- Baby Club / Servizio Tata — A baby club for children aged 1-3. Basic hours are free, while extended and private childcare by dedicated nannies (with a nap room) is charged by the hour.

### Adults-only areas

- Private 19 Solarium — An adults-only sun deck forward on Deck 19, with a pool and jacuzzi, also designated as a smoking area.
- Casino Laguna — A casino with slot machines and table games.

### Practical information (line-wide)

| Item | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Onboard currency | EUR |
| Gratuities | The service charge (gratuity) is not included in the fare. Instead, a fixed amount per night is automatically added to the onboard account after boarding. It applies uniformly to all ships and all guests regardless of fare type (Basic/Comfort-type/Deluxe), and guests are not expected to reduce or remove it at their discretion. |
| Payment | Cashless onboard |
| Voltage | Mainly 220V (depending on the ship, some are a mix supporting 110-220V/60Hz). Japanese devices that are 100V-only may not be usable without a transformer, so please check. |
| Formal nights | The number of gala nights roughly scales with cruise length: about 1 on a 3 to 4 night cruise, 2 on a 7-night cruise and 3 on a 10-night cruise. On Mediterranean cruises, 1 to 2 is typical. |
| Medical facilities | There is a medical center staffed by doctors and nurses, available 24 hours for emergencies. Consultations and treatment are not free and are charged to your onboard account each time (travel insurance generally cannot be used directly at the counter, and costs are usually claimed afterward). An exact Costa-specific fee schedule could not be confirmed from public information. |
| Bringing items onboard | Bringing alcohol on board is prohibited in principle, whether at embarkation or at ports of call, and anything found in X-ray screening is confiscated until the end of the cruise. Wine and champagne may be allowed only if approved by prior application, in which case a corkage fee of €10 per bottle is charged. Alcohol purchased at ports of call or in the onboard duty-free shops is also held until the end of the cruise (effectively confiscated). |
| Mobile and connectivity | The EU "free roaming" rule applies only on land, such as at ports of call. If your phone connects to the ship's maritime network at sea, expensive maritime roaming charges outside the scope of the regulation (both calls and data are far higher than usual) apply, so the practical standard approach at sea is to put your phone offline or in airplane mode and use Costa's onboard Wi-Fi package or an eSIM. |

## Boarding, atmosphere, and links

Checked: 2026-07-03

### Boarding and logistics

- Japan departures: No
- Home ports: Barcelona (Spain), Marseille (France), Civitavecchia (Italy, near Rome), Savona (Italy), Genoa (Italy, port of registry)
- Departure ports: Barcelona, Marseille, Civitavecchia, Savona, Genoa, Naples (Southern Italy), Cagliari (Sardinia, Southern Italy), Palermo (Sicily, new itinerary port of call starting May 2026), La Goulette (Tunisia, new itinerary port of call starting May 2026)

### Atmosphere and guests

- All ages
- A lively, cheerful Italian atmosphere typical of a large Mediterranean flagship. Nighttime entertainment, including shows in the Colosseum and themed parties, is a highlight, with something for families and couples alike. After dry-dock renovations in Marseille in February-March 2026, planned winter deployments to the Middle East (UAE, Qatar, and Oman) were canceled over security concerns, and the ship shifted to Mediterranean round trips.
- Mainly attracts families and couples from southern Europe, including Italy, France, and Spain. It is sometimes sold through package tours operated by Japanese travel agencies such as HIS and Hankyu Travel, but onboard it generally follows a European format without Japanese-language services or Japanese cuisine.

Equipped with dual-fuel engines fueled by LNG (liquefied natural gas), it is designed to cut sulfur oxides to almost zero compared with conventional heavy fuel oil and to substantially reduce particulate matter, nitrogen oxides, and CO2 emissions. Together with sister ship Costa Smeralda, it is positioned as an environmentally friendly flagship of the Excellence class.
