P&O Azura Cruise Reviews for Fitness to Europe - Eastern Mediterranean

I have only one gripe and that is the arrival time in Malta. I particularly wanted to visit Malta because I lived there as a small child but the late arrival time of 5pm ( we actually boarded at 8 pm but that was out of P&Os hands) from Gatwick meant we would arrive and sail very shortly afterwards. People who flew from Bristol & Manchester arrived at 11am allowing them to leave the ship and ...

I was a little hesitated to book this cruise given some of the more recent reviews were a bit mixed. However, I’ve just returned from a thoroughly enjoyable cruise with no significant complaints. It appears some of the die hard cruisers on here have been disappointed by some of the very minor changes P&O may have made with certain aspects. But in reality they will have no material impact on your ...

Chose this cruise mainly for the itinerary and it didn’t disappoint We flew to Malta from Bristol with TUI and it all went smoothly, we boarded not long after 11.00. We had packed some swimming costumes in our carry on luggage so could make quick use of the pools and hot tub as soon as we boarded (we changed in the spa changing rooms and staff offered a key for the locker to store our ...

Cannot fault the entire experience. From flight check in at Manchester, the TUI flight, check in for the cruise at Malta, the entire experience onboard to picking up the bags on return to Manchester airport. Thoroughly enjoyed everything. P&O's organizations was superb. Our superior deluxe cabin on deck 9 midship was immaculate throughout. It had a full size bathroom. We had an attentive steward ...

We chose this cruise because it was outside of school holidays and it went to some places we had not been to on other cruises. We started in Valetta, did a week in the eastern Med then back to Valetta, we then stayed on and went to Palma, Gibraltar and then onto the Canaries. We usually prefer adult only ships and smaller ships, to date this was the biggest ship we had been on. Having booked ...

We booked a week cruise around Corsica & Italy, followed by 4 days at the AX Palace in Malta with P&O in Sept 2022. By now formal Covid testing was not compulsory, and we duly did our home test kits, (negative), filled in our declarations & off we went. We chose P&O as we'd been on the Britannia in the past, and knew we could expect great service etc. We had booked an inside cabin to cut ...

We are just back from one of the best cruises we have had on the beautiful Azura. Fantastic from the moment we pulled up in the car portside and had our bags efficiently whisked away to and the smiling check in ladies and gents. Our cabin was available immediately and our bags were there before we were, and it only took us 20 minutes to board! Our cabin was immaculate, and bright and ...

Travelled as a family to Norway for the first time. Also first time on Azura. We arrived earlier than our embarkation time and did not have to wait long in departures to get on the ship. We chose a balcony cabin on deck C because of the larger balcony and it was brilliant. We found the cabin big enough for a week with a teenager in tow, lots of storage. Our cabin steward was lovely and very ...

We decided on this cruise for the ports of call, and it was great choice. September can be dodgy with the sun/rain, but this was sunshine all the way, with temperatures around the mid 20's. This was our first time on Azura but we have been on the sister ship Ventura, but we did find Azura a more happy place - not sure why but it might have something to do with the Captain - a great bloke. Yes if ...

We chose this cruise for our 50th Anniversary, we've been on the Azura before & enjoyed ourselves. Our cabin was lovely, food & entertainment fantastic, The Entertainments Team lead by Benne worked so hard, so much energy. The Sail Aways were exciting & got people into the swing of things. Staff all very helpful & understanding. Great choice of food in the Buffet, so much. Varied ...
