🚢 Thinking about giving Virgin Voyages a try? Here’s my experience after my very first Virgin Voyages cruise aboard Resilient Lady!
✨ Virgin Voyages is definitely NOT your traditional cruise experience! There’s no main dining room. Instead, you can enjoy a variety of amazing restaurants, all INCLUDED in your cruise fare!
✨ There’s also no traditional “elegant” or formal night. Instead, Virgin offers fun themed nights that you can participate in if you want—but if you don’t, that’s totally okay too!
✨ Now, if you know me, you know I have a pretty reserved personality. But let me tell you…I wasn’t prepared to have this much fun stepping outside of my comfort zone! 🤣 I wore red for Scarlet Night, showed up in pajamas for the pajama party, tried foods I normally would never touch, and sang ’80s songs at the top of my lungs during the Miss Behave comedy show. Somehow, I loved every minute of it! 😂
✨ While there was no shortage of energy and entertainment on the ship, there were peaceful moments too. I took the best nap ever in the red hammock on our balcony 😴, stared out at the ocean looking for dolphins (didn’t see any 😔), and enjoyed strolling around the ship and discovering tons of cozy spaces. You definitely don’t have to be a party animal to enjoy this cruise! ✨
✨ In the evenings, the music on the main deck had a little more bass and thumping than my ears could handle 😂 (y’all know I’m old), but there were plenty of other options! We lounge-hopped and enjoyed listening to amazing bands play everything from ’80s favorites to current hits. 🎶 We also enjoyed sitting in The Galley with our fellow sailor friends—talking, laughing, and eating all the desserts we wanted! 🧁 Calories don’t count on a cruise, right?😁
✨ Speaking of FOOD…The dining was honestly one of my favorite parts of the entire cruise. Y’all, this was some of the best food we’ve ever had—not just “for a cruise ship.” 🍽️
✨ By the end of our cruise, I knew Virgin Voyages would become one of my favorite cruise lines to recommend. The crew was so kind and welcoming, and our fellow sailors were just as friendly. It was truly a breath of fresh air! I expected a great vacation, but I didn’t expect to leave feeling so refreshed, relaxed, and excited to do it again. I’m ready to plan my next one…maybe Alaska next?! ❄️
