Exceptional cruise, absolutely tremendous crew/staff. Who ever does the hiring of staff does an excellent job. by Dianemtc

Ship: MSC Fantasia / Destination: Europe - Western Mediterranean

Not much was wrong. Could have used more directional signs to the yacht club.

Nave Bella e pulita anche... by genzano

Sail date: /
Ship: MSC Fantasia

Nave Bella e pulita anche se si sente che è un po' vecchia e mancano tante cose. Riguardo proprio la nave è sempre pulita e sistemata. Riguardo il cibo e gli intrattenimenti purtroppo delude. Cibo da mensa, sia al buffet che al ristorante. Spettacoli al teatro praticamente inesistenti...ballano solo!... servizio al ristorante è ok. Per i bimbi meglio lasciar perdere. Cabina bella, nello stile msc. Comunque se continua così, anche se fanno navi meravigliose ma poi il resto è deludente, la gente si stuferà e proverà altre compagnie. Forse è quello che farò io. Starò a vedere il prossimo anno, dato che andrò ancora con msc con la nuova ammiraglia, la "bellissima".... e vediamo se ci sarà qualche miglioramento...

I've read some poor reviews... by juzbcuzgirl

Sail date: /
Ship: MSC Fantasia

I've read some poor reviews about MSC but I have to disagree...this ship and crew thus far 2 days in is stellar. If your used to american lines of course they differ from European but not in a bad way just different. Our first night in the dining room was amazing 9 of us and not one complaint on anyones food or service. The rooms are clean and the stewards are friendly and helpful in whatever you ask of them. Do not hesitate to try MSC when they are in the Carribean...just expect a different experience...a taste of Europe!

Servizio al di sotto delle aspettative! Personale che non parla italiano! Animazione nella media ma nulla di eccezionale! Cibo di scarsa qualità e ripetitivo pulizia cabina sotto la media e servizi inesistenti

Sail date: /
Ship: MSC Fantasia

A week of cruising had passed. I really enjoyed the ship. Food was excellent. Ship was clean and fresh. We took a lot of pictures. My daughter was a fan of Photoshop employees, done 9-10 photo sessions. All pics were beautiful and was difficult to choose only few of them.

Great trip on the MSC Fantasia by MuddyPuddles

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: MSC Fantasia / Destination: Caribbean

This was our second cruise with MSC, and our second re positioning. Overall, was a good balance of relaxing sea days and great Mediterranean ports. Fantasia was a great ship and I would sail on her again in a heartbeat.

Great destinations by islandhopper007

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: MSC Fantasia / Destination: Caribbean

Overall an average cruise. Catering mostly for weekly customers, so lots of repeats of shows, meals, etc. Would rate cruise at the lower end. If compared to others value for money is ok.

Hello, I was wondering if anyone ever took kids on the msc cruise line? If so how did they like it? We have only ever taken ours on carnival and they loved the camp programs there

Excellent introduction to the Caribbean Islands by kentracer

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: MSC Fantasia / Destination: Caribbean

Overall the cruise was a lovely experience and exactly what we wanted and expected. We met lovely people on our dinner table and that made it fun. We would cruise with MSC again but would prefer to arrange our own flights.......we were not impressed at all how this was handled by BA. We have been on other cruiselines and this one compared well with the others we have done. Take the drinks package its certainly worth it. The photographers are a bit of a pain at times, especially at dinner time. MSC needs also to think about how it does the 'lifeboat drill' for joining passengers as we were held up for dinner till 10pm on two nights and were not warned about this until it was too late.

Everything was very good! We... by MicTob0906

Sail date: /
Ship: MSC Fantasia

Everything was very good! We had a exquisite cruise. MSC Fantasia is a beautiful ship, with a lot of activities and stuff to do onboard. The cabin was perfect, the staff was so kind and always very helpful. A special thank goes out to our waiters in the Red Velvet restauran for making our dinners onboard extra great and a lot of fun. Also the waiters in IL Transatlantico. They made the evening so funny. But generally all the staff were great. The food were good, the drinks and the wine also. The activities, the music and the theatre shows were also good and various.

A smooth and pleasant cruise with nice staff by habekovaz

Sail date: / Traveled as: Large Group
Ship: MSC Fantasia / Destination: Europe

A pleasant and smooth cruise onboard MSC fantasia. Great food, great services, I am not keen on the kind of entertainment activities aboard cruise ships, but the group I was travelling with enjoyed it very much. Well thought out and organized in every sense. I'd suggest having more staff at the reception during rush hours and the night before disembarkation. Overall very satisfied, will recommend.

I am sorry that they... by sprinter33

Sail date: /
Ship: MSC Fantasia

I am sorry that they have to learn to make guest's hapy. I paid the drinks package (all included, 400 euro, and i have to say please for drink. Its not correct. At dinner, Most of the time, for example, when i order white wine, they bring me red... in 7 days, 5 times this happens... not good. The buffet rest, in a sea day, it ok, in a stop day, at 8.30 most things not available... only pizza, burgers and similar...

Good destinations, disappointed with MSC Cruises by LennieS

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: MSC Fantasia / Destination: Europe

Most likely will not cruise with MSC again!

Shows had no theme.  Need more variety & creativity.  Was not Wow'd!

Food was regular.  Staff went around up selling for better food choices.

Bottled water on table during dinner took out the formality of the dinner.

Dining room staff needs more training on dining etiquette.

UAE with MSC by paoloke

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: MSC Fantasia / Destination: Dubai & Emirates

Good itinerary.  Sir Ban Yas island is a nice in-between for a shore-day. Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Doha are beautiful impressive cities to visit (very easy to do with taxi!). Bahrein (Manamah) was a little less.

It is my second time... by fa3iancr

Sail date: /
Ship: MSC Fantasia

It is my second time on MSC Fantasia, for sure the first time the service was better, which doesn't mean it was a bad experience. This time on the UAE, Oman & Qatar was a little bit different the day we embarked the service was really bad every single waiter/waitress was rude I don't know why, but by the time they already know the guests started to be friendly which they should be nice since the beginning. The food was really good I don't have any complaint, I guess it depends on the time you get to the buffet there was always a schedule which was indicated on the daily program it is not like in other cruise companies that have 24hs buffet, which if you read and followed what the daily program said was good. The beverage allegrissimo package is a must otherwise you will spend a lot of money in coffee, water, ice cream and alcoholic beverages. In general the cruise was ok, it's worth the price it was. The service can be better.
