There was no wow factor on the Arvia ship..
it had the feeling of a resort not a ship..
The atrium was so disappointing, all very boring.
As for the swim up bar it wasn’t..
more walk up bar as it was small and not inviting, on sea days people crammed themselves in, this also applied to the hot tubs! Not for me at all..
Yuck! On sail away days it’s nice to have a drink in a lovely outside upper deck bar but there wasn’t one on Arvia unlike a lot of the celebrity ships.
Our Premier balcony room was lovely but noisy at times.
Unfortunately we’ve been put off sailing with P&O again as there were a few other issues including charging us twice for on board spending which we found out on our return! P&O cruises are trying to attract all manner of people.
We felt we were in a Benidorm resort at times.
I suppose the Roast beef and Yorkshire puddings and English breakfast every day on menu said it all!
