Virgin Voyages: A new wave of sailing

In association with: Virgin Voyages

Set sail the Virgin way

A sailing with Virgin Voyages turns the ordinary into extraordinary. The first ship, Scarlet Lady, made waves when it entered the market, and two new ships, Valiant Lady and Resilient Lady, are set to follow in 2022.

All Virgin Voyages ships are adult by design. They are the perfect combination of sophistication and relaxation, and experiences on board are curated for those over the age of 18. There’s a diverse range of entertainment too.

They are the perfect combination of sophistication and relaxation

Virgin Voyages’ ships are the epitome of boutique glamour and home to innovative features such as LED lighting and tinted windows, which help the vessels use less energy without compromising on style. There’s a ‘relaxed luxe’ atmosphere on board, with made-to-order food full of fresh flavours and unexpected pairings taking the place of pre-set dining times and buffets.

With more than 20 eateries on board, Sailors will be spoilt for choice. And each voyage always comes with more than $600 in value included.

Virgin Voyages offers a range of Mediterranean and Caribbean itineraries, as well as some transformative transatlantic itineraries, allowing Sailors to see two continents in one epic journey. And with late-night and overnight stays at ports of call, there is plenty of time to explore these exciting destinations.
