2nd P&O cruise for myself and my partner. We had a fantastic time visiting some great locations and met some lovely folk during our time on Azura.
Embarkation was pretty smooth, had to wait a little while on luggage being delivered to cabin but not a major issue. We had an inside cabin which was spotless. The cabin steward was lovely and did a fantastic job.
Food - we loved The Glass ...
We have recently returned from a 10 night cruise on Regent Seven Seas Navigator (450 pax). We are a Brit/Dutch couple aged 53/60 and have sailed with various other cruise lines, several times, but this was our first time on Regent. Last year, we tried Oceania Marina for the first time and wanted to compare the two as they are sister companies. We’ve had a great cruise but we still (currently) ...
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 ...
This is my second time on Azura, but the first time I have been on her at capacity. Found it a bit dauntingly busy in places but the staff really tried their very best to keep up with busy bars and dining rooms.
Dining - A shame the app wasn't being used in my opinion. Instead quite a lot of queues and buzzers for the Main Dining rooms. The staff were clearly under enormous pressure. Breakfast ...
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 ...
This September we took the 15 night In-Depth Adriatic & Aegean cruise Oceania cruise from Valletta Malta to Istanbul. We had the standard oceanview cabin on the Nautica. The cabin was very nice and the bed was absolutely heavenly. There was some noise due to being right across from the door the crew used to get to their own cabins but no noise from above or either side. We had plenty of ...
My experience on the Ponant La Boungaville cruise from Malta to Nice was, for the most part, a mix of positive emotions and some disappointments. Let me start by highlighting the best aspects of this journey:
The standout of the cruise was undoubtedly the presence of Andrea, the cruise director. From the moment I stepped onto the ship, Andrea proved to be an exceptional host. Not only did he ...
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 ...
