So this was my first ever cruise and I went with my mother who hadn't had a proper holiday for a very long time. It was all quite exciting as there was a lot to pack in during our time.
The ship was very clean, the staff super friendly and they always say hello to you.
Our cabin in deck 4 was adequate with a nice window view of the sea. The beds were comfortable. We did have a problem with ...
Have to chuckle when you read other reviews, I don't know what people expect. Voyager is an older ship but fine, not in the RCL league but had no complaints. Deck 9 extra large balcony, very clean cabin, turn downs in the evening and tidy up during the morning was good. Always looked forward to the towel folding. Stewards Efendi, Faud & Rahul, top team, always greated with a smile and by our ...
The overall rating of the cruise may sound harsh for the sub ratings but hear me out.
Overall ship:
As others have pointed out, the Marella Voyager has been refurbished but it’s not a new ship. You can see old wood decor and wood ikea-type furnishing in the cabins. The facilities and plumbing appeared to be older but we never had any issues with this.
I don’t know whether it is due to the ...
I booked this cruise with TUI after having had several great family cruises before! However what a disappointment this one was!!!.
Took my best friend for her first cruise to impress her and I wad left embarrassed. Standards have dropped. Though thankfully Staff are still amazing and the entertainment was exceptional. However, the standards of the ship was a big let down. Though more ...
We chose to take our first cruise with Marella after having it recommended by my sister and we were not disappointed!
We chose the Ionian trip, for seven days . We sailed on the Explorer which was a beautiful ship aimed at giving its passengers the best experience ! the staff are amazing people, multi national and always smiling! The restaurants were all well organised, Latitude 53 have the ...
We have just been on the Three Seas Cruise. We were very worried as 4yrs ago we went on the Baltic cruise on Explorer and although the cruise was ok everything else Shows Music were awful and we said we would never cruise with then again. Mark you we have been cruising with them for 10years and the Dream was our favourite. Anyway this cruise was amazing not only the destinations but the Shows were ...
It was evident that a substantial amount of money was spent on refurbishing the ship, but elements remained outdated.
The itinerary of our second week was changed twice due to “construction work” and “water shortage”. This then resulted in an overnight stay in Barcelona in port.
Whilst we admired the concept of the Kitchens, we found the food cold, repetitive, and restrictive over the two ...
This was my 5th marella cruise in 15 month and was terrible compared to the rest of the fleet.FOOD WAS DISGUSTING.
The fried eggs where burned on the bottom and around the white, but the rest of the white was still uncooked and snotery. In the kitchens it is the same food every lunch time The beef and chicken served in the all inclusive restuarants was tough and dry. Sevice in the bars was so ...
We have done three previous Tui Marella cruises, all to the Canary Islands, as we have birthdays in Feb/March and this is a nice spot after a Highland winter. This year, after several family deaths, we decided to treat ourselves to a summer cruise to the Med on Explorer 2. Unfortunately, this was probably a bad choice. We found the food as good, if not better than usual, also the staff were ...
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.
Restaurant staff were exceptional expecially in both Gallery 47 table area 11 & Gallery 47 tables 103..Gede Mark Trudi Omar & their respective teams..Staff in all bars, restaurants, entertainment, ...
