Ventura Reviews

The weather for November was glorious! Ports were good , but have been before to most. But did enjoy trips at Madeira & Tenerife. Ship wasn't as good as others I been on but was ok

trips off site made easy by berthing so close to each town. 12 day trip with 5 days at sea, leisurely whilst on ship but food was good and plenty to do to relax and do whatever you wanted. We had an excellent superior delux with balcony and sat out regularly. Only downside was anytime dining was limited by available tables, otherwise good value for money

enjoyed all of it my only complaint was I have always used the gym in the mornings for some exercise classes but was very surprised to be told there would be a nominal charge for this but did not expect to pay £7 per session ,which I thought was a bit steep .

A nice ship.  We had a cabin with the balcony and separate sitting area which was well worth paying the extra  as we found the normal balcony cabin a bit cramped. Walk in wardrobe is always easy to access which is another nice feature.  Due to bad weather could not stop at Monte Carlo but still a very nice cruise.  Choice of shows each night is always a bonus, but lack of interesting lectures during the day definitely needs some attention.  Crew always helpful and a nice clean ship.  Feel the dress code needs to be upheld more as noticed some people took advantage.  A good cruise and would recommend.

The magic show called Astonishing was absolutely amazing! Dancers were superb as were the illusions and audience participation card trick. Highly recommend.

Great cruise lovely staff delicious food service with a smile

Best kids club. It sails out of Britain. Apart from these I would probably go with a different cruise line.

Just come back from a great week on Ventura around Spain and France. It’s my third time on this ship and it’s as good as ever. Roll on July for the Britannia

Loved it all from start to finish , a few concerns regarding H&S as no lifeguards and some parents not watching the children who were running and jumping in the pool - accident waiting to happen, and it did on this cruise, saying that I thought the ship was very clean and the staff are so happy and never seem to stop, always happy and busy. Excursions we went on were fantastic! Food on board was lovely and plentiful, hence bigger clothes when we got home lol. Loved it that much we booked again for next year on the same ship

I absolutely loved the cruise, I have not got any bad points about the whole experience, Ventura and its crew are amazing, the staff would do anything for you, so hard working and informative, the food was so fresh all cooked in front of you, some of the on board restaurants you could pay a surcharge but for fine dining it's all worth it, the cleaners are very informative and friendly, rooms cleaned thoroughly twice a day, the ship is cleaned every night the pools are emptied and cleaned after each cruise, the ship is maintained and painted 24 hours a day, I have enjoyed the experience that much I have re-booked to go on another cruise whilst on board.

Overall the experience was great and we couldn't fault the service and friendliness of the staff that we encountered. The spa was amazing and again the team in there were fabulous.

This was our first ever cruise, the Ventura is an excellent ship easily found our way around, room was great, dinning room (bay tree) and staff were brilliant. If you want to see any of the shows or get a seat in any of the venues you could be better off going do the earliest sittings

We loved every minute of our cruise from the days at sea to the mostly interesting ports that we visited. The food and entertainment were excellent

Absolutely fantastic. Loved every minute. The crew were amazing, apart from one security woman😡. Waiters Cedric and Dave made the restaurant service and atmosphere perfect. Felt really sad when we had to leave. Thank you P&O for the best holiday ever.

A fantastic cruise on an amazing ship! Very busy as the ship was at full capacity, but the food, drink, facilities and entertainment were absolutely brilliant. 4/5

Beautiful ship but weather not too good so could not take advantage of all she had to offer whilst Norway was beautiful it’s not for us prefer to follow the sun

This was our 1st cruise .everything went above and beyond our expectations

A fantastic cruise on a beautiful ship, to suit all ages,a great itinerary,happy,friendly crew

First time cruise and they say you either love or hate. Well I loved and will be going g next year

Unfortunately we couldn’t disembark in guernsey as the swell was too high
