Arvia Med cruise was everything we had hoped for
My wife and I (with Sister and Brother in Law) just returned from our 2 weeks sailing around the Med on board P&O Arvia. What an amazing experience. Hard to fault anything on board to be honest. Up front I will say, if you expect to go on there for an adults only quiet cruise then Arvia is probably not for you. However, it certainly is not 'Butlins at sea' as some seem to comment. It's an excellent ship, yes can be busy, but it's a large ship so expect a great atmosphere, lively areas with the ability to find quieter areas if you want to get away from everyone. OK so the experience on ship, just amazing, food choice is excellent if eating at the buffets and alternatively, if going for other bookable restaurants, these are top drawer as well. We never had a single bad meal on board. Food throughout was exceptional. Sindu Indian was a standout, incredible flavours. Drink choice is really good. Go watch Mary Mac drag show, what a brilliant and fun show that is. If you port at Cadiz and have never been, strongly suggest you do that stop, Cadiz is amazing. Cleanliness on Arvia was really good and the staff really go out of their way to make your cruise the best it can be, so friendly and helpful. All in all, I could go on, but genuinely, the Arvia is an amazing ship and is an excellent cruise, don't listen to some of the poor reviews from folks who will complain at anything because they probably booked the wrong ship!
