Our first cruise , amazing experience , excellent service , very clean and all staff couldn’t help enough. Fly cruise to the Caribbean. Prepaid excursions were well worth the money with excellent guides on the day. Unfortunately due to weather , one port stop had to be cancelled and P and O refunded the cost straight away . We upgraded to an outside cabin with balcony which was a blessing as the ...

Food of a good standard, ate in Oriental restaurant, thanks to both Soni and Danni both lovely, Beach House, Epicurian and glass House. Thank you to Sanjay our steward who did and amazing job. Brittania is off for a refit soon can wait ...
1st Cruise in 20 years, after reading some reviews we were a bit apprehensive but we so wrong , my advice is make up your own mind. From arriving at Glasgow Airport to embarking the Britannia, everything was very smooth. Embarked the ship and were greeted by staff who advised us how to find our cabin, reach cabin to be greeted by our Cabin Steward, a lot of reviews saying cabinscan ship were ...
Well after our last cruise on Britannia in June 23 we approached this cruise with some trepidation and more than once had thought of cancelling it prior to departure.
I am pleased to say that our fears were totally unfounded, and we had a fabulous first Caribbean cruise for the reasons below. Was it all perfect? No, but the positives definitely outweighed the ‘not so positives’.
The ...
First time cruisers and we had the best time. The ship is fabulous and our cabin was brilliant. It was a GC balcony on deck 9.
The booking system for restaurants worked fine and the food was magnificent.
The sunbed issue is irritating but we always found a chair.
There are some serious moaners about this ship but we are very well travelled and regret not cruising before, it wasn’t cheap ...
Cruising back to Barbados after a long stay in the UK is a wonderful way to relax after a hectic visit.
Arvia is a beautiful ship. The design and finishes are superb - modern and stylish but not too glitzy in the way that some cruise ships become an assault on the senses.
The quality of the food, entertainment and service on board was really good and the value for money was incredible. The ...
This was our 19th cruise having previously sailed with several lines including Celebrity, NCL and Disney. We have also sailed on P&O Ventura and Aurora, this time we were looking for a “replacement” holiday as we could no longer go to Disneyworld due to a back injury. The timings for a cruise on Arvia were perfect and P&O cruises are great value so we decided to take the plunge.

After cruising on Azura in January (excellent), I was excited to be on the PandO latest and she didn't disappoint. I didn't notice the more than 5,000 other passengers (we were fully loaded) but I'm glad I learnt from my January experience to pre-book EVERYTHING we wanted to do as soon as bookings opened. I am a planner by nature so this was great for me! We were worried about our cabin as we ...
Arvia is a fabulous ship with amazing staff , please do not listen to the constant moans & groans from the reviews .
The price you are paying for a 2 week break on this brilliant ship is far less than you will pay with any other cruise line , stop with the negatives p&o do not deserve them
Food in the main dining room was fine no complaints as was the food in the quays, keel & cow was ...
This was a last minute grabbed bargain to holiday on a new and very large cruise liner. We were not disappointed. Arvia is a lovely ship with a large number of bars and dining areas. We had a balcony cabin on deck 10 towards the front of the ship. The cabin although perhaps smaller than those we are familiar with, but adequate. Our main complaint was the noise of the toilets being flushed in the ...
