Tenerife to the Canary Islands Cruise Reviews

So this is our 4th MSC cruise , and have sailed with various other lines to compare to. Generally a great cruise, beautiful ship, good food and great staff. Here are a few key bits... Boarding- We boarded at Tenerife in the mid point of a 21 day cruise so there was only 200 others boarding today. Took 5minutes! Brilliant Ship at 50% capacity so nothing was busy anywhere! Not sure what ...

My Wife and I chose this cruise as a Cruise and Stay holiday. We had 3 nights in the Iberostar Bougainville in Costa Adeje before being transferred to the Azura. Boarding was excellent,easily the best we’ve ever experienced. In no time at all we were on board and in the Atrium. Now we have heard a lot of glowing reports about the Azura and we were really looking forward to our cruise . Many ...

3 day stay in Tenerife and 7 day cruise,stopping at Maderia , Lanzarote and Gran Canaria. Ship in general looks tired. Furniture in cabins adequate but dated; a lot of brown and beige. Light displays in main dining areas were not functioning properly. The food was the most disappointing aspect. I am a Pescetarian and my husband vegetarian. The food in the main dining rooms were ...

Took a 10 day trip. First three nights in Santa Cruz. Nice enough city. Very clean. Usual shops etc. They were celebrating the Epiphany which meant on the Friday it was bank holiday so everything was shut ( jan 6 th). Got on the boat. Billed as a P and O’s midsize adults only. Food Buffet very much same day after day. Very compact and not set out very well at all. Distinct lack of ...

This cruise fitted in with my work holidays and my childs school holidays - it was a decent price, as it included the flights - shame they where from Birmingham, as Manchester would have been better. There was 3 cabins booked - we had linked all 3 of the bookings - but sadly on NYE the first night only 2 of the cabins where at the same table for dinner - and this was at 5.30pm - when we only ...

bland, tasteless repetitive non regional food in main restaurants, slow service ( not enough staff restaurants and bars), tiny choice in buffet. speciality restaurants could not try as has not booked pre boarding. lack of attention to detail. nothing for midnight new year eve ( even paper part hat), all feels dated and neglected....scuffed walls, non working lifts, non working water/coffee ...

We chose this cruise because it was seven nights and days in the sun. It was also to celebrate my birthday on New Years Eve. As we had sailed on Azura before we were familiar with the ship. We had requested a table for 8 for New Years Eve. We were given a table for two in a dark corner at the back of the ship. P&O were informed that this was a special birthday. No acknowledgment whatsoever. ...

My husband and I decided to go away for Christmas,our travel agent recommended this ship,as she had just had a good holiday on it,we decided to make it for two weeks over the new year as well.From stepping on the ship I was emmediately impressed,not only by the fabulous Xmas decorations,but the friendliness of staff,it was plain sailing to our cabin on the 9th floor,with a lovely welcome from ...

The good points were, Price reasonable, Comfortable, and clean. Now the stuff that needs attention. Most of these have been done by MARELLA for years. The Playhouse shows have been the same for the last 3 years so maybe a change would help there. The pantomime was BRILLIANT by the way. Entertainment in the music venues could be more varied. There was only 1 female singer in the Malabar ...

This was our first cruise at Christmas and first voyage on P&O. We decided on Azura around the Canary Islands as the dates worked perfectly for us. The ship is very dated for its age and in need of some TLC in the public areas and a good deep clean. It was 50/50 if the toilets would be clean when you used them, bins overflowing floors wet!!! First time I’ve been on a cruise and seen toilets ...
