The cruise line seperates the different categories (Inside, Oceanview, Balcony) into subcategories. The only difference in the subcategories is usually location on the ship. The detail above shows subcategory color, category name, and subcategory name. For detailed information, mouse over a cabin on the deck plans and a pop up window will appear. You will find diagrams, pictures and information about that cabin category including square footage and features.

Costa has a simplified way of category codes. Most categories are a letter followed by a C for classic level or P for premium level. Premium is obviously preferred over classic. Inside cabins begin with the letter I. Oceanview cabins begin with the letter E. Balcony cabins begin with the letter B. The Suite categories have a letter defining them. MS is a mini-suite. S are suites. PS is a panorama suite and GS is a grand suite.
