This 7 night cruise to Spain, Portugal and France was our second cruise and the difference from our first one was remarkable, boarding was so easy just drop off your luggage onto a conveyor belt and check in and in 10 minutes from leaving the car we were on board in the restaurant.
Everything about the Arcadia spoke of elegance and luxury and the staff could not do enough for you. The food was excellent and the entertainment exceptional. We enjoyed just walking around the promanade deck watching the world go by and sitting relaxing in a chair and reading, or at other times swimming or using the gym or taking part in some on the onboard activities - always something to do whether it was relaxing or being active.
The days in port were great fun either exploring on our own or taking one of the excursions which were all good value.
Disembarking again was just as easy as boarding -just walk off and through the customs lounge collect your luggage and pick up the car with not hassel at all.
We loved our experience so much we have booked another cruise on the Arcadia in April going to the Canaries. I would recommend P & O to anyone and I dont think we would ever go on another cruise line.

Not been on this ship yet, but have cruised on P&O's Adonia and the old Arcadia. I agree, P&O are a great cruise company; we always have a really good holiday whenever we sail with them. Lexy
