Cruise ship guide

Costa Serena

Serena combines a classical-mythology identity with a large spa and covered pool space, with dated itineraries more useful than assuming a permanent homeport.

Onboard highlights

The current official ship page lists Sushino, Solemio Spa. Those are useful starting points for comparing the onboard offer with the related ships below.

Accommodation and facilities

Inside rooms, sea-view accommodation, balconies and suites cover different budgets. Compare usable space and the beds for every member of your party. A balcony can add somewhere quiet to sit, but check obstructions, neighbouring public decks and the distance to the places you will use most.

Dining and evenings

Main restaurants and the buffet provide the base for meals, with a ship-specific choice of speciality venues. Compare restaurant supplements with your fare package before booking several extra dinners. Drinks packages and dining benefits are separate decisions, so price them against what your party will realistically use.

Choosing a route

Seasonal itineraries; use the official ship page for dated sailings. Use the official booking page to compare dated departures, port times and sea days before arranging flights. A ship can change regions between seasons, so the name alone is not a reliable guide to its next homeport.

Who should consider it?

Consider Costa for a social, international cruise with entertainment and plenty of activity around the public decks. Expect a multilingual setting rather than a specifically British programme. Compare the cost of flights, transfers, drinks and gratuities with the cruise fare before deciding which sailing offers the better holiday.
