Costa Mediterranea

As one passenger put it, if earlier Costa ships were Armani (clean, cool, and serene), then this one is Versace (glittering, sexy, and slightly outrageous).


The basic layout of this contemporary ship is nearly identical to parent Carnival Cruise Line's Spirit-class vessels. Interiors were designed by Carnival's ship architect Joe Farcus, whose abundant use of marble reflects Costa's Italian heritage. Artwork commissioned specifically for each ship was created by contemporary artists and includes intricate sculptures in silver and glass. Don't overlook the lighting fixtures, which were created especially for the ship, most of them crafted by the artisans in Venice's Murano glass factories.

Tucked away far forward is a stunning chapel with an altar, wood pews, stained-glass panels, and religious icons. Unlike other ships' generic wedding chapels, this is a tiny house of worship afloat.
