10+ Cruises • Age 60s

We have been on around 15 cruises but this was our first on P & O. We chose the cruise for the itinerary. We found the embarkation the best we have experienced. We were processed within 30 mins and on the ship. We had a superior balcony D cabin. it was a decent size with a nice size bathroom and balcony. The steward was very good. The ship while a mid size is the most confusing layout of any ship ...

We choose this cruise, because of the Itinerary? I can’t fly, we have been on 8 previous cruises, once before on the Ventura, we vowed not to go with P&O again,? But the itinerary swayed us? Let me start with the main problem??? If you board the Ventura and they give you room C403? RUN!! Do not take it!! It’s by the lift shaft,? And all through the night, we were kept awake by a constant, very ...

2nd timers on Ventura find it mostly lives up to our memories.

Chose this cruise as we had only been to lanzarote of the Canary Islands before and non of the other ports except Lisbon ( and then only on a business trip) the fact we had been on Ventura before (back in 2010 for our first cruise) and that it had just been spruced up was also an attraction as we would know the ship and hopefully be chilled from the start. This was also the first time our son ...

Not a bad cruise, but could be tweaked!

I have previously sailed twice on Princess ships and thoroughly enjoyed the experience and the holidays. We chose this P&O cruise as the dates were ideal and it was a short break away from work to visit some new places. As cruise holiday expectations are a completely personal thing, I will instead run down some of the good bits we loved about the cruise and some bits we thought could be ...

Having been on Ventura twice before, thought we would be ok in E112, deck 8 , (affectionately now named "roller coaster" deck), bad mistake - which was admittedly our own fault. After 5 days was unbearable, P&O duty managers excellent and very understanding and changed our cabin to C424, which was so much better. Were told interactive service in cabin was not working for this cruise, however it ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 50s

Thought I ought to write a review as I did look on this site for reviews prior to going so only fair really. So in our opinion: PRO's Check in at Southampton took 15 mins and was very straightforward. Compared to boarding a flight from Heathrow its just magical. Staff are very good and often very sweet (must do it because they enjoy it as I expect the wages are terrible) We were on ...

We were very excited to go on our first cruise, since lots of our friends cruise all the time and recommend them. I'm not sure if we just picked the wrong trip but its really not my thing. The Ventura is very big and busy. The 2 worst things were: 1. The meals - mass catered low quality food, even if you opt for a restaurant rather than a buffet 2. The tender transfers. We waited upwards ...

Awful experience for Solo Traveller

2-5 Cruises • Age 50s

Have been doing a few cruises with different companies trying to find the best to become loyal to. I have to say, in my opinion, P&O has been the worse experience so far. Although Ventura is one of their larger vessels, it was easy to navigate and numerous bars and venues, however, they were all relatively small in comparison and entertainment not spread out enough meaning everyone trying to get ...

I hadn’t had a holiday for fifteen years, so I decided to treat myself to a cruise. I found doing the research a very steep learning curve, but eventually decided on P&O. I was restricted on the dates I could go due to set work holidays so the best fit for me was 7 nights on Ventura to Spain, Portugal and Guernsey from Southampton. As I was travelling from Newcastle upon Tyne I decided to travel ...
