Ship Highlights

  • Mid-size ship balancing space and intimacy

Dining Experience

P&O Cruises brings a distinctly British dining experience with celebrity chef partnerships including Marco Pierre White and Eric Lanlard. The main dining rooms, Limelight Club, and Glass House wine bar offer complimentary dining, while specialty venues include Epicurean and Sindhu.

Entertainment & Activities

P&O features West End-caliber shows, comedy nights, and the Headliners theatre. The SkyDome on Iona and Arvia transforms from a pool by day to an entertainment venue by night. The spa, cinema, and enrichment programs round out the experience.

Staterooms & Suites

P&O offers a range from inside cabins to the luxurious suites with butler service. The Select Price system lets guests choose their preferred dining time and table configuration. Balcony cabins are popular for enjoying ocean views and British weather at sea. Arcadia accommodates up to 2,094 guests.

Good to Know

This mid-size ship strikes a great balance between amenities and an uncrowded atmosphere. Consider a drink package or specialty dining package if you plan to dine outside the complimentary venues regularly.

"Our experience on Arcadia was absolutely incredible. The ship is beautiful and well-maintained, and the ports of call were amazing. We booked all our excursions through Vacation Booker and saved a fortune compared to the cruise line prices."

"This was our third cruise on Arcadia and it never disappoints. The staff is wonderful and the itinerary was perfect. We used Vacation Booker for a private snorkeling tour that was the highlight of the entire trip."
