The CostaTropicale is the perfect complement to Costa's fleet. At 671 feet in length and 36,700 tons, she carries 1,022 guests in true Italian Style. Onboard guests can enjoy three swimming pools, dancing in the Miami Ballroom, Las Vegas style reviews in the Tropicana Show Room or try their luck in the Habana Casino.
There's also a full fitness center and spa, an Internet Café and Club Bahia, a specialty restaurant overseen by one of Brazil's best known chefs. The CostaTropicale enters service in Europe on June 30, 2001 after a $25 million refurbishment.
