Description

An evolution of Holland America's "Vista" class ship, the Costa Luminosa has a platform similar in size to the Queen Victoria. Created with the aim of providing Costa Cruises with a superior cruise product, its hotel layout was also designed by Farcus and is simpler and therefore more suited to European customers.
It is a panamax ship, making it ideal for world tours. It is worth mentioning the presence on board of the Samsara Spa, which is certainly the best chain of wellness centres built on cruise ships.

Grande Crociera Luminosa 2010

I liked

I didn't like

Comment

Crociera del Club, ottimo ricordo, con ottimo personale, ancora della vecchia scuola e nave nuovissima. Come struttura quella classe di navi, con ponti di passaggio e nessun ambiente intimo e riservato, non mi è mai piaciuta, ma ha rifiniture eleganti e piacevoli. Sono stato molto bene a bordo.

Costa luminosa proprio no

I liked

I didn't like

Comment

Il rapporto qualità/prezzo è decisamente sproporzionato. Sconsiglio completamente la Costa Luminosa, mi sembra che le cose a bordo della nave vengano svolte basandosi sull'improvvisazione, non ho assolutamente trovato una struttura ben organizzata ed efficiente. In particolare il personale dell'ospitalità al desk era molto lento nel risolvere i problemi, e, in aggiunta, l'animazione era molto noiosa e ripetitiva (si limitavano a fare giochi, tornei e serate ballo di gruppo suonando sempre le stesse canzoni).

Adriatico con Costa Luminosa

I liked

Cabina e pulizia

I didn't like

Servizio nei ristoranti

Comment

Nave ben tenuta, poco innovativa ma sempre piacevole, con begli ambienti e tanti bar dove sostare e passare del tempo. La nostra cabina con balcone era ampia, luminosa, sempre pulitissima. Personale generalmente cortese e disponibile anche se al buffet e al ristorante non sempre riusciva a servire i tavoli con efficienza. Trovo la Spa troppo cara per i servizi che offre, mentre ho apprezzato gli spettacoli teatrali di altissimo livello. Espeirenza nel complesso positiva, ottimo il rapporto qualità-prezzo.

The staff were amazing with organizing everything I asked for. I was lucky enough to ask my girlfriend to become my wife. I organized a private table on the rear of the ship at sunset on a separate deck.

Luminosa per davvero!

I liked

I didn't like

Comment

"Luminosa" di nome e di fatto, caratterizzata dove possibile da materiale vetrato, o comunque "riflettente". Un'atmosfera un po' kitsch ma tutto sommato gradevole. Una settimana ricca di attività, di spettacoli serali e di luoghi da visitare. L'unica pecca, ma di grande importanza, sono le piscine. Troppo piccole in relazione al numero degli ospiti, e, avendo soggiornato ad Agosto, devo dire che il "problema" è stato ben visibile e "sentito".

solo inglese

I liked

I didn't like

Comment

Servizio ottimo, camerieri ottimi , spettacoli e animazione ottimi, cibo buono. Per quanto riguarda le escursioni, costosissime, senza convenzioni e costretti a spendere per il pasto. Il tempo per l’escursione è inoltre molto ridotto . Nessuna guida italiana e per lo più con l’autista del bus che parlava solo inglese. Praticamente in 7 giorni di crociera abbiamo speso più di escursioni che di altro.

Die Costa Luminosa ist ein mittelgroßes Schiff, auf dem es Ihnen sehr gut geht. Die Restaurants waren nicht besonders gut, aber im Allgemeinen eine sehr schöne Kreuzfahrt.
