Costa Cruise Reviews

We took a cruise with Costa Firenze in July 2023 from Kiel to North Europa (Denmark & Norway). It was our first cruise with Costa and we were a little bit sceptical as our last cruise with a italien cruise company (MSC) was a huge disappointment. Embarkation in Kiel was really smooth, friendly stuff and everything great organized. Within 20 mins we were on Board. On Board we were welcomed by a ...

Am presently aboard on Pacifica, cruise definetly below average service. Although ambience in ship is modern it is immediately felt that company is cutting costs abnormormally. Only cruise out of thirteen we went, where rooms are being cleaned once a day!!. Temperature aboard is being kept high in these hot summer days notwithstanding you turn ac on full cold. Moreover overcrowding is a big ...

When one doesn’t eat well, one doesn’t travel well. We have to say that this was the worst cruise (of 7) that we’ve been on from the food perspective. For Italians, this should be seriously embarrassing. If you’re going to take this cruise due to the route or timing, then best go for the pizza at their payable afternoon-only restaurant La Nostra Pizza. It won’t be your best pizza, but it’s ...

We chose this cruise because of the dates and the itinerary, which fit with other travel plans. Also, the price for the cruise was extremely reasonable compared to other cruise lines making the same itinerary. However, we were hesitant about booking with Costa, largely because of the negative reviews on this and other sites from U.S. Citizens. But I must conclude that these negative reviews ...

The worst ship ever very disappointed!!! Waste of money and time and everything The air-conditioning , not working always heating. we complained but for nothing Supposed all included but you have to pay almost for everything : -pizza you have to pay - ice-cream you have to pay - for food you have to pay - most of the drinks have to pay I took Jack Daniel's 11€ plus 8€ ...

This was our first cruise and was surprised how much we enjoyed it. The food was excellent, breakfast lunch sometimes and dinner, just chose a quieter restaurant and it changes the whole experience. For breakfast and lunch you can choose your restaurant from the many available, for dinner you are allocated a restaurant and time from a choice of 3 evening sittings,if you are not happy with ...

After returning from a vacation, we decided last minute to try Costa Toscana. Both my wife and I have worked in the Cruise Industry in the past. We wanted to share our experience with our 10yr old boy, to show him what cruising is/was like, for him to experience the things that we have experienced throughout our ship life careers. Most of the places we visited during this cruise, we have already ...

I went on the costa pacifica in June 2023. We spent 1.2k per person for an all inclusive experience and a cabin with a balcony. -The Cabin: The cabin is small but enough for two people and the balcony is a must with great views and lovely breeze. The furniture is old and needs to be updated but expected on an ageing cruise ship and not a big issue. The biggest issue about the cabin was a ...

We are experienced cruisers, first, we worked for Celebrity Cruises for over 5,5 years, and then we took cruises with several American companies, and for the first time decided to go with the European cruise line. It was ok, but I wasn't impressed I should say. The feeling was that the whole ship was designed just to make money and not for the guests to enjoy the cruise. The buffet area is so ...

Just back from a great week on Costa Toscana, Booked this cruise whilst onboard the same ship when it was in Dubai. Booking onboard gives you a discount off the cruise fare price, rather than Onboard Spend which other cruise lines offer. At the moment it is 10% so can be a quite significant discount. With Costa on most of their cruises you can board at any point it stops at generally, so I ...
