The Beach Club at Bimini is a resort-style destination with soft and beautiful beaches, nice pools, and great food.  When Virgin Voyages is in port, it becomes a specialized and exclusive destination only for Virgin sailors, and takes on some qualities and very much make it feel like a continuation of the shipboard experience.  On this tour, we discuss the amenities, logistics, activities, and what we love and don't...

Usually ships go in for dry dock every few years, and while staterooms are often left largely unchanged during dry dock, this is when you're most likely to see stateroom updates.  After a lot of guest feedback however, the brand new Scarlet Lady, from Virgin Voyages, is already having some work done, resulting in some big changes in her cabins...

The final day of any cruise is a bit depressing for many.  With most Caribbean Virgin Voyages cruises spending that last day at The Beach Club at Bimini however, there is a lot of fun and relaxation to distract you from the reality that work be just a day away.  For us, we relaxed, even tried out a new activity, and then enjoyed a very peaceful final evening on board Scarlet Lady.

I love visiting new places, but sometimes, sea days are my favorite.  This sea day, however, was a work day for me.  Once I punched out though, it was time to enjoy Scarlet Night, a particularly interesting evening on Scarlet Lady...

I love going to new places, which made today’s port call on Scarlet Lady a mixed bag.  I went to a city I’d visited, but with some new elements.  While we didn’t do all we’d endeavored to experience, we had a nice day...

Like many children growing up, Christmas day was among the only times I was excited to get out of bed.  Today I woke up and I honestly didn’t remember it was Christmas, but I was as excited as ever, because I woke up on a cruise ship.  That’s a pretty good gift.

We’re on Virgin Voyage’s Scarlet Lady for the third time, but something is quite different, and I don’t just mean the itinerary.  See, since cruising returned to the Caribbean over six months ago, some lines have required masks, and others haven’t.  Virgin Voyages, with 100% vaccination rates, at embarkation testing, has not - but their guidance has just changed.  Over the next five nights we’ll see what has changed, and if the experience has been compromised.

Virgin Voyages’ Scarlet Lady is a cruise ship designed strictly for adults, and promises to be different than other lines. In this ship tour we’ll go deck by deck to show off the restaurants, lounges, pools, and more...

Virgin Voyages is a new cruise line and they’re aiming to do things differently.  As a frequent cruiser, room service is often disappointing - but did Virgin do this differently?  We put it to the test.  On our first cruise with Virgin Voyages we didn’t use room service, or “Ship Eats” as the line calls it.  On our second cruise we decided it was time to put it to the test...

Miami-based Virgin Voyages stepped up big this Giving Tuesday to give local healthcare workers a well-deserved vacation for the holidays.  The new cruise line offered up 500 cabins on upcoming sailings to employees of Baptist Health South Florida.  Baptist, which operates multiple hospitals and other healthcare facilities in South Florida, gave every employee a chance to win, and is drawing 250 winners who will each get two staterooms so they can relax with friends and family...
