Margaritaville at Sea Islander

Margaritaville at Sea Islander was built at the Kvaerner Masa yard in Helsinki as Costa Atlantica and entered service in July 2000, the first Spirit-class ship to sail for Costa. She left Costa in 2019 for a planned Chinese brand that never operated her, and Margaritaville at Sea bought her in 2023. After a refit at Harland & Wolff in Belfast she was named by Savannah Buffett in June 2024 and took her first cruise from Tampa on 14 June 2024. At 85,861 GT and about 2,200 guests she has 12 passenger decks, and most cabins have a balcony. Her pool deck has the only three-storey LandShark Bar at sea, the adults-only Tiki Pool and the Caribbean Amphibian splash pool and slide, plus mini golf and pickleball. Fins Dining, the Port of Indecision Buffet, Mexican Cutie Cantina, Cheeseburger in Paradise and Frank & Lola's Pizzeria are included, while JWB Prime Steakhouse, Far Side Sushi and the adults-only Island Eats and Tiki Grill cost extra. She sails four to ten nights year-round from Port Tampa Bay to Key West, Mexico, Belize, Roatán, Jamaica and Grand Cayman.
