Review summary

Unfortunately, this was our first and last time cruising MSC.

Embarkation

3 out of 5

This was my first time cruising in an MSC cruise and to be honest I am disappointed. The food wasn’t great. The service wasn’t either. I didn’t feel pampered like other cruises I have been in the past. The fact that charge you for a show is crazy. The show is not even the greatest. Drinks were watered down. The cruise is clean and beautiful but the food is a big deal for me when thinking about a cruise vacation. Unfortunately, this was my first and last cruising MSC. Forgot to mention that there were extra charges that weren’t mentioned at the time of booking.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5

The buffet was very poor. No many protein options. The formal dining food didn’t have any flavor.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

I enjoyed the hot tubs because I was cold so I didn’t use the pool. The gym was good.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

The two free shows were really good. I enjoyed them but the paid one is really not worth it. It should be free.

Children's Programs

I don’t have kids.

Service and Staff

Our waiter in the dining room was a very nice guy. Great service.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

The ship was very clean and beautiful.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

The size of the room is okay to be a ship. The bed was really comfortable and our room was cleaned daily.

Ship tip

Pay for the drink package as water and coffee are not free. Don’t expect the food to be great and expect some extra charges.

The island is beautiful but the food service is horrible. I did a line to get bad food for 45 minutes. They are definitely not prepared to feed that many people.
