In this video I review my Balcony Cabin on P&O Iona: cabin 5438 on Deck 5. At first the cabin looked great, with modern décor, good facilities, and plenty of space for a solo traveller. Although it’s actually a 4-berth balcony cabin, it felt slightly smaller than balconies in other parts of the ship and I think it could feel quite tight for four people.
However, my stay in this cabin didn’t go quite to plan. Being low down on Deck 5 meant the balcony view was often obstructed when in port, limiting the sea views. The biggest issue though was constant loud banging from the Coffee Shop above during the day, and a loose storm door outside the cabin that slammed whenever the ship moved at night.
With all the noise, it definitely wasn’t the most restful cabin experience… and eventually P&O decided to move me to a new cabin during the cruise. In this video I show the cabin, the balcony, the layout, and explain exactly what went wrong and why I had to move.
