Creator's Key Takeaways

We were sailing on board Scarlet Lady on an 11-day Mediterranean cruise.

We found that service was throughout our entire cruise pretty fast and efficient.

This actually did make it one of the most pleasant cruise travel experiences that we have had in years.

The food in the galley, probably some of the best, if not if not maybe the best galley/buffet casual food on a cruise ship.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Reserve shows and dining as soon as you get on board.
Bring a red outfit for Scarlet Night.

Cruise being too risque or provocativeKeep an open mind; the vibe is adult-oriented but there's something for everyone.

YouTube Video Description

If you're considering going on a Virgin Voyages cruise this video is a must watch! We recently returned from a Virgin Voyages cruise onboard Scarlet Lady. Although this was our second time on this cruise line, we knew that the cruise line made some changes to some of the entertainment & dining. During our 11 day Mediterranean cruise, we tried the cruise ship's restaurants, shows, & experienced what cruise life is like onboard. We answer frequent questions many people have about Virgin Voyages, including "am I too old" & is Virgin Voyages the right cruise line for me. We show you our Sea Terrace balcony cabin & share info about the cruise ship, pools, lounges & the cruise ports. Our cruise left from Barcelona & visited Mediterranean cruise ports including La Spezia, Cannes, Civitavecchia (Rome), Ibiza, Mallorca, Ajjacio Corsica. *Get up to $200 in onboard credit towards your voyage plus their best discount of the year, 70% off the second Sailor + up to $300 in Savings: https://tag.gs/ZgFnXM Thanks to Virgin Voyages for hosting us & sponsoring this video! #ad #virginvoyages @VirginVoyages 🛳 THE ULTIMATE CRUISE PLANNER 🛳 Get the Life Well Cruised ULTIMATE CRUISE PLANNER ($10 off for a limited time).
