P&O Cruises Arvia
We booked for the first time on P&O Arvia Easter holidays for 2 weeks around the med. 2 adults and a 6 year old. Balcony cabin. Our cabin was a tad noisy, we found the issue after a couple of nights and sorted it out ourselves. We were on the 9th floor and good location. the ship is beautiful. We have been on the Iona and absolutely loved it so we thought it would be similar. Far from it. Too crowded but it was the school holidays. We had booked a few speciality restaurants before we boarded . The worst being the beach house, service was awful and the food. The sindhu was amazing just like on the Iona . Well worth booking and we highly recommend this restaurant. The Epicurean was just as amazing and would definitely book this one again. MDRs were great also. As you can order as much as you like as many dishes as you like and our little one ate off the adult menu as kids menu wasn’t great. All other free restaurant are great including the buffet we found to be as good. Kids club is amazing, our little one didn’t want to come out of there. She loved it and the staff are absolutely fantastic. You need to book early the morning before for the next day. All stops were great and visited some lovely destinations. Would we book again with P&O? Yes we would. Definitely wouldn’t book the Arvia again especially school holidays. But will definitely book the Iona and other family ships . It’s one of our favourite cruise lines.

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.
