Creator's Key Takeaways

I cruise on P&O Iona next month I need to speak to an expert.

It was a really lovely Christmas day to be honest I mean it was not we all went on with the family so that was the main thing for us all to be together.

The Retreat on Iona is the adult only space on there right at the front of the ship and all Keno Cruisers have got The Retreat on them.

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Book The Retreat access in advance or at the spa on embarkation day.
โœ“Try the Olive Grove on Iona for included dining, and book early as it fills up.
โœ“Consider a seven-day pass for the thermal spa for better value.

I cruise on P&O Iona next month I need to speak to an expert. So I have drafted the help of my friend 'Cruise with Amber' who has cruised on Iona and Arvia. So Friday night live is all about a quick look at the key differences between P&O Cruises Arvia and Iona. We check a few critical differences between both ships. We talk about dining venues such as green & co and 6th St diner plus the new swim-up pool area at the aft Outside areas such as the Skydome pool, the altitude skywalk, and mini golf are also new additions. and wow! how about the difference between the grand atrium! There are lots of other small decor changes too.
