A healthy move at Costa cruises?
Costa Cruises says it introduced the spa cabin concept to the industry. Now, the company is planning a new health program that will be carefully watched by other cruise lines.
Costa is starting a new “Ischia” wellness program aboard the Costa Mediterranea, which will undergo renovations in April.
Guests who book one of the 44 upscale accommodations will have a personalized wellness consultation, three complimentary treatments, two fitness or meditation classes and complimentary access to the Wellness Restaurant.
Spa cabins, available in ocean view, veranda and suite categories, will feature aromatherapy diffusers, special shower and air filters, and a mini bar stocked with healthy food and beverage selections,” says the cruise line.
In addition, guests with these accommodations will be offered priority spa reservation times.
Costa has some special enticements for travel agents booking groups. Agents can earn up to 17& commissions.
Costa was named “one of the top 10 cruise lines” by the readers of Conde Nast Traveler.
