Just got back from a terrible week abroad this ship . We went in a group of seven ranging from 2yrs to 60 to celebrate my husband’s 60 birthday .
This was spoiled by all seven of us suffering from severer illness.
This was due to the poor food quality and preparation.
Staff lacked etiquette and serving training ( one staff member stabbed a roll with a fork to serve after trying to sever ...
We have been fortunate enough to have been on a range of holidays with various tour operators and different cruise lines. Our most recent being Cunard Line. A far cry from Marella, on pen and paper anyway.
We wanted to try something new and after watching lots of reviews and videos online, we decided to give them a try and when a good deal popped up, we booked. We chose an itinerary that we ...
We choose this cruise for the destinations, we did two weeks back to back Tropical Shores & Cocktail & Coconuts. The destinations didn’t disappoint and Dominica was the highlight.
However the onboard experience was the worst we have ever had. If you don’t mind bad food and like to drink a lot you will probably love it. It felt like Wetherspoons at Sea but that would be doing Wetherspoons ...
Just returned from two weeks on the Morella Voyager around the Caribbean.
25/2/2024 – 10/3/2024
Having read many good and bad reviews! This is my personal opinion. I hope it helps those trying to decide whether to give Morella a try or may answer some of the questions you may have before traveling.
1. Drinks and bars
Good selection of drinks in the all-inclusive package, ...
The good stuff
1) Service staff were all fantastic, enthusiastic and willing to help ( with exception of 1, the read head in destination services)
2) Cabin was spacious and clean.
The not so good stuff
1) The quality of the food. As a vegitarian I found the choice limited and the quality of what was offered was not very good.
2) The smoking area on deck 12 right next to the jogging ...
Choose this cruis for Caribbean after 8 other tui cruises. Intinary great, ship average. Cabins kept spotless, free restaurants poor quality and service when busy. Paid restaurants such as silver fork very good. Compared to other marella ships restaurant management poor. Allowed to get to full before asking people to wait. Entertainment was not the best, shows has poor singers although dancers ...
The low score is a result of poor customer service. This cruise was for a special birthday and as such we researched available cabins very carefully, not being prepared to book unless a suitable cabin was available. We booked and secured a cabin and were looking forward to our cruise. On arrival the cabin key did not fit our prebooked cabin, it had been changed from mid ship, port side, to ...
Family cruise for half term. Entertainment was very poor. Barely any entertainment during sail away, the entertainment on board was rubbish. The food in Latitude was terrible and the wine utterly undrinkable in every bar. The food was basic throughout the ship. Except the pizzas at Nonna’s were nice.
My 6 year old grandson got told to leave a room where they had an air hockey table because ...
We travelled with Marella same embarkcation in 2022. Rebooted on the positive journey last year.
The ships hygiene is poor. They don't wipe down tables after use in the Island restaurant (indoor or out) when we spoke to someone they tried to justify the lack of care due to a Customs Inspection on the day. However, whilst they removed dishes quickly, they didn't wipe at all, the entire 7 days ...
Itinerary was fine except for the fiasco of US border checks ,officers came onto the ship to check every esta and fingerprint every holidaymaker. This took all day 100 People called every half hour or so to line up and be seen .Some people waited around until 6in the evening and the ship left port at 8 so they had a couple of hours ashore in a port that was closed and dark. There were fights in ...
