Explore even more with a Cruise and Stay Holiday

Combine cruising with a hotel stay – Enjoy the best of both worlds with TUI

If you’re torn between exploring new places on a cruise, or relaxing at a hotel, why not combine your sailing with a hotel stay as part of a Marella Cruise & Stay holiday?

Two holidays in one

With a Cruise & Stay package, you can spend a week cruising on a Marella ship followed by three, four, or seven nights in a hotel, or stay in a TUI Hotel the week before setting sail, offering the best of both worlds. Whether you’re new to cruising and want to combine a sailing with your usual beach break, or you just want to squeeze in some extra downtime, Cruise & Stay offers two holidays in one.

All-inclusive as standard

Marella Cruises’ fleet of five ships are All Inclusive as standard with all your meals, snacks and drinks included in the price of your cruise. Each ship offers a range of dining options, as well as a selection of bars and theatres on board with evening entertainment.

Everything’s included: Whichever Cruise & Stay holiday you pick, all your transfers are included, so you won’t need to worry about getting between the airport, the ship and your hotel. Plus, you’ll have 24/7 access to our helpful TUI reps throughout your hotel stay.

Dozens of destinations

Marella Cruises sail to dozens of destinations and focus on getting you to the destinations you love, so you spend less time at sea and more time soaking up the sights.

Your hotel stay depends on where your cruise’s home port is. So, if your cruise is sailing from Palma, Majorca, you can choose a hotel in Majorca for your stay – simple. There’s a selection of home ports to choose from, like Corfu, Majorca or Cyprus.

Pocket friendly to Platinum hotels

With hundreds of hotels to choose from close to your cruise’s port, TUI’s line-up of places to stay includes everything from budget-friendly spots to Platinum properties, family-focused to adult only. Some are plotted right on the beachfront, while others set you up for city sightseeing before or after setting sail.

TUI BLUE hotels with the family fun highlight have something for all ages, with the likes of  Swim School, character parades, BLUEf!t for Families workout sessions, and family-sized rooms and apartments. For adults, you can relax in child-free surroundings in one of TUI BLUE’s adults-only hotels – the perfect addition to an adults-only cruises. You can also opt for one of our Platinum hotels – these spots come with luxe touches like swish spas and á la carte restaurants.
