Overall the cruise was "okay". But when you spend that kind of money you expect more than okay. We have been on other cruises that far surpassed MSC. Royal Caribbean had more activities, better food, and a higher level of service. MSC was a huge disappointment.
Embarkation
3 out of 5
Lost a day &1/2 due to hurricane. Cruise line staff did fairly well under circumstances.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
We ate in the main dining room & buffet only. Both were mediocre. Menu was extremely limited & food was overcooked.
Onboard Activities
1 out of 5
Very few activities available compared to other cruises we've taken. Tried to take a walk on the outside deck but for some reason they decided to clean it on the only day we were there.
Entertainment
3 out of 5
Not impressed
Children's Programs
No children with us
Service and Staff
3 out of 5
The room steward was attentive. The waitstaff were fairly inexperienced but tried.
Ship Quality
2 out of 5
The ship design was very disjointed. It was difficult to find our way around. The common areas and room was fairly clean but there were multiple carpet stains everywhere.
Cabin / Stateroom
3 out of 5
Cabin was small as most ship cabins are. The bathroom layout was well thought out with multiple shelves, large sink and handheld shower head. Bed was not very comfortable. Room was clean but with carpet stains.
