Is Scarlett Night Overrated? #virginvoyages #cruisevlog
The Ultimate Guide to Scarlet Night on a Virgin Voyages cruise! 🎉🚢✨
Welcome back! Tonight, join us as we dive headfirst into Scarlet Night - Virgin Voyages’ ultimate party at sea. We’ll take you along as the ship transforms, starting mid-afternoon with tentacles, epic decorations, and an electric atmosphere building up to an unforgettable night!
First stop: dining at the stunning Pink Agave! 🌮🍹 We’ll show you around this gorgeous Mexican-inspired restaurant, where we indulged in delectable small plates, chicken enchiladas, and a beautiful roasted duck mole. This spot’s moody vibes and Insta-worthy entrance make it one of our favorite dining experiences on board!
Then, the real fun begins! From a lively gathering at The Roundabout (don’t worry, we’ve got our thoughts on the sound system there!) to the hilariously fun mock wedding and secret parties with the Happenings Cast - Scarlet Night is full of surprises! Finally, it’s time for the legendary pool party! 🌊💃 Expect plenty of music, dancing, and - if you’re close enough to the pool - a splash of Scarlet Night spirit.
Reflecting on our first Scarlet Night, we’ll share some top tips to make sure you don’t miss out on any of the fun. Hint: it’s all about location! We’ve come a long way from grabbing a quiet pizza on that first cruise, and we’re here to help you enjoy every moment Virgin Voyages has to offer.

wow looks amazing enjoy !
It’s stunning here. Hope you’re doing well. You’re on your cruise now aren’t you? Hope you’re enjoying it 😁
Looking forward for cruise on Anthem of the Sea in feb 2025.
Such a great ship! Hope you enjoy it! The solarium is so nice!
Re Arvia, I was on the maiden voyage to the Caribbean, it was an absolute nightmare, I have been on other cruises, so I can make a comparison, hopefully things will have improved since then.
We did hear that one was pretty bad. We can’t compare because we didn’t sail on that one, we did enjoy our time in Arvia though and would go back on.
i need new blogs............................................Mxx
We’ve got a trip in just over a weeks time so new content coming 😎 Hope you’re doing well Maurice 😃
@@GetLostWithBenAndGareth Keeping thank you.......Mxx
I spent 9 night on Arvia on my first ever cruise. I loved every minute on it. We never had a problem with sun beds and all in all was one of the best holidays I've been on. A few kids but they don't want to be doing what adults do so was never a problem. I don't understand the hate the ship gets.
Glad to see you had a great time. We really loved the ship.
Why is Royal so cheap on the xbox consoles? Can't they splash a bit more for Series X consoles
Hey, hope you’re well. Maybe they’ll replace and upgrade in a dry dock?
i don't see how they can compare it to anything like that, i was on a 4 night on her and it was absolutely brilliant, really enjoyed it.
Hello 👋 we loved it too. Glad you did, such a great ship.
I’m going on the 7th December 2024
That’s awesome! Hope you have a fantastic cruise. Such a great ship 😎😃
The blackjack tables had automatic shuffling machines or were they hand shuffled?
Hello, so we’re not blackjack players I’m afraid so we’re not sure.
Can you make a virgin cocktail at Bionic Bar?
Absolutely, it’d be much cheaper from one of the main bars though. But they do cater for alcohol free at the bionic bar.
@ Thank you! We are going to Alaska on Anthem in June and the Solarium looks like it might be my favorite hang out spot. Your videos have been very helpful in letting me know what to expect.
Oh wow! I bet that’s going to be absolutely incredible!! Sure you’ll have a brilliant time. The solarium is so nice! Can stay nice and warm while looking out at the beautiful surroundings.
It's not the ship, it's the passengers.
Honestly, we’ve come across good and not so good passengers on all of the lines we’ve sailed on. In our opinion it’s unfair to pin down Arvia as being a ship that attracts bad passengers. It’s the luck of the draw on any sailing really. Thanks for watching all the same. ☺️🥂🚢☀️
Another great review. You guys are adorable 🙏 looking forward to your next one.
Thank you, hope you’ve had a great day 😃😎🥂
Great review. Looking forward to your next one. Thanks 👍
Thank you, very kind to say 😄🥂
Thanks Guys... reassured us. weve booked for January and was getting concerned due to reviews. Great review, put our minds to rest!
Our pleasure Matt, glad it’s helped. We absolutely loved our sailing in Arvia. Hope you’ve made use do too. It’s a great ship.
Good video. My favorite part is the "bus stop" for smoking, which you didn't show.
Thank you, ah yes, we don’t smoke so didn’t think to go there. We’ll remember for the next one, thanks for the comment. Really appreciate it 😃😎
I’m about to join this ship as an hairdresser and so this was very helpful to me ❤ Though I wish you had entered the salon 😄 Thank you! Love from India!
Ahh how exciting! Glad you enjoyed the tour and hope you’ve have fun hairdressing aboard the beautiful Iona. If you’re still on by the time we next go onto Iona we will be sure to pop in and say hi! 🥂🥳🚢☀️🏔️
@ Thank you for your lovely wishes! And yes it would be so wonderful to meet you’ll on board!! Looking forward to it! 🤩❤️ All the best for your future endeavours!
Completely wrong about best time for whales. Orcas only come late October to January. Blue whales, minke and fin whales are May to September.
Right, we stand corrected! 🫣😂
SO good boys! hugs!
Thank you 😁 hope you’re having a great weekend
Another great blog, loved it all....................................Mxx
Thanks so much! It was a lot of fun to film and put together as you can imagine! 🥳🚢☀️🥂
Thanks for showing us Pink Agave. That and Gunbae were the two restaurants never got to. Our Scarlet Night was in the Manor and the Red Room due to the weather, so it was good to see how a Scarlet Night looks on deck. Great video 😁👍
Ahh our pleasure! Sorry it was brief! Too many margarita’s! 😂 It’s definitely worth a go next time you are onboard. GUNBAE is definitely worth a go too! Thanks for watching! 🥂☀️🚢🏝️
Great job guys. Finished second Valiant Lady cruise last week. Rain and rough seas didn't put a damper on our cruise. The ship rode out the rough weather magnificently. First cruise, Scarlet Night rocking it at the pool. Second cruise because of weather, the Red Room turned into a huge rage raver most awesome with the sound system and lights and the beat. A fabulous cruise.
Thanks so much for the support! 🍻 Sorry to hear about the naff weather but so good to hear it didn’t dampen your spirits. We LOVE the pool party but we’d equally love to see a Scarlet night done in the Red Room too one day! Thanks for watching! 🥳🥂🚢☀️🏝️
Loved it guys! scarlet night is by far our favourite night ❤️❤️❤️
Ahh thanks guys! It’s our favourite too! So Much Fun! 🥰🍻🚢🥳☀️
Just wondering if the drinks packages are worth it as it will be our first trip ?
Hello 👋 Our simple answer is, no not really. We’ve saved loads by not having one while still enjoying a bevvy, or six… However, for the longer answer… it really depends on the line you’re on as some lines are really expensive vs others. Also, how much you’re likely to drink. Cruise Mummy has a great drinks package calculator that we’ve used before and would 100% recommend.
Just catching up with you guys; very informative. How far advanced had you booked thing like shows, pay for restaurants and the afternoon tea. Before boarding?
Hey! Thanks for watching and great to hear your finding them informative! 🥂 You can normally start booking restaurants and some of the shows from 2 weeks before your sailing. (Sometimes they release slightly earlier so keep an eye). Let us know if you have any other questions and we will do our best to help. Have a great evening! 🥳🚢☀️🏝️
@GetLostWithBenAndGareth Thank you guys. I'm on Arvia this December so doing all my research now.
@@mikeainsworth5840 Very wise! Hope you have a fantastic time. We’re very envious! 🚢🏝️☀️🍻✈️
Hi 👋 ben and Gareth, I am going on the Barbados cruise in January, what currency will I need to take with me when visiting the islands, Thank you 😊
Hey Annie, hope you have a brilliant time come January! (We’re sure you will!) When we went we used US dollars. 🚢☀️🏝️🥂
@@GetLostWithBenAndGareth Thank you, I am really enjoying your videos 😍
Just got off and the ship is great. Like any cruise it is up to you to enjoy it.
Glad to hear that, we absolutely agree. 😄🛳️😍
Great video guys! The swing looks fun!! Loving the series so far 🥳
Ahh cheers boys! Much appreciated! 🥳🥂🚢
Great vlog. Amsterdam central is SO much nice during the day, of an evening it’s best to avoid it. If you go back, the food in the ‘swing’ bar is excellent
Thank you, we really it there. The swing was a lot of fun. Will have to do the VR thing next time too.
Lovely boys!
That's me at 13:25 stardom at last , agreed it was a good meal with great company 🙂
Great company for sure, hope you’re both doing well 😁🥂
@@GetLostWithBenAndGareth All good thanks, I need another cruise though, roll on Christmas week
Not too long now at all. Does sound like a great cruise
Love the energy of you guys
Thanks Wayne! Hope you’ve had a great week 😁
Another good video for our Friday night! Don’t think I could go on the swing though!! We went on a Christmas light river cruise last year when we went on a cruise to Amsterdam which was nice. Shortly after, someone asked us if we had a lighter and then when we said no, they asked if we wanted cocaine! 😂
Haha! Amsterdam is a funny place isn’t it. The river cruise must have been great. Great way to see the city. The swing was great, a little nerve wracking but mostly fun
Another great blog, loved it all...................................Mxx
Thanks Maurice. Hope you’ve had a great week
Great video guys you keep thinking about doing a virgin voyage but really unsure but you made It look great fun so maybe put it on our agenda. The splash of romance package seems really good value. Glad you enjoyed yourself.
Thanks Paul! Much appreciated! Yeah we’d recommend Virgin Voyages to anyone to be honest. So much fun! And yes, the Splash Of Romance package is awesome. Worth every penny in our view! 🥳 Thanks for watching! 🚢☀️🥂🥳
Thanks for watching everyone! What would you recommend us to do next time we head to Amsterdam?
Going on Arvia soon so watched your video. “The scissors” Can I ask how big they were please and at what point were you made aware by security. I have a pair of 6 inch long scissors in my wash bag. Been on dozens of fly cruises with them correctly packed in my suitcase. Never been an issue. Never been stopped. Were the scissors you were stopped with bigger than those. On a Southampton cruise I know you have to drop off your suitcase and walk with your hand luggage to the personal security with the x ray scanners etc. Am I right to assume that they brought your suitcase to the scanner area before you boarded the ship. Thank you
Hello 👋 ah this was a funny experience. So they were about the same, but the very sharp fabric scissors not packed. I had a loose thread in a shirt and threw them in my suitcase before leaving. So potentially what caused the issue. I had checked my suitcase in and as it went through the x ray while we were waiting to board I was then called to security.
I can agree with you
Hi thanks for the video, yes I've been on Arvia too and thoroughly enjoyed it, Fantastic ship, but I must say I do prefer Iona I just thought the whole feel of Iona was better
Thank you for watching! Yeah Iona is beautiful. I think she’s very well suited to the Norway sailings she does. Arvia is great in the sunny climates with the swim up bar and that. I guess what swings Arvia for me (Gareth) is the daily Yorkshire Puddings… I could live on them! 😂🥳🍻🚢☀️🏝️
😂
Thanks for watching! 🥂🚢🥳
We've just returned from a holiday on Arvia around the Med. Whilst there are a few negative concerns around service queues in coffee lounges at busy times, there are so many positives. Overall, we had a great time and would book again.
Ahh glad to hear you enjoyed it overall. We agree coffee queue wise. It’s the same on Iona in the mornings especially. Thanks for watching! 🥳☀️🥂🏝️🚢
I spent I week on that ship and have no idea where ‘the loose cannon’ or the video arcade is. Great vlog boys, can’t wait for the rest in the series
Haha, ah cheers Lee. It’s at the back of the social club! Good excuse to go back I say..! 😂 Thanks for watching and for your support. 🥂🥳🚢☀️
Looks an amazing trip guys. Thanks for sharing :)
Thanks Nick, was a great cruise. Bit short for so much fun 🤩
First time viewer and I can officially say that Ben is my new favorite thing!
Looks so much fun 🤩
It really was! 🥳 Thanks for watching 🍻🚢☀️
What a great video; thank you! My fiancé and I are watching together and she’s desperate to go on a Virgin Voyage and do all the things she’s seen you do … me? I can’t think of anything worse😮 I love going on cruises but VV is too “full on” for me, I’m way too much of an introvert to board a VV cruise.
Ahh thank you! VV can be pretty full on for sure but they don’t force you into things you don’t want to do. Even on Scarlett Night, there’s venues you can go to on the night that way more relaxed and chill. If you ever decide to give it a go, the best advise we could give would be to avoid going for the shorter trips. In our experience and they are busier and I guess a bit more booze “cruisey” 🍻
I felt the same as you, but I can't wait to go back on one. We didn't get involved in any of the parties or entertainment just did our own thing and it was great. The food is fantastic.
I loved your as always, great fun......................................Mxx
Thanks so much Maurice! Hope you are keeping well! 🥳🥂🚢☀️ x
Great to see you back !!! Looking forward to the series 😊
Ahh thank you very much! Good to be back. We had a blast filming it as you can imagine! Have a great weekend. 🍻🥳🚢☀️🏝️
Did game of thrones have lots of sea horses? 🤣🐉🎠
I will maintain it’s a dragon until the day I die 😅
Not sure how I haven't seen this video before now. This is one of the most useful Arvia video's I've seen so far - well done to both of you on this one!
Ah thank you Fraser, very kind of you to say. Hope you’re having a great end to the week 😄
YES Arvia really is that bad and more !
Ahh… sad to hear you didn’t have a good experience. 😔 What was it that you didn’t like?
