Marella Discovery is the sister ship to Marella Discovery 2, so you can expect nearly all of the same facilities, such as a fantastic dining scene and a show lounge to rival the West End. Top highlights include seven bars and seven restaurants, plus an outdoor cinema and a five-storey atrium. Families are well catered for on this ship. Family Suites and Family Junior Suites are kitted out with a chalkboard and a PlayStation 4, plus there’s a rock climbing wall, a minigolf course and two pools onboard, one of which is indoors.

DINING OPTIONS
There are seven dining spots to choose from, including a main restaurant spread over two storeys, and two speciality restaurants – which showcase spectacular views from a setting on the top floor. For afternoon tea and after-dinner cocktails, meanwhile, you’ll have seven bars and lounges to dip in and out of.
ENTERTAINMENT VENUES
You can watch movies under a star-lit sky at the ship’s outdoor cinema. Indoors, there are nightly shows in our Broadway Show Lounge, and pianists and acoustic musicians take to the stage in the atrium – an elegant space that changes colour when the sun goes down. The plush casino, meanwhile, is the place to head for a late-night flutter.
SHIP FACILITIES
The ship’s open-air pool comes with the bonus of built-in hot tubs. You’ll find a second pool indoors, plus a slew of treatment cabins at the Oceans Gym and Spa. If you want to up the pace, head out to the rock climbing wall – a Marella Cruises first – or practice your putt on the minigolf green.
Atrium
The heart of the ship is taken over by a spectacular five-storey atrium. Think panoramic windows, mood lighting, and Willy Wonka-esque glass lifts. Low-key entertainment is held here, with an agenda that includes cabaret performances and cocktails with the captain.
The Wall
Brave the heights of the rock-climbing wall, and get a bird’s-eye view of the ship and the ocean.
Oceans Spa and Beauty Salon
If you fancy getting glammed up for the weekly Dress to Impress night, pop in to the salon for a manicure or hair up-do. Alternatively, spoil yourself in the spa – it’s got a string of treatment cabins where you can indulge in a full-body massage or a rejuvenating facial. Just so you know, all treatments are chargeable.
Broadway Show Lounge
Plush seating and an 800-plus capacity give the ship’s main entertainment venue professional credentials. We have 11 unique shows, including West End to Broadway, an on-stage spectacular showcasing all your favourite musical theatre classics.
