Entertainment

We had an amazing time, the service was excellent from restaurant staff and customer service, food was amazing and lots of choice or different restaurant. The only thing I would say about the cruise itself is that the evening entertainment could be improved as I didnt think there was enough for early evening. The area where music was played was small. Overall the casual dress was good however there were some sailors who dressed poorly and I feel there should be standards set especially when going to the restaurants. Bars and restaurants were good and the room was cleaned every day and service was very good.

First time we've been on a cruise, I was apprehensive about what to expect, any expectations I did have were blown completely out of the water. The ship itself is small in comparison to the royal Caribbean fleet, but that never made it feel cramped or crowded. The layout of the ship is absolutely fantastic too, so many restaurants and bars that have such different themes. The food!! Oh my goodness, the food on this ship is some of the best food I've ever tasted. Already booked to do another virgin voyages cruise and I've only been home 2 days. If you're thinking about it... Just book it. You will not regret it.

Staff Review - My cabin was really spacious and comfy, making it a great place to relax. It was always clean and the balcony view was amazing. I loved starting my day looking out at the sea, which was really peaceful and beautiful. The all-day breakfast was delicious and quick. I could choose from lots of different breakfast foods anytime, which was super convenient. The sushi bar was a new experience for me, and I loved it! The sushi was fresh and tasty, and everything looked so nice. It was exciting to try something different and it turned out great. Playing pickleball was a lot of fun and it was a cool way to meet people and stay active. I used the gym every day and it had everything I needed. It was great for keeping up with my workouts and I got to chat with others who like staying fit too. The Manor was awesome - it had a cool bar which set the tone for a relaxed yet vibrant evening and lots of room to dance. The place looked really stylish, perfect for taking some cool photos. Scarlett Night created a big atmosphere that was both visually stunning and socially engaging. I have to mention the track on the roof of the ship. It was great for running or walking with an incredible view of the ocean. It's perfect if you like staying active and enjoying beautiful scenery at the same time. Brandon, Customer Care
