It was a family getaway. We had lots of fun overall. Bonding and laughing creating memories. But we aren't too fussy of a family. 😊
We will return a year later but for 2 weeks instead of 1 and in a different cabin type.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
Good embarkation. Have photographers take more than 1 embarkation photo. They think theyay have gotten the perfect shot but tell them to keep going to be sure.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
Dining was great. Wish a bit more variety in buffet but excellent.
Onboard Activities
3 out of 5
Not as many options as I would have thought. Looked at the daily planner but always pretty much the same. The different pools and hot tubs were our favorite.
Entertainment
5 out of 5
Saw both Cirque de Soleil shows and loved them!!
Children's Programs
3 out of 5
Wish there were more availability options for kid's under 3. It's first come/first serve so I advise you to sprint onboard straight to Doremiland if a child under 3 in your party.
Service and Staff
4 out of 5
Service desk had no control over their lines. The Italians did not understand or simply disregarded common courtesy of a line for service.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
New, elegant ship
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
The room attendant and I got off on the wrong foot but tur ed it around by the end. The closet door was broken but we managed, didn't complain. Loved the balcony and its safety lock feature, which Ibthink is becoming standard on the new ships.
Ship tip
Read as much as you can about the MSC experience you purchase and what is included. Always helpful to know as much as you can.
I would gice it a zero star raring if I could. It is a commercial port and it is the main port for MSC as the most passengers (Germans) board and disembark there. Nothing of interest to do there. Staying aboard was the best option.
