Creator's Key Takeaways

So, we're in the Virgin Voyages Valiant Lady.

So, we ended up sharing a cab with a couple of ladies from a different ship.

So there's four big ships in port right now. Um so we made our reservations about a month ago, $68 a person.

What I love here is they actually have dedicated changing areas.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Plan for a taxi ride of about 20 to $25 per ride, and consider sharing to split costs.
Make reservations about a month in advance for Paradise Beach Club, costing $68 per person.
Pay attention to ship time to avoid a later start than planned.
Use the dedicated changing areas for convenience and cleanliness.
For the fun pass area, enter and exit the water on the right side of the yellow flag due to rocky conditions.

Get your set of these useful magnetic hooks at this link: https://amzn.to/3UDrVbJ Whitmor 5 Section Closet Organizer—Unfortunately, drawer and shelf space are sometimes limited in some cruise cabins. That’s why we always bring at least one of these inexpensive closet organizers, which gives us plenty of room for our folded clothes. We typically use a couple of magnetic hooks, as described above, to hang these from the ceiling in the corner of our room.
