Thinking about a cruise that breaks all the traditional molds? Virgin Voyages is an adults-only (18+) cruise line that has completely redefined the sea vacation with its "Rebellious Luxe" philosophy. Forget stuffy formal nights, endless buffets, and the patter of little feet – this is an experience designed for grown-ups seeking modern luxury, innovative dining, and a vibrant, yet relaxed atmosphere.

If you're curious about what makes Virgin Voyages so different, read on for your essential guide to everything you need to know!

1. The Vibe: Exclusively for Adults, Effortlessly Chic

Step aboard a Virgin Voyages ship and immediately feel the difference. The atmosphere is sophisticated, playful, and always authentic.

• Adults-Only (18+): This is perhaps the biggest differentiator. Enjoy peaceful mornings, sophisticated evenings, and entertainment curated specifically for an adult audience.

• No Formal Dress Code: Virgin's motto is "Be You, Do You." There's no pressure to dress up unless you want to. Think resort casual, stylish, or whatever makes you feel good.

• Boutique Hotel at Sea: The ship's design is sleek, modern, and intentionally avoids the grand atrium feel of traditional cruise ships. Instead, you'll find intimate lounges, cool nooks, and stylish bars, making the ship feel like a chic boutique hotel.

2. "Always Included" - The Value Proposition (with important updates!)

Virgin Voyages pioneered an "Always Included" model that bundles many extras into your fare. This helps eliminate nickel-and-diming and provides excellent value, though there are important updates for future bookings.

What has been Always Included:

• All Dining: Access to over 20 unique eateries, all included in your fare. No upcharges for specialty restaurants!

• Essential Drinks: Still and sparkling water, non-pressed juices, sodas, drip coffee, and tea.

• Group Fitness Classes: Unlimited access to a wide range of fitness classes, from HIIT to yoga.

• Basic Wi-Fi: Stay connected with basic internet access.

• World-Class Entertainment: Immersive, modern shows, pop-up performances, and themed parties (like the iconic Scarlet Night).
  
  

📢 IMPORTANT UPDATE for Bookings from Oct 2025 Onwards: Virgin Voyages is transitioning to a new "VoyageFair Choices" fare structure. Gratuities will no longer be included in the base fare. While "Essential" and "Premium" fares will offer more flexibility and perks, the initial base fare will have gratuities as an added cost. If booking for 2026, be sure to clarify what your specific fare tier includes!

3. A Culinary Revolution: Dining Beyond the Buffet

One of Virgin Voyages' biggest draws is its incredible dining experience. You won't find a main dining room or a sprawling buffet here.

• 20+ Unique Eateries: Each ship boasts a diverse range of restaurants, from elevated Mexican at Pink Agave to experimental tasting menus at The Test Kitchen, authentic Italian at Extra Virgin, and lively Korean BBQ at Gunbae.

• No Fixed Dining Times: Dine when and where you want. Reservations are recommended for popular spots but are easily managed via the app.

• 24/7 Room Service: Craving a late-night snack? Food delivery is available around the clock.

4. Onboard Experience: Relax, Recharge, or Rave!

Whether you're looking for serene relaxation or high-energy fun, Virgin Voyages caters to every mood.

• Wellness & Fitness: State-of-the-art gyms with ocean views, a boxing ring, outdoor running track, and included fitness classes make staying active easy. The Redemption Spa is a tranquil oasis for pampering.

• Unique Entertainment: Expect cutting-edge, often immersive shows that break the fourth wall. Beyond the main productions, there are pop-up performances, DJ sets, and themed parties.

• Scarlet Night: Don't miss this signature event! Everyone is encouraged to wear red for a ship-wide, high-energy celebration.

• The Pool Deck: While not the largest, the main pool deck offers a vibrant atmosphere. You'll also find quieter pools and hot tubs elsewhere on the ship.
