7 Night Cruise sailing from Guadeloupe roundtrip aboard Costa Luminosa.

A new star has appeared in the Costa firmament: Costa Luminosa, a ship dazzling with light. Elegant, sophisticated and fitted out with the most precious materials, Costa Luminosa is a real jewel. Wonder at its mother-of-pearl, ebony, noble hardwood and mosaic fittings. More cabins with private balconies, new sports facilities such as a roller-skating rink and golf simulator, and innovative entertainment areas, but that is not all: experience the exclusive Samsara Spa and the sliding glass roof that enables you to enjoy life on deck in the evenings.

Highlights of this cruise:

Guadeloupe
Guadeloupe looks like a butterfly: its wings, Grande Terre and Basse Terre, are separated by a channel and has some beautiful, unspoilt beaches. Grande Terre is the liveliest part, with the market of Pointe à Pitre and roads joining together picturesque villages and sugar cane plantations. Centuries of French rule don't seem to have influenced the locals' philosophy too much: "it's better to avoid something than to face something".

St Maarten
St. Maarten is a harmonious ethnic melting pot, where the joy of life and respect for guests are valued qualities: the secret of all this happiness might come from the beauty of the island and the pleasant all-year round climate.

La Romana
La Romana lies on the beautiful east coast of the island, and it has always been a centre for leisure and entertainment. Its long white sandy beaches, on a turquoise sea, are among the most spectacular of the whole American continent.

Tortola
Road Harbour is the dynamic port of Road Town, the capital of Tortola, where the majority of British Virgin Islanders live. The city is well equipped for water sports and excursions.

Antigua
Known as the "gateway" to the Caribbean, Antigua is the Caribbean island with the most history. The Museum of Antigua and Barbuda has craftwork and artefacts made by natives and fossils dating back 35 million years.
