Marella Discovery 2

Marella Discovery 2’s main eatery is a big, stylish venue, finished in the colours of the sand and the sea. Daytime meals here come with a side-order of sea views, thanks to floor-to-ceiling windows, and a grand double staircase leads up to a separate eatery.

This place has a split personality, but for all the right reasons. By day, it deals in deli-style light bites and freshly-squeezed juices. Come sundown, the venue turns into casual restaurant with a tapas-style menu. Plus, you can cook your own steaks on hot stones, for an extra charge.

You’ll find this trendy Italian restaurant on the second floor of the ship’s main dining room. It’s a laid-back place, where bookings aren’t necessary, and its designer look features a colour scheme inspired by the sunset.

Big buffet spreads are laid out in this restaurant, with show-cooking stations on-hand to offer things like breakfast omelettes, and carvery roasts in the evening. You can grab snacks in between meals, too.

As its name suggests, this à la carte eatery specialises in the likes of marbled steaks and meaty lobster tails. You’ve also got other meat and fish options, as well as plenty to satisfy a vegetarian palate. You’ll pay a cover charge to eat dinner here.

Marella Cruises’ signature pan-Asian à la carte makes an appearance onboard Marella Discovery. The menu covers off south and east Asia, featuring dishes like Indian spiced king prawns, and Indonesian beef rendang curry. A cover charge applies for dining here, and you’ll need to make a reservation.

This is another of Marella Discovery 2’s standout bars, defined by hi-tech evening entertainment. LED screens accompany family-focussed game shows and performances from virtual bands, as well as our new, made-for-children Splash! Live interactive shows which take place during high season.

Plush seating and an 800-plus capacity give the ship’s main entertainment venue professional credentials. They have 11 unique shows, including Beatz Interactive, a hi-tech dance piece featuring LED-lit costumes.

In a Marella Cruises first, we’re premiering an open air cinema. It means you can watch classic movies and the latest box office hits under the stars. Blankets, popcorn, and hot chocolate will be available from the nearby bar.

Grab a seat – and a glass of bubbles – at this classy bar, and you’ll have a great view of the entertainment in the atrium.

A position on the highest point on deck 11 – where the bar gets its name from – means that drinks in this lounge come with the ship’s best sea views. It’s a contemporary cocktail bar by evening, transforming into a late-night disco as the hours pass.

Marella Discovery 2’s flagship watering hole is our most spacious and modern yet, and houses our biggest selection of on-tap beers. Expect the atmosphere to build pace as the hours draw in – evenings might start with the sounds of our signature yellow piano, and end with the sounds of dancefloor classics.

Come sundown, little ones will love this high-energy interactive show, where our friendly characters lead songs and games. Splash Live takes place throughout the high season.

The stylish casino is open until late, and features blackjack tables, and fruit machines. If you’re a beginner, ask the croupiers about getting some lessons in. You’ve also got the entertainment – and the bar – in the Live Room to accompany you while you’re having a flutter.

In this real-life room escape game, you'll need to work as a team to find clues and solve puzzles before the time runs out. A charge applies for this activity.

This fun, interactive space has gaming consoles for adults and children.

Drop by the Pure Portrait Studio, and you can book in for a classic indoor photo shoot, or a more fun-filled session on the deck.

Brave the rock climbing wall and get a bird’s-eye view of the ship and surrounding ocean.

Everyone makes a big effort for the weekly formal night, so 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. Enjoy a workout in the fleet’s largest gym, before working up an even bigger sweat in the sauna.

A brand new feature for Marella Cruises, Marella Discovery’s indoor pool comes with a huge glass canopy roof, and rows of loungers.

Take the whole family to the minigolf green for an afternoon of fun. It’s got nine holes and widescreen sea views.

An open-air pool for all the family. Loungers are lined up along the water’s edge.
