In May we spent a week in the Mediterranean on MSC Opera and we had a fabulous time. The ship is considered small and a bit old for the modern standards, but it was faultless! Extremely well kept, shiny clean and all the crew was amazing, hard-working people. We stayed in internal cabin on deck 9 in the middle of the ship, we felt almost no motion. Cabin was kept immaculate by our cabin steward. ...
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 ...
I was excited to take my mom on her first cruise. I've been on many cruises and it's my favorite way to cruise. I wanted to try out MSC and I liked the ports available. First, I made some assumptions. I assumed that as a European cruise line they would be more accommodating for gluten free. I also assumed that if I planned ahead, called customer service, and documented my interactions they ...
I chose this cruise because of the itinerary but I should have paid more attention to the ship and cruise line. The buffet was lukewarm and didn't have much variety. We went once to the to the sit-down restaurant my girlfriend isn't picky, and she only ate half her meal. The sheets and comforter were stained. Only a sheet at the bottom so just sleeping with the comforter was too hot, I slept with ...
During 28.04.2022 I was on a cruise on the MSC ship with the name of OPERA. We were very impressed with everything there was: the staff were kind and well trained .... ARDIKA served us in the restaurant at table 516 and together with his assistant they were at the height offering us services at the highest and select level (very well trained, gentlemen, welcoming and understanding, with healthy ...
We read all the reviews. We have a balcony cabin it is great, yes the shower is small but really it is good.
The staff have been fantastic
The food is good, really good. The buffers have everything thing you could need
The beds are comfortable and bangs fit under the beds
This is our second msc cruise and it is just plain good Value
When we read the reviews we were suspicious, ...
It had a very good itinerary of destinations, at the right time for our plans.
The destinations were great. The ship was very clean and comfortable. The food was awful. Very little selection, very slow service, very bland tasting, very little portions, very plain food. The pizza and baked fish were good.
Everything was for sale - that normally comes standard with most quality cruises. ...
The excursions were fairly good and so was the food and servers. Everything else was horrible. The beauty salon was awful, terrible communication skills and high pressure staff, like your money was their personal piggy bank. The cabin steward was obviously so badly trained he put dirty sheets with bedbugs on the bed. The Reception staff customer service skills were horrible, assumptions like ...
