Review summary

This is paradise. Cruise is slightly going down. I am third time on the same ship and diversity of food less than it was on the beginning of the year, I also don't like that the booking application don't let you choose the dinning time. You always need make the request on the ship for this. On the thermal SPA area a lot of staff are doing treatment, and it makes overcrowd that area It would be good to gave the staff separate time early in the morning or late in the evening... One ceramic bed on treatment area was broken a while ago and still not fixed, These small things make cruise go down. Entertaiment, decoration are beautiful,

Thanks for your review, it sounds very detailed & accurate. But since you gave it 5/perfect, I’m guessing you still had an awesome time. However, I totally agree with the high level of maintenance needed by MSC if they plan to stay in such a busy & competitive market. They’re booking these cruises back-to-back weekly at full sold out capacity, but yet not up-keeping with the required maintenance. 4600 plus guests & over 1500 crew weekly. That’s a lot of wear & tear. If MSC is not going to upkeep maintenance & repairs, because of certain limitations, then they need to consider dry dock & full refurbishing, and bring in another new ship. April will mark 1 year they arrived in NYC. MSC take note. Happy cruising y’all 🤩⚓️😎❣️‼️
