MSC Miami Cruise Reviews

Ok, first time giving a review but wanted people to know not to believe all the bad reviews for MSC.We have cruised more than 35 times on almost every cruise line. We decided to try our luck with MSC because of the price expecting the worst. What a surprise - turned out to be one of our best cruises! Embarking & disembark-super fast and easy- staff were great food was pretty darn good- dining ...

The wife and I took our 10th anniversary cruise (and first cruise ever) on the MSC Divina. We were originally going to try Virgin, as the kiddos were staying home with the grands for this one, but by the time we booked Scarlet Lady was full. MSC caught our attention from YouTube and online research. The price point was hard to beat and we weren't looking for a megaship for our first time out so ...

I read a lot of horror about msc and the magnifica and is it luxury, not at all; does it have flaws, of course, was it enjoyable, very. Have an open mind because not everything can and should be perfect 1. Embarkation- very easy, we embarked an hour before scheduled time and it was totally fine. Once on board you go straight to your room (if it is ready) and you get your key card and we were ...

After reading all the negative reviews of the Seascape, I approached this cruise with some trepidation. Fortunately, I was pleasantly surprised! We have been on roughly three dozen cruises, on many of the main cruise lines, so we do have some measure of comparison. We had been given two different boarding times (not a great start) so we split the difference and arrived halfway between the two - ...

We sailed on the MSC Seascape in February in cabin 9002. We had reservations about the large number of guests (5056 on our cruise) aboard the ship (we prefer ships with 2000 guests) but to make sure we had space to retreat to we bought the extra large balcony cabin. We had a wonderful time with a few hiccups. 1) Embarkation took exactly 30 minutes from when we entered the building to crossing ...

Ship was in better shape than I anticipated considering its age. The housekeeper service was fantastic. Every time I left the room with my daughter she would clean and organize everything in no time. I gave her a good tip. Bars sometimes get too crowded and the bartenders can't put up with the flow. Managers should move bartenders around to meet guests needs and expectations. Food is good. The ...

We have been on about 15-20 cruises in our lifetime. We’ve traveled on Carnival, Celebrity, RCCL, Norwegian and now MSC. We are in our late sixties, married 35 years, live in So. Fla and cruised mostly to the Bahamas, Caribbean & Mexico as it’s the best vacation value w/out dealing with air travel. Port of Miami & Ft Laud have all the cruises you want right in our backyard. We don’t mind spending ...

We had a few vacation days to use up and decided to book a last minute cruise to Key West and Cay Bay. We had extremely low expectations based on some of the reviews and were pleasantly surprised. The ship was clean, the staff was pleasant, the entertainment was great, and the food was fine - not great, but fine. We’re looking forward to another cruise on MSC in the future. The lines at the ...

I am struggling with understanding the incessant negative reviews of the Divina. I took a 4-night sailing to the Bahamas and had a wonderful experience. I am a solo female traveler. I initially booked Bella interior guarantee and was upgraded to a junior balcony on deck 9 at no cost. Embarkation was incredibly smooth, from dropping my suitcase with the porter to getting on the ship was less than ...

Overall the staff made the difference. The ship met expectations. Nods to our room steward Dewa, Bibi in various places and Patrick and Prabash (Jootoo) our regular servers in Quattro Venti. Be cautious of online deals from the website as our wifi and drinks were not included and we had to purchase on first day of trip on the ship. The Aurea deck was wonderful , the atmosphere of the ship was ...
