Review summary

Was apprehensive about being a family ship but with only 178 under 18's on board - apart from a couple of them being a nuisance - it was a great experience.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

Excellent - though did try to avoid the buffet!

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Gave 5 stars bur did not participate in them - if we wanted to there was a great selection to choose from.

Excellent but P&O can never get the volume of music to singing right, otherwise would have been 5*

Service and Staff

Had the best Cabin Steward ever!

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
some areas need looking at - chair pads in MDR are worn and uncomfortable, furnishings in cabin - threadbare.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Great apart from the chairs needing attention - threadbare and fraying.
