Small Friendly Ship

Reviewed By: McWilliam, Broughty Ferry, Dundee. Scotland on 2nd Dec 2008
Cruise Line: P&O Cruises Times cruised before: 10+
Cruise Ship: Artemis Sailed: June, 2008
Destination: North America Age: 65+
Cruising from Southampton on the Artemis, embarkation first class no waiting in lounge, cabin ready by 1pm. Our cruise was for 30days S/Hampton to S/Hampton. There were 18 sea days. The talks were all on gardening which were not of interest to us however there was 1 talk on the P@O ships which was very good and presented by the Chief Engineer. The Coral dining room which was the only restuarant on board which was club dining was excellent. We were second sitting table for two our choice, food and wine presentation was first class. The menu every evening was varied and something for all tastes, the head chef Andy Yuill and his staff did an excellent job. We have been on many cruises with P@O and other lines including cunard-transatlantic/">transatlantic/">Cunard QM2 on two occasions, and the food on the Artemis was as good if not better. Overall our time on Artemis was very enjoyable however the last eight sea days returning from Bar Harbor Maine was a bit monotonous as we had already done this on the way out. We have already booked another cruise on the Artemis in June for 15 days again for our Birthdays. We recommend the Artemis excellent ship not too big.
