Review summary

I will never ever more cruise with MSC. It is a waste of time and money.

Embarkation

4 out of 5
Very smooth

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

1 out of 5
Weak. No variety. Only food I have at home (potatoes, beans). When something good finished , it was replaced with carrots or chickpeas. No paper napkins.

Onboard Activities

1 out of 5
Pools are too few for too many people. Fitness don't have weighs for old people (1,2,3 pounds) . The treadmills have a glass roof and imagine to exercise under the Caribbean sun.

Entertainment

1 out of 5
Very weak shows and bad singers.

Service and Staff

1 out of 5
The waiters in the Marketplace do not help disabled persons. They walk over you and if you do not let them pass, they will run over you.

Ship Quality

2 out of 5
Too few restrooms and alway dirty.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
The shower is very narrow (and I am not fat at all).

Ship tip

Get another company.

Ports of call

Nassau, Bahamas

3 out of 5

Ocean Cay MSC Marine Reserve, Bahamas

3 out of 5

Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico

1 out of 5
They did not stop here, without any explanation.

Cozumel, Mexico

4 out of 5

Disembarkation

1 out of 5
Terrible. They told us to leave the cabin at 7 am. At 7:30 the gangway was not ready and there were 5,000 people in one floor trying to move.

Galloway you're right we spent a week in Italy after our Greek Cruise three different hotel rooms and neither one of them gave us a washcloth

While I havent sailed MSC yet, I also follow the reviews. This ship has an overall 3.9 rating compared to a 4.2 for RCCL's AOTS. Not a big difference when you consider MSC often has the lowest prices. I also see a lot of gripes over minor things like "no washcloths". This and others are apparently because they give you an European experience.

Each of your 3 reviews on here, for 3 different cruise lines, say it was the worst cruise ever! So at least you’re consistent. Hopefully you’ve also had some good cruises that you just haven’t reviewed on here, and cruising hasn’t all been negative for you.

Appreciate your opinion. Many of your complaints seem minor (to me) and are on other lines as well; for example, lack of paper napkins, small/few pools, few public restrooms… Sorry this cruise didn’t meet your expectations.

There are negative reviews for carnival Royal Caribbean Norwegian and Disney as well as MSC everyone has their own opinion of good and bad
