The option for the third ship was declined. The ship was named in Miami by Mary Hart on 5 February 2011.

Concept and construction

The finalization of contract for the construction of Marina and her sister ship, plus an option for a third, was reached on 18 June 2007. Marina was designed by Norwegian architectural firm Yran & Storbraaten (Y&S). The keel of Marina was laid on 10 March 2009 and included the welding of a U.S. silver dollar coin and a pre-Castro Cuban peso coin in the keel, which according to shipbuilding tradition is believed to bring fortune to the ship, its passengers and crew during their seagoing life. Marina has a diesel-electric powerplant with a pair of fixed pitch propellers.

The ship measures 66,084 gross tons and has the capacity for 1,250 passengers at double occupancy.
