MSC Meraviglia

7 Night Caribbean (Miami Roundtrip)

Ship: MSC Meraviglia

Traveled as: Singles/Friends

Review summary

MSC has beautiful ships. I would advise them to rethink their culinary choices for ships sailing from the USA. They need to think about who their paying customers are from these ports.

Embarkation

4 out of 5
Pretty smooth but I there was only 1 Priority Boarding line which my Aurea Experience included but is was faster in the regular line

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5
For my picky eating tastebuds, the buffet and dining rooms left much to be desired as they seemed to me to be European focused choices, The Butcher's Cut Steakhouse was very, very good.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
Average

Entertainment

3 out of 5
2 of the shows were good.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
I think the crew outnumbered the cruisers. 1,530 cruisers on a ship that holds almost 6,000. There were crewmembers everywhere doing nothing but standing. The service was great

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
It is a superb ship

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
Stayed in 13181. the cushions out the couch were stained from a spill and I asked to have them cleaned which took 2 days before they were returned. The showers seemed smaller than Carnival Horizon that I sailed on a few weeks prior.

Ship tip

Not the cruiseline for you if you're a picky eater. I didn't see much value in my $600 Aurea Experience other than the included vassalage was good.

Thumbs up

Ports of call

Nassau, Bahamas

Disembarkation

2 out of 5
I was surprised that my $600 Aurea Experience included Priority Disembarkation but I was actually in the final group.
