We have just arrived home last week from caribbean cruise on ventura,and after reading many good and bad reviews on this ship,and having sailed with P&O 4 times before,once on ventura 3 years ago,I have to conclude that things are not the same,standards seem to be slipping, the food and entertainment are not on the same level as many other cruise companies,and the type of passengers seems to have changed.
You could say "you get what u pay for",we only booked two weeks before and got a lovely balcony cabin for a reduced priced,but I would not have been happy if I had paid full price,as I know a lot of passengers had,but a lot of people we spoke to had got a cheap holiday in the caribbean sunshine and were quite happy! So to sum, up if you can get a reduced price, cabin, from your local airport its dam good value for money.
BULLET POINTS.
cabin good size,but could have done with a good clean.Balcony good size but overlooked and you might get noisy neighbours.Plenty of hanging space and room for cases.Showers a bit small for tall husband and the shower curtains stick to you.Few complementary soaps ext but not the same variety or quality that they were a few years ago..Always enjoy tea and coffee facilities in cabins.Bed large and comfortable,nice sheets
