Virgin Voyages is Adults Only

No kids means it actually FEELS like a vacation.

Virgin Voyages is adults only, which means one major thing: no screaming kids. You get a vacation that feels elevated, relaxed, and honestly, fun.

Whether you want to chill and have a quiet vacation or dance until 2 a.m., you can design your perfect trip.

Incredible Food at 20+ Eateries

All the food on Virgin Voyages is included, and it is next-level delicious. With over 20 eateries onboard—ranging from a classic steakhouse to elevated Italian — you’ll never feel like you’re stuck in a traditional cruise buffet.

To be honest, the food alone is worth booking the cruise. It’s that good.

Entertainment & Parties Like No Other

Think immersive, fun, inclusive, and unforgettable.

The entertainment onboard is full of surprises, and yes, there are FUN dance parties—including the iconic Scarlet Night, where the entire ship turns red and the energy is unmatched.

Smaller Ships With Big Personality

Each Virgin Voyages ship holds about 2,700 passengers, which makes it more intimate than most big cruise lines. But what’s amazing is how the ships are designed for choice—you’ll find:

  • Lively social spaces
  • Quiet corners for recharging
  • Beautiful outdoor areas
  • Sleek lounges and fitness spots

It truly feels like a floating boutique all inclusive resort, not a mega cruise ship.

Don’t forget to pack THIS!

Virgin Voyages has reimagined sailing and what you need to pack on for this trip is DIFFERENT than a normal cruise line. There are many items I wish I knew to bring (that I didn’t have with me on my first sailing).

What’s Included on Virgin Voyages?

Setting sail the Virgin way means cruising differently—and more inclusively. Here’s what’s always included:

  • All food at every restaurant
  • Wi-Fi
  • Still & sparkling water
  • Group fitness classes
  • Tips & gratuities

My honest opinion? Once you cruise like this, you won’t want to go back to the nickel-and-diming of traditional lines.

No Cruise Director. Meet the Happenings Cast.

Instead of one over-the-top cruise director, Virgin Voyages has a Happenings Cast—a quirky, super fun group of hosts that help you connect with everything going on.

They’re not just entertainment—they’re your cruise BFFs.

The Vibe Changes by Itinerary

Every Virgin sailing has its own unique energy. The length of the cruise and the destinations play a huge role in determining the vibe and demographic onboard.

Some are party-forward and some are more quiet and relaxed.
