Bliss Mariner of the Seas
Departing round trip from New Orleans, this Bliss sailing brings together a vibrant community of like-minded couples for a cruise that feels equal parts electric, indulgent and easy to enjoy at your own pace. Whether you are a first-timer drawn in by the mystery of Mardi Gras or a seasoned guest ready for a brand-new Bliss experience, this cruise gives you room to celebrate, connect and explore in the way that feels right for you and your partner.
Cozumel brings sun-drenched beauty, easy island energy and the kind of Caribbean backdrop that makes every moment feel a little sexier. Spend the day soaking in turquoise water, lounging by the shore, exploring colorful local spots or slipping into vacation mode with a cold drink and nowhere to rush off to. It is the perfect blend of tropical freedom and playful escape before another unforgettable night back on board.
Costa Maya offers a more laid-back kind of temptation with soft coastal charm, bright blue water and plenty of ways to savor the day your way. Explore beach clubs, discover local flavor, wander the shoreline or simply settle in and enjoy a slower, more sensual pace before the energy builds again that night. It is relaxed, beautiful and made for couples who want a little adventure without losing the easy Bliss flow.

Do I have to stay at the Jung Hotel to attend?

Do I have to stay all 5 nights of event if I stay at The Jung Hotel?

Why book the cruise too?
The Mardi Gras event is the grand finale—high-energy, dazzling, unforgettable. But the cruise is where the experience really builds. It gives you days to connect, explore, and settle into the Bliss vibe, so by the time you arrive, you’re not surrounded by strangers—you’re celebrating with people you already know.
Think of the cruise as the perfect lead-in: sun-soaked days, immersive events and parties, and time to fully become your true self before the excitement of Mardi Gras. It’s what transforms the experience from a single great event into something deeper, more connected, and far more memorable.
Why do I need to book now?
By booking early, you’ll receive early bird booking rates for both the Cruise and the land based Mardi Gras event. Secondly, hotel rooms get more and more expensive as you get closer to Mardi Gras, so take advantage of the lower rates by booking now.
