The overall service was great. Staff were very friendly and attentive. Made you feel welcome on the ship. Felt very spoilt having our room looked after twice a day. Didn’t get to experience all restaurants and entertainment this time round, but kids were happy. Kids club sign up recommended if you have children. Caters to all ages. Tangalooma island day trip was fun. Experienced Segway and quad biking. So much fun. Were affected by rough seas towards last day and a half. Our room being a mini suite was located towards back of ship, so felt the rocking when seas got rough. If u suffer sea sickness, would recommend you ask for room located towards centre of ship. Would recommend Moreton Island short cruise if you’re just after a short getaway... without worrying about passport hassle.

One of the best Holidays we’ve had. You can do as much or little as you please. The food in the Pantry, was your everyday cuisines. Average. The other restaurants were upmarket cuisine and not your everyday restaurant menu. You have plenty of choice throughout the whole ship for choice of food. If you can’t find anything you like, then I’d say your extremely fussy. The waterfront restaurant had the best breakfast. 99.8% of staff are exceptional. You could not ask for better service. The captain will not risk anyone’s life to attend an island if he feels it is unsafe. We missed mystery island, we were quite happy to have missed the rough seas in the tender boat that day. Staff don’t speak English so well, so be very very careful of the “Spa “ staff. I was caught out and felt very scammed by them, left me upset for a few days. When they say “free” does not mean “free” even when you ask four times to confirm. That would be my only bad taste, that I would never give my business to again. We had deck 9 in the middle. Absolutely the best cabin available. No window, and that was fine as we hardly spent any time in the room. 15year old son met other children through the kids club. He did say, something’s were a bit young for him. My 16 year old son, was very bored. Not a lot to do for 16/17 year olds. As I saw other kids the same age seeming to be in the same situation. Must do,, Lifou,, Jinket Bay. Make sure you book on cruise control as spots are limited. Port villa, Vanuatu, we loved Hideaway island, and posted a post card to the underwater post office, great for snorkelling. Loved the markets right at the dock. And our tour guide organised through FB was Bountiful Tours, private tour was fantastic. Isle of pines, we didn’t see any fish or coral here. Maybe a tour would take you somewhere to see the turtles etc. Nouméa, we did double decker bus through FB. Great tour. But maybe look at doing it early and then squeeze another different tour in the afternoon. If time allows.

We had a fantastic time. Food was great, entertainment was fantastic and everyone who works on the ship were very friendly and helpful

The balcony cabin was great. The staff were fabulous, the food and drink was to die for! The shows amazing! However.......the smell of sewage was horrendous! It was wafting round that ship! It was in our room of a night! That God we had a balcony door we could keep open!! P&O need to clean up the stench!!!! This was our first cruise and we have been told the smell isn't on other ships!
