Miami Embarkation Day: Virgin Voyages Check-In + Sea Terrace Room Tour

Creator's Key Takeaways
Virgin boarding late just kind of makes for a trippy port experience, especially with us embarking so late.
I do find Virgin Embarcation to be pretty smooth and kind of relaxing, whereas with a lot of cruise lines, it's really kind of chaotic.
The best thing about having a balcony is the sail away from the privacy of your room.
I've cruised, it's my third Virgin cruise. I've cruised Scarlet Lady now twice, Valiant Lady, and it's a little bit small.

Miami travel days always keep you on your toes! We spent the night at the Hilton Blue Lagoon Miami, a top pick for many cruisers thanks to its convenient location near both the airport and the cruise port, although I don't know if I agree with all the love it gets. Our trusted private driver, Hector (hands-down the best in the Miami and Fort Lauderdale cruise areas), picked us up and got us moving. Virgin’s boarding process is smooth and quiet as always, and we didn't have to wait long to embark. Take a first look at the ship, the cabin, and the vibe as we get ready to sail on Scarlet Lady, including the PJ Party... with a holiday twist. Follow along as we enjoy the first impressions of Virgin Voyages' Scarlet Lady. And up next... a sea day, VV style! **Hilton Blue Lagoon Miami: https://expedia.stay22.com/melissanewmanconsultingcreatives/amclkl42yr **My FREE Miami Port Guide: https://www.profmelissa.com/blog/miami ** Book Hector: https://profmel.com/drivers Watch this entire vlog series: * Episode 2: Virgin Voyages Dining Review: https://youtu.be/n1XOlam6PLk * Episode 3: Cruise Chaos in Puerto Plata: https://youtu.be/2H4cE1HW8qU * Episode 4: Scarlet Lady Sea Day: https://youtu.be/xbep2wlrqBE * Episode 5: Miami Port Debarkation: https://youtu.be/lUDsVOiI6D0 ----------------------------------------------- LINKS 🛳️ Get my Travel Insurance Guide for Cruisers: https://profmel.com/insurance 🛳️ Shop my favorite cruise outfits and essentials: https://profmel.com/shop 🛳️ Want to become a travel agent? https://www.profmelissa.com/travelagent 🛳️ Get my top recommended travel card: http://www.profmel.com/card 🛳️ Want to book a cruise or take a cruise with me? https://profmel.com/book 🛳️ Grab my FREE Cruise Packing List & Planner: https://profmel.com/subscribe 🛳️ Want to book my favorite private drivers? http://www.profmel.com/drivers ------------------------------------------------- CONNECT WITH ME TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@professormelissa Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ProfMelissaCruises/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/professormelissa ------------------------------------------------- Please note that sometimes, my posts contain affiliate links.
