Chose this cruise for the value and destinations. 5th cruise we’ve been on. Beautiful boat but plenty of things let it down. Things to do: in one word BORING. Lack of activities, terrible music and shows, and not one place you can go without kids. Casino full of kids running around and even the nightclub is run by 15 year olds drinking mock tails by the bar. When I asked the staff where I ...

We chose MSC Davina as we were hoping for a memorable experience, however our expectations were shattered due to several issues. Firstly we were disappointed with how overcrowded the cruise was it was completely oversold. Throughout our time on board we struggled to find anywhere to sit or access to the pools. This made it challenging to relax and unwind or to fully enjoy the amenities advertised ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 40s

I recently embarked on an MSC Cruise "Lirica" with high hopes for an unforgettable family vacation. Unfortunately, my experience left much to be desired, tarnished by issues ranging from subpar food and outdated facilities to a distressing incident with my special needs son. While some crew members proved to be exceptional, others displayed rude behavior that soured the overall ...

I chose this cruise because MSC is a “famous” cruise company. Too many mistakes in one single cruise experience. 1) overcrowded 2) crew is not properly trained to serve too many people 3) Pre booked drink package are not in the system so they asked a proof that I bought it in advance, and even after it, I didn’t get the preciously deal price 4) Reception team does not have ...

MSC Armonia was the perfect cruise for the time that we had in Europe, visiting Kotor Montenegro, Mykonos and Santorini over 6 nights. The cabin was comfortable, plenty of storage and amenities. I would highly recommend Portside for anyone booking as you will see the beautiful coastal scenery from the cabin if you have a window, porthole or balcony. The ship overall is a little old, but has been ...

I've been on about 50 cruises on all the major lines, and this was my first and last cruise with MSC. The itinerary was great and unique, so I had to try it, but I didn't realize the stepdown in quality compared to Royal and Princess and the other major brands. The food was not good. We tried the sit down dinners twice, and they were very slow and every single item was terrible, so we just had ...

Geared toward Italian/European cruisers, poor entertainment

Pros: Low price/good value, most staff, especially cabin steward and bar staff, itinerary. Cons: Entertainment was poor, buffet food was poor and very odd choices, customer service staff. Entire cruise geared toward Europeans. Specifics: Room: we had 2 balcony cabins and 1 inside cabin for my family members- the inside cabin was bigger than the balconies. No matter, as Marta, our ...

The cabin are very nice. So big pluss for that. Also check in was smoothe. The crew try to push a lot on you, even waiter (they get extra from it) like drinking package or spa or what ever. Its not any fun activity as NCL or RC. Like learning fun stuff, or like quiz in pub, bingo, chess, or nice gatherings like gin tasting or something. Just like try 5 most famous cheap gin for 20 euro. And the ...

Today we’re on a cruise for the first time, but this is been such a poor experience I wonder why people do it at all. We were excited and read everything from the cruise company, many reviews and watched videos from cruisenews, Emma, and Gary. Before this, I was thinking hey - we can cruise to the Arctic circle or go transatlantic instead of flying, but now I’d really have to think. What sort of ...
