MSC Meraviglia Cruise Reviews - Reviews

Cruise was fun with family very relaxing . Price was great - not my favorite ship but it was nice

had problems from day one and it was never fixed. the door handle didn't always work. tried to tell me i wasn't doing it correctly. the hot water took about 20 minutes to get hot. was told i wasn't waiting long enough. i was not happy. they weren't customer friendly.

we made the best of what we had. bummed out that we couldn't use balcony that we payed extra for trip. i wish we had a better 36 year anniversary. very disappointed

Everything was good with the exception of management decisions on how to deal with Hurricane Milton. We left bahamas 30 hrs early to ride into the storm.

We are supposed to make 3 stops for the trip, we only made one stop, and the rest of 7 days the captain was crossing in the ocean to kill the time and sailing very slowly to extend the time. They cancelled 2/3 of our trip.. with no compensation even for a future trip. This is my first and last time using this ship.

The weather was great andthe ship was beautiful. Embassy's Private Island was my favorite!

Horrid. Never again. Same food everyday and not very good. Carpet stains everywhere and terrible odors. Be prepared to fight for your chairs no matter where you are in the ship. Worst cruise experience ever.

Great time in all except for the shortage of time in Bermuda because of being cautious

I enjoyed the ship. The staff was great, the shows were good and as much as people complain about the food we always found something we liked

The staff and butlers were amazing no complaints there

My cruising "mission statement" is to have a good time & try to enjoy the full experience. Even the "hiccups" along the way. I try not to sweat the little things, which can sometimes otherwise dampen what has the potential to be an amazing day. I keep an open mind & go with the natural flow of the overall experience.

My first cruise on MSC and I'm looking forward to the next one! I can't believe all the bad reviews as my 15 days on board were excellent!

Overall we had a positive experience. They did misplace our luggage for several hours when we first boarded that was unnerving. We enjoyed most of the trip!

We loved the ship design. Best staff we have encountered. They were very friendly. Food was good and the gelato was delicious. Coffee barista was fun as wastheCD.not much to dislike here. We would go again!!!

New to the app and I listed my second MSC cruise as my first! Nothing has changed but the sequence of events! This was a great cruise as well! Looking forward to sailing on MSC and the Meraviglia again!

4 Finally's: Finally! A ship with enough elevators (and they are fast!). Finally! A ship that uses actual plastic straws (instead of those paper abominations!). Finally! A ship that provides fun, mid-day Sea Day entertainment (noonish parades or samples of shows on the main promenade!). Finally! A ship with a highly organized E-Day and D-Day experience. That said: One star on their Assembly Station Drill! The way they do the maritime-mandatory safety check-in is by far THE WORST way to do it that we have ever seen on any cruise. The stuff of nightmares: Ear-splitting sirens, shutting down the elevators and making old people walk 10 flights of stairs, and my Lord, the screaming children! ----------------------------- 2 "Yet Anothers" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Yet another overbooked and understaffed cruise! The understaffing is most obvious in hotel staff such as overloaded cabin stewards, but also in long lines at casino cashier window and non-existent beverage service. Overbooking is obvious (and don't give me that "it is impossible to overbook, there is a capacity number" blah blah blah, bc it IS possible to overbook when you add rug rats into every other cabin, 16 cruises ago I was on NCL Breakaway capacity 3,962 but 4,500 on board due to additional kids). To make more money, they add 1-3 children to cabins designed for 2 adults only. On MSC Mera, there are over 1,000 children on this cruise, as it is the last week before many schools start in New York and New Jersey and Philly. These brats are loud, rude, obnoxious little walking stereotypes of absently-parented city kids. Yet another "ninja" cabin steward [one that you never see, never meet, does not respond to phone messages you leave, and cannot read your written notes regarding any requests, even after leaving cash underneath your note: untouched] (although it is kinda neat when you leave for as little as ten minutes and come back to a magically perfectly-clean, well-ordered cabin). I dare you to call twice daily, morning and afternoon, to ask for 1 extra pillow. Go on, I dare you.

Overall disappointment. Spa not quiet, no windows, no staff circulating, poor food choices even with specialty restaurants.

We met some amazing people and had alot of fun, it seemed to be more stressful than relaxing at times because everything was so overcrowded but we made the best of it.

Truly disappointing, very boring and uneventful. Parties weren’t great either. There are 19 floors in this ship, and only a handful has things to do. Most of the floors are rooms. I’d give my trip a 1.5/10

Overall a great ship. Food variety is great, a lot of activities and never have a boring minute. the entertainment director and Glenn are so talented and adorable. The Latin dancers are so great that I am sure they will become a super star one day!
