Incredible holiday! Absolutely loved this cruise, as it being my first ever cruise, I found love for the first time and I was honestly so happy from day one. The ships entertainment, was absolutely spectacular! Loved every minute of it! My dream is to be a travel agent one day, and cruising is my favorite type of holiday as there is so much included. P&O had so much on the aria, they accommodated to everyone's liking. I am so cruising again!

When I boarded, there was NO food available in the buffet - as I had travelled from Tasmania at 4 a.m. I asked for a snack and was brought AN APPLE - I refused this and half an hour later received a satisfactory salad sandwich. This was the only bad point.

The pacific Jewel is not as luxurious as other ships we have been on.We found the public areas extremly cold including the dinning rooms this made dressing up for formal nights difficult.The choice for duty free drinks was limited,and the pillows were very lumpy and uncomfortable. The crew as usual was very friendly and helpful and the shows were excellent by far the best we have seen.Embarkation and disembarkation were very smooth. We really liked that tipping was not compulsory .On the whole it was a great cruise but we prefer cruising with Princess cruises.

All staff we came into contact with were very friendly and went that extra mile to make sure we had a great trip. The food was very good. We also paid for Chef's table which was worth every cent we spent on it. We would definitely do this again. I think the photos are way overpriced, if they were half the price a lot more would be sold. We loved the ship and really enjoyed our time on it. We were onboard for New Years Eve and we had a fantastic party on deck.

You will never get an all inclusive holiday, like a cruise offers, anywhere else. Big applause to all involved

Great first cruise. The Salt Grill restaurant was exquisite. The room was ok. We had problems with the air conditioning in three cabins. It was so hot for the entire cruise we had great difficulty getting to and staying asleep due to the heat. Entertainment was fantastic - Pacific Cirque - are incredible. The stage performances were wonderful. Drinks were reasonably priced. Great activities catering for a variety of ages, including an excellent kids club. Staff were very helpful!

Our prefer cruise line is Princess as we find it a little more relaxing, but would like the movies shown on the big screen, to be shown incubin TV as well as outside is to cold and noisy.
