Review summary

It was a great holiday. Although the weather was not good, we had a nice time. We are planning another cruise with MSC to another region of the Caribbean.

Embarkation

4 out of 5
Too long waiting in the quee. Unnecessarily, immediately after entering, we were attacked by the crew with spa offers and restaurant drink tariffs. At the time of embarkation, people are excited and tired and this is probably the last thing they need.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Great service and menu in Waves restaurant. Marketplace buffet - varied food, everyone could find something for themselves. Good service, cleaned on a regular basis. It is worthy to have Easy Package for your convinience.

Children's Programs

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Perfect service in Waves restaurant. We felt very well. We were well looked after by the waiters and restaurant manager. We were impressed with the waiters' attire. Marketplace buffet - tables cleaned quickly, good service. Bars - friendly, experienced staff. Very good professional photographers. They took beautiful photos but too expensive.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
We were very impressed ship's layout and design. In our opinion common areas were clean all the time and well-maintained. We liked the variety of styles in different parts of the ship.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Clean all the time, very comfortable, cabin size appropriate. TV service and daily printed schedule and program were very helpfull.

Ship tip

MSC Meraviglia in our opinion is a good choice. We advice to read carefully daily schedule and program because there are many different events organized in the same time in different areas of the ship.

Ports of call

Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico

5 out of 5
A good combination of a visit to the pyramids and the beach. The Mahahual beach is beautiful. It is worth to haggle in gift shops and with taxi drivers. We did Chacchoben excursion by ourselfs and were satsfied and than spent some time on the Mahaual beach which was interesting.

Belize City, Belize

5 out of 5
We did organized excursion to the zoo and monkey sanctuary. It was great opportunity to became familiar with the country, people, nature ect. Very good tour guide. Recommended.

Coxen Hole, Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras

5 out of 5
Port OK, still under construction but safe. We did excursion to the far east of the island, seen landscapes, communities, culture, got lots of info about Roatan and spent nice time on French Key island. We also had a free time in the port to visit gift ships.

Ocean Cay MSC Marine Reserve, Bahamas

5 out of 5
Very well organized day on the island. Time on the beach passed pleasantly and very quickly. It is a pity that the sea state and strong wind prevented activities outside the island. I am happy to be back in a few years to see how the palm trees and other vegetation grew.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
The entire disembarkation process was well organized. It was very easy to find our lagguage in the termial.
