Costa Allegra, the smallest of the Costa fleet, built in 1992 and refurbished in 2006 is only 616 feet (188 meters) long and 84 feet (25,7 meters) long and primarily targets Chinese travelers.

The ship's eight decks are named after famous impressionist painters such as Gauguin, Lautrec, Modigliani, and Degas, while the Costa's main goal - to attract Chinese travelers resulted refurbishment and adaptation in Chinese style, while cuisine and entertainment are largely following Chinese tastes. However, despite that Costa Allegra provides relatively comfortable cruise also to her Western passengers although it is important to mention that the ship does not offer such luxury like do other ships of the Costa fleet.
