This cruise was amazing! First off for a cruise ship that holds around 7-8k passengers and we only had about 800 it was amazing!! I travel all the time and I legitimately wanted a true relaxing vacation and this is what I got. I loved every moment of it. I did a full review on Youtube just search MrBucketlist on youtube and MSC Meraviglia but I just can't say enough. The price being 300 bucks after everything for a balcony cabin out of Miami??? Try it out is all I can say- MrBucketlist
Embarkation
5 out of 5
Fastest I've experienced out of 4 cruises. On the ship within 10 minutes. I never even sat down.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
This is up for debate and for my first meal in the MDR I was not impressed. But after I understood this is an Italian line I ordered Italian food and was pleasantly surprised. The food on the private island was real good and different than what was offered on the ship. If this was a week long cruise I would see this as an issue.
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
First cruise were I was able to have ample time in all the main pools without feeling crowded or just grossed out. I didn't think it was possible on a cruise ship, especially a mega ship.
Entertainment
4 out of 5
It wasn't bad just very different than I'm used to. Again something that you can enjoy once you leave the comparisons out the door and realize who this line is catering towards.
Children's Programs
I have no kiddos
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Best I've seen. I thought about doing the Yacht club just for the experience but I was so worried about other reviews and this being my first time with the company I didn't. Honestly I didn't need to, I got treated like a king anyway. Everyone was happy to help.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
Beautiful ship and great layout. I went on the NCL epic which is a tad bit smaller than this ship and I was so confused it literally took me a few days to get familiar with it. Even when I did it took about 15 mins to travel anywhere on the ship. Not the case at all with this ship. Also plenty of elevators. So many I never waited on one, nor did I share one with anyone at anytime during the cruise or embark/disembark.
Cabin / Stateroom

Huge for one person. Great for the price, (300 Bucks U.S. after tax)
