Marella Explorer 2 dry dock

[paulatsea]

Does anyone know the extent of explorer 2 dry dock / refurb ? 
It’s in dry dock Cadiz I believe at the moment.

 

We were on the Adriatic affair cruise recently and it definitely needs doing up in some areas.

The crew said it was going into dry dock after our cruise but didn’t know what was being done.

 

I think the next cruise is Nov 26 transatlantic.

When we were on board recently the staff said that it's mostly work on the engine etc and lots of painting. Not sure what's being done in other areas. Many of the crew were excited to be going home although lots were staying on board. They said they would be painting and cleaning but they would be staying in the cabins and eating in the dining rooms

Nice crew on that ship. 

cabins need refurbishing - our bathroom was worn out and smelt of sewerage !

broken drawers and cup holder in the bathroom came off in our hands !! 
 

We enjoyed the cruise though - it was great to see Slovenia - really nice place.

We have been several times on explorer 2 and always liked it - but we won’t go again until it’s done up a bit.
