Europe - Western Mediterranean Cruise Reviews

The ship was a marvel on the sea. I was sailing through the Mediterranean with my favorite shopping mall and favorite hotel.

We had a great time! So much to see and do.

Was a little older, but in good shape. There was a great walkway with shops and restaurants and all the bars had nice themes. The Vault was nice as well.

Food in specialty restaurants is very good. Food in main dining room is average.

Being in our early 30's we thought we would be outnumbered by a lot of older folks. We were, however there were plenty of younger partiers on the ship which made it energetic and fun. The food was awesome and the ship itself was pristine. The balcony staterooms were large and spotless. Do listen to people on here complaining about the food. They are just being grumpy and should stay home next time.

Lack of elevators, therefore long wait times. Staff members not welcoming. None of the service staff spoke English or Italian - very difficult to communicate.

Ship and staff were great. Food well presented and very good, although the choices are not as good as they once were. Some staff for the teens were impatient and not too good---the females were excellent. I especially like Royal Caribbean because of the ship layout---the "main street" is wonderful AND they accommodate smokers. No more Celebrity, and it was once my favorite.

Food was terrible, shore excursions were expensive, compared to other tour operators, drinks were expensive, compared to other cruise lines

The ship is very nice and very comfortable, it is however starting to show signs of aging. The signs of age are everywhere; cracked floor signs in the elevator, dented trim around the poles, dust inside of display cases, pool bottom needing to repainted. etc. The officers and staff are very friendly and very accomodating, the food was very good.

Our Room was lovely. We had a room at the end of the boat with a larger baclony and great views. Our attendent was wonderful and made us different towel animals and laided our nighties out everynight. The staff in the dining room also took gd care of us if we wanted something different or extra no problem. I will certainly go with Royal Carribean cruises lines again.

The ship is one of the Voyager class ships and I do not think you can get much better for wow factor than this bad boy. If you don't like waling, pick a smaller boat. If you enjoy all the activities, basketball, golf, rock climbing etc.. then this is your ship. We had a full passenger load and other than the first day, I never thought the ship was crowded. The cabins are a good size with adequate balcony space. This is my 5th sailing with RCCL and I had higher expectations of the staff and food based on prior sailings. Let me say that just because one ship did not exceed expectations does not mean that RCCL is a bad line. All ships vary in experience and knowing this I would say we still had a great time but we had a few disappointing issues mostly related to the dining room. Fortunately, we were able to eat at Chops and Johnny Rockets most of the time and the food/staff/service was excellent there so it more than made up for the problems in the dining room.

Rooms with balconies are very comfortable. The entertainment was fabulous. The food in cafetereia was ok, but food served in the restaurant was very dissapointing.

great ship but bad in high winds

The ship was only two years old and in great shape! The food was great and never ending.

Ship was very clean, but NCL truly works to rip you off at every turn.

The food was terrible. The service was slow and not at all up to the expectations of American cruise lines. I do NOT recommend that any Americans take Costa Cruises. Poorly run activities, overly crowded decks with all food service, entertainment and pools on one deck. Other European passengers were not friendly and clearly did not want Americans to be on their cruise line.

Great facility. Great Service. Clean. Dinning was great. Lines and waiting was not.

A very satisfying experience

We enjoyed the cruise. There weren't many Americans and not too many English spekaing people, so conversation with others was difficult.

Your cruise to see the countries chosen, the cost of the excursions were more than the cost of the cruise for two people. Great cruise for the over 70 set.
