Barcelona… we’re back! 🇪🇸❤️

It’s a city we’ve visited many times, but every single trip feels different. We love staying somewhere new, discovering hidden corners and finding new favourites.

One thing that never changes though… our first brunch stop is always The Benedict 😍🥞🍳 It’s a little tradition now and if you’re ever visiting Barcelona, you really must give it a try!

This trip we’ve enjoyed some fantastic tapas, wandered around the famous food market (with plenty of tasting along the way of course 😋), and discovered a beautiful new park that’s also home to Barcelona Zoo.

That’s the magic of Barcelona — no matter how many times you visit, there’s always something new waiting to be discovered.

Now it’s time to leave Barcelona and set sail onboard Virgin Voyages Valiant Lady 😍

Have you been to Barcelona? What’s your favourite place to visit? 👇

🚢✨ A big thank you to Louise and her family for sharing their stunning cruise photos with us! 🌄

Just back from their first cruise, and they absolutely loved it, exploring the Norwegian fjords under perfect weather.

We're always eager to hear about your experiences, so when the phone rang as soon as they reached dry land, we listened with bated breath.
Unlike a search engine, we're here to keep tabs and ensure your trip goes well every step of the way.

Turns out, they loved it and are already planning their next adventure on a smaller ship.

Have you tried cruising yet? Or are you still unsure? 🤔
Let's chat and dispel those myths together!

Yep, we are out of the office travelling again! ✈️🚢🍹☀️

We will be working while we are away along with supporting our clients who are on our Virgin Voyages cruise with us as part of The Suite Natured & Cruise Buoys Group Cruise!
18 months in the making & we finally board Valiant Lady on Sunday for what is sure to be a great group cruise full of laughs, fun with friends old & new and obviously a few cocktails along the way 🍹

Meanwhile Holly will be taking one for the team, staying behind to make sure that everything runs smoothly with people away on their holidays, others getting ready to depart imminently and not forgetting dealing with all the new enquiries that keep coming through, oh and opening the shop when she can 😆

It might just mean it takes a little longer for one of us to get back to you, please bear with us.

If you would like to follow along, please keep an eye on our stories & we will try to update our social media daily!

If you would like to give Suite Natured and Cruise Buoys a follow they are sure to be putting updates on as well. Funny story, we first met Mark & Linzi from Suite Natured onboard Valiant Lady just over 4 years ago and here we are about to set sail onboard Valiant Lady together again. 😀

Ta Ta for now! We are off to find some mediterannean sunshine, hopefully! We promise to bring it back with us if we find it 😎

Cruising is a very different experience from booking a hotel stay — and not only because, yes, your hotel moves! A cruise gives you a whole new set of choices, from where you go and how you get there to the ship, cabin, food, entertainment, and activities you choose along the way.

Firstly, there’s your cabin. You have inside cabins, sea view cabins, balconies, and suites to choose from — and that’s before you even start thinking about the location of your cabin. Perhaps you want to be midship for a smoother ride, close to the lifts, or away from certain areas of the ship. Or maybe you’re someone who isn’t too bothered about the location and is happy to let the cruise line allocate your cabin — sometimes only hours before you sail!

Me? I’m a balcony cabin kinda girl, but I do love the suite life when the price is right!

So, which cabin would you choose? Let us know in the comments! 🛳️✨
