P&O Cruises: Arcadia

Overview

Designed for adults only, Arcadia is sophisticated and fresh. Her understated elegance is highlighted by an extensive art collection that showcases modern British artists.

P&O's first new ship in a decade, Arcadia was built on Holland America Line's Vista-class platform (indeed, she was destined to be a Holland America Ship until Carnival Corporation aquired P&O in 2003), but the new owners made modifications to suit British tastes. A refined yet lively British Victorian-style pub hosts karaoke, talent shows, dancing, and sports viewing.

Arcadian Rhodes, the extra-charge specialty restaurant, is the creation of Gary Rhodes, one of Britain's most popular contemporary chefs.
