Royal Caribbean's Icon of the Seas - the largest cruise ship in the world! It's almost time! I board this megaship tomorrow and will be posting photos and video so make sure you are following! @Robin2Travel https://t.co/V9DstApGuQ
We've all heard about it - Royal Caribbean's newest ship, the Icon of the Seas! Millbrook World Travel agents will be on board sailings from January 20-26, so watch for more information and pictures and videos! And if there's something you want to see, send us a message!
When is the best time to book a Virgin Voyages cruise? Right now! Bookings made now through 1/31/24 include 70% off the 2nd person & up to $600 bar tab (some restrictions apply). AND I purchased a future Future Voyage credits, so contact me now - I only have a couple of these!
After all I've shared, are you thinking you want to try Virgin Voyages? Then come with me! I'm sailing October 2-6, 2024 from Miami to Key West and Bimini! Contact me for options and prices!
There are no "maps" but you can ask for a deck plan at Sailor Services (Guest Services). At the port, there are towels that you can take with you so you don't have to take from in your room. Want more tips? Contact me!

And if you're into Fitness, SO many options! Lots of equipment on the upper decks, completely separate running track (no having to yell to walkers to move aside), and yoga and other classes (complementary) every day!
Every Sea Terrace stateroom on Virgin Voyages cruises has a hammock. Best. Thing. Ever. So comfortable! Just wish there were 2! You can also buy them in the gift shop to take home.
XL Sea Terrace bathroom has a sink on one side, two doors (shower & toilet) on the other. SO easy to have 2 people in that area at one time! I would definitely go XL Sea Terrace from now on!
Besides eating, what else is there to do on a Virgin Voyages cruise? Plenty! Lots of board games, board tables, arcade (free), and scheduled activities like Sea Horse race (multi day activity), Speed Jigsaw puzzles, and Bingo with the Diva, to mention just a few.
My stateroom on the Virgin Voyages Scarlet Lady was set up as one bed when we arrived, but we requested it be split into two beds. Instead of just pulling them apart, the second bed is actually turned sideways, which gives much more space in the stateroom.
Another unique food offering - a few places around the ship (outside the Galley and The Dock), there are prepared boxed foods that you can take and eat wherever you want.
One of the places that many people say that they never made it to is the Dock. Aft on deck 7, it's a little awkward to get to, but a great area with unique food options. You can select from items on their cart, or order from the menu and they will bring the food to you.
Another restaurant that offers breakfast and dinner is The Wake. Located at the back on deck 6, you enter from deck 7 and walk down the stairs to the restaurant. Here are dinner photos.
Room service on VV is also different - there is a flat $7 charge, no matter how much you order. It is delivered in a bag like this, with all the food stacked inside. The food is ordered through the app, and includes various food items, and cans of soda.
Our first dinner was at the Test Kitchen - It is a set menu, although you can specify dietary restrictions including vegan. Great food, nice presentation!
