MS Margaritaville Paradise (1991-built as "Costa Classica", last refurbished in 2022 April-May, renamed from "Grand Classica") is the first of two Classica-class former Costa cruise ships - together with Costa neoRomantica (1993-built/2021-scrapped). The ship's name was changed twice after extensive refits in 2014 (Costa neoClassica) and 2022 (Margaritaville Paradise). neoClassica was Costa's oldest liner. In 2023, the fleet was expanded with Margaritaville Islander (2000-built as Costa Atlantica).

On August 2, 2017, Costa Cruises announced that the neoClassica ship leaves the fleet in 2018. The ship's last Costa cruise itinerary is scheduled for March 4, 2018. The decision was made following the 4 newbuilds with scheduled deliveries in 2019-2022. Renamed to "Grand Classica", in 2018 Costa neoClassica joined the fleet of the Florida-based company Bahamas Paradise Cruise Line, which current fleet also includes Grand Celebration.

Grand Classica/Margaritaville Paradise cruise ship deck plan shows a total of 656 staterooms for 1308 passengers (max capacity is 1680) served by 620 crew-staff. The boat has 13 decks (10 passenger-accessible, 5 with cabins), 8 dining options (7 restaurants and food bars, plus room service), 9 lounges and bars, 2 swimming pools (none with a retractable roof), 4 Jacuzzis (outdoor whirlpool hot tubs), 8 elevators. The ship has no self-service laundromats (passenger-use laundry facilities).

Grand Classica decks were all named after famous Italian Riviera cities. Following the ship's acquisition, Bahamas Paradise Cruise Line renamed all decks after Bahamian islands.

There are numerous artworks of great value on display at various places throughout the ship. The list includes works by Emilio Tadini (mosaic walls in the theatre) and Luciano Vistosi (displayed in the Atrium).

Grand Classica entered wetdock in Freeport Bahamas (at Grand Bahama Shipyard) in March 2020, Margaritaville Paradise - in May 2022.
