Creator's Key Takeaways

This is my third Virgin cruise. And I remember thinking this on my first two as well.

The food is okay. The snacks are nice in theory, but they're always stale.

I hate to say it, but the desserts, they're actually inedible.

Test Kitchen had the best desserts of the cruise.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Make sure your extension cord has only two outlets if taking a Virgin Cruise.

YouTube Video Description

It was supposed to be a chill sea day on Scarlet Lady, but after days of repeating menus, limited options, and some very questionable dishes… I hit my breaking point. 😅 We grabbed coffee, tried exploring The Galley again, and finally admitted defeat... landing at the one place that never disappoints: the pizza spot (seriously, the hero of this cruise!). As the weather tanked in Bimini, and we settled in for a lazy day onboard, we sampled room service, tested a few of the more “creative” dishes at Test Kitchen, and made our final food stop of the trip. The next morning, it was debarkation at Port Miami, and the line looked brutal, but thankfully moved quickly!
