We have been on 2 previous cruises on another cruise line. We were very satisfied with the staff, accommodations, food, dining times, and entertainment. Our 25th Wedding Anniversary gift to ourselves was truly a once in a lifetime celebration. Ship Details: Dining/Food Stateroom Quality Ship Staff Quality Entertainment & Activities Read this user's port of call reviews: Bari, Italy; Mykonos, Greece; Santorini, Greece; Katakolon (Olympia), Greece Collapse List of Ports Ports of Call: Bari, Italy Bari was just OK. We took a double-decker bus tour on our own. The town is nice, our guide was informative, but it was just ok. Mykonos, Greece My favorite Port. We got to Mykonos just in time to have a wonderful dinner at a beachfront restaurant and to watch the beautiful sunset. Then we walked the narrow alleyways and did some shopping. It was an incredible evening. Don't Miss: The sunset. Santorini, Greece Unbelievable views. Don't Miss: Oia Village. Katakolon (Olympia), Greece Katakalon/Olimpia. Katakalon and Olimpia were awesome. It was amazing to be standing in the same place where the first Greek athletes trained and competed. Katakalon is a lovely village with shopping and cafes along the water. Don't Miss: Olimpia. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you find this review helpful?

The boat was fairly new and gorgeous. It was kept exceptionally clean throughout the trip. The staff was friendly and helpful. The food was great for a cruise ship. And the best part was the price. Great cruise for the money..

Collapse List of Ports Ports of Call: Catalina Island (Isla Catalina), Dominican Republic Very nice beach.. Relaxing day. Just a catered day at the beach. Very pleasant. Cruise ship staff were wonderful. San Juan, Puerto Rico The port was beautiful, the city was interesting and easily accessable, and the people were great. Great port.. Cant wait to return someday. Don't Miss: The old fort on the hill above the port. Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas, U.S.V.I. Perfect. Absolutely gorgeous place. Best and most beautiful place Ive ever been to on a cruise ship stop.. Don't Miss: A tour of the island. The scenery and the photo opportunities are the best anywhere. 2 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you find this review helpful?

Overall Rating: About the Reviewer: Age: 30 - 49 Cruise Experience: First cruise Traveler Type: Couple Wonderful Way to Travel! by Sheila from Ontario, Canada Sailing date: Mar 2007 Pros: The entire ship was sparkling clean, great service, great food, too hard to pick just one great feature. Was not sure what to expect, as we had never been on a cruise before. I had not heard of Costa Cruises, but after talking to other people on the cruise who had travelled on other cruiselines before said that Costa was one of the best ships that they had been on and I would definately have to agree. Enjoyed every minute and will definately cruise again. Ship Details: Entertainment & Activities Activities: We did not attend many of the activities, but there were many to choose from throughout the day. Entertainment: We attended the shows every evening after dinner. Enjoyed all of them! 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you find this review helpful?

Overall Rating: About the Reviewer: Age: 30 - 49 Cruise Experience: 4 - 6 cruises Traveler Type: Couple Good Cruise, But Could Be So Much Better by Lynda from Rochester, NY, USA Sailing date: Mar 2007 Pros: The beauty of it! Well I'll just quickly summarize it: only 2 restaraunts (buffet and dining) and needs more variety of food. Service in the dine in restaraunt is horribly slow and the same food they serve in the buffet for dinner, but more! The language translations is loud and not very convenient, it takes 5 minutes to translate 5 languages. Children and Teen Centers could be better, but impossible to find the teen center. Overall, Could be Better! Ship Details: Entertainment & Activities Activities: Could have more. Entertainment: Loved it. Needs more children's shows, though. 3 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you find this review helpful? Overall Rating: About the Reviewer: Age: 30 - 49 Cruise Experience: 2 - 3 cruises Traveler Type: Couple Costa is the way to go for European crui by George from McKinney, TX Sailing date: Jun 2007 Pros: Ship is beautiful and well appointed. Balcony staterooms are excellent! Oustanding value, service, and itinerary. Costa Mediterranea is a beautiful ship with excellent staterooms. Good, well-organized excursions. Excellent restaurant. Only complaints: embarkation process and buffet offerings need improvement. Ship Details: Entertainment & Activities Entertainment: Shows were enjoyable, but arrive early for good seating! The view from many seats in the theater was not great. Read this user's port of call reviews: Bari, Italy; Mykonos, Greece; Santorini, Greece; Katakolon (Olympia), Greece Collapse List of Ports Ports of Call: Bari, Italy Bari is relaxing. Bari is a nice place to walk around and view some beautiful churches and fortresses. No excursion required. Don't Miss: There's a great little gelato place near the bus stop where the shuttle bus drops you off in town. Nice couple from Chicago own the place. Look for the American flags in front. Mykonos, Greece Old Town Mykonos - no excursion required! Mykonos is a great place to shop and to unwind after a long day on Santorini. Would have liked to spend more than a few hours here to really get to know the place. Don't Miss: The PELICANS. Huge pinkish-white pelicans! They walk around Mykonos like they own the place. We even found one strolling through a dress shop. Santorini, Greece Santorini is FANTASTIC - don't miss it! OIA Village excursion was outstanding! Best of the cruise in my opinion. Time is left to shop in Fira, but with small shops and narrow streets it gets CROWDED! Don't Miss: Oia Village. Katakolon (Olympia), Greece Olympia is a bit overrated. It is certainly worthwhile to visit Olympia, the birthplace of the Olympics, but excursions leave a little to be desired. The site is very crowded, tourguides are hard to hear, and time on your own to wander the grounds is very brief. 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you find this review helpful?

Ship Details: Entertainment & Activities Read this user's port of call reviews: Casa De Campo, Dominican Republic; Catalina Island (Isla Catalina), Dominican Republic; San Juan, Puerto Rico; Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas, U.S.V.I. Collapse List of Ports Ports of Call: Casa De Campo, Dominican Republic The local show, dancing, music. The bus ride was a little scary though. Catalina Island (Isla Catalina), Dominican Republic Interesting. Don't Miss: The local show. San Juan, Puerto Rico The weather was raining, and we arrived in the early evening. Dark, wet and a lot of people walking around, begging for money. The need for more security (police), and to arrive earlier in the day would help. Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas, U.S.V.I. Don't Miss: The nightclubs at night. 0 out of 6 people found this review helpful. Did you find this review helpful?
