Review summary

All in all we really enjoyed the Meraviglia in spite of the negative things we read. They must have been on another ship.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Embarkation was an easy process. Get there early, regardless of your assigned check in time, so that you’ll be the first wave to board.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Contrary to others rating the food as horrible, it was the complete opposite. Plenty of choices, 2 different pasta’s daily (al dente) and the best pizza of any cruise line.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

Entertainment

5 out of 5
The entertainment was great! The shows were well put together. The ship’s musicians are the best! The dancers and singers are very talented and we even had a one on one chat in the main theater. A great comedian George Casey had us all in stitches…

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The service was first class. Our servers, John and Jackson were attentive, professional and pleasant. Our Head Waiter I Kadek went the extra mile to see that we were well cared for.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
We had a Deluxe Balcony Stateroom which was sized appropriately, comfortable and clean. Our Steward made sure we had what we needed and kept us well stocked.

Ship tip

Get to the Cruise Terminal early regardless on your assigned time…

Ports of call

Miami, Florida

5 out of 5
Been there, done that! We stayed on the ship.

Ocean Cay MSC Marine Reserve, Bahamas

5 out of 5
Beautiful port but get there early! By the time we got there we couldn’t find a beach chair, not enough for the amount of people on the ship. We wound up going right back to the ship.

Nassau, Bahamas

5 out of 5
New Cruise Port was very impressive. We went to Bay Street did some shopping.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Disembarkation was well executed when our group was called we were off the ship in 10 minutes.

I feel like I'm on a completely different ship when we started the 2nd leg of this trip. The first leg you sailed on was HORRIBLE in every aspect, in my humble experience. Now, I can breath. Everything is wonderful. Bermuda is the place to go, not the Bahamas/Miami 🤢
