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

Staff Review - I stayed in a Sea Terrace cabin with a lovely clear view out to sea, a big bed and the famous Virgin Voyages hammock. My favourite restaurants were Extra Virgin for the amazing Italian dishes and the Korean BBQ at Gunbae is just so much fun! During the day I enjoyed the Social Club for a vegan hotdog and a game of shuffleboard and the pool loungers as they are like big mattresses. When it came to party time The Manor nightclub and the acrobatic show in the theatre were spectacular. What was also a massive plus was how all of these amazing venues and experiences are included. The alcoholic drinks are really reasonably priced and Wi-Fi to use the app was speedy too! Ellie, Marketing
