Review summary

We are cruised with all of the cruise companies before (Divine too), but this experience with MSC Meraviglia was one of the best one. The ship wasn't crowded ever, the dining room experience was more than exceptional! The cruise ship personnel (except that tall guy at the buffet desert station) were very courteous. The only thing we were missing is a one night dress up night, like every other ship has!

Embarkation

4 out of 5
Our international friends had to wait a lot since the agent who checked them in didn't know what is ESTA

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
The buffet selection and tastes were not always satisfactory (too much curry)! However, the dining room food and the services were excellent. Our waiter Dana and his helper Nicole were GREAT! Their supervisor were very courteous too.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Plenty of activities for every ages. Pools and spas never were crowded thus they were very clean. The pool water was a little bit colder then we would love it, so not too many people risked to get into it.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
The ship performers are exceptional actors with beautiful voices and with good music/song selections. The stage shows perfectly directed and well acted, except the second show was a little bit off!

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
Our dining room servers (Dana & Nicole) were EXCELLENT! Our cabin was always clean and smelled good! We had only one bad encounter in the buffet when the person (a tall black/Indian guy) behind the desert counter refused to give the chosen desert to us. He said "those are displays", however several pieces were already missing from that tray.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Easy to get around and find everything on the ship, EXCELLENT design! You couldn't even know how many people were on it! The ship is VERY, VERY CLEAN and smell so good!

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
The cabin was very comfortable, especially the bathroom. The cabin and bathroom were always clean, smelled good and our bed always were perfectly made!

Ship tip

Pack less clothes and just enjoy the cruise and the ship!

Ocean Cay MSC Marine Reserve, Bahamas

Beautiful island with a lot of activities! Need a little bit more store on it!

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Like a clock work. We were called at 9:30 as they promised to do! Good organization.

Only reason no formal night was because it was a 4 night cruise. on every 7 night there are 2.
