Marella Explorer 2 Cruise Reviews

Arrived at the port in Barbados for two weeks on board The Explorer 2, very efficient check in and placed in cabin 91XX (with balcony). We thought the room and bathroom were somewhat tired, the bathroom was very small. Plenty of storage throughout. Overall the cabin was extremely clean. We had to ask for a bed topper as the mattress was very uncomfortable, topper unavailable but we were ...

wanted to see as many Caibbean Islands in one holiday, to be docking at a different place every morning was fabulous !! loved the Lattitude restaurant! as a vegetarian or Vegan ,the food is lovely !! Guest performers were great , in House Entertainment was Okkk . getting on and off ship was alot easier than I was expecting !! ship was big but was easy to get round to ...

Two of the party had cruised with Morella Cruises a few times previously. We went with the recommendation and must say I was at first disappointed with the size of the ship as has always cruised on much larger ships, however realised this ship did give us all what we needed. The journey from the airport, to the coach, then onto he ship was faultless. We left our cases at the airport and the next ...

Party: 2 adults from England, aged 29 and 63, previously cruised with Marella on the Dream, with NCL 4 times, and 3 other cruises in the early 00s on now defunct lines. We don't have any disabilities and we didn't use the casino, so we can't comment on these aspects, and this was an adults only ship. Summary: - Faultless service from absolutely everybody - Food surprisingly good ...

This review is an honest account of our recent experience on Marella Explorer 2. Completed 10+ cruises to date this being our fourth with Marella and first on Explorer 2. Outbound flight delayed Luggage arrived badly damaged Had to be moved from cabin 8214 (balcony) due to loud noise / vibration from the engine, it was obvious that they were aware of this problem as talking to other ...

We chose this cruise because of the itinerary: visiting 10 Caribbean islands in 2 weeks with very few sea days. We are not interested in the cruise 'experience'. For us the ship was a place to sleep and eat between visits. In addition we wanted a smaller ship and, very important, adults only. We had no illusions that this would be a luxury cruise but we were very happy with what we experienced ...

ARRIVAL & EMBARKATION Smooth & efficient..luggage takes care of from Airport to Cabin 9/10 Cabin acceptable..rather basic, but plenty of drawer space Sink in bathroom was cracked. Fixtures & fittings showing signs of wear 7/10 FOOD & DRINK LA VISTA (Italian restaurant) DINNER 3/10 Starters Caprese Salad….small portion…but ok Pate – a small tasteless ...

A third cruise with Marella, but probably our last. We enjoyed all of the ports of call, Split, Trieste, Ancona, San Marino and Zadar. Usual procedure to board the ship, probably slightly longer due to covid and brexit but once on board were greeted by friendly ,helpful crew. Cabin, outside on deck 9 was beautifully clean and the crew who serviced it twice a day were friendly, cheerful and a ...

We are criusers and mid sixties, and since covid we cruised twice with explorer 2 and once with discovery but this last one was quite poor. Bread was stale on the great musical afternoon tea, at breakfast and basically all round. The tapas gave us a dippy tummy, the Drinks were seriously watered down and cocktails tasted nothing like the real thing Not worthed paying for the ...

We have been on all of the Marella ships at least once, however this was our first post Covid cruise. We did expect to see changes, and I have taken that into account when considering what to write. We are non drinkers, but do enjoy the food and entertainment that the ships usually offer. Going out was straightforward as usual, however it takes longer at Dubrovnik due to having to go through ...
