Review summary

An ok experience. Would I go on MSC again? Ok to go if price is right but really not my preferred cruise line!

5 out of 5

Embarkation was excellent, very organized.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Very average compared to other cruise lines.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

Entertainment

3 out of 5

Stage comedy very repetitive. One musician stood out “Dolreich Pascual”, he was fantastic! Others were average at best.

Service and Staff

3 out of 5

Our room Steward was great although other people travelling with us were not impressed with their room Stewards. They were already leaving bed linens and cruise paraphernalia in their rooms the day before debarment. Kind of felt like they were being thrown out. Most waiters were good but we did encounter many that were totally zeros in regard to customer service.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5

The buffet tables were always dirty. They were wiped down with tiny dirty rags. The layout of the ship was a little confusing but after a few days we got the hang of it.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

Our steward always made sure our cabin was clean and comfortable!
