1-10 of 96 MSC Splendida Gay & Lesbian Cruises Reviews
This was our 3rd cruise with MSC out of a South African Port.
We were Aurea, and it is well worth it for the priority boarding alone.
The staff in the Main Dining room were the staff stars of the cruise, friendly efficient and very attentive.
The meals in the main dining room were very good and well presented.
The buffet was as expected, mainly overcrowded and typical buffet ...
We experienced our 1st family cruise to the portuguese island, mozambique. The children absolutely loved the experience. The food,drinks,entertainment and shopping was wonderful. Food was prepared well and delicious, staff were all very attentive and well informed. The pool areas were clean and well maintained. We purchased the Aurea experience and that was a good decision as we could dine in the ...
I'm not including ports of call here, as this is long enough and I haven't written them up yet. The ports were Corfu, Bari, Trieste (we went to Ljubljana), and Kusadasi (we went to Ephesus).
Customization:
The Yacht Club emails passengers to give you advance options for three things: the pillows, the newspaper, and the bottle of liquor in the room. Here are the options. Pillows: down, ...
The very first reason I chose MSC Splendida was because it was departing the city I lived İstanbul. I did the trip in a balcony cabin with my wife and 2 daughters (6-9 years) and would like to write my observations briefly from this 8-night trip.
* Cabin was big enough for our family and the service was very good in the room.
* Dining in the open buffet was a little crushed during the ...
First cruise with MSC and specifically chose it to try the Yacht Club. We were not disappointed and really enjoyed the experience and perks associated with this class.
The main thing to point out and this is something everyone says but it's true, is the crew are amazing. Every single one of them work incredibly hard and always have a smile and a friendly greeting no matter how busy they are. ...
We had booked a fly-cruise package with MSC in March just before the 30% healthcare workers discount offer ended. It was a 7 night cruise aboard MSC Splendida starting from Rome and visiting Genoa, Marseille, Siracusa (Sicily), Taranto and back to Rome with 2 sea days in between.
On the day of cruise (23/9/22), we flew from London Heathrow to Rome via British Airways. The flight departed on ...
We live in Spain and prefer to cruise from Barcelona. We had a thoroughly enjoyable cruise, despite the 3 hour embarkation process caused by the COVID 19 testing requirements. This was our first time with MSC, and having read lots of negative reviews about the dining experience, we were a little concerned about what to expect. We can now report that we could not fault the food. We mostly dined ...
My friend and I booked this cruise last year while on MSC Seaside. I had been to most of the Far East ports, but my travel friend, Judy, had not seen them. We flew from Tampa to Toronto and on to Dubai enjoying business class all the way. One night was spent at the Dubai Marriott, and the following morning we taxied to the port. And there the problems began! There was a "time to board" listed ...
The ship is well maintained for its age. We were on every deck, as we love walking and noticed staff everywhere trying to maintain high standards. Excellent Staff, Delicious dining options, Fresh Fruits available in the Buffet. The assigned seating at dinner was picture perfect. We had a table at the front of the Dining Room with excellent sunset view every evening. Massage experience was divine ...
