Completed a transatlantic from US to,Barcelona. The Costa Smeralda did a Mediterranean cruise 2 days after our transatlantic and went to ports we wished to see, such as Sicily, Rome… Upon boarding, we were advised we needed to download the Costa App in order to get the daily news, events, times & menus. U.S Americans could not download the app (due to incompatibility between Costa & ...

Costa was chosen due to ports of calls, and past experience on Costa many years ago. From day 1 cruise was a disappointment. Four of us seated at 2 different tables. Waiter could care less about my wife and I at our own table. Food when it did arrive was coolish at best. It got worse everyday. This was not a cruise but a ferry ride as passengers embarked and disembark at every port. Talking to ...

We are veterans of about 25 cruises. We have been on NCL, HAL, Celebrity, Windstar, Viking, Princess and Carnival. We have cruised the Caribbean, the Mediterranean the Baltic, Alaska and a trans Atlantic. This was our first cruise on Costa. We joined some extended family who had already booked. They are European. 1) The Costa App is not compatible with the US App Store, so we could not ...

Every information you need for the ship including meal and drink menus were in the costa app which none of the American cells networks are compatible with. Didn’t find that information until 3 days later. If you have a smart phone you can still scan QR code of wherever place you are in the boat. Well they should have that detail disclose somewhere when you book the cruise as they know who is from ...

The vessel is nice but noting other than that. we have been before twice with MSC and its noting to compare. The vessel was full and it doesn't seems prepared for that as we always needed to stand in long lines every where. You always need to use an extra effort to get something and it shouldn’t be like that when you are on holiday. The food is absolutely ridicules bad, both in the ...

Horrible experience with Costa Smeralda!

Everything was terrible! Food, entertainment, customer service, restaurant staff, photo staff, etc. The worst of all was the lack of variety and amount of food in the buffets and main dinning rooms. All food was repetitive every day; focaccia with tea or water, oriental pasta with no flavor, apples, honeydews, and more focaccia. i mean, we were hungry throughout the cruise. The waiters were ...

IS THIS THE FUTURE OF CRUISING?!?

We chose this cruise based on the itinerary. We have cruised many times on several different cruise lines. We appreciate the ups and downs of cruising and have come to learn what to expect and not expect. That said - this is not necessarily a criticism, simply a fact. If you are an English speaker, DO NOT TAKE THIS CRUISE. Sadly, we were ignorant of this. Let me be clear. WE were the ...

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 ...
