Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm David from VV Insider and I'm going to walk you through five top tips to get luxury touches on your voyage without having to spend a huge amount of money on Rockstar or Mega Rockstar suit.

A trip to the thermal suite in Redemption Spa will set you back $79 if you decide to go on a sea day. But if you go on a port day instead, it will only cost you $59.

Splash of Romance package is of course designed for couples normally, but there's nothing stopping you buying Splash of Romance, even if you're sailing solo if you still want access to those features that I've mentioned.

In our opinion, it's definitely worth a go.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Use the Shake for Champagne feature early in the voyage to avoid long waits.
Visit the thermal spa on a port day for a lower price.
Consider the Splash of Romance package for priority boarding and other perks.
Enjoy afternoon tea in Sip Lounge to spend excess bar tab allowance.
Try bottomless brunch at The Wake or Razzle Dazzle for a flat fee.
Bid for cabin upgrades through the Virgin Voyages upgrade system.
