Ventura, Northern Europe

4

Minor negative point - the size and choice of the buffet - not up to modern standards or suitable for the number of passengers on a full ship. Food in tge buffet was good quality though.
Positives:
- Main dining rooms - good breakfast and good quality evening meals (although very UK-centric).
- Plenty of bars and lounges with lots of comfortable seating - despite the 3000+ passengers embarked you could always find somewhere to sit.
- Not an issue for us but good to see excellent access/mobility considerations.
- Deluxe balcony room was huge - and accommodated 3 adults perfectly. Yes the bathroom sink was a bit tired but everything was spotless and worked well. Beds (including sofa bed) very comfortable.
- Ship interior is in good condition throughout (compared to certain other "older" ships of other lines) - no evidence of wear and tear/age.
- Decent variety and quality of activities and entertainment.
- Reasonable drinks prices.

Overall - we enjoyed our time on Ventura, good value for money, and our daughter enjoyed her first cruise experience. We would be happy to book another Ventura cruise.

Iona maiden voyage 7th August, one week no ports touring the UK. The weather was not good, not P&O fault but did detract as a UK based holiday. We had a new conservatory mini suite that was absolutely...
