Arvia Deck Plans Cabin Grades Explained
When you book a cabin on P&O Cruises Arvia, you will be asked which cabin grade you are interested in. The simplest way to check is by looking at a deck plan, which will detail all the available staterooms, grades, and their position on the ship.
On Arvia, there are five cabins to choose from: Single, Inside, Sea View, Balcony and Suite. You will notice from the image below that these are subdivided into further cabin types. For example, Single cabins are available as both an Inside and a Balcony.
The two-letter code refers to the cabin grade, while the colour denotes where on the ship your cabin will be located. You can then cross-reference the colour against the Arvia deck plan to find out whether your cabin will be relocated at the forward, aft or mid-ship.

How to Choose a Cabin on Arvia
As with any ship, you will need to consider several factors when choosing a cabin on Arvia. This is where an Arvia deck plan is particularly useful, as it provides the most accessible way to discover where each cabin is situated and any factors that may impact your decision.
When choosing a cabin on board P&O Cruises’ Arvia, numerous factors should be contemplated to ensure your sea voyage is as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. Here’s an overview of what to consider when selecting your cabin:
Cabin Type: Decide between a Suite, Balcony, Sea View or Inside Cabin. Generally, Inside Cabins on Arvia are the most economical, whereas Suites are the most expensive.
Location: Consider the cabin’s location on the ship. Some prefer a cabin in the middle of the ship for less motion, while others may choose a room at the front (forward) or back (aft) for the views and less foot traffic. Higher decks typically offer better views but may experience more movement.
Proximity to Amenities: Some cruisers like to be close to certain ship amenities, such as laundrettes, pools or restaurants. However, being too close to public areas might result in more noise. Review the Arvia deck plan carefully when selecting your cabin.
Accessibility: If you or your travel companions have mobility issues, make sure the cabin and the rest of the ship are accessible. P&O Cruises offer specially adapted cabins for passengers with disabilities.
Cabin Reviews: Look for reviews from past passengers about specific cabin experiences, which can offer insight into noise levels, service, and other personal anecdotes that might influence your choice. See our Arvia reviews for more info
Top Tip from One of Our Cruise Experts:
If you’re cruising with kids, I would always choose a mid-ship or aft cabin on Arvia, as this is where the buffet, kids’ clubs and pools are located.
Arvia also has an overhang as you move closer to the top deck, so if you’re choosing a balcony cabin, go for one that is mid-ship so you know it won’t be shaded.
