Creator's Key Takeaways

Today, I'm going to be spending five nights on an ultra luxury cruise. Join me on an adults only Virgin Voyage.

The main pool is so small. There is a bit more of a pool area around there.

Food-wise on board, there are so many different options and so many different restaurants that you can eat in.

I'm still pretty new to cruising. And the the first thing that I noticed a lot of the time walking around the ship, just being on board, is how good the crew are at cleaning.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Get a drinks package before you get on board to save money.
βœ“Use a straw at the champagne bar to avoid scratched glasses.
βœ“Book restaurant time slots in advance, but expect queues due to walk-ins.

Getting confused by ship time vs. local time β€” Keep to one central time on the ship to avoid missing departures.
Racking up a large bill with wristband payments β€” Be mindful of extras like casino games, as they link to your credit card.
