1-10 of 17 P&O Azura Cruise Reviews for Senior to Europe - Eastern Mediterranean
we have just returned from a cruise on the azura along the croation coast flying from malta,we went with another couple ,the cruise on the azura & with p & o was very good & i dont understand a lot of the negative reviews i looked at before we left.
ok a few small issues like the buffet being crowded at times,which it will be because you have over 3000 people on board.
the balcony cabin ...
Having read the reviews in advance we were a little worried. This was our 27th cruise (various lines including P&O). We had an aft balcony cabin which was on the corner of the ship. It was spotlessly clean and, although a little tired furnishing-wise, due ship's age, it was more than adequate. Only gripe was the bed seemed harder than usual. The service around the ship was fine, staff were ...
Cruised from Malta for 7 days going to Greece, Corfu, Dubrovnik and Split.
Was a little apprehensive having seen other reviews but the bottom line is we did have a good enjoyable cruise.
Recent cruises have been the Harmony of the Seas and we previously cruised on the Ventura (2017 I think) and had a excellent time so using those as a benchmark.
Flights and Transfers to/from the ship etc. ...
Just had a lovely cruise around the Greek Island on Azura. Despite other reviews, we found the food to be good and plentiful, however, we do agree that the choice, especially in the main restaurants, have been reduced. My wife was so looking forward to her prawn cocktail starter which was always on the menu in the past but not now. The ship is looking tired in a lot of areas and there seemed to ...
We have recently returned from our Azura cruise and have had a lovely holiday. The ship is older but smart in places. We travelled on her a few years ago and noticed a few improvements.
There does seem to be a few cutbacks with staffing but we found staff very helpful and most of them have double jobs on board and work hard.
The food in the main dining area were smaller portions which ...
The Azura staff from stateroom to bar staff are amazing We were served quickly wherever we went on ship and all staff were helpful and courteous. We could always find a seat in bars an theatre too.
The food for most part was delicious and being gluten free I found waiters in restaurants really helpful. Gluten free options were always marked on the menu and each night the head waiter would bring ...
We've been on the Azura on many occations. Where we fly into Malta and go on a weeks cruise around the Med. This year we visited Greece and Turkey.
We were delighted with the flight out to Malta. It only took us 25 minutes from start to finish to get flight side and the only slight delay at Malta was getting through their Border Control.
There's been a couple of changes over the last few ...
We cruised from Malta to Croatia, taking in Split, Zadar, Dubrovnik and Trieste.
The ship is small compared with the Iona, which is a ship we love to sail on.
The entertainment was excellent with a good variety of comedy, music, magic and movies to watch.
However, the food in the buffet was so disappointing. I spoke to other cruisers about this and many said the same and that they are ...
Just back today from our week on Azura.
The main point is we really enjoyed our cruise. As usual we met some lovely other cruisers (and a few of the other ones!). The destinations were good, the staff helpful and friendly. The shows were excellent. All in all a great cruise. Here comes the howevers.
These are all minor but they do sort of add up.
There was a shortage of ...
Chose the cruise as being of good value for an early Easter get away, travelled with wife and child age 12. It was our first time on Azura however have sailed P&O several times before. The ship was well maintained in public areas. The cabin cleanliness could have been better. The food in the MDR was good but with small portion sizes. Sindhu as excellent as ever. The Glass House and the Beach ...
