paisley1370 Posted May 21, 2018 #1 Share Posted May 21, 2018 I am looking at a Greek/Croatian itinerary. Ive narrowed it down to Royal Caribbeans Rhapsody of the Sea or MSC Lirica. Heres the catch.... the RC one only has oveanviews available while MSC lirica has suites..... but the suite is wayyyy cheaper than the RC oceanview. Im seeing mixed reviews on the Lirica and i dont know which one to pick! I keep thinking...."the msc suite is much cheaper for a reason". What is it? Im a english speaking ,non smoker and would be traveling with a 3 yr old. Help, please! Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EllaDuChien Posted May 22, 2018 #4 Share Posted May 22, 2018 I have done the Rhapsody Greek Isles cruise and loved it. I cannot compare it to MSC since I haven't sailed them yet, but I had no issues with Rhapsody. I have a review of the cruise in my signature (fair warning, its long!).

glittergal1 Posted May 22, 2018 #5 Share Posted May 22, 2018 What was wrong or bad? Please explain. Cabin small, old , Service very hit and miss, with some very rude and ignorant bar men , main dining room food fair taste wise but very lukewarm . Buffet very chaotic food mediocre . Entertainment the worst ive ever seen our local pub has better entertainment total dumbing down of dress code many shorts and flip flops in main ding room on formal might , ladies sitting in swim wear on stools during the evening in the bar , (not the pool bar inside bar) Day time entertainment very holiday camp Overall service , food and entertainment was very poor Drinks very expensive , photographs very expensive compared to MSC It was my 3rd with RCI and Im not sure I would book again price wise its not as good value as MSC You say you are travelling with a 3 year old is it just yourself and your child?

Thanks for your option. We will be on the Rhapsody then on Sinfonia next month as a B2B, but on the 2 ships. Will provide our reviews. Been on RCI and MSC many times. Each have their pluses and minuses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
