Our adults-only ships

Two of our ships – Marella Explorer 2 and Marella Discovery 2 – are reserved just for adults, so they're perfect for a totally child-free holiday. They're home to exclusive venues you won't find on any other ship. You can find out more on our adults-only cruises page.

And there are plenty of adults-only restaurants, bars and other venues^ dotted throughout the rest of our fleet, so grown-up getaways are always on the cards.

Marella Discovery 2

Marella Discovery 2 is the second ship in our fleet to go adults only. Take a sneak peek at some of the ship's exclusive venues, coming soon...

The Lost Luggage Bureau

Transport yourself back to the golden age of travel at this immersive speakeasy bar*. Once you've entered through the secret door, you'll find yourself in an interactive 90-minute mystery show, with theatre, cocktails, and plenty of surprises along the way.

Amplify Karaoke

Channel your inner popstar with a session in our state-of-the-art karaoke* booth at sea. With space for up to seven guests, mood lighting and an immersive design, it's ideal for celebrations and get-togethers with friends.

Red Handed

Work together to attempt a daring jewel theft in this 1920s cabaret-themed escape room*. If you want to succeed, you'll have to put your best puzzle-solving head on, and remember – you're battling against the clock.

The Loft

Part library, part creative hub and part social space, The Loft will be your go-to when you fancy a little peace and quiet. Play board games, get stuck into your latest book or join an arts and crafts session – how you want to unwind is up to you.

Marella Explorer 2

The adults-only Marella Explorer 2 flaunts a range of exciting facilities, from a large spa to a chic bar-club-casino space. You’ve got ten bars and ten restaurants onboard, too.

Beach Cove

True to its name, this place* has a beachy vibe – think swing seats and big sliding doors that bring al fresco vibes to the indoor seating area. Sandwiches and salads are on the menu during the day, and come evening, it's all about barbecue-inspired fare like burgers and ribs.

The 19th Hole

Tee off on one of two golf simulators* and sip golf-themed cocktails in this clubhouse-style bar. If other sports are more your thing, you can try your hand at football and baseball-themed games and arcade classic, Skee-Ball.

Flutes

Champagne* and prosecco are on the menu at this bubbles-focused bar, which is ideal for a pre-dinner drink. You'll even find handy 'press for bubbles' buttons at the tables, so ordering a top-up couldn't be easier.

The Dining Club

French food with a modern twist is on the menu at The Dining Club*. And if you’re here on one of our Dress to Impress nights, you'll tuck in to a seven-course tasting menu with wine pairings. Just so you know, there’s a charge to dine here.

Adults-only venues across the fleet

Even if you're not sailing on one of our adults-only ships, you'll have plenty of grown-up places to visit. Some of these venues can be found across the entire Marella fleet, while others are exclusive to one or two ships. Visit our ships page for more details.

Spas

Our onboard spas* line up the likes of saunas and steam rooms, and you can pick from a long list of treatments, from facials to massages.

The Veranda

You’ll find this adults only veranda at the front of the ship, with a selection of luxury sunbeds for you to kick back on.

Kora La

This Pan-Asian restaurant's* a favourite across the fleet, with a menu designed by master chef Ian Pengelley that covers off south and east Asian dishes.

The Electric Rooms

You'll find this three-in-one bar, club and casino on Marella Voyager. With an LED dancefloor at its heart, it's the perfect spot for a late-night boogie.
