Virgin Voyages Cruises

18+ adults-only, with boutique-hotel design and included tips and Wi-Fi.

Virgin Voyages is the newest mainstream line and the only adults-only one (18+). The ships were designed by hospitality studios and feel more like a boutique hotel than a cruise ship. Tips, Wi-Fi, group fitness, and most non-alcoholic drinks are included. The whole thing is intentionally hip and music-forward, pitched as the opposite of your parents' cruise.

Best for:

Couples

Adults-only travelers

Design-conscious cruisers

First-time cruisers who want something different

Sails:

Caribbean

Mediterranean

Northern Europe

Ship Classes

Lady-class — Every ship in the fleet (Scarlet, Valiant, Resilient, Brilliant Lady) shares the same boutique-hotel design — no buffet, all-included dining.

Tips for Virgin Voyages Cruises

•No buffet — every restaurant is sit-down or quick-serve, included in the fare. The Wake (steakhouse), Pink Agave (Mexican), and Test Kitchen are standouts.
•Tips, Wi-Fi, group fitness, soft drinks, and basic coffee are all included — no nickel-and-diming on most cruise upcharges.
•The "Bar Tab" works in reverse: prepay any amount, get a 10–25% bonus, and use it like resort credit for booze.
•RockStar Suites are roughly 2.5x the cost of a regular cabin but include a private rooftop deck, butler, transport to/from the ship, and unlimited specialty dining.
•Adults-only (18+) — no kids on board. The pace and noise floor are very different from any other mainstream line.
•No formal nights, no dress codes — boutique-hotel casual is the default.
•The Manor (the nightclub) and Scarlet Night (a themed party night every cruise) are signature evenings — pack one bold outfit.
