🏝️ The Backdrop: City Lights, Coral Reefs, & Pristine Sands
We’ve put together an incredible 5-night Caribbean itinerary onboard Virgin Voyages’ award-winning, adults-only ship, the Scarlet Lady:
- Miami, Florida: Kick off your trip sailing out of a stunning, state-of-the-art terminal. (Arrive the night before departure to take in the electric nightlife of South Beach!)
- Cozumel, Mexico: Plunge into the breathtaking turquoise waters of the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef or uncover the mystical charm of ancient Mayan ruins.
- Bimini, Bahamas: Spend an unforgettable day at a private beach club lounging on pristine white sands, swimming in massive lagoon pools, and dancing to live DJs at sunset.
✨ Over $200 in Added Luxury Value!
Virgin Voyages already includes incredible standard luxuries—free Wi-Fi, unlimited group fitness classes, room service, and essential drinks (pressed juices, sodas, drip coffee, and tea). Plus, they’ve completely replaced traditional buffets with elevated, made-to-order dining and festival-style entertainment like the legendary Scarlet Night pool party!
Exclusive Group Perks Included:
- An intimate, private Meet & Greet to kick off the sailing and connect with fellow travelers.
- A $50 Bar Tab to spend on premium cocktails or wine.
- A $50 post-cruise rebate directly from our agency as a sincere thank-you.
