Costa Concordia

Costa's flag ship, the Costa Concordia is a floating resort that itself is an additional destination on your cruise. This magnificent ship boasts a fitness area on two decks, covering a total of almost 2,000 m2, with a swimming pool at its center and four additional swimming pools, two with retractable glass roofs. Choose from 13 bars, including the Bar Sport. Over 500 cabins have balconies. The decks are spacious and panoramic. It is the largest and longest ship in the fleet.

Each of her thirteen decks combines the elegance of European style with American comforts. The Concordia offers guests a stunning array of facilities including 11 bars, a theater extending over three decks, a casino, disco, and ballroom. Discover hospitality at its best and savor the quality of Glatt Kosher gourmet cuisine served in elegant restaurants.

Treat yourself to a sauna, Turkish bath or shiatsu massage in the luxurious spa facilities. Reinvigorate yourself in the ultra-modern and well-appointed fitness center, stretch your legs on the track or tennis/basketball court, relax in one of the three swimming pools, or take part in one of the many fitness classes: aerobics, stretching, body-dancing, step, and more.
