Only Cruised Carnival Will I enjoy Costa?

[dalibi]

We have been on eight Carnival cruises (6 w. children) and love them.

Considering something different; need advice from someone who been on both.

Thank You. How does the food compare? My boys love the 24 hour Icecream and Pizza on Carnival.

Carnival food is 100% better than Costa.

 

Camp Carnival better than Costa camp.

 

Carnival shows are better than Costa.

 

Carnival has poolside music, Costa does not.

 

Costa also had 24 Pizza and other foods.

 

Can't beat Costa's childrens fare.

To be honest, unless you like serenity do not take Costa. I myself love the relaxation of a vacatoin, where others like the "Par-Tay" feel of Carnival. I think the food is 100% better on Costa. It is a matter of opinion and the only way you will find out if you like it is to take a costa cruise for yourself. That is what we did.

Soory, but if you want serenity DON'T go Costa. Because of the price for children there are loads of them. The most I have ever seen and we cruise only during school breaks.

well i have only cruised on Carnival to..but Costa is owned by Carnival.

Holland America, Princess, Cunard, Windstar, and The Yachts of Sebourn are also owned by Carnival, but I would NEVER compare any of them to Carnival.

[cruisekimmy]

Sailed Costa Victoria several years ago. Wonderful ship. Very good crew.

Food.....ah.. so so. Equal to Denny's or Sizzler. Entertainment Very good.
