Britannia Reviews
View Cruise DealsExcellent cruise. Good ports apart from St Vincent. Good food in main restaurants and speciality restaurants. Good service. Good flights.
Great ship , amazing food only disappointment was entertainment very disappointed compared to other years
We enjoyed our break away in the Winter sun of the Carribbean. Having had a very stressful year and no real break it was good to relax unwind and see some other islands. We had a lot of fun meeting other people on the Cruise and be some good friends with another couple whilst been away. The Ships staff were all really good and knew their jobs very well. Customer Service was excellent. Food was also very good and portions sufficient in the main restaurants. Thankfully the weather was as expected for our trip which made for an enjoyable time. We would definitely go back to the Caribbean for another holiday. Thank you P&O for a Great Holiday.
Very impressive seamless check in/ through transport arrangements. Bags arrived in cabin with no aorport hassle. Brittania is a very nice, well run ship. However it is very difficult to navigate, and quite confusing. Restaurant food mand service very good. Entertainment patchy.
We found that there were too many black tie nights 4 in total. Due to the limited number of restaurants available to eat on these nights the only options are to eat in the buffet which is like a canteen or to pay for 2 restaurants. One was the Beach House which was located in the canteen which we booked on one of the nights. The food was nothing special and we got a refund due to the quality. There was no atmosphere and the setting was awful. The other option was the Glass House which again you have to pay for which was ok. The entertainment was awful the on board entertainment team were shocking. Out of tune and not entertaining. The room was lovely and the staff were nice. Wouldn’t go again on this ship.
We did have a bit of a flood from the toilet in our room. This was dealt with very efficiently by the cabin staff. This was followed up by a visit from the housekeeping steward. He offered us another balcony cabin to sleep in fir 2-3 nights until carpets were completely dried, and compensated us with extra on board spend. Apart from this the whole cruise was absolutely amazing and cant fault every member of staff who can't do enough for you. This is our 3rd year running on Brittania and unfortunately will have to do it next year on Arvia as no flights from Newcastle on Brittania. I am sure we will still have no confidence.
Cruise around the Carribean in January for some Winter sun. Each Island was unique but all had amazing beaches and a warm welcome. We were well looked after on board good food, great service and varied entrertainment. The atmosphere was lovely and relaxed, staff brilliant. A great holiday
We enjoyed our cruise on Britannia because of the islands we visited as for the ship she is looking rather tired especially the cabins . . Also food in the Horizon buffet needs to be much better . The entertainment on some nights in the theatre was terrible . Waiter service in the bars needs improvement . I think other cruise lines are much better .
We tried brittania little disappointed by the ship itself, just not as clean as other ships we had been on We loved our holiday but little things were missing : windows so dirty throughout the ship, Lift glass always dirty generally just not up there Staff helpful but bar staff miserable very busy but not welcoming the waiters are superb The restaurant staff were good odd few not very that friendly, no sunbeds on sea days and loads of towels laid out before 6 am and then they don't come till 10. 30 staff managing this start too late in the morning to sort this! Lifts terrible wait at least 10 mins every time Ship looks and feels old again compared to others we have been on Unfortunately would not go on her again but will continue to cruise. Never felt assured by P&O about complaints. Everyone has different views and this is mine The headliners theatre team was amazing what an incredible team and their shows were amazing and always full house
Had an unforgettable experience on Britannia for new year. We really enjoyed ourselves. Facilities and ports of call did not disappoint. Everything was in order and anything that wasn’t was dealt with appropriately and professionally. Cant wait to book our next cruise, Thank you to everyone involved from waiters to captain well done. Hope to see you all again very soon.
