A week ago, I sailed on the MSC Meraviglia from New York. The listing originally was a 8 day 7 night trip to the Bahamas. Prior to the trip, I checked the weather and it stated that it was going to be in the 70s. We anticipated warm weather so my mom and I packed up our suitcases in accordance with the weather. The night before the trip, we suddenly received notification that the ship will be ...
My family and i took a cruise with msc seascape. It was horrible. The ship was packed, and the space was tight, elevators took sometimes 30 mins to arrive, passengers let their unruly children that was able to attend every event which made it noisey, and parents were not attending to their children, the food was bland, the ship was not designed well and very confusing, i got charged for a pool ...
This was the first ever cruise for me and two of my close girl friends. We were so excited to get on a super nice cruise ship with the MSC Divina and spend the weekend cruising around the Bahamas. Unfortunately, the weather severely prevented us from doing so. We never ended up getting off of the boat for 4 days because the weather conditions were too terrible. This in itself was a huge ...
Let me start off saying I never leave reviews for anything but this definite needed one. I got sick twice from the shrimp cocktail I served once in the dining room and the other at butchers cut. I threw up everything I ate the entire cruise. On the first day I got a burger that was undercooked. I could barely eat anything because the food was not tolerable. It takes a lot for me to say that ...
I used to rave about MSC and thought it was a great cruise line. I had some great cruises on them in 2021 and 2022. I was going to try to doublle up my 3 day cruise and make a 7 day but the cruise ship was coming from a transatlantic cruise. I thought it was odd that they were porting and going straight back out you would think the ship would need a day for maintenance, a thorough cleaning, and ...
This was our 6th cruise with MSC. 2,700 passengers boarded each week in Martinique. Over 1000 boarded in Guadalupe and the remainder in Barbados. About 75% of the passengers spoke French and the evening entertainment especially in the atrium was specifically for these guests. The food in the buffet was repetitive with a lot less choice than on previous MSC cruises. Outside the deck 8 buffet there ...
We decided to give MSC a try despite the mixed reviews because the price was so good. It wasnt perfect but given the price, issues were minor. It is great deal. We paid for Aurea level and I feel it was worth it.
The room was outdated and the porcelin in the toilet was scratched. But the suite was large, and storage was ample. It was also clean. The pillows that came with the bed were ...
Embarkation and Muster Drill
Embarking on the MSC Magnífica from Miami on December 11, 2023, marked the beginning of a cruise that unfolded with both highlights and nuances. The unique muster drill, requiring room dialing before reaching the muster station, presented an interesting departure from conventional safety briefings but left room for improvement in terms of clarity and ...
I would avoid booking with MSC at ALL costs. To start, the food was barely edible. Everything was either over cooked, undercooked, or bland. Everything is served room temperature even in the restaurants. Bartenders couldn’t care less about who came first and they like to ignore you. The customer service was absolutely atrocious. The vodka shooter in my room had been refilled with water. Upon ...
I’ll keep this brief. The ship is lovely, if a bit too big but certainly a good honest ship. It’s very clean although a little disorganized which I’ve seen on other Italian managed cruise ships.
Lively with great entertainment, it’s very musical but a bit chaotic too. You take an MSC cruise to have fun, not be picky about the buffet line or the bar and restaurant service. The crew and staff ...
