P&O Gourmet Food Cruises Reviews

Sadly, I'm of the same opinion of other prople on board Very disappointed with this Carabbean trip. Ports over crowded by too many ships. However, l must say, the staff were excellent. Our cabin steward did his best to keep our tardy cabin clean everyday. The shower head was broken which took two attempts at repair; there was mould in the shower corners; the toilet seat was disgusting: ...

We choose Ventura for the ports of call. Alas, three were cancelled but the ports we did call at were in the main okay during our 35 night sailing. Never again on Ventura, the food was of poor quality, the service, hit and miss, the entertainment average, I don't think anyone would watch the acts if they appeared at venues other than on a cruise. The cabins, managed to a Travel Lodge standard, ...

I travelled on P&O for first time and selected the ship Ventura. This was my first mistake, the ship has no wow factor like I've experienced with other brands. My biggest mistake was choosing P&O as their staff in Bars and Restaurants simply don't seem to care. 1) ordered wine with dinner, it turned up whilst I was eating my desert. 2) I asked to order a drink at a bar. It Was ...

The value of the cruise was good but once onboard the experience is not great. The ship is tired and old , really needs a modern update. MY cabin was in need of updating and cabin staff just seem stressed and miserable. We were allocated a great table at The Oriental but no Sommelier so the poor waiting staff are stressed out trying to get the hot food and cope with taking drinks orders which is ...

Seasoned cruisers and over 25 completed now and 2nd time on Britannia and just not sure where it has all gone wrong! So where do i start hmmmmmmm! Ship itself looks very dated and not what what you expect from a ship that is under 10 years old. No technology used to get you around the ship, ok for us but for newbies not easy. Pool Area- lots of tiles missing. Service around the ...

Embarkation superb; atrium pathetically underwhelming; cabin spotless and stewardess excellent; ship tired and has the feel of being past it's sell by date; In-house shows very professional; singers average; comedians pretty dire and smutty (the two go together),and in the main not funny; cost cutting everywhere, flogging you stuff at every opportunity; food average only; tea and coffee dire (not ...

I have been on ten cruises in total (four different companies), with my teenage children and without so I think I have enough experience to give a fair and honest review. This is my second P&O cruise, the first one was four nights from Southampton, this one from Tenerife. We will never go and P&O again. The good - rooms were in good order and beds comfortable. We did ask to be near my ...

Beware of the spa! 2 treatments booked and paid for before joining the ship. During one treatment, the assistant said one aspect had been booked but I could have all 3 if I wished. No additional price was mentioned. Before leaving they apologised and said they'd made an error by adding the whole cost to my onboard account when I'd prepaid, and they'd need to reset my account, and needed a ...

The cruise itself was OK. Usual P&O fare, full of Brits, many moaning about stuff that was fine really. Food was fine but not great. Glass House is the only Speciality food venue worth paying for. Hard to get away from the noise on the pool decks. Crew are lovely The real issue is their post cruise service. P&O booked a cheap airline (Maleth Aero) for the Caribbean winter season. Our flight was ...

We'd cruised before but not with P and O and decided to give them a try. We were very disappointed throughout. Our Cabin was flooded from the cabin next door and it took them 2 days to move us. The carpet was wet through and we didn't know with what. The cabin we were moved to had a toilet malfunction, it over filled with fresh water thankfully. Although it was 11 pm at night and we had ...
