Creator's Key Takeaways
We just finished our sailing on the Brilliant Lady, the fourth and newest ship in the Virgin Voyages fleet.
The new restaurant Rojo was a standout for me and it might be the reason enough to pick Brilliant Lady over the other ships in the fleet.
This ship is built for longer itineraries, offering a more relaxed pace compared to the shorter fourhour or five night sailings.
The service throughout the sailing was phenomenal.
