Review summary

No expense was spared by MSC on the Meraviglia. Everything was beautifully done, from the furnishings, to the food, to the shows. It was the most fun family vacation we’ve had.

Glad you enjoyed it. I’ve had a great experience with four MSC Cruises in the past year. The ships are the nicest I have been on and the food, entertainment and service have been excellent.

Glad you had a good time. MSC is probably a great first cruise. You may want to try the ship restaurants at some point. Yes the buffet has food but the restaurants should be different.

Thank you I’ve been saying this all along. We cruised in November and then in December. Both 7 days cruises. 100% the best ships I’ve been on. I’ve been 2 with RCL once NCL. This is top of the line. The crew were all so nice and we made friends with several. The food was delicious The ship was stunning. Some say they didn’t like the food etc. I just could not get it since we had the most amazing time. From walking up the ramps _ Until walking back out. I love to see the shares like yours. BEST PRICES ON THE MARKET. You really get your money’s worth
