Cruises and Cruise Ships: P&O Pacific Encounter 29th Oct 2024, 4 nights

Overall, awful! 

1. Staff - At times, lacklustre service. Score 6/10 
2. Room- overall quite good. Score 7/10 
3. Food - overall disappointing. 6/10 
4. The specialty restaurants were underwhelming. The MDR had a low ceiling that seemed to amplify noise, while the food was ordinary at best. Ice cream anyone? Not unless you are willing to pay. Burger? Same. Pizza? Same. Score 4/10 
5. Safety - all seemed ok with no noticeable danger points or defects. Score 8/10 
6. Entertainment - overall underwhelming. A couple of good performers that popped up now and then in the jazz bar, but otherwise lacklustre unless you paid extra. 4/10 
7. Enrichment seminars - non-existent. Score 0/10 
8. Communication - not present. Score 0/10 

Overall, this cruise and its leadership scored 4/10. We would absolutely never travel on this ship again!
