Creator's Key Takeaways

If you love good food, modern cabins, great service, and unique entertainment, then absolutely.

The service gets rave reviews for being friendly and top tier, and I wholeheartedly agree. They were fabulous.

Be very careful about doing a direct comparison with other cruise lines who may try to upsell those extras that are already included on Virgin.

We found that many people dressed up and made an effort to look fabulous, but then found there was no judgment if you wanted to slob around in your pajamas.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Consider what is already included (specialty dining, gratuities, sodas, Wi-Fi) before comparing base prices to other cruise lines.
Use the bar tab to control alcohol spending, but remember if you don't use it, you lose it.
Don't feel pressured to participate in high-energy entertainment; you can watch quietly or opt for quieter spaces.

Party atmosphereIt is not a 24/7 crazy party ship; there are plenty of quieter, sedate spaces available.
CostLook at the value of inclusions like dining and gratuities rather than just the base price.
Lack of traditional diningThe lack of a buffet/main dining room actually provides more variety and interesting venues.

YouTube Video Description

Virgin Voyages surprised us in many ways from the wonderful dining experiences, the eclectic entertainment and the sedate spaces to chill. In this informative video we share some things you may be surprised to see on Virgin Voyages. If you are unsure about a cruise with them watch this video to help you decide if it is the cruise line for you! We have been sailing on cruise ships since 2016 and had always been quite loyal to Marella and P&O cruises. This year we decided to give a cruise line a go that we had never thought of before. We thought Virgin Voyages was just for the young, wild, and ultra-rich? Were we right? In this myth-busting video, we uncover the truth about Virgin Voyages—based on our own 5-night cruise experience to France and Spain aboard the Resilient Lady. Whether you're worried it's all about wild parties, worried you're too old, or wondering if it's worth the price—we’ve got you covered. We tackle 13 of the biggest Virgin Voyages cruise myths, including: Is it really just for young people? Are there swingers and 24/7 parties? Is there no buffet or main dining room? Are the cabins too basic? Is Virgin way more expensive than other cruises? From cabins and tech to food, drink, and entertainment—we’ll tell you what’s TRUE and what’s TOTAL NONSENSE! #cruisetips #cruiseship #travel Spoiler: You can wear pyjamas on a cruise night, enjoy fine dining every evening, and you don’t have to attend a single party if you don’t want to. Virgin Voyages might just surprise you.
