Thread: Re Costa cruise

Hi has anyone sailed on the Costa Mediterranea from Venice or been on the ship this year

What a wonderful cruise!

While I've never been on your ship, certainly have always enjoyed our Costa cruises.

May sound silly ... but ... we LOVE "Toga Night"!

Just returned from a Transatlantic cruise on the Mediterranea. It is a magnificent ship. Food was fantastic and the cabins were comfortable. If bed is too hard, ask steward for a matress topper. This really helped us and we slept soundly through the night.
Entertainment was rather mundane, with only visual comedy, due to the multi-national composition of the passengers.
Cabaret shows were hilarious. Cruising in Carribean is more slanted toward American tastes. However Transatlantic and European cruises are geared to that population.
Germans dominated the cruise I was on, and they really dominated. The were for the most part very rude, loud and overbearing. Italians, Brits, Frence, Spanish, Canadians and Americans were in the minority. Aside from the blatent rudeness of most of the Germans, the cruise was really great. They would push ahead in line. Run to the front of the elevators. Step in front of you at the buffets, hoard the pool chairs and generally were annoying. Obviously they learned very little from history.
