since last December. Embarkment: Easiest of all cruises. We were scheduled to board Opera at 1 pm in Barcelona, but arrived at the terminal around 12 pm. There were about a dozen people lining up and we got onto the ship in no more than 10 ...

This was our 8th MSC cruise and we actually booked our next one while on board. That being said, this ship needs some work. The dining room chairs were always falling apart. The shower drain didn't drain well. AND this was wasn't up to the MSC standard we have become accustomed to. There are no shrimp cocktails on the menu at dinner. When asked, we got the standard answer of "THIS IS A ...

This was our 7th cruise with MSC but the first on the Magnifica, which we choose because of the great itinerary to Casablanca, Santa Cruz, Madeira, Malaga, Marseilles and Genoa and the ability to spend 3 nights before the cruise in Barcelona a city we had not visited, but thoroughly enjoyed, a great start to the holiday. Embarkation in Barcelona was swift, seemingly only 400+ passengers were ...

We booked 2 nights in Barcelona pre the cruise and then a 7 night cruise. The ports of call were Barcelona, Cannes, Genoa, La Spezia, Civitavecchia, Palma De Mallorca & Barcelona. The ship surprised us and we would book MSC again but a couple of things need to improve. The Buffet selection was very good, The pizza was fantastic and we were very pleased with the drinks package selection. ...

We have had a fantastic cruise aboard MSC Fantasia. Everything was perfect. A beautiful ship as always with MSC. Really outstanding service from the crew. There were few guests aboard and the crew made up, by going the extra mile to make us all laugh and feel welcome and entertained. One person in particular impressed me, this is a young man on his first contract and 23 years old called Adi ...
