1-10 of 21 MSC Splendida Cruise Reviews for for the Disabled to Europe - Western Mediterranean
Great itinerary with very interesting ports alas the highlight ports were cancelled without being informed of this change and no interesting ports were added.
Embarkation was easy and organised
The highlight were the exceptional staff especially cabin dinner and entertainment staff so friendly and cooperative
Poor nightly shows the best was done by the crew
Good was good except not ...
This cruise was a replacement for one we cancelled from Miami so we didn’t know what to expect. We had just been on a Norwegian cruise the week before so we were able to make some comparisons. Right away we noticed that the buffet food was sub par. The food items were generally not hot no matter what time we arrived there and the milk should have been kept cold. I thought it was a recipe for ...
28 days from Dubai to Hamburg visiting places I had never been was the mantra for our cruise.
We set sail on March 12th 2020, same day I believe the world Pandemic was officially announced. Should MSC have let the cruise depart Dubai? - absolutely not. MSC's only objective was to get their vessel back to one of its home ports. There was no regard given as to the well being of its passengers, ...
MSC Splendida
We stayed on the MSC Splendida for one week! The experiences was from positive through to negative.
The negative feeling after the trip unfortunately prevailed: it was our first and last cruise and we could not wait to leave the ship at the end.
In general:
The Splendida is an imposing and beautiful ship, which has a lot to offer. It appears neat and clean. It was also ...
We chose this cruise because it visited all but one places we had not been to. Having travelled on the MSC Opera we knew what to expect and then it was a good trip with the only short falls being the way it catered for mainly non-UK guests.
Embarkation went reasonably well, very very busy at Valencia, people jostling about and queue jumping, checking in cases then queueing again. Disembarkation ...
Since friends and I were already in Italy we decided to try a Eurocentric cruise. Our travel agent suggested MSC and we booked the Splendida from June 11th through June 17th. We found to our surprise that many things that are covered on American cruise lines were considered extra by MSC. We were nickel and dimed to death on this cruise. We wound up spending $700 more than we expected to by the ...
this cruise looked great from the adverts, not impressed at all. Dining in self service was atrocious, food everywhere people clammering for attention staff so so Restaurants at lunch and breakfast also so so. Dining evening very good service impeccable.
Embarkation was quite good although quite rushed. disembarkation similar.
Cabin superb as was cabin staff
Ship was luxurious but unless ...
We are a couple on the 60´s, more than 10 cruises before.
Nice looking ship. Very port intensive cruise. Price below competitors.
Good bars and lounges.
Service very attentive.
The line attitude looks cheap, and charge for everything. No toiletries even in a suite. If you buy a drinking package, the only beer available was Heinecken; wines spumante, red, rose and white, period; no ...
We spent a good week because the family company we had was great, but the service on the cruise is better. I have been to other shipping companies and this was the first time with MSC and I think some services are better.
To start the tour service, I think they should take care of the explanations of the excursions to the clients, they do not give enough information.
The dinners are very ...
We sailed on the Splendida last September and loved everything which is why we booked again. Everything was pretty much the same except for the food. On our last cruise there were 7 courses each night and generous portions as well as delicious choices. This time it was only 3 courses and they were small. There was one gala night but still only 3 courses so not sure what made it a gala night. We ...
