Ventura - P&O World Cruises

Step aboard Ventura, one of P&O Cruises' most celebrated ships, where luxury meets adventure on the high seas. With its impressive length and capacity, this Grand-class vessel offers an unforgettable cruising experience tailored to every traveler. Whether you seek relaxation in serene adults-only spaces or vibrant family activities, Ventura caters to all tastes with its decks of world-class amenities. From Mediterranean escapes to Nordic adventures, this ship promises breathtaking views and unmatched comfort at speeds of up to 23.2 knots.

Ventura’s facilities are designed for indulgence and entertainment. Guests can unwind in five swimming pools, including one with a retractable Skydome roof, perfect for any weather. The Oasis Spa provides rejuvenating treatments, while sports enthusiasts can enjoy golf nets, table tennis, and shuffleboard. For nightlife lovers, the ship boasts a casino, nightclubs, and three show lounges featuring live performances. Art aficionados will appreciate the onboard exhibitions curated in partnership with Tate Modern. With better Wi-Fi coverage across the ship, staying connected has never been easier

Dining aboard Ventura is a culinary journey like no other. Choose from three main dining rooms—Saffron, Cinnamon, and Bay Tree—offering gourmet international cuisine and Marco Pierre White’s Gala Menus on formal nights. Specialty venues such as Sindhu serve Indian fusion dishes, while The Epicurean delights with modern British fare. Casual options include the Poolside Grill and Sundaes Ice Cream for family-friendly treats. Wine lovers can explore pairings at The Glass House by Olly Smith.

Families will find Ventura a haven for kids of all ages. Camp Ocean offers age-specific activities like scavenger hunts and pool parties for younger children. Teens can chill at Club O2 or Circle C with video games and dance parties. Parents can enjoy evenings out while kids participate in Night Owls’ supervised fun until late hours. With Ventura’s diverse offerings, every family member is guaranteed an unforgettable vacation.
