P&O Cruise Reviews (2024 UPDATED): Ratings of P&O Cruises (2024)

3.5

I haven't been on a cruise for 10 years and have great memories of my last Norwegian cruise. We had the bus to Southampton and in all fairness, boarding went smoothly, bags arrived quickly at cabins which were ready quick.The room was a basic balcony on B deck, small balcony but acceptable. Considering ship had just come out of refit, surprised to see paper stuff in doors to stop drafts.

advertised as Norwegian fjords cruise we only went into one fjord the rest of the destinations were modern industrial ports with the exception of perhaps stavanger where there was a small section of the old town at the other destination s there was nothing to do unless you had booked onto one of the very expensive shore trips.the dining experience was not good the "freedom dining" did not

This was our first cruise and we went as a family of three with our 20 month old son. We booked a suite for the extra space and definitely think that was a good idea when you add in the cot and just having more space for our son to run around. We also made very good use of the suite benefits. We are breakfast each morning in the Epicurean and also had an afternoon tea and a dinner there. The

We really enjoyed the week cruise , food in meridian and peninsular restaurants was very good , only fault I had was desert apple crumble was terrible in the main very tasty, but the buffet on deck 15 was poor for getting seated and half of the buffet atea on a evening is barriered off to create a beach club restaurant where you could pay extra for table service and better standard i assume of

...

The balcony cabins were good and the cabin staff were very friendly.The food wasn't bad at all but not amazing. The ship itself feels very dated, the bars had very limited drinks on offer, particularly spirits & they have still not got on top of the Norovirus problem they've been having for a couple of months, despite all cleaning procedures being enhanced. My husband and I both left the ship

We booked this with 3 other couples 2 of these had not cruised before. We are aged between 38 and 49. The intention was a taster of cruising. The attraction was the overnight stay in Amsterdam. I had been on Ventura 10 years ago with my family and had a great time. The ship has held up well given its age. First opinion on boarding was pleasant and well organised. Staff at Southampton were

...

Overall our cruise was very good but the deck waiter service was very poor. Having to queue at the bar to place an order then waiting again for it to be completed. We had booked 2 nights at the Epicurian but cancelled the 2nd after our first visit. It had list its atmosphere and magic.My husband ordered crepe suzette for dessert so that he could watch it being prepared by our table but it was

This is the 4th time on Azura, having been on the ship in her Maiden year to the Baltics 2010 ,Med 2012 and the Fjords 2017 and I am pleased to say she has still plenty of life left in her yet though obviously not new.I had read so many negative reviews about her after I had booked this one, that I tried to cancel it but couldnt without a large financial loss. Who writes these reviews ? this

I’ve gone on +-10 cruises over the past 20 years, this was by far the worst. The positives - modern ship, nice finishes, friendly MDR and horizon and room attendants (olive grove team were grumpy and rude). Lots of restaurant options. Great gym with lots of equipment The negatives - P&O are really cutting costs.. For example, no free ice cream by the pools, which most other ships have. The

We are experienced cruise goers (we go 3-4 times a year)Arvia is a beautiful ship but it is wasted on P&O.The food was bland and barely warm, the service is slow, the staff border on being rude- this is not how cruising should be.Our cabin was small and not clean. Sheets were not changed in 2 weeks - we were not surprised at all by an outbreak of a sickness bug as the cleanliness left
