Where superyacht design and your dream destinations meet. Welcome to how Virgin does cruise ships.
With Richard Branson at the helm, Virgin Voyages is redefining what a luxury cruise ship means by combining premium elements from favorites on land with the freedom and simplicity of a life well lived on the open ocean.
With a name derived from the Latin, “valere” (which means to be strong) our second lady ship calls Barcelona her home — setting sail through the Mediterranean in the summers and spending her winters voyaging down in the Caribbean.
The perfect mix of sophistication, nostalgia and cool — entering The Wake is an event in and of itself. And once you’ve made your way down the grand staircase, you’ll enter a world that harks back to the old steakhouse, three-martini-lunch days of Madison Avenue ad men. But thankfully now with gender equality. And less cigar smoke.
Inspired by the capital city’s red hot street food scene, Sailors are treated to an immersive odyssey of Mexican cuisine. Personal, intimate and educational, a master of ceremonies will guide you through a highly curated dining and drinking experience. Mezcal dinner pairings equipped with a history lesson? Yes, pls.
Boasting a bold interior, this restaurant offers creative surprises on some classic, comfort go-tos. Whether you’re looking for something familiar (#basic can be good) or something spicy and out of left field, this place does all of that with a twist (breakfast, lunch and dinner).
Inspired by Escoffier’s Ma Cuisine, this laboratory-like eatery is part cooking school and part restaurant. It’s educational, experiential and social. With classes and evolving tasting menus, this is for the curious, boundary-pushing tastebuds on board.
Our whimsical ice cream shop harks back to that magical home town, summer nostalgia, just with a Virgin Voyages twist and some complimentary scoops. That includes six seasonal home (or ship) made, artisanal flavors like the vegan Green Machine or Gianduiotto Chocolate. All with a featured daily flavor announced from our nearby record shop DJ booth, guaranteed to be unlike anything you might remember seeing at your local home town shop.
With ocean views and mezze-style bites, The Dock combines elegant, seaside chilling with the chic vacation vibes of the Mediterranean in the heat of summer. Sip a refreshing beverage while lounging in the sundrenched areas of the deck, or indulge in a wide variety of recipes — all while feeling the ocean breeze waving through your hair.
An effortlessly elegant, yet cozy counterpart to the view focused scene outside, The Dock House, delivers bright flavors that are anything but laid back while live acoustic sounds round out each taste. Select from choice cuts and fresh fish for the tableside open flame, or try bites like house made pita and dips. Detox mocktails, Mediterranean inspired cocktails or selections from the specially curated Rosé program promise to quench all thirst. Part elegant Ibiza cabana, part rustic-chic resort, always full-on delicious specialty dining.
Deeply rooted in Italian culinary traditions, our trattoria serves regionally-inspired food punctuated by our fresh, handmade pasta. Start with shared antipasti — and follow that with any of our pasta-centric favorites and worship the carb gods like a good vacation begs of you. Top it off with a traditional Italian aperitif to make your night complete or help it get started.
Modeled after popular food halls where Sailors can taste a variety of options — The Galley, designed by Softroom — will be your go-to for a quick bite or meal throughout the day. Featuring a mix of more than eight shops and food-truck style carts, each spot will have a unique concept with signature dishes that change to suit the time of day. The Galley boasts a dedicated bakery and pastry shop, a panini shop, a burger grill, a taco shack, a sushi bar with bento boxes, a noodle bar, a soup and salad stand, and a 24-hour American diner.
It’s early. You’re still a bit blurry and coffee is the only thing you can focus on right now. Luckily our Coffee Shop isn’t far, exclusively pouring one of the most satisfying, and tasty brews we’ve ever had, from direct-trade pioneers, Intelligentsia Coffee. It’s like your favorite coffee shop with the best almond milk, double shot, latte you’ve ever had just with ocean views.
A selective beer drinker’s go-to, Draught Haus features eight seasonal on tap varieties plus a wide range of artisanal bottles. This part British pub, part modern craft brewery inspired taproom, provides plenty of chill eclectic places to sit back and sip, or just grab a growler for those ‘bring your brew with you’, kind of days. Chill, casual but discerning beer connoisseur approved.
Our curated champagne lounge, Sip, was designed to satisfy many needs. Craving a posh early breakfast, high tea in the afternoon or caviar and an effervescent nightcap in the evening? Whatever the time, you can be sure bubbly will be on the menu all day at this glamorous lounge for Sailors in need of a sparkly refresher.
The two-story, three bar space, named after Richard’s first recording studio, is inspired by a classic theatrical zeitgeist – layered with a moody & sexy ‘70s, punk vibe. Ground-breaking shows will kick the night off before it transitions into a mind-blowing nightclub.
With smooth curves and nautical details, we’ve created a pool deck with the sophisticated glam of a contemporary yacht. Whether you’re looking for mornings spent sunbathing in one of our daybeds, or letting last night’s choices melt away as you glide through the water — our pool club is a serene space for ultimate relaxation.
Our private beach club in Bimini, Bahamas is an experience you (literally) can’t get anywhere else. It’s like if Mykonos had a love affair with St. Tropez — the energy intentionally amplifying as the day goes on. You can choose between ecstacy-inducing DJ sets, quiet beach-lounging with a perma-cocktail in hand, or embrace your inner explorer and seek out secluded and undiscovered corners of the island.
Our larger-than-life entertainment space is the first ever transformational, multi-form theater at sea. Boundary-pushing performances on the traditional Proscenium stage or late-night dance parties on the flat-floor configuration — undiscovered experiences are always unfolding here. Designed by renowned theater design consultants, Auerbach Pollock Friedlander — we’ve created a unique and flexible (while still being intimate) theater space that delivers a sea of possibilities.
Have your best lead, diva, vocalist look on point for when you plan a night with friends in this modernist take on a Japanese style karaoke room. With song choices that span decades, genres, and octave abilities, these bookable private sessions require having your go-to tracks chosen, singing voice warm and invited friends ready for a private dance and song battle to remember.
Sailors can get lost in sound at Voyage Vinyl, our record shop at sea. Stocked with music magazines, headphones and record players, Sailors can pull up to a listening station with a stack from the selection of both classic and current albums including special and limited editions. It’s the analog experience at sea audiophile dreams are made of.
#Burn, #Build, #Balance or #Bike; we’ve got everything you could possibly want. Fear not, our little fitness fanatic — we’ve got you covered. We’ve got an outdoor running track, a variety of weights so you leave stronger than you arrived, yoga to balance your chi, and cycling classes that rival your studio at home.
Designed with the aesthetic of athletic social clubs of the past, our club incorporates not just an active Training Camp room and boxing classes — but a basketball court and a cold-pressed juice bar. Indulging in your competitive side with friends while sipping a carrot-ginger-echinacea juice — it’s the best of both wellness worlds just a few feet away from one another.
If vacation for you isn’t complete without the ultimate form of self-care, our spa will be your second home. From massages so good they’ll make you question life itself, to a mudroom that will revitalize your soul and body, we call it Redemption for a reason. Redeem yourself from last night, last month or last year…or just redeem yourself because you want to. You earned this.
Nothing marks a life-bending vacation experience, like coming home with body art that will bring you back to a time when you were truly living. We’ve teamed up with World Famous Tattoo Ink, Soho Ink and Freshly Inked Magazine to open our own tattoo studio on board. The historical roots of tattoo art can be traced back to sailors celebrating nautical milestones like a first time crossing the equator, crossing the atlantic or mementos of epic voyages. Inspired by that beauty and tradition, we celebrate creative self-expression, tales of adventure and unforgettable life experiences.
Oh, um, hi, did we hear you’d like to perfect tree pose under the Caribbean sun? Because wow, you actually… can. Located on our upper level deck, we provide a yoga, meditation and stretch-based space that allows you to find yourself in complete tranquility… you just happen to get to #findyourself with the most gorgeous ocean backdrop possible.
Our signature, Virgin-red running track forms a halo-like vision over the ship allowing Sailors to sweat, strut or skate. Because for some of us, the only kind of running we do is from our problems. And don’t forget the SPF — because our track is outside and the Caribbean sun, unlike your problems, will catch up with you no matter how fast you run.
After working up a sweat or standing around thinking about maybe, possibly working up a sweat, restore yourself by hopping in our Well-being Pool. Boost your performance (or your performance of a performance) with a fresh cold-pressed juice served at the Gym and Tonic bar. And then there’s MyBeast — an artistic adult playground and fitness apparatus designed by Equilibria — which will add a Venice Beach-like atmosphere to the Well-being Pool.
Since you’re going to be feeling good as hell, you might as well look it, too. From blowouts in our Dry Dock blowout bar to rocking the Picassos of nail art, this is the spot to come and unleash your inner sea siren (or merman).
Really no better way to immortalize your trip at sea than with a tat. Skull and bones or a very cute English bulldog cuddling a tiny cat? Our tattoo artists gotchu.
We always want all of our Sailors to feel comfortable. We encourage you to wear more than a bathing suit if you go to a restaurant and kindly consider shoes, but your style is your style. Who are we to judge?
We have a limited number of cabins available for Sailors with special needs or reduced mobility. Please book early and specify all of your required accommodations to our Sailor Services Crew, your travel agent or in your online booking.
Our expansive food and beverage offerings should be able to accommodate most dietary needs and requests, but be sure to ask our Sailor Services Crew before you sail regarding any specific requests or allergy concerns. Please note, we are NOT an allergen-free kitchen.
