Great information of requirements pre-boarding, and as usual the process from plane at Barbados to ship was very slick. Not having to clear immigration and collect luggage on arrival is always a great bonus with P&O in the Caribbean.
Guest levels were lower than pre-COVID as we expected, but despite this we had a great time. Staff were excellent and service was great, particularly in buffet and dining rooms. Yes we felt perhaps food choice was a little more limited, but quality was always there, food was hot when it should be and we always found something to eat that we enjoyed. Loved the table service in bars, so much better than crowds at the bar and their drink prices are reasonable.
Public areas were better than when we were last on board immediately before lockdown, cabin also, and there was lots of new deck furniture too.
We didn’t do any shore excursions, so marked on previous experience, they were good when we did them but marked down just because you can do them so much cheaper independently in the Caribbean.
We could not fault anything on this cruise, and value for money it certainly was.
