Did u crush on the ship or after???

We just went last week of May and loved the ship - My grandaughtor loved the indoor gym and kids club. We watched alot of vidoes on the ship so I felt prepaired to do activities I liked, We ate main dining room all week and enjoyed the food everynite lots of specials to choose from. 8 of us so we had a nice table with ocean view. We loved Ocean Cay!

i was on this ship in 2019 and i celebrated new years (the start on 2020 and a new decade) on the ship but i didnt actually take it seriously as i was pretty young and and back then if my mom bought tickets, i couldnt care less, i just trusted that she wouldnt kill me and i packed my bags. recently i remembered about this ship and decided to watch the tour to relive some awesome memories and during the video i kept saying "wow i was on that". thanks for the tour

thanks for doing this! we are contemplating going on this exact ship. great timing.

Love watching you guys!!! Great bed side manor!

My husband and I sailing on her in late September early October to Newport, Boston, Maine and Canada. We love your videos. Beautiful fun couple.

Thank you so much for this video! My wife and I are going on our first cruise together and this cruise looked amazing to us 💯

Thanks for the great tour of the ship.👍😀

Great tour and she looks like a beautiful ship. I like that you did the tour with people on the ship, instead of before everyone boarded, and gave explanations as you walked around. It gives a good feel of the ship. Very enjoyable video. :)

Sailed MSC for Christmas- food was hit or miss just like the service but the ship was absolutely beautiful!! Msc offers a great value but the operations leave a lot to be desired. We will be sailing her again!

Loved it. Hope to get to try this one.

I was on MSC this past weekend on their new ship. Came back Sunday morning with an amazing souvenir. Yup you guessed it COVID and boy this time it was so much fun. Tuesday night I enjoyed an endless night of low oxygen in my lungs and buckets of sweat. It's Friday and I still have this wonderful headache. Thanks MSC for being so understaffed that no one was cleaning the stairwells often enough. We had so much fun being forced to take them because of your new horrible elevator service. Can't wait to sail again with my COVID carrying friends onboard. 😊 Thanks MSC

Great ship tour! I haven’t sailed on this MSC ship yet but I have been on the Seaside and Seashore which were nice but this one seems different in a nice way. I may just have to look into booking it!

I saw this ship pass by as I was at one of the Jersey shores. Never thought I would want to go but there's so much to do on ship. My kids are loving the crepe store and the bowling alley. Big thing I like it that it doesn't look as crowded as I've seen on the Norwegian Joy, another cruise I was considering. The prices for sailing are the cheapest especially for a balcony room. Will look into your comprehensive video about your likes and dislikes about MSC Meraviglia.

Great video!!!

Great video! You hit all the high points and interesting facts. You two are amazing! I hope to meet you in person one day on a future cruise!

You guys are awesome… We have sailed on the Meraviglia twice already. First time in 2019. We absolutely loved it second time which was just a few months ago. We noticed some big changes, but we did have fun… Love, love, love their private island we will be sailing on the sea shore in a few months… Thanks for all you do… Great ship tour video 🚢

Hey Alisa and Jason! 🖐 Hubby and I just got off the Meraviglia yesterday! We're you guys on that same sailing? If so, im so disappointed we didn't get to see you 😞 lol. We really enjoyed our time on the ship. The specialty restaurants were excellent esp. Butcher's Cut. The MDR''S were kind of a hit or miss with us. We do agree with you that the Buffet is unorganized but the hash browns and potatoes were so good!! The pool areas were a great size and beautiful esp the Bamboo pool area. Very tranquil. Hubby and I enjoyed some hot tub time in there. The ship is very elegant looking, and never really felt overly crowded. Didn't like the fact there were no ATM'S on board. We thoroughly enjoyed their private island (Ocean Cay) absolutely beautiful island. Had some fabulous drinks by the lighthouse Bar. 🍹😆. The crew were so great and friendly. Shout out to Marvin (our cabin steward) who gave us excellent service and the most beautiful towel animals ❤️.. we had celebrated our 30th wedding anniversary on the 12th and when we came back to the room, there was a pair of swans on our bed..I admit I teared up. Lol. Disembarkation was a flop in my opinion, didn't understand why we had to leave the room by 8 just to go to the theater to wait 2 hrs to disembark. Made no sense to us, so we just took our luggage and walked off the ship. Usually on other ships you can leave your luggage in your room and go have your last breakfast, then come back and disembark by 9-9:30. Overall we did enjoy our time on Meraviglia. Would we do it again? Probably. It is convenient for us since we live in New York, but we would know what to expect next time around. Hope you guys enjoyed your cruise!. We absolutely love your channel and have been subscribed since 2017. You guys are so down to earth and have such a beautiful family. God bless you guys. Stay safe and happy cruising 🛳 😊 😍

😢 Going on this ship in November can't wait it is our first time on msc.

Great tour! Also, Virgin Voyages will status match too.

We were on the Meraviglia in April and sat with 2 other couples, and there were only a handful of tables for 2

Thanks for showing the gym. You’re right strange location but nice size.

Can I ask what time of day you were filming at the bamboo pool? It does look peaceful.

I sailed on the Meraviglia on May 28-June 4. It was a beautiful ship. There private island was beautiful, I enjoyed the specialty restaurants Tapanyaki & Steakhouse, but not the Italian Restaurant. The buffet was fine but the foods temperature never felt hot.. I did enjoy the pizza when it came straight out the oven ..their private island was beautiful. My biggest complaints was the cleanliness of the room, and there was a smell of sewerage at times on the ship. I would definitely sail again with them, their prices are amazing..

Hi, thank you in advance for your reply. I’m just wondering don’t you think it would be a great idea to put on the cruise planner each day for the ship so gas could come to your app and see a video showing all the daily activities on an MSC ship from morning tonight so they could see individually what bars have what Latin bar or what Latin club or singer is it night or Broadway shows to really get an idea of the experience on MSC ship?

I have cruised Carnival only. I have taken 4 European cruises with Carnival and was thinking of trying MSC for Europe. They are considerably cheaper. For Europe it is so port inland you are rarely in your room or on the ship. Just eat and sleep. Most time in ports all day. What are your thoughts on taking them? Just eating breakfast and dinner on the ship. Thanks!😊

I have heard mixed reviews about MSC. What was your opinion on the food?

How does the Aurea dining experience differ? I see flex dining but what does that actually mean?

Where do you park your car in New York post? Cost?

Do you recommend getting a separate meal plan?

What websites do you use to find accommodation in NYC...im coming from UK.

Alisa when were you on? I just got off 6/18...🙂

I read that breakfast and lunch times are short and fixed, is that true? No food is served during non-dining hours?+

People say yacht club is the only way but I cant justify paying another 4k to be isolated from the rest of this beautiful ship

MSC Meraviglia - the deck plans on the MSC website don't indicate where the public restrooms are on the ship. Can you let me know where they are generally located on the public decks.

Amazing video! Thanks for the in-depth reviews and explanations .. now my question is tipping do they charge you extra for tipping at the end of the ship? I do not see that charge here or does this ship work different when it comes to that? Thank you

Just got done with this ship a few weeks ago and I'm conflicted. Beautiful ship, great service, 3 pools, great pizza. But the food was only good, the desserts where only okay. The specialty dining was pretty good, but not amazing. Two shows were GREAT, the rest were very sub par. The shopping is HORRIBLE, especially the sales. Lots of crew didn't speak very good English, even some of the ones running the game shows, they were literally reading choppy English off queue cards and didn't understand what the game was... We also lost two ports because of weather, but we were within SITE, SITE of the private island and the weather was good, we turned and just puttered away at a few knots, so very disappointed, if we were running from bad weather we should have been MOVING at speed, not just puttering. The parties under the changing ceiling were too crowded, all you could do was jump, no room to actually dance or mingle and talk with people, making the evening parties less than enjoyable. Lastly, the cost to park at the pier was $495 for a 10 day cruise. THAT IS INSANE!
