Marella Discovery 2 Cruise Reviews

We chose this cruise as we had always wanted to see Gibraltar a d it's a place well worth a visit, however the cruise experience is pretty dire, we are regular cruisers and can honestly say this is the worst ever, we don't usually moan but this is a much needed warning. The ship is very old and tired with what seems to be a shortage of staff, every day we had to queue to get into breakfast, ...

Currently on board Discovery 2 this ship is very tired with threadbare carpet on the stairs showers with no water pressure, food is ok but nothing special ate in the Kora La yet again not brilliant but ok, we are regular cruisers with tui and all i can say is this is the worst ship in the fleet. We had a junior suite the balcony was disgusting rust and flaking paint, you no longer get clarins ...

Was getting a little worried seeing all the negative reviews but I was pleased with my return to the Discovery 2 and my first cruise since Covid and as a solo traveller. The staff, food and general ambience of the ship were very good. Being the first full week of September, very were very few children onboard which was a new experience. I had a deluxe balcony cabin on deck 7 which was very nice ...

With 30+ cruises under my belt as a travel writer I hope this will be helpful. Cruise companies around the world are cost cutting to retrieve cash lost during Covid, and this was blatently obvious on the latest adventure on Marella Discovery 2. Allegedly an "all inclusive" cruise, TUI levied daft charges for small bottles of water, charged for room service, relied on port authorities to provide ...

Friends recommended. From booking to end, it was a really good experience. Staff on board were amazing. Always a cheerful greeting & so helpful. The ship was very clean, every area spotless.

I’m aged 22 and went on a family holiday. This was the best holiday I have ever had!! I did not expect the cruise to have so much entertainment!! Every room had different things going on, it’s well suited for all ages!! The staff was wonderful the waiters and entertainment staff was amazing!! Cameron was especially lovely!! I can not doubt this holiday at all. Defo would go again!! The rooms ...

We booked this cruise, our first with Marella, some 10 months ago. Between times we sailed on Explorer round the Canaries in February, and based on that experience we wouldn’t have booked Marella again. Poor food in every outlet, lousy wine and why the Canary ports are popular is a mystery to us. Discovery 2 from Palma in August was visiting a wide range of cities and some smaller ports over a ...

This was my first cruise experience and I’m already thinking about the next one! There were a few different options for meal times including a buffet style area and multiple sit down waiter service options. Our favourite place to eat was 47 degrees. On our first night we sat at Mario’s station and were so impressed by the enthusiasm and joy he brought when taking our orders and bringing us our ...

We wanted a luxury cruise for our 25th anniversary What we got was the following Great transfers really smooth and helpful Amazing staff in all areas of the cruise who genuinely wanted to help and make it a special holiday Very average food across the board , same old food every day Lots of catering for English with Pies/Roasts, Hardly any fresh fruit Pool was so small ...

This was our first cruise with Marella. The ship was clean and we'll maintained, the waiting staff and cabin stewards work very hard and we had no issue with them. Food was poor quality and often overcooked, dry and tasteless. Choices were sometimes limited at breakfast, the only consistently good choice was the omelette station. Portions were small in the Gallery 47 and 47 restaurants, some ...
