The Costa Romantica is one of the most comfortable and elegant ships in the Costa fleet.
The extensive makeover of the Costa Romatica that began in November 2011, and scheduled to be completed February 2012, includes creation of new shipboard areas and the introduction of services that represent a major evolution in the Costa product.
The renovation includes adding two half-deck extensions, 111 new standard cabins and 120 cabins and suites with private balconies.
Among new areas being added is a wine and cheese bar offering 100 vintner labels and a selection of cheeses from around the world, a coffee and chocolate bar, an Italian pizzeria, a cabaret lounge and a nightclub.
