MSC Virtuosa 12 to 26 July 2025
Our initial experience embarking MSC Virtuosa was 10/10 but as the cruise progressed there were little areas where the attention to detail was lacking. We also gave 10/10 for the disembarking experience too. Food and drinks were good but they ran out of NZ Sauvignon Blanc by day 3 which was very disappointing so early on a 14 night cruise! Yacht Club was a great choice as in the main it was easy to get a sun bed on sea days. Any time dining was also good. Menu variety was good and there was also a healthy option on both the lunch and dinner menu. We did 3 specialty meals (at an extra cost) which were okay but wouldn’t bother with them again. The YC pool is great for adults but too small when there are young children aboard. Whilst this didn’t spoil our time there were other cruisers who found the noise and splashing around not too their liking. We did experience an incident in the YC Top Sail Lounge where a’10’ year old ran into the bar and collide with a butler who had a tray full of champagne which ended up on the floor with broken glass and champagne everywhere. No sign of his parents, we felt sorry for the staff as they had to clean up a lot of mess. The staff were excellent and provided us with an exceptional service. Always happy to serve and chat too. Entertainment in the YC Top Sail Lounge could have been more varied and upbeat. Our first time with MSC and in Yacht Club and certainly not our last.
