P&o arvia reviews

We had a great holiday to the Caribbean on Arvia. So good that we've booked to go again in two years' time. This was our first cruise and we had a wonderful time sailing on Arvia around the Caribbean. We loved the ship and we will definitely be booking more cruises going forward. The Arvia is a beautiful ship with lots of amenities, dining rooms and entertainment but in my opinion it is too big and I prefer the smaller ships. The staff were brilliant and worked very hard and it was lovely to hear the captains quote of the day, which made me laugh each evening. I loved some of the restaurants, ie. The Meridian, Zenith and the Olive Grove, but found it very difficult to get into some of the other restaurants as they were always booked up, which was very disappointing as I was looking forward to trying other restaurants. I have actually booked another. Caribbean cruise next year but sailing on the Britannia as I really enjoyed most of the islands and it was fantastic to get away from the English winter. We were in balcony cabin would prefer a cabin higher up as we were over club house and could hear the bass of the music well into 2am in the morning. Our cabin attendant was excellent. Food really good. We booked 2 excursions the one in Dominican Republic was to a complex which was changed to seascape hotel and not the bahia principle as advertised and not that good.

Nicknamed the "Sunshine Ship", it's been designed to sail in warm climes -- winter in the Caribbean, summer in the Mediterranean. Arvia is sister ship to Iona which launched in But despite the two 5,passenger cruise ships being structurally nearly identical, Arvia is by no means a carbon copy of Iona. The popularity of these amenities, however, has introduced some congestion to the top deck's wake pool area which tends to get crowded early on in the day. Thankfully the roof above its Sky Dome has been designed to retract, giving top decks an extra outdoor swimming pool. Inside there are differences, too.

At the heart of Arvia's deck plan is the all-new and lighter Grand Atrium with three-storey glass walls filling the space with bright, widescreen sea views. For families there's a new submarine-themed "Escape Room" experience called Mission Control. Thanks to the retractable roof on Arvia's Sky Dome, there are now four outdoor pools five if you count the swim-up bar staggered across the ship's top three decks, as well as a splash zone on Deck

We chose this cruise as the dates and itinerary fitted our circumstances, however we would not choose a ship this big again unless the itinerary was fantastic. We only booked at 2 weeks notice and were very disappointed to find that most of the popular shore excursions were already sold out, and that those available cannot be bought with onboard spend allowance prior to boarding, a conversation with P and O customer services about this was very abrupt. Embarkation at Southampton and car parking was excellent, we arrived in the terminal exactly on time and were in our cabin 35 minutes later bit surprised that only passports and boarding passes were checked and not the health insurance, EHIC or Covid certificates. Cabins were OK but surprisingly small for a big ship and lacked any drawers and we were unable to fully unpack never had this before on a cruise, even on smaller ships. Internet costs are very high, on previous cruises we have bought internet time e. On the plus side, wifi coverage was excellent across the ship. Read more.

Who can resist the sun-soaked glamour of the new swim-up bar? You will have to work at being bored. Passenger to Crew Ratio:. Book the speciality restaurants before you go. Towel animal. Second day was excellent. One is the included 6th Street Diner -- a hugely popular all-American diner with a gourmet Southern twist. Would definitely sail on Arvia again with a similar itinerary. I can say we had a wonderful holiday. Read full review.
