Overall, a very beautiful ship, with wonderful cabins and plenty of lovely areas where you can enjoy a drink. Unfortunately, the swimming pools are too small for 6,000 passengers. The same goes for the Colosseo theatre, where many seats are located behind large columns, resulting in little or no view of the shows. It’s a real shame because the performances are of a very high standard, and it would be nice if everyone could enjoy them without having to arrive an hour early just to save a seat.

The ship is beautiful and very quiet, although it is not always well managed, especially when it comes to retail activities. On the last day of the cruise, we were unable to buy a discounted T-shirt because the person in charge could not be found.

Excellent staff and food, very beautiful ship, but the Colosseo Theatre is awful; it lacks the classic spectacular entrance that characterizes cruise ships.

Beautiful ship, the only drawback is the two theaters.

Everything was fine, except that the temperatures in the common areas were a bit too low.

Costa Smeralda is beautiful and impeccably clean, but too spread out.
