Think cruising is just for families or retirees? Think again. Virgin Voyages is turning the cruise industry on its head—and in all the best ways. With adults-only sailings, award-winning design, and a fresh, inclusive vibe, this isn’t your grandmother’s cruise. If you're craving ocean adventures with style, Virgin Voyages should be at the top of your travel list for 2025.
Here’s what makes it a game-changer—and why now’s the perfect time to book your spot.
🎉 Adults-Only Vibe
Let’s start with the big one: No kids allowed. All Virgin Voyages sailings are 18+, creating an elevated, stress-free atmosphere ideal for couples, solo travelers, and groups of friends. Whether you’re relaxing at a cabana, sipping cocktails at sunset, or dancing the night away at a themed party, the experience is curated for grown-up fun—without the chaos of crowded family cruises.
🧳 What’s Included? A Lot.
Forget the upsell fatigue. Virgin Voyages offers more in their base fare than most traditional cruise lines:
- All meals at over 20+ eateries (no buffets!)
- Tips/gratuities
- Wi-Fi
- Group fitness classes (like yoga, HIIT, spin)
- Basic drinks (still and sparkling water, soda, tea, drip coffee)
That means no surprise charges at the end of your cruise, which is honestly refreshing.
🍴 Food Worth Talking About
Dining on Virgin Voyages is in a league of its own. No buffets. No main dining rooms. Instead, you’ll find elevated restaurants ranging from Korean BBQ and Mediterranean mezze to plant-based options and late-night tacos. Each venue is included and doesn't require formalwear or rigid seating times. Just show up, eat well, and enjoy.
🛳️ Chic Ships and Next-Level Entertainment
Virgin’s ships feel more like boutique hotels than cruise ships. Think: mood lighting, modern art, hammocks on every balcony, and Instagram-worthy décor throughout. The entertainment is bold and unconventional, with immersive shows, live DJs, drag brunches, and themed parties like Scarlet Night—an all-red dress celebration under the stars.
🌍 Where Do They Sail?
In 2025, Virgin Voyages will continue sailing popular itineraries in:
- The Caribbean (from Miami and Puerto Rico)
- The Mediterranean (from Barcelona and Athens)
- Transatlantic and repositioning cruises (great for longer getaways!)
Most itineraries include overnight stays or longer port times, so you get more time to explore.

When I was in elementary school, I was fortunate to go to the Philippines with my grandparents three times. I will never ever forget the experiences and memories I have from those trips. I remember visiting my Papa's village and handing out candy to my relatives. They were overwhelmed with gratitude and so excited to meet us because we were from Hawaii.
Before each of those trips we would go to the travel agency and meet with the travel agent lady who took care of the flight arrangements for us. We gave her all our details and picked our seats and picked up our plane tickets. I remember the second time I went she upgraded us to first class and it was really special for me.
Today with access to the world wide web, we can search the internet for anything. We can google and research and find and book flights and hotels on our own. There are a number of search engines now such as Expedia and Travelocity that advertise deals on travel. I didn’t know until recently that Expedia owns a bunch of the other companies so their prices are very similar.
When it comes to travel the value you get for using a travel agent is incredible. With a travel agent you get your own assistant to research and create your ideal itinerary. You get a custom tailored trip to you and what you want. Travel agents have access to databases and websites that the general public do not have access to.
The best part is it doesn’t cost you any extra at all. Travel agents receive compensation from the vendors when they book. Researching all the details for vacations can be exhausting and time consuming. Using a travel agent saves you a bunch of unnecessary stress and lets you relax and enjoy your vacation and focus on what's more important: making memories with loved ones.
I highly encourage you to use a travel agent to make your life a little less stressful. If you have a trip in mind and would love to get you booked and ready to go. My travel website is https://www.evotravelagent.com/ahealthymermaid and if there’s another agent you resonate with, no worries at all.
