Costa Firenze

7 Night United Arab Emirates & Oman (Dubai Roundtrip)

Sail date: March 04, 2022

Ship: Costa Firenze

Cabin number: 7379

Traveled as: Singles/Friends

Review summary

This was my first ever cruise. Overall I was impressed with the ship and the facilities. Pools should have been bigger and maybe better ways to set up restaurant reservations but the only major flaw which can be managed by downloading the app offline is that the Costa app does not traditionally work on USA phones.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

Main dining was great, however because the USA cannot use the app on our phones, it made food and drinks harder to track and find.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Size of the balcony room was good but could be tight if you are using the sofa bed as well.

Ship tip

Make sure you sideload the Costa App if you are American. It will have the majority of everything you need on there.

Ports of call

Dubai, U.A.E.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
It was not too bad but yet once again language barriers did not help too much as well in regards to confusion on disembarking experience
