Ventura is one of the largest cruise ships in the P&O Cruises fleet. Ventura is where you'll find an incredible choice of facilities from bars, restaurants, a sports court, spa and theatre. Plus Ventura also has a number of exciting features that are exclusively hers.
Ventura's signature restaurant is The White Room by none other than Marco Pierre White himself. But there are also 11 other restaurants to tempt you including a tapas bar and restaurant, a stunning Asian restaurant and a choice of Club Dining - the same table at the same time each evening, and Freedom Dining - no fixed seating or dining times.
Ventura is a highly entertaining cruise ship. A theatre with full production shows doubles as a cinema, she has two lounges for cabaret, tributes, comedy and dancing and even Metropolis, an amazing bar with a panoramic video wall brought to life by a different city skyline each evening. She also has great sports facilities, a well equipped gym and spa, a large sports court and 4 pools (one with a retractable roof).
In fact, a Ventura cruise is very family-friendly. In addition to fantastic children's clubs and a play area for under 2s, Noddy and Mr. Bump from the Mr. Men Show are regular visitors. She even has a 24 hour buffet restaurant so the only routines you need to keep are your own.

With Club Dining you'll enjoy the special ambience and sociable atmosphere of the main dining room, as well as silver-service and a five-course menu (six-course on Gala Nights). This style of dining is a wonderful way to share your holiday experiences and meet new friends.
By choosing Club Dining you’re opting for the cruising tradition of set sitting times. The same table will be reserved for you and your table companions every night for first or second sitting, at 6.30pm or 8.30pm. You simply need to request your sitting preference when you book and we’ll inform you of your table number, sitting and restaurant with a card in your stateroom when P&O Cruises welcomes you on board.
Select Dining is wonderfully flexible, allowing you a change of scene and the opportunity to dine with different people. This is a great way to add variety to your holiday, if you wish to dine earlier or later than usual, celebrate a special occasion or enjoy an intimate meal for two. Please note that a Select Dining cover charge applies.
Ventura's theatre will be located forward on Deck 7 and span two decks. West End-style shows and cabaret will light up her technologically advanced stage, though this flexible venue offers far more besides.
In the theatres on a P&O Cruises superliner you will find some of the most lavish and spectacular shows at sea. There are compilations of West End and Broadway shows, as well as tributes to well known stars.
The on board cinemas show classic feature films and recent releases – many of which are shown months before they are released in the UK. You can easily imagine you are attending an indulgent premiere at one of London’s top movie theatres!
Ventura will house an impressive art collection. Comprising over 7,000 works of art specifically commissioned from some 55 artists, she will showcase the very best of modern British art. Interactive and fun, her collection will encourage you to linger awhile. On board there will be contemporary art on canvas in every cabin, plus a series from a selected British artist in each of the three stair towers. There will also be numerous, exciting commissions for the many public rooms. So, wherever you are here on the ship, you will find inspiring views and wonderful artworks to stimulate the eye.
The whole family can enjoy all the fun of the circus on Ventura. Learn to juggle, walk on stilts, acro-balance and swing from the flying trapeze at her contemporary circus school or experience the sensation of bouncing high above the open deck and the ocean on her bungee trampolines.
Gymnasium
The gymnasium is fully equipped with all the latest Technogym equipment and trained fitness instructors will be there to give guidance where needed. Personal Trainers are available to tailor bespoke fitness programs to help you reach your fitness goals.
Like to keep on the move? Ventura's sports court is the place to go for a spot of five-aside, tennis, cricket or basketball. Located atop the ship on Sport Deck, children and teenagers can burn some excess energy, while adults might take part in activities such as Tai Chi and outdoor aerobics.
There is a pool with a protective skydome. There are splash pools for simply cooling off in, paddling pools for young children to play in (with supervision of course), whirlpool spas for relaxing in, pools to play pool games in and then there are pools long enough and deep enough to exercise in.
Is Lady Luck smiling on you? Stop into the sumptuous casinos and try your luck. In P&O Cruises casinos you’ll find the latest in the world of slot machines. There’s also Three Card Poker, Texas Hold ‘Em poker, Blackjack, Bingo and, of course, Roulette, one of the oldest and most popular games of chance.
If you haven’t played before don’t worry, you can join in the fun and informative gaming lessons. During these interactive sessions you can learn valuable tips and information to make your playing more enjoyable and possibly more profitable.
Visit Havana, Ventura's Cuban themed nightclub, for all the passion and exuberance of Latin America. This venue will be found on Deck 7 aft.
This will be the place to party into the night. With a stage and dance floor you might dance to a live band or DJ, take part in some karaoke, or enjoy some late night cabaret.
This vibrant venue will get livelier as the night progresses. Order a mojito, let your hair down and get your feet moving to those salsa rhythms.
The Tamarind Club
The rich fabrics and colours of the Indian subcontinent provide the inspiration for Ventura's Tamarind Club on Promenade Deck. Imperial and exotic touches will combine to create an element of escapism and opulence.
A wonderful setting for comedy and live music, this venue will provide a memorable night. Listening to the comedians centre stage, you can soak up the jovial atmosphere and revel in great company and entertainment.
Metropolis, the coolest bar at sea, is situated here. By day this will be an obserbation lounge, by night cool jazz and sensational cityscapes provide the entertainment.
Ramblas
Named after the historic avenue in Barcelona, Ramblas will be Ventura’s wine and tapas bar on Deck 7. A great place to soak up the atmosphere, meet for a drink, listen to live music and have a bite to eat.
Dark wood, decorative arches and the sound of a Spanish guitar will ensure you are transported to the back streets of Barcelona. While an extensive wine collection and enticing tapas dishes enhance the experience still further.
You will be able to pick up a light lunch here or enjoy a sociable, informal evening meal. Great for sharing, Ramblas is certain to be a favourite for those who love impromptu, informal dining. A separate and slightly more formal area will offer more substantial tapas, paella and seafood at a modest charge.
