  • Kicking off our Marella Discovery Cruise to Florida, Bahamas, New York and Charleston with a full tour and review of our cabin! It’s an ocean view cabin, (cabin no. 2012), deck 2, forward and port side, very close to sea level with great ocean views and near to the lifts and stair case. Just 2 decks above you’ll find lots of bars, restaurants a and the atrium. I’ll also show you the in-cabin dining service menu / costs and laundry facilities.
    What do you think? Is this a cabin you could imagine staying in? Our last cabin was an inside and this was far far better for all sorts of reasons!
    Don’t forget to give this video a cheeky little like, subscribe and turn on notifications for my bi-weekly cruise and travel vlogs plus next week get ready for the big one; a week on board Marella Discovery including all our ports of call!

    We have just booked this cabin, my father says I'm a cabin snob and always trying to act posh.
    So prove him wrong, I got my butler to book this.

      We are loving it! Food is great, service excellent & it doesn’t feel crowded (2000 onboard). The app is great - love ordering food & drinks to our location! We’ve gone for the drink package as the wifi is priceless for communicating with home on a 2weeker. The things in my original comment are certainly not deal breakers but would feature on my ‘fantasy cruise line’!

    Like all the cupboard space in the cabin, and nice big window and mirrors. Went on Marella Explorer in Feb this year and had a huuuge cabin - two separate rooms in fact with an enormous balcony. It was a special occasion so pushed the boat out ( sorry😛). I thought it was a lovely ship. Jamie I like your idea for the crease release spray and will look out for it! Looking forward to the rest of your review to see how Discovery compares to Explorer! 👍

    Fab review Jamie,We loved Discovery when we sailed on her in 2019,and we really wanted to sail on her again this year,but the US itinerary was a little out of our budget range,So we opted to sail on Discovery 2,this summer in a deluxe balcony cabin for 2 weeks around the western Med.( practically identical ship I think?)Looking forward to your next vlogs in this series 😎🛳
