Description
Ventura is one of the largest cruise ships in the P&O Cruises fleet. Ventura is where you’ll find an incredible choice of facilities from bars, restaurants, a sports court, spa and theatre. Plus Ventura also has a number of exciting features that are exclusively hers.
Ventura’s signature restaurant is The White Room by none other than Marco Pierre White himself. But there are also 11 other restaurants to tempt you including a tapas bar, a stunning Asian restaurant and a choice of Club Dining - the same table at the same time each evening, and Freedom Dining - no fixed seating or dining times.
Ventura is a highly entertaining cruise ship. A theatre with full production shows doubles as a cinema, she has two lounges for cabaret, tributes, comedy and dancing and even Metropolis, an amazing bar with a panoramic video wall brought to life by a different city skyline each evening. She also has great sports facilities, a well equipped gym and spa, a large sports court and 4 pools (one with a retractable roof).
In fact, a Ventura cruise is very family-friendly. In addition to fantastic children’s clubs and a play area for under 2s, Noddy and Mr. Bump from the Mr. Men Show are regular visitors. She even has a 24 hour buffet restaurant so the only routines you need to keep are your own.

“Ventura - Fantastic Cruise !”
Mr Paul Young visited on 08/08 and recommended this ship.
Our first cruise and the P&O Ventura and all her crew were fantastic in every way.
Nothing was too much trouble for our cabin attendant, Imran and alos our Head Waiter Sergio.
We were in an inside cabin on A deck but spent very little time in the cabin so a window / balcony was not neccesary for us.
Entertainment was very varied in the evenings and as good as I have seen in the West End.
We ate in the Saffron Restaurant and found the food delicious and the service second to none.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Ventura to all my firends and family and have already booked up for 2009 !
“Pre Xmas cruise 2010”
Mr Scott Robinson visited on 12/10 and recommended this ship.
First of all thanks to cruise nation for constant contact prior to flights due to gatwick closure, now down to the cruise, Ventura is a beautiful ship, the staff were as you would expect and service was as good as any five star facility, the rooms were compact fortunately we had a balcony which gave us somewhere to chill in privacy, the captain should have been on the stage as he was by far the best entertainment on the ship, the on board entertainment was no where up to normal, even when some of the acts reached the ship that were delayed they weren't anywhere near as good as our previous cruises, the ship should look at it's smoking policy as on numerous occasions when sat on the balcony we had cigerette smoke come across our noses, and considering we were on riviera deck we thought we would be out of the way as well as the constant wheeling of trolleys in the waterside restaurant above us creating noise through the cabin at all times of the night. The middle two pools was like a smoke haze on the starboard side, and in some cases would infiltrate in to the waterside restaurant whist you were having lunch.
We dined in the white room and East restaurants and both experiences were worth the additional cost, however the food in the bay tree restaurant was also very good. Photographs seem to be expensive in relation to other lines and no bulk buy packages were available for the whole cruise.
Butlins seemed to exist in the main pool, but that is a personal observation and that's what some people go on holiday for, just not me, fortunately there were a couple of other pools that were quieter. Overall the ship with 3500 people on board was cramped, especially at meal times and trying to get a sun bed, as with other lines they should police these as then it stops possible passenger confrontations and then people will not take the Mick out of leaving towels on beds for hours, the ship was very well kept and luxurious in public meeting areas such as bars and clubs on board, I wouldn't be quick to return on board the Ventura.
