Review summary

The cruise was fantastic- a great ship and interesting ports of call.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Very efficient. We only had to wait around 45 minutes in the terminal.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
The food was amazing throughout the cruise, it was well presented and fresh. We had set dining and the waiter tailored the service to our personal preferences which added to the great dining experience.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
The covered pool was very accessible during the cruise (Baltic) however due to weather the outdoor pool was a little bit cold. We used the spa a couple of times which was well worth the money, fantastic service both times, the spa is very spacious on Arcadia. We managed to have a couple of games of deck quoits during the cruise.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
As always the entertainment on Arcadia is very good, there were several singers which were all superb. The stage shows were also great in the evenings.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The staff were very helpful and friendly throughout the cruise, we found the reception and cruise sales teams to be especially good at their jobs. Our cabin steward was also fantastic.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
I have sailed on the Arcadia many times, the ship is clean and spacious. Arcadia is well maintained.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Deluxe balcony. It is basically a regular balcony cabin however on Arcadia they are called deluxe. It was somewhat spacious and it was extremely comfortable, the bathroom was a basic bathroom (shower over bath)

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
A small delay.

Phillpots, it is still a valid review, I experienced the cruise and I reviewed it, it doesn’t matter how long ago it was I remember all my cruises.

So you did not like the truth. Hey ho never mind I really don't care for your verbal attack on me.

Phillpots, quite frankly I don’t see the need for the comment, if you don’t like it then you can quite simply scroll past and spit your poison elsewhere.
