Our ships are an important part of the "show" cruise with places both to relax and for meetings, offering all the services you could need for a successful trip.

Each ship has a casino, theatre, disco, shops, gym, outside swimming pools, sauna and jacuzzi tubs, cafe, buffet and restaurants. Each has its own different style, but offers the same Costa service.
Our newest ship, Costa Fortuna is the most fantastic and spectacular with characteristics that make her the greatest and innovative Italian ship. For example; 522 cabins with private balcony looking out to sea!

Daytime Onboard - Spend the Time However You Please

The beauty of the trip won't prevent you from appreciating the charm of life on board.
Everything is easy, everything is to hand, everything is ready… Want something to drink? The waiter is already there, as if reading your mind!

Swimming pools, jacuzzis, deck chairs and bath towels are all available.

Another bonus of a Costa cruise is that each Guest can choose how they wish to spend their holiday and even change their mind every day! Each of your Guests will feel perfectly at ease, being able to choose a way to relax that suits them best, without constraints and in total freedom.

Our animation team is at your service with different entertainment such as gym classes, dancing lessons, games or interesting classes such as cookery or languages … every Guest can choose to spend their time as they please. We offer fun but also privacy.

The Great Show of the Night!
As the sun goes down so the lights on board ship ignite and the evening entertainment begins. Nights on board a Costa ship are always happy, exciting, full of promise, expectations, and surprises! A special time every night. Choose from the casino, theatre, café, buffets, ballrooms, disco, shopping... all at your disposal - just a stones throw from your cabin.

Your Guests can begin with a trip to the casino for a go on the slot machines or game of roulette, then move on to a bar for music and dancing. A drink in good company and a stroll on deck, the disco from midnight awaits with its dance music.

The theatre has variety shows and musical spectaculars throughout the cruise.
And nights on board never end! There's the evening when the Captain entertains his Guests, another when the Chef introduces a spectacular midnight buffet of unimaginable proportions.
And it is also a ship, where nature gives a show, so step out on deck and look at the stars!

The Pleasure of Comfort
Open air, sun, sea. Our ships are the ideal environment to relax and get back in shape in few days after a long period of work. Our cruises go in search of sun, in the Mediterranean, North Europe, the Caribbean and South America. All it takes is to travel with us and you'll feel better immediately.
Have you ever had a walk or jog around deck first thing in the morning when the sun has just risen and the Captain is making the maneuvers to enter a new port - simply spellbinding!

But you don't have to be a romantic or an early-bird to take care of your own health on board, on board as we have new Fitness & Wellbeing® centers with Technogym System® equipment, software that allows you to create a personalized training program. Then have a refreshing sauna or take a Turkish bath.

Is the group in harmony? On some ships it is even possible to play to tennis or volleyball. And there is the beauty centre, which is particularly well-equipped for the care of face and body.

It is a Pleasure to Work Onboard!
On a cruise, even the work meetings becomes pleasant and relaxed. On a cruise, working in meetings becomes a pleasure through the unique atmosphere, the team work established between it's participants, in total relaxation and fun, ready to face new company challenges with the right spirit.

Everything is designed with the organizers in mind: the meeting rooms (from 20 to 1000 seats) are close to the cabins, they are multi-functional, all with modern equipment and include waiter service coffee break or multi-lingual assistance on request. Plus, on all of our ships there is a conference centre, lounges and theatre to welcome your company's event in perfect surroundings. Costa's ships are all decorated with the most stylish of Italian interior design and furniture which all goes towards enhancing the experience and making it even more memorable.

The Best of Italian Cuisine
The results of an Incentives trip is made up of so many things, big and small. Meal time is one of the most important times: it is essential to be in a pleasant environment, with the right company, to have a smiling and available waiter nearby, a good quality and wines to challenge connoisseurs!

On our cruises, all of this is possible: the restaurants on board have rich menus with appetizing choices, great variety and quality. Dishes of traditional Italian cuisine, recipes of international style and meals inspired by the places visited. Plus, vegetarian and low calorie menus (special dietary menus or specific demands must be mentioned at the time of booking). Not forgetting special occasions, the patisserie, the Gala Night dinner, the midnight buffet and the wine cellar on board is excellent!

Restaurants such as the exclusive Club Restaurants, the open air buffet, Pizzeria, Café and bar on all Costa ships are meeting places where it is possible to satisfy everyone's appetite.

The Cabins - A Place to Relax
Comfortable, pleasant, well furnished, functional, the cabins on our ships offer all the advantages and hospitality of a grand hotel: private services, air-conditioning, cable radio, telephone programmed for international calls, safe and minibar on some ships.

The TV has a vast choice of satellite programs in Italian and international languages, plus planned screenings of films in various languages. On the television, you can follow the route of the cruise, the ship's speed and follow in real- time the weather conditions, temperature, wind and humidity etc.

On a holiday it is important to have a proper place to relax, knowing you can count on first-class service. From breakfast in your cabin to the fast and accurate laundry service.

All cabins are equally elegant and stylish: but for those who want to offer something more, there are cabins with a private balcony overlooking the sea or some superb suites with exclusive luxuries such as a large bath and/or jacuzzi.

The Long Costa Summer
To go on a cruise which follows the summer is an extraordinary gift to your own guests. Autumn in the Mediterranean, for instance; it is a privilege to be able to escape from autumn weather and to enjoy life on board with sun, sea and the beauty of various ports of call. Or how about the anticipation of summer with a springtime cruise? A leisurely well-deserved break after the long period of winter work. Or the Caribbean in winter. Need we say more? It's a dream many wish to fulfill - sun, sand, blue skies, suntans, beautiful seas and so many destinations to be discovered!

And because there are so many cruise itineraries to choose from in the Mediterranean, North Europe, the Caribbean and South America - there are many places of great tourist and cultural importance to visit.

A Prize That Your Guests Will Remember Forever
When you give something it should only have one objective: to be sure to make someone happy and create a pleasant and lasting memory. And in terms of incentives and meetings this is worth so much more, when you have a concrete expectation of a good result in terms of your business image and an increase of business.

And you'll never forget your first cruise, nor the second or the one after… Every Costa cruise is always an unexpected, privileged, cheerful discovery and it's always an appropriate choice for your guests because they won't forget it and therefore probably won't forget your company either…
