Production
The film was produced by San Fu Maltha, Johan Nijenhuis and Solo Films, co-owned by Joop van den Ende, co-founder of Endemol. It was a co-production with Dutch broadcaster, BNN. It was one of the first Dutch romantic comedy films aimed at 12 to 20 year-olds. The producers asked people to help them choose the cast via a website, and it became the largest group of well-known Dutch stars in a Dutch film. Both the film and the later TV show were located in Salou in Spain with filming also in nightclubs in Holland and Belgium.
Release
In addition to the film, a top-selling book and CD, "Costa! Latin & Danceparty" accompanied the release.
