This was my second cruise with Costa. First one was with Smeralda . Check-in and access of the cabin worked well. Deck 2 insides. The journey from Copenhagen Danmark to Tarragona Spain went perfectly.
The cabin was okey, interior grey but the bed was really good. The food is varied, the breakfast and lunch buffet is tasteless ,hot food is cold when you have found somewhere to sit. Restaurant ...
I chose this cruise because it had the right mix of fjords, northern ports, and international feel. I did not want to be on a cruise with a whole bunch of Americans, so instead chose a cruise with a whole bunch of Italians. This made a big difference in appeal and also in quality. Overall the cruise was fine and I am glad we did it. However there are a lot of issues at a corporate level I ...
I have previously been cruising with NCL (Norwegian Epic) and Royal Caribbean (Adventure of the Seas), so that is what I have to compare with. We always opted for the cheapest possible price/cabin. I was travelling with my wife and two kids (11 and 14).
Embarkation:
This was fairly easy. Our luggage (3 out of 4 pieces) arrived at our cabin as expected. My suitcase didn't and the Cabin ...
Costa favalosa was the worst cruise I have ever been on. I have been on many cruise lines. the food quality was only a little better than a high school cafeteria food. The entertainment was poor. The ship had no real food choices but italian and that was very poor. All other ships have multiple food types and different places to eat. If the main dining hall was open the buffet was closed ...
This was not my family’s first time on a cruise liner, however Costa surpassed our expectations.
Our trip immediately started on a good note. Even though we were quite skeptical for the embarkation procedure I have to say it was flawless. The staff was very helpful and midday sharp we boarded the ship, an hour before planned. As soon as we boarded the ship we were instructed that lunch was ...
Very unorganized cruise
Poor English speaking staffs
Cabin carpet needs cleaning
Charged water at restaurant
Few choices of the food
Poor entertainment activities for kids, only 1 ping pong tables and 3 football tennis tables
Poor show arrangement
Messed up excursion
Worst disembark experience! Had to go back to port to pick up missing luggage. Unresponsive staffs!!!
Costa --- first time ...
We recently took a cruise on the Costa Fortuna in Eastern Europe. We chose the Costa cruise line simply because we had no other choices as we had specific dates we could travel in August. We departed from Copenhaugen and made port at Stockholm, Sweden, Tallin, Estonia, St. Petersburg, Russia, and Warnemunde, Germany. From Germany we returned to Copenhaugen.
This was my family’s fourth cruise. We ...
As a frequent and enthusiastic Costa client I was extremely disappointed this time.
What was meant to be a romantic getaway turned into a nightmare. Where do I begin....
Well for a start, I'd like to point put that the itinerary was excellent and has been my favourite so far. Visiting both the Baltic cities and the Fjords in a 2 week cruise the stopovers just get better and better, allowing one ...
I took a cruise on the Costa Fortuna departing from Copenhagen. She is 10 years old and looks her age.
The good things:
Size of the cabin was very convenient. Lots of cabinets and a large bed which was very comfortable.
Many shelves in the bathroom and safety measures not to fall or slip.
The balcony we booked was small but with a table and two comfortable chairs and it was nice sitting ...
Realizing that everyone will have a different perspective this review is from a reasonably upscale couple from Canada who have been on several cruises. Here is what we feel is "the good, the bad and the ugly".The Good: Great service from all of the staff. Our room steward, room service, our dining servers, the bar staff, the tour desk and the front desk, were all terrific. They were always ...
