Curated Travel Experiences
Virgin Voyages: Boutique Cruising for the Modern Explorertime
If you’ve ever wished your favourite boutique hotel could set sail, look no further than Virgin Voyages. This adults-only cruise line is rewriting the rules of traditional cruising—swapping buffets for a-la-carte dining, formalwear for laid-back sophistication, and rigid itineraries for freedom and flair. For North American travellers who crave curated experiences, impeccable design, and a youthful take on luxury, Virgin Voyages offers an unforgettable escape at sea.
Designed for the Modern Traveller
Virgin Voyages was built with a new generation of cruise-goers in mind. While many cruise lines lean into nostalgia, Virgin has created something refreshingly current. The ships feel more like a boutique hotel meets art gallery than a typical mega cruise vessel. Expect sleek lines, mood lighting, avant-garde art installations, and Instagram-worthy design around every corner.
With four ships in its fleet (Scarlet Lady, Valiant Lady, Resilient Lady, and Brilliant Lady), Virgin has reimagined what cruising can be. Each ship accommodates just over 2,700 passengers—intimate enough to feel exclusive, yet large enough to offer endless experiences.
Adults-Only Atmosphere
One of Virgin’s most defining features? It’s completely adults-only. No kids, no splash zones—just grown-up fun. Whether you’re celebrating a honeymoon, escaping on a long-overdue couples’ getaway, or simply craving adult-centric relaxation, the vibe is sophisticated without being stuffy.
Expect social spaces designed for mingling, tranquil lounges perfect for a quiet cocktail, and immersive entertainment that ranges from provocative cabaret-style performances to pop-up circus acts. There’s even a tattoo studio onboard—because why not?
Elevated Dining – No Buffets Here
Gone are the days of crowded buffets and pre-assigned dining times. Virgin Voyages has elevated the culinary experience with 20+ included eateries, each with its own identity. Think elegant Mexican tapas at Pink Agave, Korean BBQ at Gunbae, and veggie-forward Mediterranean dishes at Razzle Dazzle. Best of all? It’s all included. No hidden dining fees, no upcharges for better bites.
Meals are made to order, menus are globally inspired, and the settings are design-led—from sleek, minimalist interiors to vibrant, boho-chic lounges. It’s a culinary journey as dynamic as the destinations.
Wellness with a Twist
Virgin’s take on wellness isn’t just about detoxing—it’s about balance. Want sunrise yoga followed by a craft cocktail by the pool? Done. Looking to hit the state-of-the-art gym before your indulgent six-course dinner? No problem.

From a running track with ocean views to the Redemption Spa (complete with a hydrotherapy pool and thermal suite), the ships are designed to help you rejuvenate your way. There’s even a group fitness schedule that includes everything from boxing to bungee workouts, all included in your fare.
Itineraries Made for You
For U.S.-based travellers, Virgin Voyages makes getting away effortless. Their homeport in Miami offers easy access from most North American cities, with itineraries sailing through the Caribbean, Mexico, and the Dominican Republic. Think four to eight-night itineraries, often including overnight stays or late-night departures to give you more time in each port.
Looking to venture further afield? Virgin also sails to the Mediterranean during the summer months, with immersive itineraries from Barcelona, Athens, and Rome. Each sailing is packed with cultural touchpoints, culinary highlights, and coastal gems.
And for that extra splash of island magic, nearly every Caribbean itinerary includes a stop at The Beach Club at Bimini, Virgin’s private Bahamian retreat, where you can enjoy a beachside DJ set, luxury cabanas, and toes-in-the-sand dining.
