this cruise and the food was crap we were expecting a real christmas feast but it was a let down The cost of everything was in euro so that made it even more expensive you dont mind spending $5-$7 on a drink but when converted was double one place we didnt get of at as we were told we had to pay to go on to and this was not told to us before hand also we had money taken out for visa and we were not told about this either The water on board in our cabin was brown we had to buy water to bursh our teeth in we did meet wonderful people on board and yes they all complained about the ship somehow I think the ship should be sunk its that old it was Realy Realy a bad Christmas Cruise Oh the cabin staff the bar & waiter staff were realy good and one woman entertainer Allessandra she was fab we loved her She was the best person on the ship It was her that helped us through the rufugee cruise that Costa us alot The people we meet This has to have been the worst cruise I have ever been on TOO expensive All in Euro ship is old the food is yuck The Australian Hostess was Rude and Realy made Australians look Bad

value drinks packages which we would thoroughly recommend. Food was excellent some nights, mediocre on others, but no complaints overall with the meals. You could even get free cappucinos delivered to your cabin with breakfast. This was a great cruise for the cost, which we purchased as a package including flights from Melbourne.

Ice brought to our room for our Happy Hour - was no trouble at all. Towels changed twice a day. Water on board wasn't the cleanest. Crew said it was only coloured and 'quite safe'. We loved every moment… Read more

of the cruise (except when our wives were in the 'Duty Free Area' Cabin was bigger than we expected, food was great, waiting staff were fantastic (Thanks Milda & Zhoo) Stairs on the pool deck were slippery at times (When wet), Wife did too much shopping. Why overnight in Singapore?
