Just returned from a fantastic 17nt cruise around the med!Oriana is the the third P&O ship that I have travelled on the others being AURORA & OCEANA and in my opinion probably the best.The food and service in the Peninsular restaurant was 2nd to none,we did try Oriana Rhodes, although very good, it was no better than ships main dining restaurants. The kids clubs were well run with plenty of activities to keep the children happy day and night.
The evening entertainment included 8 musical exstravaganzas provided by the excellent Headliners who are the resident entertainers on Oriana.The resident band Natural High were also of a high standard.
The ship is very clean and very well maintained. The staff are friendly and very helpful.
The cabins although on the small side were more than adequate and managed to accomadate four of us with no problem.
My only complaint would be that the trips that they had orgainised for the younger passengers ( water parks) were all cancelled.
The ports we visited were all very good with Sorrento and Dubrovnik being the best.
I would recommend Oriana and P&O to anyone young or old , as there is something for everyone!
