Creator's Key Takeaways

I was really pleased with the gym. It's a far weaker gym than a proper gym, but far better than most hotel gyms and a step above a lot of older cruise ship gyms.

On Arcadia, two laps is 1 km. Hotel 10 will close your rings.

If you're really dedicated to healthy eating, then the buffet is going to be your best bet on Arcadia.

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Use the prom deck for daily 5k walks to close fitness rings.
โœ“Take the stairs instead of lifts to burn extra calories.
โœ“At the buffet, focus on omelets, fresh fruits, yogurts, lean meats, fish, and salad for healthy eating.
