P&O Cruises Arvia
First time with P&O. Very slick transfer from Barbados airport to ship. Chose to fly premium economy which is a good idea as off first when landing. Cabin was balcony one which was very good but the bed was so close to wardrobe you could hardly open it. Cases were not delivered very quickly. Boarded at 4 and got cases at 10. First meal in main dining room wasn’t too great but got better. Loved Epicurean and Sindhi restaurant. Entertainment was ok. Some were very good others were dated. Loved Divas and Cher tribute. Tommy J. The juggler was very good but the comedienne was poor. Liked the days in the Caribbean and the six day crossing was good. Weather was good but very windy so rarely used the pool. Used the adult pool all the time and no trouble with sunbeds. Dining staff were ok but never looked very happy. Room attendant was very good. Loved having the free laundry and managed to most of our washing before we got home. Just had to provide washing materials.

Reviews The ship was too big for us.
The ship was too big for us.
The room was excellent. it took us over a week to properly book a table for when we wanted to eat at night.There were two people at the point of booking,one the man was very good and tried to help when he could.The other a female was one of the most horrid people I have ever met on a cruise liner.Basically the ship was too big. To say I wont be going back is an understatement.

Reviews OK but nothing exceptional

Chosen because of itinerary and more days on land than at sea. Had been on this ship more than 10 years ago. Ship recently refurbished so looks very smart. Balcony cabin more spacious than other P&O ships. Food generally good in main dining rooms though getting a table for 2 very difficult unless you are prepared for a long wait. Entertainment good, itinerary excellent (Santander is recommended, not often on itineraries). Ship had to have a deep clean so boarding was late but didn't detect high levels of sickness, just keep away from the buffet and Jacuzzis! On the whole, good value and the only gripe was missing out on Guernsey with a day at sea instead. As there was warning that this would probably happen there was disgruntlement among the passengers that there appeared to be no effort made to find a substitute port of call.
