P&O Ventura: 10 Things I Loved… and 10 Things I Hated

Ventura. A ship so spectacularly middle-of-the-road it should come with hazard lights. Nobody’s favourite… but nobody’s worst nightmare either. In this video, I put P&O’s beige battlecruiser through its paces and reveal ten things I genuinely loved onboard… and ten things that made me question every life choice that led me to the North Sea in November. From the spaces that shouldn’t work but somehow do, to the things that really shouldn’t exist on a functional cruise ship in 2026… it’s all here. The good, the bad, and the absolutely what-the-hell-is-that. If you’ve sailed Ventura before, get ready to nod along, or argue in the comments and I'll tell you why you are wrong. If you haven’t… well… consider this your public service announcement. Here, ladies and gentlemen… WE GO!
