How to Make the Most of a Cruise Vacation


Going on a cruise is a lovely way to spend a holiday. It's an opportunity to travel to exciting places in a most relaxing way, whilst enjoying plenty of good food and entertainment. Here are a few tips to help you make the most of your cruise without the costs spiralling out of control.

Cabin care

Cabins vary enormously in price, so when booking think about what facilities are essential for you. A cabin with a bath will be more expensive, so if you don't need one, save money by booking a shower-only option. Most of your time will be spent in other parts of the ship, with the cabin really only in use for sleeping, so book as basic as you comfortably can. The location of your cabin is more important than the facilities. If it is underneath the bar or restaurant, there is likely to be a lot of foot traffic overhead. A room near the engines will also be noisy, so check the deck plan before you book.

What to expect aboard the P&O Arcadia

There are seven ships among the P&O fleet and the Arcadia is one of the most elegant and stylish of the lot. There is a real air of sophistication on-board helped by the thousands of artworks that you'll find as you wander around what is a mid-size and quite majestic vessel.

As an adults-only ship, the P&O Arcadia can offer its guests the chance to unwind and relax in a refined environment that sails to some of the world's most exotic locations. The ship in fact makes its way from Southampton on the south coast of England to places as far afield as San Francisco, South America and Australia. And of course there are some truly incredible sights to see and hotspots to visit on along the way.

A key element of what most of us are looking for from a quality cruise holiday involves some tasty food and drink. Well the Arcadia has an imaginative array of dinning areas and restaurants on-board so passengers can take their pick from Italian, Asian and traditionally British foods. And a particular favourite for many is the Ocean Grill, a Marco Pierre White restaurant.
