Ship was nice. Good layout. Food was good. Bar service was good except for 15th back outside deck. Entertainment was so so. Wifi was TERRIBLE. TV reception was awful. We had a few issues that went unresolved. First we were woken up by maint. workers banging on a pipe before 8a several mornings. I called to complain and guest services said it wasn’t happening. I said come to my room and hear for ...
This is our 6th cruise booked with Carnival. It is by far the best food we've experienced on the buffet of any of the previous cruises. The stateroom, which was a suite, was nice but in much need of refurbishment. Actually, the ship overall, from wood railing finishes, paint, to deck flooring was needing attention. None of the previous Carnival ships we cruised were in this condition. Another ...
We booked this cruise because it was going to stop a few places we hadn't been before on our way to europe. we booked a superior balcony cabin so my husband could sit and watch the ocean.
Right off the bat, we were unhappy beause the balcony had a bunker-like appearance with the metal coming up to where a railing should be. in other words, you had to stand up to see out. after 2 hours in ...
Overall the ship is in good shape, large but easy to get around once you get the hang of it Having said that, the configuration with many dead-ends and too many reflective surfaces was bewildering. I found the ship lacking in ongoing maintenance, and understaffed. Most of the crew I came across were pleasant and eager to help. However, you can tell apart those that weren’t happy or interested in ...
This is the sixth cruise we have taken with Carnival. This was BY FAR the worst cruise we have ever taken.
* The Valor appeared to be a run-down, aging ship. Stats show it to be 19 years old but appeared much older.
* We voiced our dissatisfaction to Guest Services mid-cruise but never received any follow up to our concerns.
* Our last cruise was aboard the Mardi Gras and it was great. ...
The MSC Divina is an older ship, but very well maintained and beautiful.
We decided to splurge on the Yacht Club on the MSC Divina. We are so glad we did. From the check in to debarkation we were treated like VIP's, but not in an uncomfortable way. Every crew member in the Yacht Club greeted us warmly each and every time we saw them and were always offering ways to make our cruise an enjoyable ...
Chose this cruise because if the ports of call. We were promised a unobstructed balcony view, we did not get that, they did not change our room, even though the ship was not full. The staff continually lie to you, they are rude and arrogant. The food was mediocre, at best. The fact that all of the meat we ate throughout our cruise was tough and dry. Nothing was prepared fresh, even the eggs were ...
CRUISE REVIEW
MSC SEASIDE – Yacht Club Class
START DATE – May 14, 2023 – SEVEN NIGHTS
BOTTOM LINE – ABSOLUTELY WOULD do this again in a heartbeat
I always like to put my conclusion on top so that those who are quick and want to “get to the point” can get there right away. sometimes a yes, sometimes a no, but on special times, an absolutely would be the only option available.
First ...
We were there between 5/14-5/21/23. The services were nice, food was good, the cruise is beautiful but....make sure your rooms are not for the handicap if you are not one, we are not. The rooms reserved for the handicap we were in was not clean and smell bad. We had to spray water around the bathroom, the shower curtain and the ...drain to make it feels better. Otherwise, the other features were ...
Chose this itinerary because it stopped at Cozumel. Also the convenience of the port. This was our first cruise since Covid. This ship was fabulous. The show’s excellent, the decor was very restful to the eyes! We enjoyed it!
Easy embarking and even easier to disembark wow! Well done Royal Caribbean!
We had read mixed reviews about the food in main dining room. We ate dinner every night only ...
