Fourteen nights aboard P&O's Pacific Adventure, calling at three South Pacific islands and returning to Sydney. Base fare starts at £1,499pp — reasonable for a fortnight at sea, though you'll need to factor in flights and the all-inclusive drinks upgrade if you want it.

The deal

14-night roundtrip cruise from Sydney
Ports: Noumea (New Caledonia), Vanuatu, Lifou
Ship: Pacific Adventure
From £1,499pp (cabin only)
All-inclusive drinks package: £399pp extra
Flights to Sydney: approximately £800pp with Qantas (not included)
Adults-only areas onboard
Departures: October–April

Why we like it

You're looking at genuine value if you're already in Australia or don't mind the flight cost. Three island stops break up the voyage nicely, and the adults-only spaces mean you won't be drowning in screaming children during dinner. The drinks package at £399pp is transparent pricing — add it or skip it depending on your tolerance for cruise-ship bar bills.

The catch? You're paying roughly £800 return to get to Sydney unless you're Antipodean already. All-inclusive board isn't included in the base price, so budget accordingly. October–April is the right season for the South Pacific, so don't expect winter bargains.

How to book

Head to P&O Australia direct. You'll need to book flights separately unless you're bundling them — check what Qantas or other carriers offer on the Sydney route. Verify exactly what's bundled in your cabin price before you commit.
