MSC Magnifica was just that!

Left Miami on Friday and back on Monday. Stopped in Key West and Nassau. Embarkation was fast and smooth. We did not bring much luggage so we carried on our bags. On the ship 10 minutes after arriving for our 11:30am checkin. First impressions were how clean and well maintained the ship was and staff were there to answer any questions. Dropped bags in state room which was being cleaned and this ...

I have done several cruises on very large and luxurious ships, as well as on small and very simple ships. I took the risk of doing the cruise with MSC on the weekend of April 12 to April 15, 2024 and I was a little skeptical that I would have a good time;...but what a great surprise I found, it has been one of my best experiences traveling on a cruise. The service and attention was excellent, much ...

Food on MSC- problematic

Review for a Caribbean - Eastern Cruise on MSC Seaside

First Time Cruiser • Age 50s

The MSC Seaside is a nice enough ship, we saw good entertainment on board, and our excursions purchased through MSC were great. We chose the ship because of the itinerary. The FOOD on MSC, however, was a massive disappointment- our rating score reflects how we feel about our food experience. Both in the Main Dining Room and in the buffet, our food was often not hot enough, bland, or ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 40s

I picked this cruise because it allowed us to visit 6 ports and by getting creative with excursions, we got to visit 8 islands in a week. We generally had a wonderful time. The food was good at both the main dining room for dinner as well as the buffet. I was generally always able to eat something I liked. They have hot sauce, salt, and pepper in the buffet so you can spice up any food you find ...

An Honest Review: Go with an open mind and do not be scared of other reviews.

I read a lot of horror about msc and the magnifica and is it luxury, not at all; does it have flaws, of course, was it enjoyable, very. Have an open mind because not everything can and should be perfect 1. Embarkation- very easy, we embarked an hour before scheduled time and it was totally fine. Once on board you go straight to your room (if it is ready) and you get your key card and we were ...

You had high expectations and I left very disappointed it's really my experience I made the mistake of not checking the comments first and for me the worst thing was that ...

A pleasant surprise!

Review for a Caribbean - Eastern Cruise on MSC Seascape

After reading all the negative reviews of the Seascape, I approached this cruise with some trepidation. Fortunately, I was pleasantly surprised! We have been on roughly three dozen cruises, on many of the main cruise lines, so we do have some measure of comparison. We had been given two different boarding times (not a great start) so we split the difference and arrived halfway between the two - ...

We sailed on the MSC Seascape in February in cabin 9002. We had reservations about the large number of guests (5056 on our cruise) aboard the ship (we prefer ships with 2000 guests) but to make sure we had space to retreat to we bought the extra large balcony cabin. We had a wonderful time with a few hiccups. 1) Embarkation took exactly 30 minutes from when we entered the building to crossing ...

Well I love seaside , we were cruising on February 2024. It was a different cruise from Guadeloupe than from Miami. Majority of cruisers were French , English was the minority. They actually told us one day in the guest services line we were in the French line up! What!!! I was taken to another service desk. Lol. Glad I did the port stops but won't do it again. (Stops were, Dominica, St ...

2-5 Cruises • Age 60s

Despite the negative reviews of MSC I chose to cruise on the Seaside because the Caribbean/Antilles itinerary was exactly what I was looking for. 6 Islands in 7 days. I booked an MSC excursion in each port and found the guides to be friendly, informative and fun. I had especially been looking forward to the Botanical Gardens and beach tour in Guadeloupe because I really enjoy the British detective ...
