More Feedback from our customers about this ship (click for details):
Ship overall:
- Good staff,
- Not enough spaces for all guests in restaurants and shows. Little personal touch from the crew.
- nice ship, modern and clean.
- Large modern ship. Great variety of entertainment venues
- The food is Italian and not as varied as some cruise liners but really good and sometimes gourmet quality
- Really great cabin service, Sheila was so kind.
- During the long cruise we like to play cards, on Smeralda there were too few places where to play. E.g. In Pizzeria people were told to go away in spite of that the restaurant was always in lunch time almost empty. Nobody understood why.
- We enjoyed the cuisine, the wine and the service, friendly staff, however we would appreciated more variety of the food and clearly the authenticity of the cuisine given the fact that we were traveling through Italy, Spain and France....
- you lose hours to solve a problem, thry alwayd send you to next person
