Arvia Cruise Reviews - Reviews

Wonderful cruise, huge ship with loads to do, you do get your steps in! Loads of windows to look out from and deck space to enjoy sail ins and sail aways, glorious sunsets and relaxing moments

Excursions are a must for all Islands, use independent ones if you want to save some money.

Need more staff , too many drunk teenagers, seems like a booze cruise

Very poor quality entertainment often repeated. Food left out for the day before served to you and Service can take 30 to 40 minutes in between starters and mains and that’s if you can even get a booking in a restaurant as it only has a virtual booking system which opens at 6:30 mean, meaning that you have to start at your phone and try and join a virtual Queue

No overall best review the only thing we had a break

Could have been better. Feel like staff are exploited from conversations had with various staff. P & O need to treat staff better, employ more staff, morale is low as overworked and underpaid thus affecting level of service provided. Not sure if would cruise with them again for this reason. We only chose P & O as only cruiseliner that did 14 nights in the Caribbean and somewhere we always wanted to go. Underwhelming.

This was our first cruise with P&O and can safely say it won't be our last! It was a wonderful experience from Start to finish. The crew and staff are friendly helpful and polite. Arvia is a beautiful ship, can't wait to sail on her again in the future.

Lots of sea days , very relaxing. And plenty to eat and drink . if you avoid the sky dome , very very loud ll the time)

The entertainment was top tier. Especially from the headliners company. Do book, before coming on board to avoid disappointment and queuing.

Embarking was a breeze Food was good Drinks were more than reasonable Plenty to do Array of bars, restaurants Clean from my experience Disembarking was simple

Ship very good, food good, tours average, entertainment could be better but ok.

amazing ship,well done P & O .We would go again soon.

It’s ok ship pools far to small and sun beds all taken to fast apart from that all good

Arvia is a beautiful ship and I would love to go on her again in the future. The staff are very nice but sometimes missing personal touches and they don’t seem to have the enthusiasm or energy that staff on other cruise lines have but over all an amazing holiday and we would definitely return.

Was absolutely exhausting walking so far getting around the ship. Too big for anyone not 100% fit and young

We weren’t keen on the new restaurants which differ from Iona, 6th street and one other forgettable one. Also didn’t like joining a virtual queue at 7pm to get my dinner served at 8.30. Like most cruise lines these days it has an app, that’s fine, we like an app you can order your drink from or look up the daily activities, oh wait P&O don’t offer that!

Can only describe it as Butlins at sea, Very much a family ship.

Poor experience overall. I wouldn't recommend arvia to others. Really disappointing as we love cruising with P&O.

We enjoyed the cruise,it was a last minute very reasonably priced holiday,In fact it was very cheap! Sadly inside cabins were sold as little as £399 for 2 weeks! P&O struggling with huge staffing issues, cruise was saved by us booking and using the Retreat

Beautiful ship, but some staff are trying to ruin it. Arvia doesn't really know if it's a family ship or not. It's aiming for everyone and missing the basics.
