Review summary

Excellent ship with excellent ports of call. Great.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Extremely friendly staff and we did not have to wait when arriving in Valletta Port to embark.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
We dined in the MDR, Plaza Buffet and Cafe Jardin. All were exceptional, great food and great service. We did not dine in the beach house as this venue is too casual for our liking.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
The lounging areas towards the front of the ship were quiet and peaceful. The entertainment team always do a British Sailaway however I find it a little bit too rowdy. The ballroom dancing with Roy and Andrea was great and the theatre shows were also acceptable.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Our cabin steward (Rose) was outstanding se was friendly and she always made our stateroom perfect. The reception team were friendly and helpful. Bar stewards and restaurant staff were also helpful.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The ship was extremely clean. The ship is elegant and offers a more traditional experience like other P&O liners (eg Oriana). The ship is elegant and it has a very pleasant atmosphere.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
We had a mini suite (b405). The stateroom was outstanding, clean and spacious. The bathroom was very elegant with a separate WC. The balcony is slightly narrow however it is quite wide as it is double fronted. Great service - daily canapés, champagne on arrival and chocolates on arrival.

Ship tip

Ensure that you take plasters, pain killers and deodorants as they are slightly more expensive.
