Marella Discovery

Family favourite Marella Discovery, with its dazzling atrium, is a treat for all ages. This magnificent ship was crafted with couples and families in mind from the accommodation to the restaurants and range of facilities and activities you'll find onboard.

Please note: from summer 2026, Marella Discovery will operate adults-only cruises.

Get active on the rock-climbing wall, try a round of mini-golf, hit the gym or swing between the indoor and outdoor swimming pools. There's also an escape room-style of challenge, innovative outdoor evening cinema, kids' clubs for all ages and a schedule of 11 different live performances to choose from. Then there's The Veranda, a peaceful adults-only sundeck with suave seating to take in the sea views.

Add to this the variety of restaurants, bars and late-night entertainment, and it's easy to see why this cruise ship has such broad appeal.

When it comes to the cabins, those with children might want to opt for a more spacious Family Suite or Family Junior Suite, which comes with extras such as fun a chalkboard and a PlayStation 4.
