Given the bargain price we paid for our outside oceanview twin, this cruise was just about acceptable. Nothing to shout home about. Nice ship with a dreadful theatre ... more like a show lounge than theatre, though! It offered lacklustre entertainment. Noticeable cutbacks, particularly in the size of meals. It was our first cruise when steak was never on the menu ... just a side order which had to be paid for! Shame on you P&O. Cabin service had to be paid for. Not happy with being turfed out of our cabin at 6.30am on the final day. Had we been paying full fare for this Island Hopper I would have certainly felt ripped off. Must praise Aria for the way she handled three days of very rough seas ... so rough in fact we had to abandon two of our scheduled ports. Our cabin, 4174, was quite cheery and bright. Plenty of wardrobe space and drawers. Hand-held shower and bath. Would I go again? Yes .... at the fare we paid.
Bright and cheerful. No fridge or free drinking water.
