Experience Magic on the Costa Favolosa
The Costa Favolosa is decorated in a dramatic style and furnishings with lofty, Gothic spaces. The grand atrium positively glows — not just with décor, but with light-hearted entertainment fun for the whole family. Speaking of which, the kids will love their own pool, and everyone loves splashing down the waterslide. At night, watch poolside films with the whole family.
If you love art, be prepared to be wowed. The Costa Favolosa sports over 400 original works of art and more than 6,000 prints. If you like to be entertained, the 4D Cinema is an amazing display of film, and a three-level theater hosts vibrant performances. Try your luck at the casino or dance the night away at the disco. Kids and teens will love feeling like a star in the Grand Prix Simulator.
Hungry? The Costa Favolosa offers five dining spots, including the Club Restaurant and the Samsara Restaurant. Mingle at your choice of 13 bars, including the swanky Cognac & Cigar Bar and the delicious Coffee & Chocolate Bar.
