Review summary
I've cruised with Costa before (as well as other cruise lines). I was rather disappointed with this particular cruise, however. Costa really made some serious cuts with this cruise and/or ship. The schedule of events on board was dull, to say the least. It seemed that the cruise director really slacked off on his job. It was something of a half-efforted entertainment schedule. Furthermore, many of the crew on board were rather rude. Customer service was not a priority on this ship. More than a few times, I heard a crew member tell a customer "That's not my job," or "ask someone else." There was a general I-don't-care attitued aboard this cruise.
With that in mind, the ports of call were amazing. We had a blast everywhere we went! The route was amazing, and I would take this cruise again (only, I wouldn't pay as much for it) just to go to the same ports. I would, however, have to bear in mind that the cruise would be primarily a mode of transportation, and not expect much regarding entertainment on board.
