We returned today from Atlantic sunsets Marbella celebrations cruise 5th March2020. Due to the virus the cruise was cancelled after a few days and we set sail for Southampton.. We would like to say that we were treated with the utmost care and kindness by all the crew and staff, not a cross face anywhere though they must have been under a lot of stress. Well done Tui.

Just returned from an amazing two weeks on Marella Celebration around the Caribbean and I cannot rate the trip highly enough. We had the most brilliant time. Cabins perfectly adequate with lots of storage space and a nice size bathroom. Turndown service every evening. Restaurants brilliant especially the Meridien where the service and food was just amazing - never had the same choices in 2 weeks. Entertainment team was fantastic with great shows most nights. Special mention must be made of StrumJam and New Dimensions Trio - really got us in to the holiday mood. And Capt. Alex Downes - what a fantastic guy. Cannot rate the whole experience highly enough.
