MSC Meraviglia Cruise Reviews - Reviews

First cruise post covid, was more than I could've expected. My next cruise is less than a month away and I can only hope it is half as good as this one.

We enjoyed our first time with MSC. We have only cruised Carnival until this trip. It was beautiful and worth the fare. We missed the smiles of the Carnival staff. We loved being able to book an accessible cabin 2 weeks before embarking!

I had the opportunity to take this cruise on a steep discount so from that aspect alone it was worth it. However, I don’t know that I would take another cruise on MSC if I had to pay a “normal” rate. As a person with a physical disability there were definitely some challenges. I had rented a scooter but couldn’t keep it in my room because it would not fit. I couldn’t charge it in the hallway because there were only European outlets. Maneuvering through some of the stores was challenging because the width of aisles were too small.

Cruise are budget friendly. Beautiful ship. Love it when someone is doing the survey asking us is we have any issue on the buffet. It means they care about the passenger.

We have fantastic 7 days break. Different shows each days, additional shows, fitness and aerobic classes, diversity of food - everything make us smile and rest

We really enjoyed our cruise, and would definitely sail on this ship again. We got the 5 specialty restaurants dining package, and it was totally worth it, all the specialty restaurants were very good. Our biggest complaint with the restaurants is that we expected more Italian red wines by the glass, such as Chianti or Montepulciano for example, but they were available by the bottle only. The Champagne Bar was great, I think we ended up there pretty much every day of our cruise. Also were pleasantly surprised by The Pub, they had Chimay, which is the first time I've seen a Trappist beer on a cruise ship. We also really enjoyed the shows, I read that MSC shows are not as good as on other lines, but I disagree, at least for this ship. "Houdini", one of the circus shows, was my favorite. We also did a bit of shopping on board, the clothing store had some Italian designer brands, and everything was significantly discounted.

A beautiful ship, good food and nice itinerary. MSC will bury the other cruise lines if they would offer their Diamond members additional perks.

For my 28th birthday, my brother and I went on a cruise aboard the MSC Meraviglia! This was our second time cruising with MSC and it was also our 10th cruise, over all. It’s been a few years since we had been on MSC and we were easily reminded why it was one of our favorite cruise lines. The entertainment, the staff, and the pizza are just a few! 🍕😋🤪 This cruise was unique in the fact that it stayed in their private island, Ocean Cay, overnight. If you have the opportunity to visit their private island, especially overnight, do it! It was an absolutely incredible cruise and I’m so thankful to have celebrated my birthday this way🎉 On a serious note, tragically, around 5am on disembarkation day, a passenger went overboard and due to fatal injuries, she lost her life. There are a few conflicting reports out there but, from what I’ve heard, there is strong reason to believe that there was foul play. The way MSC handled the entire incident and what followed afterwords just backs up how amazing of a cruise line they are and how much they truly do care. I never want to experience what happened again, but if I do, I hope it would be handled as delicately and smoothly as MSC has. We vlogged the entire cruise (including the morning of the incident), check it out at www.YouTube.com/@followingthefergusons

This is my second cruise on this ship in 4 months and I’m ready to go back in December it is a floating palace I love it

The ship was beautiful, the food was absolutely delicious. Our staff was very efficient and friendly. We definitely will cruise again on the MSC Meraviglia.

MSC never disappoints! The food is amazing, staff are incredible and the Meraviglia is the cleanest ship we’ve ever had the privilege of sailing on!

Food was better than expected. Staff was friendly, however most did not speak well English and there was a major language barrier. Additionally, the lines for the bars were extremely long with an average wait time in line of 40 minutes. Would be nice if there were more bar staff/locations. The port was extremely clean and nice amenities.

It was my first cruise. I liked the ship and cruise line enough to rebook with them. I appreciate the customer service at American Airlines for helping me select the best package because it the cruise a delight for my husband and me.

Embarkation is rough. Once you make it through relax and enjoy your trip!

I enjoyed this cruise. First time on MSC. Embarkation needs huge improvement. The ship is gorgeous & the staff is extremely friendly & helpful. The ships Pub is great, but not complimentary like on other cruise lines, but the food & service is great! Shout out to the theatre crew. The cruise Director & Assistant are visible & attentive. Huge shout out to all bartenders/wait staff/housekeeping & steward cabins. And of course, the cook. MSC Meraviglia has room for improvement, but it’s a great place to start from.

This was a great relaxing cruise for us. We booked it less than a month out and enjoyed ourselves immensely. Ocean Cay is beautiful! The staff on the ship was AMAZING! I would sail this ship again in a heartbeat.

Was my 2nd time on this ship, not as great as 1st.

Loved every moment of this cruise. It was very relaxing and fun. Definitely will cruise with MSC again .

This is really great summer break. I have nothing on the cruise that I dislike. The ship is beautiful, staff is doing everything to make you happy, the food is delicious. I recommended this cruise to everybody.

I had a great cruise! The ship is gorgeous. Next cruise soon!
