Arvia is all about luxury. Swim-up bars, infinity pools and the retractable SkyDome. Take some time out in The Retreat, a private deck where you can relax in style. If you're looking for excitement, Keel and Cow offers a gastropub experience out on the high seas, while The Club House becomes the party centre of the ship at night.
Had a wonderful holiday aboard Arvia. The ship is magnificent. Food and entertainment was outstanding. Loads to do throughout the day. Service was really good. Choice of bars and restaurants is really good. Balcony Cabin was really nice and had plenty of space. Really enjoyed Brodies bar and the casino. All the restaurants were really nice and I would recommend them all. Any issues- Obviously If you want a sunbed around the pool, you need to be up early, but there is loads of sunbeds around the ship. If you go to the buffet at 9.30 it’s going to be busy . I never had any problem just turning up to the main dining room and getting seated straight away though. Sometimes there could be a wait for lifts. If a certain area of the ship was busy, there might be a wait for drinks, but that was never too bad. All in all for me and my family , we had a brilliant time on this new modern ship .
We have sailed on Arvia before and didn't have a great experience, we said we wouldn't sail on her again, but! we did, and this time round had a much better experience. There is one thing a lot of people complain about and that is lack of sun beds & chairs, we found that if you want to sit round a pool then you have no chance as most have had towels and personal belongings laid on them and nobody to be seen. To be honest if you are a couple traveling with no children there are plenty beds all over the ship just not beside a pool, although, there are showers and whirl pools that you can dip in and out of. The activities are geared up for people with children and quiz and bingo lovers, but there were things that you could do or try out if you wanted to. The ship was always clean, most of the staff were helpful and friendly. We had a balcony cabin which had a large balcony and a standard room size, we found no problem with the storage space as we took packing cubes and space saving hangers with us, the only down fall is that there are no drawers in the room, the cabin steward (called Wish) was very good. We are vegetarian and have never really had a good experience with any cruise line but this time every meal all but one was either very good or excellent so we have no complaints about food. As for the entertainment I think this is where things fall a bit flat, 2 years ago we saw all the same shows that Headliners put on and also the George Michael tribute act, the things that we hadn't seen were not so good apart from the magician who did two different shows and they were good so, I think that this is a bit of a let down and when you see people walking out of shows in the theatre or not laughing at the comedienne then P & O need to look at this. Embarkation was very good and disembarkation was even more slick and on point, no problems. All in all the cruise was very good, the ship was very good, the food was very good. I can't offer a review of the drinks package or the internet package as we don't use these, we do drink but not enough to warrant a package and we tend to like having a few weeks away from using smart phones constantly. The shops onboard were the usual, but I have never seen so many watch shops onboard a cruise ship....
