Featured Review
A cheap, cheerful but interesting itinerary, spoiled by an unpleasant disembarkation and offhand customer service.
"By this time I was one of very few passengers still outside the terminal, complete with distinctive, bright yellow transfer tags and still no-one approached me, there was no-one with a sign, nothing.I like the ship, with its many open decks for watching and photographing wildlife but the Deck 3 (promenade) layout is frustrating, with only one exit door per side, meaning long walks to get outside, and no circular route around the entire ship - apart from that it's a lovely place to sit and watch the ocean...."Read More

Review for a Transatlantic Cruise on Costa Favolosa

I hadn't cruised with Costa before, but with 5 other lines. The itinerary (Spain to Brazil) interested me as a biologist and natural history photographer, and the price was very reasonable, probably because the relocation nature and the lack of port visits meant the ship was (according to the crew) about half empty. My double cabin, for one person and no single supplement, was outstanding value ...

Terrible experience. A constant struggle against the the very unhappy and agressive employees, bad and scarce food, bad or absent service, bad organization and lack of customer service on all ends. Very long waiting lines everywhere and for everything. Salad was a luxury good on board. Either one day carrots or one day bell pepper. Both was.impossible. Generally not a very good quality, neither ...

What should have been a relaxing cruise for two ended up as a constant battle against a ship and its crew.
There was no hospitality on board, worst cruise experience I have ever had. At one point I had to fear for my life and not one person would take responsibility. We were stuck in line on deck 2 with over 100 other passenger for more than a hour with no information or assistance, only after ...

All us residents should read this review before opting for costa cruise lines (in europe) or this ship, the costa favolosa. If you are familiar with the “normal” us-type ships (e.g., carnival, royal caribbean, ncl, holland america, etc) then favolosa will come as a shock to you and the standards you are used to. i am not trying to be disparaging but simply stating the facts in comparison to ...

If you are a North American traveller and have done cruises with American companies (Royal, Carnival, NCL etc.) you will be extremely disappointed.
The service sucks - not enough staff to accommodate all the guests.
The employees are rude and do you a favour they want to help you.
The service is super slow and takes forever to get anything.
The food options are mediocre, really nothing ...

As most of you know I can no longer go ashore but stay on the ship, Costa's team in Genoa & on board, made this cruise special for me, and a great big thanks to all involved in helping me cruise again.
Firstly I had a loan of a wheelchair for the whole cruise, which proved wonderful as I could push myself round ship & to Club Dining room. The cabin (Suite) on deck seven was just the same as ...

We chose the cruise for the destinations which we had not been to previously. The embarkation in Valencia was a fiasco and no assistance when entering the ship from Costa staff. Beautiful ship, we had a classic inside cabin which was fine. We did notice that the carpet wasn’t too clean but other than that okay. Went to buffet to get a bite to eat and drink!!! No way, it is only open for short ...

We choose this sailing because of the itinerary.
We are experienced cruisers and have been on over 30 cruises.
We had never tried Costa Lines but virtually have sailed with all other cruiselines including Norwegian, Holland America, Carnival, Royal, Princess etc.. We had thought how bad could Costa be?
Firstly. when we boarded, our Passports were immediately confiscated When we ...

I had been on this cruise before and had a nice time. This time it was a different experience because our fellow travellers were rude and unfriendly.
I have no idea whether this has anything to do with Brexit, but despite my trying with my Italian and French, they didn't want to know.
We had a personal problem on board that meant we had to go home early, so a smile or a greeting would have ...

We chose this cruise for the itinerary which was extensive and awesome! We went in calling this a Motel 6 on water, having very low expectations. We were so wrong, it exceeded in almost every way.
Pro's: The ship is very very clean. The staff is very friendly, and helpful. The food was so good, we never had a bad meal! The food is extremely fresh and presented in a beautiful manner. Even the ...
