Review summary

MSC Meraviglia is a beautiful ship. This is my second MSC cruise. I appreciate the fact that this cruiseline does not charge double for solo cruisers. The itinerary was excellent. I enjoyed the dining and entertainment on the ship. The staff I met were friendly and helpful. The cabin was clean. It was a relaxing vacation.

Embarkation

2 out of 5
For the thousands of passengers embarking, there needs to be more screening stations open and more check-in stations open.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
To improve this cabin, there needs to be a sofa added. The bed was extremely comfortable. There was plenty of storage for one person. The bathroom was big enough. The shower was great. Plenty of hot water and water pressure. The linens were plush. The heat and a/c worked great. Lighting in the cabin was great. The TV was bigger than others. I did get some noise (music thumping) from the lounge on the 7th floor below this cabin. The cabin was very clean.

Ship tip

Meraviglia is a multi-national ship. Enjoy the international experience!
