Very disappointing for very few exceptions by CruiserOleg

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Costa Pacifica

An overall and by and large very disappointing cruise. The worst cruise with Costa(our 3d) ever. Discriminatory, shameful, humiliating, dishonest, and deceptive "passports" affair for non-EU nationals. Dishonest, deceptive, arrogant, and inflexible attitude with the above mentioned by the ship authorities in charge.

The itinerary was great but that was the only thing that was great. by eac91

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Costa Pacifica

The itinerary was perfect! SOME of the staff on the ship was great, the bar staff especially Jover, Mangesh, Ricardo, Mario, and Jaypay(or Payjay). Halyna was excellent!! She was very helpful and willing to help in any way. We were surprised with a charge called "Hotel Service Charge" that were not told about and we were told by the receptionist that there was nothing that could be done.

Ports and Route great, Shops services disappointing. by jtwrsusd

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Costa Pacifica / Destination: Caribbean - Southern

Itinerary and length of cruise excellent. Services on Costa Pacífica and “buffet concept” as well as variety and quality of food outside main restaurant disappointing for a luxury cruise ship. Only one variety of cheapest cheese, every day same 2 cold cuts, only one sort of rye bread. Impression is that client should be forced to pay for quality extra with many things available only at extra cost. Even water only free during buffets. With this concept Costa is not competitive with most other cruise lines.

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (young children)

We just bookes Costa, because we could going by car to/from La Romana. The cruise was ok, but nothing really great. We enjoyed our holidays, but we like other cruise companies better.

Not a good experience by Whitmoremizzi

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Costa Pacifica / Destination: Europe - Eastern Mediterranean

Our bad experience was mainly about 1) layout of the ship 2)rudeness of the Italians on board 3) internet very expensive 4) concierge long queues and won't answer the phone 5) concierge not well signed 6) photographers in our faces during dinner every night 6) excursion let down 7) tender so hot we were fainting on board 8) doors to balcony should be sliding not banging our cabins shook from surrounding cabins. Didn't sleep at all by the end of the cruise we were exhausted. Shows were short 30 mins. Long queues for food. Italuans misbehaving in jacuzzi mainly children jumping in and out. Very bad taste. My husband does not own a smartphone and he could not read menus or bar list. It was an argument every night with the bar staff. Quite an embarrassment. Expensive Internet charges and I was 22hrs without it on one day. We will not promote it due to the above.

AVOID COSTA! by evieward

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Costa Pacifica / Destination: Europe - Western Mediterranean

It was a terrible cruise-even before a woman jumped to her death from a balcony above us, and hit the lifeboat with a big bang that woke us up, before the man overboard alert. 😱

The Good, Bad, and Ugly of cruising the Baltics onboard Costa Pacifica by westleyanson

Sail date: / Traveled as: Large Group
Ship: Costa Pacifica / Destination: Europe - Northern Europe

The question is...Would I recommend taking a Baltic Cruise on Costa Pacifica? I will reluctantly say “Yes”. The Cruise Ship is well worth the money spent. The destinations are absolutely exquisite. The only hesitation I have is the food as it was terrible.

First Costa Cruise was a success by Coustarrasses

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Costa Pacifica / Destination: Europe

Service was good and staff were very attentive. A special thanks to our restaurant waiter who was brilliant. We would recommend taking all meals in the restaurant (hot and cold self-serve buffet at breakfast) as the buffet restaurant was very busy and the tables always appeared nearly full. Get up early to reserve a sun lounger as they are all quickly taken

Best cruise so far! by a3stephani

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Costa Pacifica / Destination: Europe - Northern Europe

This was my 6th cruise and it was fantastic! This ship was always very clean, the food was very good and the entertainment at night was amazing. During a cruise I did in 2014 with Costa, the animation team only spoke Italian. They have changed this and now they say everything important in several languages (including English, Spanish and German) so non-Italians can also understand. Helsinki and Klaipeda were the only two ports that were a little disappointing. However, all the other cities were beautiful. Especially Stockholm, St. Petersburg and Riga were very nice cities. It was a shame that the ship left Stockholm quite early and in Klaipeda we only had to be back on board at 7:30pm. Would have loved for it to be the other way around. But this cruise was so good that I am already planning the next!!

This was a nice European... by edua

Sail date: /
Ship: Costa Pacifica

This was a nice European cruise. For those that speak English and are American, keep in mind it is an Italian cruise line. The food is definitely geared towards that. This was very different than the Caribbean cruises we have been on with primarily only Italian food on it, though the Italian food is excellent. Must pay for quite a few extras including coffee outside of breakfast, shuttles to leave the port at most stops, and ice cream at any time. Games and entertainment had quite a bit of English and several staff spoke at least 4 languages.

West Mediterranian cruise by vinko

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Costa Pacifica / Destination: Europe - Western Mediterranean

It was our first cruise and it was great. The boat was clean and well organised. The staff was friendly and mostly speak english despite the comments I've read earlier. We took Brindiamo drink package and I suggest it as well to save some money and enjoy your cruise. The weather was also great and we really enjoyed and relaxed.

Had a good time on... by swhelan1

Sail date: /
Ship: Costa Pacifica

Had a good time on this ship. Food was good - sat us with a table of people who only spoke russian so we tended to do buffet for dinner as we couldn't get a table for 2. Very good pastas (as to be expected) Drinks were ok - cocktails all tasted bland and ready made tasting. Prosecco and wines were much better standard however. Cabin was dated but fully functional. Had everything we needed. The entertainment was of a good quality and we enjoyed most shows.

Boring ship by pilotsrus

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Costa Pacifica / Destination: Europe - Western Mediterranean

Boring. Would not recommend the ship. The stops were great. The staff is almost invisible. The reception desk knows absolutely nothing of value. The bed was awful.
