Marella Dream Review

Additional details
This was our first cruise, suggested as a celebration holiday by the Thomson travel agents.
With the premium seat upgrade, the flight out was good. Having our baggage transferred from the plane straight to the ship was very welcome and saved much hassle.
The taxi was waiting just a few metres from the plane and whisked us away to the ship. Unfortunately the taxi was not the 'adapted' taxi that the Thomson Welfare team had justified the very high cost with! ($45 for a $23 dollar trip)
Cabin Review
We had gone for the bigger outside plus cabin, which was fine. Plenty of room, double bed and three seater sofa. Tip for showers, unhook the end of the shower curtain at the opposite end to the shower and leave a foot or so gap. This reduces the amount of curtain that tries to wrap itself around you! The shower has plenty of power and there was always plenty of hot water. The bed was comfortable.There were three available sockets, flat blade US style, TV plugged into one, kettle into another and one under the dressing table, don't forget your adapter!. You need to have the main room lights on in order for these to work.
