After a routine dry dock in Singapore, Pacific Adventure returned to service for P&O Cruises Australia with several new upgrades.
According to the company, the 2,600-passenger ship now features a new audio system, in addition to a new photo viewing area and new family cabanas at the Byron Beach Club.
Available for rental, private cabins include a TV, fan and lights, free water and snacks, bar fridge, and on-demand service for additional amenities.
The Byron Beach Club has also benefited from new accessible toilets on Deck 16 and 41 sun-protected four-poster daybeds.
The Pacific Adventure also saw the replacement of more than 15,000 square meters of carpet, the addition of 3,700 square meters of new turf around the main pool and 3,000 square meters of new paint and wall coverings.
While public restrooms have undergone repairs throughout the ship, Pacific Adventure's cabins have also been updated.
The Grand Suite, for example, received new and improved furniture and carpets. All bedrooms have also seen new mirrors, in addition to sofa bed repairs.
Originally built for Princess Cruises as the Golden Princess, the Pacific Adventure first entered service in 2001.
Transferred to P&O Cruises Australia during pandemic service pause, the 2,600-guest ship welcomed its first guests to the Antipodes at the end of October 2022.
Sailing from Sydney all year round, Pacific Adventure offers cruises of three to 15 nights to various destinations in Australia, New Zealand and the South Pacific Islands.
In addition to short cruises to Moreton Island and South Australia, the ship is expected to offer the “Pacific Island Hopper” itinerary in April.
Visiting New Caledonia and Vanuatu, the nine-night cruise includes visits to Nouméa, Lifou and Mystery Island.
Pacific Adventure is also scheduled to visit Tasmania this month as part of a four-night cruise including a stopover in Hobart.
