Will you be a Virgin on Valentines Day?

Virgin Voyages is slowly releasing more details for its launch next week which will see the Scarlet Lady arrive at Port Miami in 2020 for her inaugural sailing season around the Caribbean

A 24/7 festival at sea where tranquility meets curiosity with no kids, no buffets, and no limits. For now, enjoy a shiptease and get a room  starting on Valentine’s Day when bookings are open

Virgin says she will be ‘a sanctuary at sea’ for the 18-plus traveller’ where passengers will be able to enjoy free fitness classes, free dining, and free filtered water and sodas.

Virgin Voyages will be including dining cover charges and unlimited WiFi in the cost.  All fitness classes are also included and will come at no extra charge as well as basic beverages such as teas and sodas

Gratuities will also be included in the price of your cruise.  This means that your on board account will not be charged a daily service fee.

Unlimited WiFi will come at no extra charge.  For those who want the ability to stream, you will be able to upgrade to a premium plan.

Guests will be able to choose from 20 dining and drinking options, some will be open 24 hours per day and every single one of them is included in the cruise fare.  There will be no buffets, main dining rooms or assigned dining times like you’d find on traditional cruise ships and no formal wear nights- they have ditched that idea too!

The following is just a few of the restaurants that will be on the cruise ship:

  • The Wake – steak and seafood
  • Pick Agave – upscale Mexican
  • Razzle Dazzle – vegetarian
  • The Test Kitchen – cooking lab and restaurant
  • Gunbae – Korean BBQ
  • Extra Virgin – Italian
  • The Galley – food hall
  • The Dock – Mezze Lounge

The Richard Branson-backed cruise line has just released renderings of the ship’s 78 luxury “RockStar Suites,” which will be located on the ship’s 15th deck.

These will include 15 Mega RockStar Suites, which are further divided into Massive, Fab, Posh and Gorgeous Suites.

The rock star theme is quite literal, too. The Massive Suite will feature a music room stocked with guitars, an amp and a special private lookout point at the front of the ship.

It’s got a private terrace with a standing hot tub, a large “runway” table for when you’re entertaining guests and an open-air “Peek-a-View” shower that offers sea views.

These suites come with rock star treatment as well.

RockStar sailors — Virgin doesn’t refer to its guests as “passengers” — get private airport transfers, access to an exclusive terminal pathway and personal “rock and roll style rider sheets to satisfy even the most diva-like of requests.”

Deployment includes cruises to Cuba, Costa Maya and Puerto Plata. Additional port calls are expected to be added into each itinerary and announced this month.

Don’t just build a ship, create a yearning for the sea.— Richard Branson
