Reasons To Book

VIP Treatment

So you've booked your cruise and you're counting down the days until you set off. In the meantime, Marella's got lots of ways to make your holiday even more special.

All their ships have balconies, so upgrade your cabin and you can take in the views from the privacy of your own balcony. Plus, choose any type of Suite on any of their ships, and a Deluxe Cabin on Marella Dream, and Premier Service comes as standard. Extras include priority check-in at the port with express luggage delivery, breakfast in bed once a week, and a free pressing service that means you'll look your best for the captain's cocktail night.

Whether you're celebrating during your time onboard, or just fancy treating yourself to something a bit special, there are lots ways they can make your time away even more memorable. They can arrange a bouquet of flowers to be delivered to your cabin, chocolate-dipped strawberries, or a bottle of bubbly. If you're sailing for a special occasion then take a look at our Celebrate in Style package.

Relaxing Cruises

Everyone likes a bit of adventure but a holiday is all about taking it easy, too. So kick back, relax and do as little as possible.

Jeep safaris. Volcanic adventures. Tree-top tours. The places they go to offer up plenty in the way of excitement. But when you're on holiday you want time to chill out, too. And their ships let you do exactly that. It's just like staying in a hotel, only this one works its way around the world while you're busy enjoying yourself.

Devote your day to lazing by the pool, listening to music and sipping cocktails. Find a quiet spot in one of the lounges, where you can read with no interruptions. Or hit the spa for a massage, manicure or facial. It's the perfect way to recharge your batteries before diving headlong into your next port...

Cruise Dining

Help yourself to something from the buffet or head to the restaurant and let our waiters take your order. On all their ships, there's a dining scene to suit you.

Eating out – it's one of the best things about a holiday. And on a cruise there are so many choices. You can stick with home favourites like roast beef or fish and chips, or try a dish from the destination you're in, like Greek moussaka or a Moroccan tagine. And you're not confined to set meal times either – you can grab a pre-lunch slice of pizza out on deck or take afternoon tea in the lounge.

All their ships have a choice of buffet and waiter-service restaurants. Each one comes with an à la carte, too, offering contemporary cuisine in an intimate setting.

Members Club

Marella Cruises like to offer their customers an individual and personalised service, which is why they don't have a standardised loyalty club. Instead, they prefer to provide thoughtful gestures to our returning customers who book with them as a 'little thank you' for travelling with them again.

They also put their most loyal customers on an email mailing list so they hear about the new itineraries before they go on general sale, plus exclusive discounts and offers.
