Artemis Public Areas

Artemis - P&O Cruises superliner at sea
Artemis - Atrium

Artemis offers one of the warmest welcomes and most intimate atmospheres afloat! Slightly smaller than her fleet companions, her size allows her access to waters not charted by larger ships. Adventurous of spirit, this child-free cruise ship is the perfect choice for passengers seeking friendly surroundings and the company of like-minded adults.

Light and airy, she has over 16,000 square feet of windows so you need never be far from an ocean view! Equipped with every modern facility, Artemis combines the camaraderie of the traditional British cruise experience with every home comfort you could wish for, making her a favourite with passengers seeking a wonderfully authentic cruise holiday.

Artemis Bars & Lounges

Horizon Lounge

Artemis Horizon Lounge

High atop the ship is one of Artemis’ loveliest bars – the Horizon Lounge. To reach the bar go to the aft of the ship and take the lift to Sun Deck. As the name suggests, this bar affords visitors wonderful views of the horizon and its cream leather bar stools and comfortable chairs provide the perfect place to relax and read a book during the day. But it is at night when the room is at its most attractive. As the sun begins to set, the warm light pours in through floor-to-ceiling windows, bathing the room in warm golden light. As an attentive steward refreshes your drink you can converse with friends or simply sit back and listen to the melodic music as the pianist tickles the ivories of the baby grand piano.

International Lounge/bar

Artemis International Lounge/bar

At the forward end of D Deck you’ll find the International Lounge and Bar. Most of the evening stage shows and acts are performed on the lounge’s perfectly suited stage. The ample supply of comfortable show lounge seats arc around the stage in tiers and the vibrant colour schemes of vivid reds and sparkly fabrics add a dramatic touch to the room. Enter on the port side and you’ll immediately be met by the marbled bar and a welcoming bar steward you can either order you favourite tipple en route to your seat or find the perfect spot and wait for the stewards to come to you. This room is the perfect post dinner and late night venue for those who wish to be entertained by a theatre company one night, and perhaps a comedian or soloist the next.

Starlights

Artemis Starlights

Starlights spans the breadth of the ship and is located on D Deck aft. If you enter this room from the port side you’ll be met by the long marbled bar that sweeps into the room. Red leather bar stools and pillars characterise this room and give it a sumptuous feel. During the day you can catch up on your favourite sport or the latest news shown on large plasma screens. Alternatively, learn to tango or cha cha cha with a dance class on the superb dance floor that occupies the centre of the room. This room really comes to life at night. The low ceiling and soft lighting creates an intimate feel. And you can enjoy performances by a live band or cabaret artist on the centre stage, as a steward refreshed your drink. The atmosphere in this room is sure to make you want to get up and dance.

Tiffanys

Artemis Tiffanys

Tiffany’s is centrally located at the heart of Artemis at the top of the Atrium, D Deck midships. You can reach this speciality coffee and chocolate bar by ascending the sweeping staircase from Garden Court (E Deck) or by following either the port or starboard corridor to the centre of the ship. The centrepiece of this room is the very inspiration for its name - the Tiffany glass ceiling that crowns the Atrium – its colourful hues and the light that pours through it bathes the room in warm ambient light.

Artemis Theatre & Showlounges

Festival Theatre

Artemis Festival Theatre

There are two entrances into The Festival Theatre, you can either enter the starboard side from Tiffany’s on D Deck or use the door that leads off from the forward staircase foyer on D Deck. Despite its name, this small room is actually used most frequently as a cinema, showing all the latest new releases, as well as a few old classics. It’s also a lecture theatre, where you can hear about the next destination on your itinerary with port lectures, or perhaps listen to a talk given by a guest lecturer as part of the New Horizons programme. You may even catch a performance here by a solo musician. As you would expect, the room is appropriately dark with tiered seating rising from the small stage.

Artemis Casino

Monte Carlo Club

Artemis Casino

The Monte Carlo casino is centrally located on D Deck and is adorned with rich red fabrics including red leather chairs around the red felt gaming tables, giving the casino a sumptuous, glamorous feel. In addition to the two roulette tables and three blackjack tables, you will find over fifty slot machines. This is just as a casino should be - the low ceiling creates an intimate atmosphere and at night it comes alive to the sound of excited anticipation, which is infectious to those who are simply there to watch. This is a great place to continue a fun night out after post dinner drinks or a show.

Artemis Health & Well Being

Crystal Pool & Bar

Artemis Crystal Pool & Bar

On Lido Deck, just next to the Conservatory, is where you will find the Crystal Bar and Pool. Clear glass runs along both sides making it feel warmer and more enclosed than the Riviera Pool, but still allowing you ocean views. And, if you want a break from the sun, then you can relax in the shade provided by the deck above. Set in the middle of the teak deck space is a cluster of circular pools and jacuzzis. The circular shape is perfect for a quick refreshing dip, but if you want to swim some lengths then you should head for the Riviera Pool. The Crystal Pool and Bar, with attractive wooden bar stools, provides the perfect setting for deck barbeques, sunbathing and relaxing during the day. In warmer climes the Crystal Bar remains open into early evening so you can bask in the warm glow.

Gym

Artemis Fitness

Adjacent to the Oasis Spa on Sun Deck forward is the gym. Floor-to-ceiling windows allow you to look out to sea while you tone your muscles on a range of the latest gym equipment.

Riviera Pool & Bar

Artemis Riviera Pool & Bar

The Riviera Pool can be found on Sun Deck forward. If you would like to swim a few lengths then this is the pool for you. The surrounding area is perfect for sunbathing and the nearby bar and its stewards will be sure to keep you refreshed throughout the day. Stairs from this deck area lead up to a viewing platform, which affords visitors superb views, especially when you are sailing into a new port.

Promenade Deck

Artemis Promenade Deck

Located between C Deck and D Deck, Promenade Deck wraps around the entire ship. Constructed from a renewable source of teak, this hardwearing timber has a lovely aromatic fragrance, which is detectable on damp mornings. It’s a great place for a morning walk to get the blood moving and at night it’s the perfect setting for a romantic moonlit stroll under the twinkling stars.

Terrace

Artemis Terrace

The Terrace rises from Deck 4 to 8 in sweeping tiered decks, providing a stunning architecturally pleasing aft end to Artemis. It begins at the Promenade Deck, where you can play deck quoits, and ends at Lido Deck. The decks in between provide a wonderful retreat for sun worshippers who wish to gaze out over the mesmerising wake of the ship.

Artemis Shopping

Celebrations

Artemis Celebrations

The Celebrations desk nestles on E Deck – the lower level of the Atrium – at the bottom of the starboard side staircase, which sweeps down from Tiffany’s above. On display you will find extravagant floral displays carefully crafted by the resident florist, as well as a wonderful selection of gifts, which you can buy for loved ones or friends.

Emporium

Artemis Emporium

Small but perfectly formed, this compact shop can be found on D Deck just aft of Tiffany’s on the starboard side. It stocks all of the essentials that you could want from sweets and snacks to souvenirs and toiletries. So don’t worry if you have forgotten to pack something.

Mayfair

Artemis Mayfair

Mayfair, found on D Deck midships, just beyond Tiffany’s, is an Aladdin’s cave of souvenirs, perfumes, make up, jewellery and clothing, and can be accessed from both port and starboard. So, once you’ve shopped for gifts for loved ones and friends, and treated yourself to a little something special, you can take a break from your retail therapy with a well-deserved coffee and chocolates next door in Tiffany’s.

Artemis Services

Cyb@study

Artemis Internet cafe

The Cyb@study is perfectly positioned on the main starboard side corridor on D Deck, running between Starlights and Tiffany’s. Just like the Library two doors down, the Cyb@study is panelled in dark wood that gives it an intimate, homely feel. You can tuck yourself away to send emails to friends and family, or join one of the I.T. courses that are held on board.

The Portunus Club

Artemis The Portunus Club

The Future Cruise Sales desk and The Portunus Club Loyalty Manager’s desk occupy a quiet corner of the D Deck starboard corridor at the aft of Artemis. The dark wood panelling, desks and comfortable chairs that characterise the adjacent Library are continued through to this area, creating a relaxed environment in which to discuss your future cruises or your membership to The Portunus Club.

Photo Gallery

Artemis Photo Gallery

The Photo Gallery is conveniently located in the wide portside corridor that links Tiffany’s and the International Lounge on D Deck. This is where the Ship’s Photographers display the professional photographs they have taken throughout your cruise. Here you can purchase timeless mementoes of your time on board Artemis. You can also put your camera film in for developing or download your digital photographs.

Tours Office

Artemis Tours Office

Situated on E Deck portside, just between the entrance to the Coral Dining Room and the Reception Desk, is the Tours Office. Plasma screens set into the light wood panelling displays information about your next port of call so you can plan your day. Knowledgeable staff are on hand to offer advice and assistance to ensure you either choose a suitable tour, or, if you want to explore independently, they are more than happy to impart their wealth of knowledge.

Artemis Salon & Sta

Oasis Spa

Artemis Oasis Spa

Whether you stroll along Sun Deck, or take the forward lifts, you’ll arrive at the Oasis Spa. The scent of stunning, flower arrangements welcomes you and the small individual treatment rooms provide a tranquil retreat, just what you need when you’re enjoying a relaxing massage.

Artemis Special Interest

Library

Artemis Library

The Library is located on D Deck aft, nestled between Starlights and the Future Cruise and The Portunus Club desk. Dark wood cabinets with clear glass house a vast selection of books of every genre. The blue seats contrast well and provide a comfortable seating area in which to relax with a carefully chosen book. Within the Library you will find an area is given over to Waterstones book shop so you can simply borrow a book and return it or buy one to take home – the choice is entirely yours.

Trumps

Artemis Trumps

Just forward of Tiffany’s is the card room - Trumps, on D Deck starboard. You enter this room either from the glass doors leading from Tiffany’s or from the forward lifts. Inside you will find twelve card tables covered in the characteristic green felt. Large windows framed by cream curtains allow wonderful ocean views and imbue the room with natural daylight. If you aren’t too au fait with Bridge but would like to learn, then this is the perfect place to do so – a resident Bridge teacher is on hand to impart their knowledge and tips. Of course you can come into this room at any time to play the game of your choice with friends, or even to enjoy the peace and quiet with a book.

Artemis Restaurants

The Conservatory

Artemis Conservatory

High atop the ship on Lido Deck aft is the Conservatory. Floor-to-ceiling windows provide wonderful ocean views and give the room a light airy feel. Here you can enjoy informal self-service dining with a tempting array of food laid out before you. From early morning you can re-energise with breakfast, top up with a cold or hot lunch and refresh with afternoon tea. Then, at night, the lights are turned down and the warm glow of sunset and table candles create a unique intimate ambience. The tables are dressed for dinner as you choose from a delectable grill menu, as the Conservatory turns into The Grill. In warmer climes you will also be able to dine al fresco on the terrace.

Coral Dining Room

Artemis Coral Dining Room

Your entrance into the main Coral Dining Room is from the Garden Court area of the Atrium on E Deck. Three sets of beautifully etched glass doors give you an enticing view into this elegant dining room, with ocean views running along both the port and starboard sides. The soft pastel hues of this room are complemented by attractive paintings that depict Mediterranean countryside scenes, which are set into light marble and cherrywood adorned walls. The marble theme is extended to the four central pillars that stand proud in the centre of the room. You will find this restaurant is a refined place to dine either early morning for breakfast, at lunch, or mid-afternoon for afternoon tea and, of course, in the evening for a delectable six course dinner.
