Standards have fallen and unhelpful staff

Whilst the crew were attentive some had only very limited English. The ship was immaculately clean and our cabin steward was lovely but the ice bucket ordered for 6pm each evening more often than not failed to arrive on time if at all. The food for the first 2/3 days was tepid and we regularly sent back cold coffee. There was no information given about ports of call other than to suggest ...

We have cruised over 20 times with P&O but this ship was a poor experience for us. The ship itself is very nice,but as far as we are concerned thats where it ends!!. The ship is very large and impersonal, unlike the other ships it just does not flow. Once onboard we had to download the holiday app in order to book shows etc, however that was a complete farce because as soon as we tried to book ...

A cut back too far.

We’re experienced cruisers but our first time on P&O. We’d always believed P&O to be a cut above the rest but our experience on Ventura fell short of expectations. There’s nothing basically wrong with P&O Ventura but it didn’t “wow”. It all felt a bit pedestrian, service reduced to a minimum, no frills, no extras. Everything feels a bit lack lustre. Talking to other guests who have ...

This was our second and last cruise, The food was very bland with Curries every day. Disinbarkation was a shambles. Mainly due to the Sheds being used were build for smaller Cruise Ship not ones with over 6000 passengers. Main complaint is that my wife and I both returned with Covid, over the last few days of the Cruise more and more people were having meals delivered to their Cabins I ...

Overall I had a lovely holiday, I always try to write reviews that are honest and hopefully help other people make decisions about their holidays. I will say this is only my second cruise - my first was in 2020 with Costa to Madagascar. I am by no means a cruise expert, but I do travel abroad at least twice a year, So i hope this helps you in some way. We booked in January the " BRAND NEW ...

1st cruise post covid, we had this trip booked for September 2020 which was cancelled. Three of us travelling in 2 balcony cabins, part of celebrating my mums 80th birthday. Husband and I have completed a number of cruises on Princess, RCI, Celebrity & P&O. Boarding was one of the slickest we have experienced, 30 mins from arrival at port to being on the ship, we did arrive near to our ...

Organised a friends get together for a weeks cruise around the Greek Islands sailing from Malta. Arrival to Malta went well, embarkation went smoothly. Had an extended stay due to late arriving passengers (not their fault). Valletta is a beautiful city and well worth a visit. One couple in the group were given their cabin keys only to find an officer in their bed who had been working the night ...

Introduction We have enjoyed many cruises (15+) over several years, and the majority have been with P&O. This time we cruised on their newest and largest ship, Arvia, going to the Mediterranean (although in fact, the only destinations were in Spain) in September. One port was changed from Marseille to Cartagena due to a Rugby match in Marseille. As the ship was not going to cover any ...

Overall, I had an ok cruise on the P&O Arvia. The main positives were: - Limelight Club - Great entertainment by Alice Fearn - Excellent Food at Sindhu, the Keel and Cow and the Beach House - Kezia Gill and the shows in the Skydome - Food in the Olive Grove and the 6th Street Diner - Staff in Brodies were super friendly and the trivia was fun in there! - Balcony Cabin was nice ...
