I just went on this ship at the beginning of March for 4 nights. There were people from 18 to people in their 80's. I saw more people over 40 than younger. I am 62 and had a blast. Just go and have fun. Don't worry about what anyone may think.
I am a happy solo 64 and not into the singles scene. I was on the fence about Virgin. Your review helped me decide to just do it! Love my kids and grand kids but all adult looks great for my "me" time.
My wife and I generally go on cruises in late October-early November and January-February. Regardless of the cruise line, you won't find many kids on board during those times. Just avoid when schools are out for summer or holidays.
I don’t know about late October - early November. I was on Voyager of the Seas for a Halloween cruise (Oct 30 to Nov 4) this year and there were many kids. While early December I’ve not noticed a lot of kids.
I’ve loved all my sailing holidays on RCCL, Celebrity and Cunard but none come close to the amazing cruise experiences I’ve had on my two Virgin voyages… honestly, treat yourself, it so much fun
Wife and I went last February and had a lot of fun, but won't go back, we thought there would be topless at the pool, not one. We are going on the Temptation cruise in February this time, it will be a blast.
100% agreed. I was actually restrained and sent to the crowes nest (basically the onboard prison) for public masturbation - NEWSFLASH - the girl was over 18 AND had the straps to her bikini undone as she was sunbathing facing down (yes, we know that she was inviting me) I ended up being arrested in Miami, FL. Never again, cruise was 3/10
We went on Virgin Voyage 8 day cruise a week before you. We went with another couple and we all loved the entertainment, room and food. Our ages range from 60 - 65 and have both been married for 41 years each. Our room was 10190Z Mid ship sea terrace it was a great room and location. Our friends room was 9290A forward Sea Terrace and they loved this room also. Both were very close to elevators and located in central location to everything. The only thing that we didn't like was you had to book reservations for all dinner and shows.
We sailed on the Scarlet Lady with a group of friends and loved it. We are both 60 and like to have fun and wish we knew about Virgin before we booked our trip with another cruise line to Greece in August. Highly recommend!
I’m about your age and I think I prefer a more traditional line. I don’t think I would like the entertainment, but I love the idea of no buffet and being able to eat in any of the restaurants.
Thanks for the review. This doesn't sound like the ship for us, but it's wonderful that there are all kinds of cruises out there for all kinds of people.
Great review! Going 4/2024 and can not wait. I feel like this ship is for adults who live life a little outside the box and go out of their own comfort zone. It's all adults people, you have nothing to hide. I don't think I'll be a regular on Virgin but am excited to see everything!
My roommate and I are doing our first Virgin cruise in Southern Caribbean out of San Juan. We love to dance and interact with others and make new friends. Cannot wait!!
@@marklamp8354 funny, that’s the itinerary that led me to this video. Celebrating my birthday and first vacation as a single man in over 10yrs so figure might be the best option to meet likeminded people.
If you want to stretch your comfort zone (and get your highest viewed video ever) book a Bliss Cruise. Did it once, not sure if I would ever do it again, but it was memorable, crowd was extroverted, friendly without agenda, happy energy was infectious. Guessing was 1/2 pineapple and 1/2 couples like us trying something different.
@@ruthadams7133it's a lifestyle friendly, clothing optional cruise. They do theme nights every night, have play rooms to do as your heart desires with your partner. Basically, it's probably rhe sexiest cruise you could ever take. We're actually taking over 1st Bliss cruise in November. We cannot wait.
I went on the Scarlet Lady a couple of weeks ago. I have cruised on a few of the major cruise lines and I was curious about VV. I have to say that as solo sailor, I found many places to just chill when I didn't feel like participating. The activities were fun to watch. I am in my 60's and was not offended; I just left if I felt uncomfortable. Virgin is doing everything differently, and it was a pretty good experience. Getting reservations to dine was my only complaint. I loved room service; they found me even when not in my room. And leaving the ship was just so fast and easy. Good for Virgin for being different!
I had an absolute blast on my cruise in February, going again in July. Soloed the first time and taking my 20yo son this time. I didn't notice anything risque, but I wasn't looking for it either. I think if you want risque you can find it but for the most part it's just a bunch of normal people wanting to have fun and relax for a week. I'm hooked!
It is a wonderful cruise line. I am 72 years old and I did enjoy the cruise. Definitely is for adult and open mind people but it is fun and nothing that offended me. The service and attention was excellent!
I’m sailing solo over Christmas on RL and the main reason I’m doing so is the solo cabin. I’m not a party person and I’m not one for being up (in public) all night. But a cruise is what you make it, so I’m sure it’ll be lovely no matter the cruise line.
How was it? I've been been on a cruise. I'd also be traveling alone and I'm pretty shy. I don't really care for large crowds and I don't like small talk. In other words I'm not much of a people person. Taking a cruise sounds like a terrible idea for me but I've always wanted to try it.
@@lobbyrobby absolutely loved it. The solo cabin was one of the most cozy-comfy cabins I’ve ever been in. I was on Resilient Lady and enjoyed every moment. I took a few books and had a really relaxing holiday. I joined in a few activities but didn’t feel that I had to or that I missed out by not going to the shows. I’d highly recommend going on a cruise solo. They really do look after you and I was given the info for solo cruisers get togethers though I didn’t feel the need to do those as I’m not a people person and hate small talk because I never know what to talk about and no one ever seems to want to talk about the universe or black holes or dinosaurs etc.
@@andreagriffiths3512 thanks for the reply. I'll have to try it someday. I think some of my shyness and anti social issues is me building it up in head and being afraid of nothing. I just need to stop over thinking simple things.
Just come back off a Virgin Voyage- there was a big spread of ages onboard from young to old. I think the hype around it makes it out to be a party booze cruise but we found it to be a nice mix of parties and chilled events. We loved it and would definitely do another Virgin Voyage again!
I loved your review! DH and I consider ourselves Gen X I’m early 40’s and him barely 50. I think we would totally enjoy this cruise as we raised 4 children in our 20’s and 30’s and now that they are all grown up….. it’s our time to enjoy life together as a couple. Thank you again and I look forward to your upcoming reviews of this cruise ship!
We was on the VL just a few weeks ago. Was a great cruise. Was 8 nights of meeting people from all over the world. We sailed out of Miami. Was more string bikinis then you could shake a stick at. Not a place for the jealous type. lol
Great video - spot on. Just returned from our first Virgin cruise. A lot of great attributes (beautiful ship design, phenomenal food, excellent staff) but the constant loud blaring of GenX music at the pools and common areas every single day killed it for us. It was almost impossible to find a quiet place away from it to just bask in the sun. The younger people liked it, just not for us. We took in only a few shows (music artists), not interested in the adult content ones. No judgment, just preferred the traditional stuff. The best venue on Scarlet Night was the DJ on Deck 7 who provided a great variety of dancing music - so fun. Agree that you can party hard or not. Our cabin was quiet and the balcony provided a wonderful sea view retreat.
I’m 65 and I absolutely LOVED Virgin. Went on an 8 day cruise. The crew is fantastic. The cruise ship is very classy and the food is to die for. I wasn’t into some of the shows but everything else was top notch.
Great review! We just took our first Virgin cruise on the Resilient Lady and really enjoyed it. We agree that it can really be for all ages. Megan and I were often going to bed early bc we were exhausted from all the day activities, but never heard anyone after 10 or 11pm. Overall 10/10 cruise!
My girlfriend is on The Valiant Lady now and she is having a blast. It is probably the same cruise you're on. Please keep your reviews coming. They are absolutely terrific.
We just sailed on VL then March 19-25 sailing ( i think i recognize some people we saw in your video) and we have never had such a great vacation! We rebooked for next year. We love how nontraditional it was. We were not party animals, in fact we skipped scarlet night pool party. We didint see anything you would not see on a cable tv show etc.
I have never really considered a cruise (always been a landlubber) but could probably do an adults only cruise. The entertainment looks pretty kische, but I guess its better in person maybe. Nice review, you look at the way I probably would.
Thank you again for doing such an informative and detailed video! Our friends want to go on a couples cruise and they picked out Virgin. I'm loyal to my Royal Caribbean and feared that Virgins since it's adults only would, would be a Lil risqué for me. But thanks to your video i think i might be comfortable enough to go. Since you said that they have toned it down from how it used to be before, and it's not like there are a bunch of naked ppl. We have kids and it would be a refresher to enjoy sone time alone without kids.
Nice review! I’ve seen some videos of this cruise line that seemed just like a big party. Glad that it doesn’t have to be. Still not the cruise line for me! And that’s ok! Otherwise, we wouldn’t have other choices if everyone wanted the same kind of experience!
I found on Virgin when we did the Ibiza cruise that on the overnight stay in Ibiza, there was 1 activity on and 1 bar open on the WHOLE ship! They were really trying to push you to go and party in Ibiza, not even the club on the ship was open. Something that you wouldn't find on other cruise lines in my opinion.
I was so glad to hear your review. I was a travel agent for over a decade. I have been on just about every cruise line either by sailing with them or doing a TA cruise inspection . But Virgin wasn't around when I left the industry. I'm child free so I love the idea of no kids. I just wasn't sure about it. Someone told me it was like the Henidosm resort on a ship. I did a chartered 80s heavy metal cruise several years ago and that was definitely a wild ship. Our pajama party was the naughty nighty party. But that was a decade ago, 80 pounds lighter, and I was single. But after watching your review, I would be willing to give it a try.
The most Risqué cruise I took was a nude cruise from Denmark to Norway thru the forges. it was pretty laid back and fun. Surprisingly its a good was a good way to meet other people.
@@billmago7991 Totally agree. Several years ago I hosted a exchange students (boys) from Denmark and Sweden. They were shocked to see alot of the girls in the school were fat and overweight. They did like the desk being alot bigger. We went to walmart and counted the first 10 people to walk in (did not take that long) 7 of them were either overweight or very obese. Not scientific but proves United States is a "big" country
We sailed our of Barcelona on Virgin in June of 2022. Honestly, other than we didn't see any kids, I didn't think it was much different than any other cruise line we have sailed, and we sail about twice a year. We've done some pretty wild private charter cruises, and this was nothing like those. Unless you're just a real prude, I don't think anyone would have a problem with the shows and atmosphere on the ship.
So glad you like the cruise. Did not know what you were going to say about it. It was nice to meet you. I really enjoy your posts. We had a great time and would definitely go again actually we are booked for the Mediterranean in September.
VV at one point said that their average age to that time was 47 with a range of 18-90s. Cruises longer than 7 nights do tend to skew older. I believe that you are cruising in March, so may be getting some of the spring break crowd. I really liked (and totally agree) with your discussion that the entertainment is "up to the edge, but not beyond it." I'm in my 60s and a bit conservative, and there was plenty to do...and yes, the drag queen events were totally advertised that way. The best thing for us was no kids trashing beverage stations, rushing elevators, pushing every button, etc. Overall, and excellent overview.....and I agree with what you have said.
@@LifeWellCruised my wife are morning people and not so party-oriented. So I think we’ll stick with Princess and similar lines. But it’s good to know what the others are like.
@@richardgotshall2703 myself and mom did the sunrise yoga on valiant. I cant imagine any other cruise line having 7am events??? Our mornings were packed and we did the 9am spinning and 10am zumba class. There is also the 80s aerobic class. And 12 noon zumba. I dont know how morning you want to be??? But virgin burns the candles at both ends. My mom went to bed early and no noise for her
@@richardgotshall2703 also if you are in the med etc the ship docks at sunrise...so you can get off at 7 or 8 am. Breakfast is 24 hour and brunch in the wake and razzle dazzle starts 8am.
Almost booked a cruise with Virgin but the only thing stopping me was the short cruises! Most I saw were 5 day, a few 6 but that's it. To go on a cruise for us is a luxury as we live in the desert and have to fly, book a port hotel, transfers etc so for us to make worth our time it has to be 7days or longer. I do like the idea of "adults " only but will have to see if they change up the length, looking forward to your food review, oh and have fun!
Also the med cruises are all 7 days. You could do the transatlantic 15 day and do back to back on a med cruise...or do the caribbean cruise before. Thats what we did and spent 3 weeks on valiant in oct
I will be interested to see a more extended version of this. I was wondering about for virgin I don’t think it’s for me but I’m going to hold off until I see your next video. Enjoy your cruise
Hi Ilana! I enjoy most of your videos, finding them useful,informative and yeah entertsining.. you do a good job of presenting cruising and how to have a more enjoyable time onboard and at sea.. I wish your term of "open minded" didn't seem to exclude someone like myself who might be a bit more conservative in my tastes.. I have no problem having options (like the Quest) available to those who enjoy it, it would be nice not be categorized as not open minded if that isn't my cup of tea.. I don't think that is at all what you intended, but these days well.... anyway keep up your videos, I will continue to watch,enjoy and learn.. Happy Ssiling!!
I agree it wasn’t the best way to say what I meant. I absolutely know that people can be very open minded and not enjoy this type of entertainment. Thanks for watching and taking time to comment:)
I’m interested in virgin cruise line but I thought there wasn’t alot of people in their mid 20s (my age) and more of an older audience. Happy to hear that’s not the case. Hopefully they go out of New York sometime so I can try it. Thank you for the information!
We did a cruise on Scarlet Lady in September. We didn’t mind the “adult” aspects of the cruise at all. What we did mind was the poor service in many areas and hit or miss drinks and food that we were served. Our first clue that something was wrong was when I tried to make reservation just as we boarded. Nothing to be had for the entire voyage.We got on the ship at our scheduled time. It difficult for me to believe that every reservable activity on the cruise was already sold out. We went straight to Sailor Services. That had no way to access the reservation system so the guy there actually tried to make reservations using my phone with no results. He shrugged his shoulders and said “Everything must be full already.” He told us that his supervisor knew a lot more than he did and that he would have her call me. She did not. We found this to be typical of our experience on Scarlet Lady. We didn’t get to go to any shows. We were able to get into a couple of reservation only restaurants by just showing up and skiing if they could seat us. We had warm drinks that should have been cold and bars that should have been comfortable that required cold weather clothing. Surprise! We didn’t bring any on a Caribbean cruise. We did love some things about the ship. 😊We loved our balcony stateroom and even the tiny bathroom with a gigantic shower. We like the “Grab and Go “ boxes of snacks available around the ship. The Virgin app never really seemed to work. I bought the pricier and supposedly faster internet for myself. My wife chose not to. Her free internet in head to head test of data rates was exactly the same speed as mine. I liked the fundamental idea of Virgin Voyages but I think they need to work on their execution.
@@brandcoachtoni Probably more than a sweater would be required to be comfortable. My wife bought a super expensive hoodie from one of the stores on the ship and she was still cold. I generally don’t mind the cold but this was ridiculous. I think many of the issues we experienced were related to a large influx of new/inexperienced crew and large increase in occupancy on our particular cruise. I was told that they had gone from 50% on the previous sailing to about 85% on ours 5 days later. I liked a lot about the cruise but overall the competence that we generally experience on other cruise lines just wasn’t there. I expect that they will get there. I doubt that I can convince my wife to try them again so I may never find out.
So agree, we just went in December, found it very blah and stripped down. Not much luxury, battle ship like. Dinner food good, galley limited and repetitive. Entertainment was like a high school gymnasium production. Drinks were good, cabin was nice not wow. Odessy of the seas next!
I sailed on the Valiant Lady on March 5-11, went on my own but had a great time, the food was awesome and the shows were great. Having no kids around was a plus as was the lack of mobility scooters, yes there was a couple but hardly saw them. I couldn’t really fault much at all although it would have been nice to have a better venue for karaoke. I’m the same age as yourself and definitely felt I was on the older side of the median age but didn’t feel out of place. Was it worth flying 20+ hours to Miami from Australia? Absolutely!
@@LifeWellCruised we have been cruising since 1993 and we are 70 years old… We love to dance and everything but I'm not sure that's the kind of dancing we would love to do… Lol
Sure it does not. “Premium” in one word is space. In two words - space and amenities. In three words…. This ship is a reprocessed Carnival Conquest class as we look at space ratio. In fact the space ratio is worse than Carnival d/t class division.
I’m not sure how the ship is designed for 50+. I’d say it was designed for “younger” but it’s definitely not priced at Carnivals rates (or a similar line), so I’d agree the price is attracting an age group that has the budget
@@cruiseadmiral lol have you seen the rockstar suites? They are huge. Myself and mom spent 3 weeks on valiant and plenty of room for us sharing a room. But then my mom is a fit 64 yr old and we are not overweight. The amenities in the shower cost £30 each to buy...top notch british shampoo/conditioner and shower gel. I dont care as we only want to travel with open minded people. Ive a high paying tech job in ireland with PhD in chemistry and carnival wouldnt be my type of people. But i and mom fit into virgin voyages. We enjoyed the sauna/steam room and the classy Sip lounge with a green tea and bottle of Moët champagne
Yup that is pretty much what I expected. The big draw is not having someone else’s kids spoiling your vacation. And they do one more thing I thought of years ago. Why not have a program where you can get off the ship and stay at one of the islands and get back on the ship when it comes back a week later? Virgin does that with their private island!!!
Wife and I are members of a swinger site which has postings for a cruise called "bliss cruise". Might you know anything of them? All we heard is it's adult only, topless optional.
I agree with Kathryn below -- you likely got a spring break crowd. In my experience, there were very few people in their early 20s, a few more in their older 20s, more in their 30s, and lots in their 40s and 50s. It was a delightful crowd! Also, worth saying, I'm an introvert, and I had a wonderful time. I'm not a partier, but there were plenty of things to do. Best cruise line ever!
Virgin Voyages is The Only Cruise I’d ever take. Love Virgin Atlantic Airlines. Really loved Virgin America. Met Richard Branson twice. Love all things Virgin. Course I go to Burning Man as well. Your critique seems squeaky clean, Are you a Sunday School teacher? 🎉
After going on Carnival, I think the lack of cruise director would be weird. And there's no signage, from things I've seen. I don't mind drag shows but hubby might.
@@ladylisa0023 in what way not a good fit? My dad unfortunately passed away of cancer and so my mom and myself decided to do a valiant lady cruise in the med last year....that turned into 4 weeks and this year we have 5 weeks. Myself (42) and mom (64) do sunrise yoga, zumba, spinning, circuits classes. She runs on the track. At 11 we go for our healthy green juice. Then lunch we she has a freshly made to order greek salad. I have the avocado sushi rolls and salad. Then evening we go to the wake for a classy dinner. We get dressed up in lovely dresses and go for green tea in the Sip lounge and i have champagne. Some days we play board games together, crochet with other sailors. So much to do. Its wonderful.
@@traceymarshall5886 It works for you and your family great! I know me and I don’t think I would enjoy this cruise line for many reasons, which I am not going to share in chat. You do you! I do me. 😀
@@ladylisa0023 its true that its good that only people who really want to be and are openminded there go on it and that creates a great friendly atmosphere
Thank you for this! I am going on my first ever cruise in May, and it's the Virgin Voyage Scarlet Lady. Your videos have been so helpful for my preparation, but I was curious if you had tried VV. I look forward to your additional videos. I'm single and 43, so I think this will be a great cruise for me. Thankfully, I'm meeting other fitness instructors there for a conference as well, so there will be a great mix of activities.
Thank you for the info. Were scheduled to cruise this ship in November and I had my reservations, especially for my first cruise ever. It’s already booked so even if I don’t want to go it’s not o late.

I can imagine someone putting upside down pineapples on a door as a joke. I did put a glass with a pineapple symbol upside down just for laughs at a Carnival gift shop.
I had a great time on the cruise. I saw people from mid 20s - 70s. If you are prudish in any way it may be challenging but i felt that if something was not for me I just did not participate. I was with someone who was in their 40s who felt like the people (our age) were too old! She did not want 80s or 90s music. It is all personal choice...which is a great thing about cruising. Perspective is the definer. I enjoyed the food on this cruise. I was not as swollen on this trip as I have been on other cruise lines. Maybe the food quality. Keep in mind I still drank but felt it was a less salt and because less buffet style portions were not as crazy. Went in February and will be on another in July!
@@elouise5593 totally! I love it too! I went on this cruise with the girlfriend of my husbands friend…I just needed a travel buddy. She was cool but I could not relate to being in your 40s and not liking 80s-90s music but only the music out now. People were enjoying pajama night, dancing and singing and living their best lives!
Loving all your videos, found your channel recently and going on my 1st cruise this year so watching all I can :) Can you link that hammock type chair on your balcony?

It is a wonderful cruise line. I am 72 years old and I did enjoy the cruise. Definitely is for adult and open mind people but it is fun and nothing that offended me. The service and attention was excellent!
Wow❤
I’m sailing solo over Christmas on RL and the main reason I’m doing so is the solo cabin. I’m not a party person and I’m not one for being up (in public) all night. But a cruise is what you make it, so I’m sure it’ll be lovely no matter the cruise line.

How was it? I've been been on a cruise. I'd also be traveling alone and I'm pretty shy. I don't really care for large crowds and I don't like small talk. In other words I'm not much of a people person. Taking a cruise sounds like a terrible idea for me but I've always wanted to try it.
@@lobbyrobby absolutely loved it. The solo cabin was one of the most cozy-comfy cabins I’ve ever been in. I was on Resilient Lady and enjoyed every moment. I took a few books and had a really relaxing holiday. I joined in a few activities but didn’t feel that I had to or that I missed out by not going to the shows. I’d highly recommend going on a cruise solo. They really do look after you and I was given the info for solo cruisers get togethers though I didn’t feel the need to do those as I’m not a people person and hate small talk because I never know what to talk about and no one ever seems to want to talk about the universe or black holes or dinosaurs etc.
@@andreagriffiths3512 thanks for the reply. I'll have to try it someday. I think some of my shyness and anti social issues is me building it up in head and being afraid of nothing. I just need to stop over thinking simple things.
Thank you for this honest review! I wondered how Virgin would stack up for a married couple that aren’t necessarily the party type.
Nice to hear about single cabins and reduced rates.
You look great for 51! I am 52 and you inspired me to take my family on our first cruise coming up in April!
Thanks so much & im glad you’ve considered a family cruise!!
Just come back off a Virgin Voyage- there was a big spread of ages onboard from young to old. I think the hype around it makes it out to be a party booze cruise but we found it to be a nice mix of parties and chilled events. We loved it and would definitely do another Virgin Voyage again!
I loved your review! DH and I consider ourselves Gen X I’m early 40’s and him barely 50. I think we would totally enjoy this cruise as we raised 4 children in our 20’s and 30’s and now that they are all grown up….. it’s our time to enjoy life together as a couple. Thank you again and I look forward to your upcoming reviews of this cruise ship!
A lot of people onboard were the same. Just wanting a fun, kid free cruise with great food. Enjoy!!
GenX is between 1965 and 1980.
We was on the VL just a few weeks ago. Was a great cruise. Was 8 nights of meeting people from all over the world. We sailed out of Miami. Was more string bikinis then you could shake a stick at. Not a place for the jealous type. lol
Great video - spot on. Just returned from our first Virgin cruise. A lot of great attributes (beautiful ship design, phenomenal food, excellent staff) but the constant loud blaring of GenX music at the pools and common areas every single day killed it for us. It was almost impossible to find a quiet place away from it to just bask in the sun. The younger people liked it, just not for us.
We took in only a few shows (music artists), not interested in the adult content ones.
No judgment, just preferred the traditional stuff.
The best venue on Scarlet Night was the DJ on Deck 7 who provided a great variety of dancing music - so fun.
Agree that you can party hard or not. Our cabin was quiet and the balcony provided a wonderful sea view retreat.
Thanks for sharing your experience! I agree, some quieter areas (even the Dock) would have been nice
I’m 65 and I absolutely LOVED Virgin. Went on an 8 day cruise. The crew is fantastic. The cruise ship is very classy and the food is to die for. I wasn’t into some of the shows but everything else was top notch.
Great to hear your experience
Great review! We just took our first Virgin cruise on the Resilient Lady and really enjoyed it.
We agree that it can really be for all ages. Megan and I were often going to bed early bc we were exhausted from all the day activities, but never heard anyone after 10 or 11pm.
Overall 10/10 cruise!
My girlfriend is on The Valiant Lady now and she is having a blast.
It is probably the same cruise you're on.
Please keep your reviews coming. They are absolutely terrific.
How fun! Say hi if you see me. Hope you’re having an amazing time!
@@LifeWellCruised He isn't there, just his girlfriend, as it says in his comment.
That was a very honest assessment of Virgin cruise. Great vlog.
My daughter and son in law just sailed on VV. Loved it, but yes a little wild!
We just sailed on VL then March 19-25 sailing ( i think i recognize some people we saw in your video) and we have never had such a great vacation! We rebooked for next year. We love how nontraditional it was. We were not party animals, in fact we skipped scarlet night pool party. We didint see anything you would not see on a cable tv show etc.
Great to hear!
I have never really considered a cruise (always been a landlubber) but could probably do an adults only cruise. The entertainment looks pretty kische, but I guess its better in person maybe. Nice review, you look at the way I probably would.
Virgin is fantastic! It’s different, but the food amazing! Hope you’re having fun! ❤
Thanks for this quick review. Looking forward to the full review and also, waiting for that “sundress” video.
Lol, I’m hoping that will be out later this week
You are 51? You look AMAZING. I would have thought you were 40. Thank you so much for the review.
Im 42 so i thought she was my moms age
Awe thanks! I have a theory that everyone looks better on a cruise 😉
Thank you again for doing such an informative and detailed video! Our friends want to go on a couples cruise and they picked out Virgin. I'm loyal to my Royal Caribbean and feared that Virgins since it's adults only would, would be a Lil risqué for me. But thanks to your video i think i might be comfortable enough to go. Since you said that they have toned it down from how it used to be before, and it's not like there are a bunch of naked ppl. We have kids and it would be a refresher to enjoy sone time alone without kids.
Such a thorough, thoughtful review. Thanks as always and enjoy the rest of your time on the cruise!
Thanks Anne! I’ll share more in upcoming videos - there’s definitely a lot to know
Nice review! I’ve seen some videos of this cruise line that seemed just like a big party. Glad that it doesn’t have to be. Still not the cruise line for me! And that’s ok! Otherwise, we wouldn’t have other choices if everyone wanted the same kind of experience!
I found on Virgin when we did the Ibiza cruise that on the overnight stay in Ibiza, there was 1 activity on and 1 bar open on the WHOLE ship! They were really trying to push you to go and party in Ibiza, not even the club on the ship was open. Something that you wouldn't find on other cruise lines in my opinion.
Ibiza is a place I would enjoy a tour but not hanging around for an overnight “scene.” Thx for the info 😊
@@Buddy869-z9x I’m not sure if it was just because it was closing weekend in Ibiza (middle of October) or whether it’s always like that!
I was so glad to hear your review.
I was a travel agent for over a decade. I have been on just about every cruise line either by sailing with them or doing a TA cruise inspection . But Virgin wasn't around when I left the industry.
I'm child free so I love the idea of no kids. I just wasn't sure about it. Someone told me it was like the Henidosm resort on a ship. I did a chartered 80s heavy metal cruise several years ago and that was definitely a wild ship. Our pajama party was the naughty nighty party. But that was a decade ago, 80 pounds lighter, and I was single.
But after watching your review, I would be willing to give it a try.
Thanks for watching!
The most Risqué cruise I took was a nude cruise from Denmark to Norway thru the forges. it was pretty laid back and fun. Surprisingly its a good was a good way to meet other people.
Lol, I can imagine
To each their own!
What cruise line was this
At least in Scandinavia obesity isn't a problem.....different story in the US😂😂😂😂 YUK 😂😂😂
@@billmago7991 Totally agree. Several years ago I hosted a exchange students (boys) from Denmark and Sweden. They were shocked to see alot of the girls in the school were fat and overweight. They did like the desk being alot bigger. We went to walmart and counted the first 10 people to walk in (did not take that long) 7 of them were either overweight or very obese. Not scientific but proves United States is a "big" country
I love that it’s adult only, sounds wonderful to me. Will definitely check them out.
We are sailing with a group on Virgin Voyages in February. We can't wait to go!
We sailed our of Barcelona on Virgin in June of 2022. Honestly, other than we didn't see any kids, I didn't think it was much different than any other cruise line we have sailed, and we sail about twice a year. We've done some pretty wild private charter cruises, and this was nothing like those. Unless you're just a real prude, I don't think anyone would have a problem with the shows and atmosphere on the ship.
So glad you like the cruise. Did not know what you were going to say about it. It was nice to meet you. I really enjoy your posts. We had a great time and would definitely go again actually we are booked for the Mediterranean in September.
Great to meet you too!
Fantastic! Thank you, Ilana! I wondered what y’all would think about the cruise. Sounds like it was a good sailing!
VV at one point said that their average age to that time was 47 with a range of 18-90s. Cruises longer than 7 nights do tend to skew older. I believe that you are cruising in March, so may be getting some of the spring break crowd. I really liked (and totally agree) with your discussion that the entertainment is "up to the edge, but not beyond it." I'm in my 60s and a bit conservative, and there was plenty to do...and yes, the drag queen events were totally advertised that way. The best thing for us was no kids trashing beverage stations, rushing elevators, pushing every button, etc. Overall, and excellent overview.....and I agree with what you have said.
True this may be why so many 20s & early 30s. Lol, there was definitely no kid like behaviour
Thanks for a thoughtful and informative review. I had toyed with the idea of cruising with Virgin. You helped me decide.
Lol, which way?
@@LifeWellCruised my wife are morning people and not so party-oriented. So I think we’ll stick with Princess and similar lines. But it’s good to know what the others are like.
@@richardgotshall2703 myself and mom did the sunrise yoga on valiant. I cant imagine any other cruise line having 7am events??? Our mornings were packed and we did the 9am spinning and 10am zumba class. There is also the 80s aerobic class. And 12 noon zumba. I dont know how morning you want to be??? But virgin burns the candles at both ends. My mom went to bed early and no noise for her
@@richardgotshall2703 also if you are in the med etc the ship docks at sunrise...so you can get off at 7 or 8 am. Breakfast is 24 hour and brunch in the wake and razzle dazzle starts 8am.
Almost booked a cruise with Virgin but the only thing stopping me was the short cruises! Most I saw were 5 day, a few 6 but that's it.
To go on a cruise for us is a luxury as we live in the desert and have to fly, book a port hotel, transfers etc so for us to make worth our time it has to be 7days or longer. I do like the idea of "adults " only but will have to see if they change up the length, looking forward to your food review, oh and have fun!
We are doing the 15 day transatlantic in a few weeks. If you want to go all out resilient lady has a 45 day cruise athens to new zealand in october
Also the med cruises are all 7 days. You could do the transatlantic 15 day and do back to back on a med cruise...or do the caribbean cruise before. Thats what we did and spent 3 weeks on valiant in oct
I can understand. As mentioned below, there are some longer ones, but you’re right, most Caribbean cruises are shorter
Virgin has 14 night voyages around Europe, Australia, Asia!!!
Glad to hear you enjoyed it.
Just came back from a RC Cruise full of little kids and I’m ready for an adults only cruise 😊 Thanks for the review!
Lol I can imagine
You really do a nice job with this channel. Keep up the great work!
It’s kind of ironic that an 18+ cruise line is named Virgin.
I dk why either, but the owner and CEO also started Virgin airlines.
I know exactly why his company is called Virgin. His island is next to Little St James after all.
Richard branson and his friends were students and virgins when they //he started the college paper called virgin...
I prefer traveling on Slut ‘O The Seas cruise lines
Exactly. He is one sick individual that I hope gets brought to justice, as well as his “elite” friends.@@lyramidsummer5508
Thank you for sharing, I don’t think is for me!
I will be interested to see a more extended version of this. I was wondering about for virgin I don’t think it’s for me but I’m going to hold off until I see your next video. Enjoy your cruise
I’ll definitely share more, including pros & cons
Hi Ilana! I enjoy most of your videos, finding them useful,informative and yeah entertsining.. you do a good job of presenting cruising and how to have a more enjoyable time onboard and at sea.. I wish your term of "open minded" didn't seem to exclude someone like myself who might be a bit more conservative in my tastes.. I have no problem having options (like the Quest) available to those who enjoy it, it would be nice not be categorized as not open minded if that isn't my cup of tea.. I don't think that is at all what you intended, but these days well.... anyway keep up your videos, I will continue to watch,enjoy and learn.. Happy Ssiling!!
I agree it wasn’t the best way to say what I meant. I absolutely know that people can be very open minded and not enjoy this type of entertainment. Thanks for watching and taking time to comment:)
I’m interested in virgin cruise line but I thought there wasn’t alot of people in their mid 20s (my age) and more of an older audience. Happy to hear that’s not the case. Hopefully they go out of New York sometime so I can try it. Thank you for the information!
Lots of mid to late twenties!! :)
I agree, totally hoping they start to cruise out of NY
They did have some cruises out of new york but that was part of repositioning in 2020/2021
Great video, thanks Ilana. Can’t wait for the rest of your videos from this cruise! My next Virgin Voyage is coming up in April and another in May.
We did a cruise on Scarlet Lady in September. We didn’t mind the “adult” aspects of the cruise at all. What we did mind was the poor service in many areas and hit or miss drinks and food that we were served. Our first clue that something was wrong was when I tried to make reservation just as we boarded. Nothing to be had for the entire voyage.We got on the ship at our scheduled time. It difficult for me to believe that every reservable activity on the cruise was already sold out. We went straight to Sailor Services. That had no way to access the reservation system so the guy there actually tried to make reservations using my phone with no results. He shrugged his shoulders and said “Everything must be full already.” He told us that his supervisor knew a lot more than he did and that he would have her call me. She did not. We found this to be typical of our experience on Scarlet Lady. We didn’t get to go to any shows. We were able to get into a couple of reservation only restaurants by just showing up and skiing if they could seat us. We had warm drinks that should have been cold and bars that should have been comfortable that required cold weather clothing. Surprise! We didn’t bring any on a Caribbean cruise. We did love some things about the ship. 😊We loved our balcony stateroom and even the tiny bathroom with a gigantic shower. We like the “Grab and Go “ boxes of snacks available around the ship. The Virgin app never really seemed to work. I bought the pricier and supposedly faster internet for myself. My wife chose not to. Her free internet in head to head test of data rates was exactly the same speed as mine. I liked the fundamental idea of Virgin Voyages but I think they need to work on their execution.
So on the ship you need a sweater?
@@brandcoachtoni Probably more than a sweater would be required to be comfortable. My wife bought a super expensive hoodie from one of the stores on the ship and she was still cold. I generally don’t mind the cold but this was ridiculous. I think many of the issues we experienced were related to a large influx of new/inexperienced crew and large increase in occupancy on our particular cruise. I was told that they had gone from 50% on the previous sailing to about 85% on ours 5 days later. I liked a lot about the cruise but overall the competence that we generally experience on other cruise lines just wasn’t there. I expect that they will get there. I doubt that I can convince my wife to try them again so I may never find out.
So agree, we just went in December, found it very blah and stripped down. Not much luxury, battle ship like. Dinner food good, galley limited and repetitive. Entertainment was like a high school gymnasium production. Drinks were good, cabin was nice not wow. Odessy of the seas next!
Thanks, Alana❤️ It looks like what I was hoping! Can't wait to hear more. Can't wait to get on Virgin😊
Awesome. Another video tomorrow hopefully 😬😂
Small dining venues I noticed on our cruise with 75% full,can’t imagine what a full cruise would be like.
The crowd is well dispersed, but pool areas are crowded (as to be expected)
I sailed on the Valiant Lady on March 5-11, went on my own but had a great time, the food was awesome and the shows were great. Having no kids around was a plus as was the lack of mobility scooters, yes there was a couple but hardly saw them. I couldn’t really fault much at all although it would have been nice to have a better venue for karaoke. I’m the same age as yourself and definitely felt I was on the older side of the median age but didn’t feel out of place. Was it worth flying 20+ hours to Miami from Australia? Absolutely!
Looking forward to this video… I am one of those people wondering if virgin is for me… Lol… And my husband, of course
Haha, there are other elements that are different, but Virgin has its qualities
@@LifeWellCruised we have been cruising since 1993 and we are 70 years old… We love to dance and everything but I'm not sure that's the kind of dancing we would love to do… Lol
It was clear at the time on construction: this is a 50+ cruse line. The trick is: a mass market product is sold at premium price.
Premium doesn’t have to mean stuffy and old fashioned, like Cunard, this modern take on a premium cruise is very welcome.
Our transatlantic for sea terrace is €60 a day for sea terrace...dont know how you come up with that comment??? Im 42
Sure it does not. “Premium” in one word is space. In two words - space and amenities. In three words….
This ship is a reprocessed Carnival Conquest class as we look at space ratio. In fact the space ratio is worse than Carnival d/t class division.
I’m not sure how the ship is designed for 50+. I’d say it was designed for “younger” but it’s definitely not priced at Carnivals rates (or a similar line), so I’d agree the price is attracting an age group that has the budget
@@cruiseadmiral lol have you seen the rockstar suites? They are huge. Myself and mom spent 3 weeks on valiant and plenty of room for us sharing a room. But then my mom is a fit 64 yr old and we are not overweight. The amenities in the shower cost £30 each to buy...top notch british shampoo/conditioner and shower gel. I dont care as we only want to travel with open minded people. Ive a high paying tech job in ireland with PhD in chemistry and carnival wouldnt be my type of people. But i and mom fit into virgin voyages. We enjoyed the sauna/steam room and the classy Sip lounge with a green tea and bottle of Moët champagne
Yup that is pretty much what I expected. The big draw is not having someone else’s kids spoiling your vacation.
And they do one more thing I thought of years ago. Why not have a program where you can get off the ship and stay at one of the islands and get back on the ship when it comes back a week later? Virgin does that with their private island!!!
Thanks for the tour. I always wondered.
Also thank you for your review! I don’t think Virgin is for us 😊
Fantastic Video and Review.
Thanks for putting the effort into making this video - really appreciate it 👍
Wife and I are members of a swinger site which has postings for a cruise called "bliss cruise". Might you know anything of them? All we heard is it's adult only, topless optional.
I agree with Kathryn below -- you likely got a spring break crowd. In my experience, there were very few people in their early 20s, a few more in their older 20s, more in their 30s, and lots in their 40s and 50s. It was a delightful crowd! Also, worth saying, I'm an introvert, and I had a wonderful time. I'm not a partier, but there were plenty of things to do. Best cruise line ever!
Interesting, thanks for sharing:)
We are not late nighters but found many things we could partake in and had a lot of fun without the dance parties or bars.
Virgin Voyages is The Only Cruise I’d ever take. Love Virgin Atlantic Airlines. Really loved Virgin America. Met Richard Branson twice. Love all things Virgin. Course I go to Burning Man as well. Your critique seems squeaky clean, Are you a Sunday School teacher? 🎉
You had me at "24-hour breakfast." 😂
Millennial here. We were broke when the shutdown began, we were interviewing for jobs when the pandemic started to settle down. We're cruising now.
Very interesting. What are you looking for in a cruise vacation?
Your hair looks very nice this way.
Thanks :)
Hi llana 😊 great review, thank you ❤
Thanks for watching! 😊
After going on Carnival, I think the lack of cruise director would be weird. And there's no signage, from things I've seen. I don't mind drag shows but hubby might.
It’s different in that way. Very few announcements
I never pay attention to any cruise director. So sounds great to me😊
Never saw as many happy people with the guest and staff as I did while on board hint imagine cruising any other line
Thank you for the video. It made up my mind as to not go on a Virgin Cruise.
Lol how come? I spent 4 weeks on valiant with my mom and we have 5 weeks booked on virgin for this year
@@traceymarshall5886 It does not seem a good fit for me. I’m glad you enjoy it.
@@ladylisa0023 in what way not a good fit? My dad unfortunately passed away of cancer and so my mom and myself decided to do a valiant lady cruise in the med last year....that turned into 4 weeks and this year we have 5 weeks. Myself (42) and mom (64) do sunrise yoga, zumba, spinning, circuits classes. She runs on the track. At 11 we go for our healthy green juice. Then lunch we she has a freshly made to order greek salad. I have the avocado sushi rolls and salad. Then evening we go to the wake for a classy dinner. We get dressed up in lovely dresses and go for green tea in the Sip lounge and i have champagne. Some days we play board games together, crochet with other sailors. So much to do. Its wonderful.
@@traceymarshall5886 It works for you and your family great! I know me and I don’t think I would enjoy this cruise line for many reasons, which I am not going to share in chat. You do you! I do me. 😀
@@ladylisa0023 its true that its good that only people who really want to be and are openminded there go on it and that creates a great friendly atmosphere
Thank you for this! I am going on my first ever cruise in May, and it's the Virgin Voyage Scarlet Lady. Your videos have been so helpful for my preparation, but I was curious if you had tried VV. I look forward to your additional videos. I'm single and 43, so I think this will be a great cruise for me. Thankfully, I'm meeting other fitness instructors there for a conference as well, so there will be a great mix of activities.
I think you’ll enjoy it! I’ll share some important tips in upcoming videos
You didn’t mention the topless pool.
Have you cruised Virgin again since this trip? I’m excited to switch from RC! I’d love Bimini and Key West 😘
Great video! Looking forward to the 2nd part.
Nice video for sure. We are on this same cruise with you and didn't even know.
No way! What an end 😂. If you see me on the way out please say hi. Hope you enjoyed it!
Thank you for the info. Were scheduled to cruise this ship in November and I had my reservations, especially for my first cruise ever. It’s already booked so even if I don’t want to go it’s not o late.
I think you’ll enjoy it. Many first timers we met are
Really depends on what your definition of fun is.
So.....What is an upside down pineapple??

Love your show

Currently on board
Lots of fun to be had by all
You are missing the gym/sports classes review on this. This is a huge part of the cruise. Also the board games and social area.
It’s not a full review, just about this aspect. That will come :)
@@LifeWellCruised also the classy places like the Sip lounge cocktail and champagne bar which does afternoon tea too
I can imagine someone putting upside down pineapples on a door as a joke. I did put a glass with a pineapple symbol upside down just for laughs at a Carnival gift shop.
24/7 breakfast??? Wow so many amazing things about this ship.
Vv will definitely be my next!!
Have seen upside down pineapples on doors on Carnival cruise lines. They state, "plays well with others." Will avoid those!
I had a great time on the cruise. I saw people from mid 20s - 70s. If you are prudish in any way it may be challenging but i felt that if something was not for me I just did not participate. I was with someone who was in their 40s who felt like the people (our age) were too old! She did not want 80s or 90s music. It is all personal choice...which is a great thing about cruising. Perspective is the definer. I enjoyed the food on this cruise. I was not as swollen on this trip as I have been on other cruise lines. Maybe the food quality. Keep in mind I still drank but felt it was a less salt and because less buffet style portions were not as crazy. Went in February and will be on another in July!
I like 80s and 90s music and I am 65 years old. I was in my 20s and 30s when that music came out. I like a lot of the current music also.
There was loads in their 80s on the transatlantic and they did zumba class everyday
Thanks for sharing!
@@elouise5593 totally! I love it too! I went on this cruise with the girlfriend of my husbands friend…I just needed a travel buddy. She was cool but I could not relate to being in your 40s and not liking 80s-90s music but only the music out now. People were enjoying pajama night, dancing and singing and living their best lives!
We did our first Virgin voyage at 67 and 68 and felt very much at home.
Loving all your videos, found your channel recently and going on my 1st cruise this year so watching all I can :) Can you link that hammock type chair on your balcony?
Thanks so much! That hammock comes with the cabin :)
@@LifeWellCruised Oh that's so great of them to provide!
Virgin sell them on the ship to take home
