P&O Barbados Cruise Reviews

We have been away for Christmas and New Year cruises for several years now - not always on P&O. This was our second time on Azura. The first was 6 years ago when the ship did the same 28 night trip although the ports of call were in a slightly different order. We had upgraded to premium economy on the Thomson flight from Manchester to Barbados and had also paid an extra £100 each for the ...

We have cruised many times and were on the Azura for 4 weeks over Christmas & New Year 2016/2017. The Thomson flights to and from Barbados were fine but a little late, and you now have to pay for drinks, except for water. Tea and coffee with the meals is also complimentary. This was the first of several examples of P&O penny pinching, as the last time we flew for a P&O Caribbean cruise all ...

This was our First Christmas and New Year Cruise and maybe our last?, we flew from Manchester on a 767-300, "it was strongly hinted it would be a dream liner but sadly not" this was our first long haul Flight and the last, (mind you we did have to fly back and we were dreading it), Six out of the Eight on board Toilets packed up on our journey, the queues were long and very lengthy, we, the ...

EMBARKATION We had sailed on Azura in January 2016 and had a great cruise. We were delighted to repeat that lovely experience. P and O use charter flights from Manchester, our local airport, and both the direct flights on the Dreamliner and their organisation were superb. We did not see our luggage after checking in at the airport until we arrived in our cabin. Coaches were waiting on the ...

This was our second P&O cruise, the first being a four day mini-cruise which failed to meet nearly all of our expectations. So it was with some trepidation that we booked a two week Caribbean cruise (Dec 2016). Flights were with Thompsons and I have to say the Dreamliner trip out from Birmingham was excellent. What was even better was that our cases, taken at Birmingham Airport, were to be ...

We chose this cruise for its sensible basic price, destination and prospect of good weather during the English winter. It was our second cruise and we were looking forward to making constructive comparisons with our first a year ago, with Princess. In essence, we were disappointed the last one had to end. But not so with this one. The matter mostly at stake is that P&O are trying to meet ...

We are experienced cruisers in our 60's, first time on a P&O ship. Being able to choose a direct flight to the Caribbean avoiding the USA was very appealing with no worries about our luggage was heaven. We choose to book with a Cruise Specialist rather than direct with P&O gaining a significant discount also upgrading our flights to Premium Economy. The Thomson flights to/fro Gatwick were ...

I am writing this review as a counter balance to some of the negative comments I have read from other members. For circa £3.5k we were flown by Thomson Dreamliner to Barbados and embarked Britannia with no customs formalities and no hassle. The ship itself is beautiful, the staff very friendly, the cabins clean and adequate and the food of a generally high standard. We visited some great places, ...

Visited the Caribbean 6 years ago on the Ventura, and decided to return again to celebrate my husbands 50th birthday. We were worried close to the time of the cruise due to the number of negative reviews, but we had the best holiday of our lives and would highly recommend. We loved the ship, she's beautiful and looks smart and classy. We have been on the Ventura, Azura and Oceana, and ...

I chose to go on this ship as we had been on a cruise with p&O before on the beautiful Ventura around the med. it was my 60th and I wanted to do something special so booked this very expensive trip! we booked what was meant to be a deluxe balcony cabin so paid a bit more. So here we go with all that is wrong with this ship: On arrival to our cabin, we noticed that like the Ventura the settee ...
