Review summary

Great value for money. We will not hesitate go on board. Our first with P&O cruise was fantastic.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Well organized. Didn't take more than 45mins from baggage drop off until actual boarding.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
There were quite a few free dining restaurants that include buffet style dining in Horizon. Plenty to choose from. No hassle in standing in the queue as the My Holiday App lets you book your restaurant and join virtual queue. Great choice of food as well.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Plenty to spend your time onboard. Music, sounds and digital effects are wonderful.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
A lot to choose from. My favourite was Headliners theatre. Club house was another place where resident band pulse play music and dancing every night.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Very kind and professional.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
A massive ship with a lot of cabin space. We chose a cabin with a window. Superb view. King size bed with plenty of space and wardrobes for your clothing. We used the space underneath the bed to store our luggage. Cleaning Is done daily basis. No issues at all.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Cabin is very specious. Toilet and shower cubicle is spacious. Shower gel, shampoo and hand washing liquid is provided with towels. Pretty clean.

Ship tip

It's a beautiful ship with plenty of space and loads of choices of restaurants to choose from and entertainment activities in abundance.

Disembarkation

Arranged very well. Each cabin in one deck given specific timing to disembark. When we came out, our baggages were ready at a place with your deck number to be collected on your way out of the terminal.

Thanks for your review. We are aiming on her in a couple of weeks. Will be integrating to see how she compared to other P&O ships

We can’t wait till the 10th September, my birthday, when we get onboard the Iona for the 1st time. Had two cruises with P&O Britannia before Covid and loved them, this could be even better, cases are out , starting to put things together, getting excited
