P&O Australia Adelaide Cruise Reviews

Cruised with our family of 16,14 of them first time cruisers. Chose a short cruise, close to home incase anyone didn't enjoy cruising. The weather was pretty good, fairly calm seas, and everyone enjoyed it (seeing nobody wanted to get off). Kid's aged 9 to 16, were kept busy all day. Gatsby night was really good, dance floor a little small, but the evening was very entertaining. The Bianco ...

Since our last PO cruises 8yrs ago PO standards have dropped to below par. This was our 4th time using PO Aust. So many add ons and sales on board to get the passengers spending more money. It seemed there was always someone from some department trying to get you to sign up or upgrade. They would approach you while eating, ordering drinks, walking past them, leaving ship etc. The ...

Having 18 past cruises to compare with, My Wife and I would say we ought to be capable of accurately compiling and submitting this review. It is my opinion that this ship is dangerously old. The very visible rusted major steel structures are of great concern. Many totally clouded and cracked window panels in public areas are another telltale sign that this vessel is fast becoming destined for the ...

Disappointed with this cruise. Weather was good and sailing was smooth. Loved that it was just a short cruise of four days and enjoyed the shore trips to Port Lincoln and Kangaroo Island however the ship is very old and tired and really shabby. Staff were mostly friendly and efficient but clearly overworked and tired. One cleaner told us they work 12 hour days for 7 days a week with no ...

We were on a 4 night sailing Adelaide-Pt Lincoln-Kangaroo Island-Adelaide in Feb 2024. Deck 10 balcony cabin. Cabin was dated. Loose tap in bathroom sink and one of the bedside lights non operational (although did turn itself on at 3am one morning). Food quality was good with the Dragon Lady and Angelo's restaurant excelling. Selection of different foods in The Pantry on Deck 14 but the ...

We were looking forward to the Fremantle-Fremantle Kimberley Adventure Cruise and so decided to add this leg to our trip and no regrets! Albany & Busselton were wonderful. Unfortunately we didn’t get past Exmouth in the filling leg of the trip as the ship was diverted out to sea due to cyclone Isla and there went our Kimberley cruise. We stayed in two different rooms during this trip. Room 10154 ...

We did a 14 day Adelaide - N Z - Adelaide cruise in March 2023. While the cruise did have it's challenges a good time was still had. Milford sound sail through was cancelled 10 days before departure but this was not unexpected as N Z has stopped most ships going there this year , P & O are not alone there! Due to bad weather 1 port was cancelled and 2 were shorter than planned. As ...

Embarkation: we lined up for over an hour to get into the terminal. It seems that everyone arrived for a 12:30pm boarding time despite the time they were actually given. Once we got into the terminal the process was relatively straight forward. I'm not too sure why I bothered getting my second covid vaccine or doing the rat test though as these were never checked. Room: we had a three birth ...

My extended family and I paid very close to $20,000 for this cruise to New Zealand. In addition, my siblings had travelled from Europe for what was supposed to be a meaningful, therapeutic and pleasant experience. We had lost both parents to Covid and this was the first time we had reunited - we were looking forward to a magical New Zealand cruise experience. It was far from magical. The lack ...

We chose this cruise due to the itinerary plus as it left from Adelaide it saved the hassle of travelling interstate. It was a 14 night cruise to New Zealand. Be very cautious with P&O pricing - our cabin ranged from a price of $1400pp down to as low as $550 on discount and we paid $1100pp on a special fare but it did not come with a price match. Even if you book early then you dont seem to get ...
