Accommodation

Conservatory Mini-suite

A brand new innovation for P&O Cruises new Excel class ships, Arvia (arriving December 2022) and Iona; these cabins let the great outdoors in via an additional lounging area with floor-to-ceiling glass (and an external door) between the main cabin area and your balcony. Relax inside or out in complete comfort to incredible views.

The concept, which comes with Mini-suite benefits, brings the outdoors in with a personal and versatile conservatory-style room that forms an extension to the cabin. It offers great flexibility and creates a distinctive relaxation and socialising space; including stylish L-shaped seating, the conservatory-style room can be closed off or left open according to the time of day or mood. In the morning, you could keep it closed to enjoy a quiet coffee overlooking the ocean while everyone else is still asleep. By day or evening, the room can be opened out fully onto the balcony. With a direct connection to the sea, the space is cool and shaded – and perfect for chilling out in. In the evenings, it could also transform into a spacious environment for private celebrations and socialising over pre-dinner drinks with friends and family. All the while offering glorious seascape views.

Conservatory Mini-suites are approximately 274 square feet (including balcony).
