This was to be our last cruise of the pacific islands.Had traveled on this ship when it was the dawn princess. I found that the dining room were redecorated and split into 3 areas.I preferred it the way it was before. Dress rules were not enforced at night. Often there were guest in shorts singlet tops and flip flops.There was no simulcast of the production shows.The theatre only holds about 600 people.There was no security or pool staff to supervise the use of the pool.The meals at the Pantry were often the same each day. Cold Cuts of meat were never provided for Lunch. The offering from Luke Mangans was the same each day (Boring) for which you had to pay extra for.This also was the case at the Waterfront Restaurant, A Steak there cost $17 and it was of poor quality. You need to avoid this!!! To summarise P&O need to upgrade the quality of there food and beverage to compete with other ships. This Ship is really low budget. It might suit some but not me.
