Archipelago
Archipelago turns dinner into a full sensory production, where lighting, sound and space shift with each course. You will dine among a sea inspired setting shaped with recovered wood from beach cleaning activity, so the surroundings have as much to say as the plate.
The Sea & Land tasting menu brings together 12 courses from Bruno Barbieri, Hélène Darroze and Ángel León, with the experience lasting around two hours. It is on Deck 8, forward, and drinks packages do not apply here.
Food LAB
Swap the usual dinner table for a hands on seaside cooking school on Deck 8. You can learn sushi chef techniques or try creating the perfect aperitif for friends, then enjoy what you have made.
With space for 50 participants, Food LAB is for anyone who prefers their holiday activities with a little more flavour.
Teppanyaki Restaurant
Teppanyaki turns dinner into the evening's entertainment. Take your seat on Deck 8 and watch Japanese chefs work the grill, with quick hands, cooking theatre and the odd joke thrown in for good measure.
Choose from Vegetarian, Classic or Deluxe menus, then settle in with an Italian wine from the standard selection. With just 54 seats, this is one worth checking the onboard Logbook for opening times.
Squok Restaurant
Travelling with children aged 3 to 6? Squok Restaurant is their informal, family-focused buffet, serving breakfast, lunch and dinner on Deck 16.
You will find simple crowd-pleasers such as spaghetti with tomato sauce and chicken burgers. It sits beside the Squok Club and Baby Squok facilities, so mealtimes need not involve a ship-wide expedition.
Sushino at Costa
You can settle in for a Japanese-style meal of nigiri, maki and sashimi, made by the sushi chef using traditional recipes. It is a proper sushi bistro, rather than another trip around the buffet.
Find it on Deck 7 beside Campari Bar in the Colosseum area, or take your sushi away when lounging calls. There is also a Sushino Lounge experience with aperitifs and Campari cocktails.
Pummid'Oro Pizzeria
On Deck 8, Pummid'Oro Pizzeria turns dinner into a proper Italian performance, with pizzaiolo acrobatics, music and a bit of laughter alongside traditional and gourmet pizzas. It is pizza night, but with more theatre than your average local takeaway.
Try the Guanciale e Stracciatella, topped with pork jowl, basil oil, Stracciatella cheese, orange zest and tomato powder. A gluten-reduced crust is available, though it may not suit guests with gluten allergies or intolerances.
Ferrari Spazio Bollicine
Ferrari Spazio Bollicine
Raise a glass of Ferrari Trentodoc at this polished Deck 8 bar in Piazza dei Miracoli. It is made for an aperitif, a toast at sea, or an after-dinner drink when the evening is still feeling promising.
Come hungry as well as thirsty. Appetisers and dishes created by the Ferrari chef are on the menu, including marble eggs with truffle pearls by Michelin-starred chef Edoardo Fumagalli.
Aperol Spritz Bar
Aperol Spritz Bar
Orange is doing rather a lot of heavy lifting here, and it works. This informal Italian aperitif bar serves Aperol Spritz and other aperitif-style drinks, with an outdoor poolside spot on Deck 17 looking out to sea.
There is also a location by the indoor La Spiaggia Beach Club on Deck 16. The Deck 17 bar is open in the afternoons and gets popular before dinner, so claim your sea-view seat early.
Campari Bar
Campari Bar
Aperitif hour gets a properly Italian turn at this bold, fire engine red bar on Deck 7. Order a Campari Negroni, a classic spritz or a creative cocktail, then settle in beside the Colosseo atrium.
With a three storey glass wall spanning Decks 6 to 8, you can sip while the nearby visual and musical entertainment gets underway. Very civilised, even before dinner.
Nutella at Costa
Nutella at Costa
Nutella at Costa is a dedicated sweet stop beside the pools on Deck 17, Montecatini Terme. It is made for a casual treat between swims, sun loungers and whatever your afternoon has in store.
You can choose from Nutella creations including crepes, waffles, yoghurt and pancakes. Go on, have the crepe. Pool days have rules, and this is a very good one.
Colosseo
Colosseo
Colosseo is the ship’s lively, three deck high entertainment hub, stretching across Decks 6, 7 and 8. Settle into the tiered seating beneath the glass dome and watch the walls come alive with LED screens.
You can catch vocal performances, dance productions and guest headliners here, often in punchy 20 to 30 minute segments that can carry on past midnight. By day, you may even spot public rehearsals for the evening programme.
Piazza del Campo
Piazza del Campo
Take a seat in this aft, multi-level outdoor arena, where a grand staircase and stadium-style seating look out over the ship’s wake. The lower level sits at the stern of Deck 16, with more of the space above on Deck 18.
Come here for games, parties and entertainment, or simply catch the view from the glass-floor walkway. There is also a large movie screen, so it is worth checking the daily programme before you settle in.
Squok Club
Squok Club
Squok Club on Deck 16 is where your children aged 3 to 11 can get stuck into supervised games, arts and crafts, treasure hunts and more, while you make the most of your own time aboard.
Mini is for ages 3 to 5 who no longer need nappies, while Maxi suits ages 6 to 11. If you are heading ashore on a Costa excursion, tell the club 24 hours ahead and arrive 15 minutes before departure.
Splash Aqua Park
Splash Aqua Park
Ready to make a splash? Head up to Deck 17, where Splash Aqua Park brings speedy bends, fast descents and three water slides to your sea day.
It is family-friendly, suitably splashy and ideal when lounging by the pool feels a touch too horizontal. Do keep an eye on the weather, as the slides operate weather permitting.
Versilia Beach
Versilia Beach
Versilia Beach is your outdoor pool and sundeck on Deck 18, made for a proper swim, a stretch in the sun, or both in whichever order feels most productive.
There is a swimming lane if you fancy earning your lounger time, plus disabled access to the pool. Versilia Bar and Green-Healthy Food at Costa are nearby when lounging develops an appetite.
My Moments
My Moments
The holiday may fly by, but your favourite moments need not. On Deck 6, My Moments Photo Store lets you browse photographs taken on board in an interactive format.
Choose printed or digital photos, then add a magnet, an original gadget or another cruise souvenir to take a little piece of Costa Toscana home with you.
Beauty Salon Solemio
Beauty Salon Solemio
A sea day is an excellent excuse to give your usual routine a polish. Beauty Salon Solemio, part of the Solemio spa towards the aft of Deck 16, offers hairdressing, barbering and beauty treatments when you fancy looking as put together as your dinner plans.
Choose from facial masks, hair removal and manicures, or leave the hair to the professionals. It is your holiday, after all, so you can pack less styling kit and more room for the important things.
Beauty Spa Solemio
Beauty Spa Solemio
Beauty Spa Solemio is your grown-up corner of calm on Deck 16 aft, with sea views that do rather improve the art of switching off. You can choose from a sauna, hammam, thalassotherapy pool, snow room, massages and wellness rituals.
There is also a beauty salon for hair styling, barbering, and facial and body treatments. Access is for guests aged 18 and over. If you are using selected Costa Club treatment benefits, book with the onboard spa within your first two days.
Galleria Shops
Galleria Shops
A little browse can be a very sensible sea day activity. Galleria Shops brings together designer watches, handbags and high-end goods, plus Costa logo clothing and ship-specific souvenirs.
You will find the main assortment on Deck 8, with further shopping on Deck 7. Pick up a memento for someone at home, or make the case that you are someone worth treating too.
