Why book an adults-only cruise with Marella Cruises?

With a ship that's reserved exclusively for adults, and occasional sailings just for those aged 17 and over across the rest of our fleet, there are plenty of grown-up getaways to choose from with Marella Cruises.

Top-notch amenities

You’ll find plenty of luxe touches onboard, from a Champagne* and prosecco bar to a spa with a treatment menu that’s as long as your arm. And when it comes to mealtimes, there are fine-dining options in the mix.

Peace and quiet

Downtime’s firmly on the cards on our adults-only itineraries, whether you’re looking forward to quiet dinners and low-key live music, pool-and-tanning time, or days lounging on cocoon chairs and Balinese-style beds* at The Veranda.

Grown-up experiences

When you fancy upping the pace, you’ll find the likes of Broadway-inspired shows and cocktail-making sessions on the things-to-do line-up. And if you feel like a flutter, there’s always the casino.

Our adults-only ship

Here’s a taste of what you can expect onboard our adults-only ship, Marella Explorer 2.

Dining

You can take your pick from a crop of restaurants, so no two mealtimes have to be exactly the same. The line-up ranges from fine dining at The Dining Club* to pizza and pasta at Nonna’s, and pan-Asian fare at Kora La*.

Entertainment

Catch West End-style shows in the Broadway Show Lounge, listen to live singers, try your luck in the casino, or dance the night away at Indigo. For something a little different, there’s The 19th Hole* – our golf-themed bar, complete with a simulator and professional hosts.

Spa and wellness

If you fancy some pampering, you can pick from a long list of treatments – from manicures to massages – at the spa*. On top of that, you’ll find whirlpools by the pool, and a gym where you can keep up with your workout routine.

Cabins

Our cabins are kitted out with all the essentials, like air conditioning, a TV, a safe, a hairdryer, tea and coffee-making facilities, and a wardrobe with space for all your holiday outfits. We’ve got the full range of options, from inside cabins to fancy suites with balconies.
