In seven magical nights you’ll enjoy jaw-dropping entertainment, our signature parties in sensational venues, fabulously original dining, gorgeous design, spectacular service and so much more on world’s top-rated ship. It’s the perfect blend of exploration, adventure, and fun with 2800 guys from around the world.

Our Favorite Way to Play

Head south with great friends to start off in gay-friendly San Juan! In seven sun-drenched days and sizzling nights, you’ll be thrilled by Atlantis’ all-star performers, dance to the music of the world’s top DJs, share great meals with friends in 7 awesome restaurants, and still have time to relax. All with the ultra-modern and friendly design and amazing inclusions that have made Virgin Voyages the world’s number one cruise line three years in a row!

Imagine a pool deck designed for both relaxing and dancing. A gym you never want to leave. Chilling out in a net 13 stories above the ocean. Wellness that surrounds you. Innovative dining, unlike anything at sea. Brunch in two places. Everyday. Drag queen hosts and pop-up moments of pure joy. Shows where you’re a part of the action and magic in unexpected places. And that’s just the beginning.

Sail deep into the heart of the Caribbean, where unspoiled beaches become the gateway to unexpected adventures. Start with a relaxing day at sea before arriving on the famous powder-white sands of Aruba, where British ambience meets Caribbean charm. You’ll love Aruba’s picture-perfect powder-white beaches, perfect weather, dazzling shopping, and laid-back vibe. The brightly painted Dutch colonial town of Willemstad, Curacao, always welcomes Atlantis to an island filled with dazzling coves, bright desert-like landscapes, and some of the world’s best scuba diving.

Drop anchor in Antigua, where 365 sugar-white beaches meet impossibly clear seas and a skyline dotted with historic forts. Wander the colorful streets of St. John’s, sail past Nelson’s Dockyard, or slip away to a secluded cove for a sun-soaked day that feels effortlessly indulgent.

Visiting our ever-popular port of St. Maarten, Dutch sophistication meets French flair and turquoise bays stretch in every direction. Explore world-famous beaches, browse chic boutiques in Phillipsburg, or savor a seaside lunch in Grand Case before we head back to San Juan.

Nobody likes paying for things they always use, like Wifi, basic beverages, and a terrific place for dinner. So, we don’t charge extra. Ever. Even fitness classes are included! Log on, drink up, spin a little, and enjoy!

Every fabulously original restaurant is included with more choices than any other ship at sea. All you have to do is decide whether to indulge in fresh Italian at Extra Virgin, Korean BBQ at Gumbae, an inventive tasting menu at the Test Kitchen, brunch or steak at the Wake, all-day treats at Razzle Dazzle, and so much more. And there’s no buffet in sight. Or a massive banquet-like main hall. But who needs one with all these amazing spots to enjoy?

By basic beverages, we mean sodas, water, coffees, juices, and most non-alcoholic offerings. The hard stuff, of course, is extra.

You’re never far from entertainment on Valiant Lady, and sometimes you’re literally part of it! From pop-up surprises to sensual dance productions, cutting-edge DJs to thrilling cabaret performers, innovative theater to Atlantis’ incredible gay circus show. All with a little magic thrown in.

The amazing Red Room is perfect for Atlantis’ signature blend of talented singers, comics, drag queens, and so much more. Don’t miss the brilliantly clever Persephone, where pop musical styles blend with erotic circus and yes classic Greek storytelling. You’ll have to see it to understand fully!

For sheer thrills into the night, there’s no venue at sea like The Manor – part cabaret space, part nightclub, and always alive with a unique energy. The outrageously wild Another Rose will take your breath away with a mind-bending interactive show filled with spectacle, bubbling with humor, and fueled by non-stop drinks. Our Atlantis cabaret stars fill out the lineup with a parade of gay comics, outrageous drag performers, and so much more.

There’s never been a pool deck so perfectly designed for the Atlantis style of free-spirited dancing under the sun and stars. From our signature-themed t-dances to outrageous nighttime parties, we’ll present the world’s finest DJs with a production unlike anything you’ve ever seen, filled with dazzling lighting, endless lasers, eye-popping video effects, and plenty of special moments. After all, this ship was built for a party like ours! All we can say is wait until you’re in the middle of it all.

Indoors, we’ll host fabulous parties in both The Manor’s sizzling nightclub and transform the Red Room into an epic paradise, bathing you with lights and lasers. There’s never been anything like it in our 36-year history!

Let’s Make Waves. The Virgin Voyages Story.

Virgin Voyages was conceived with a simple idea in mind – redefine what a luxury cruise ship can be to create a radically fun new way to sail. Before a single ship was built, a deeply engaging sailor experience was crafted with an eye towards the future, focused on fun & freedom, discarding legacy cruise elements deeply rooted in the past. Breakthrough design creates a visually stunning and fabulously functional playground, and innovative approaches to entertainment, dining, and wellness will delight you in ways you never imagined.

We think Virgin has created the perfect ship for the Atlantis way to sail, allowing us to offer a bold and unique experience with a sense of freedom and playfulness that you simply won’t see anywhere else.

After all, no other cruise line has full-time drag queens onboard.

You’ll never mistake Valiant Lady for any other ship except maybe one of her sisters. From her dramatic red and grey exterior to dazzling cool interiors, she’s the combination of the talents of world-class designers. Built to create an immersive, interactive, and playful experience everywhere.

Step onto the sleek pool deck, and you’ll feel like she’s your own private yacht filled with great friends and whimsical furnishings. Find your perfect setting along one of the two inviting pools or one of the massive surrounding decks. As the day evolves, relaxing vibes give way to festive poolside playfulness, ultimately transforming into the perfect space for Atlantis’ friendly T-dances and outrageously fun night-time parties. A unique pool cover creates a spectacular and seamless dance floor and party space unlike any other at sea.

Sample your favorite sound at Virgin Vinyl or create a new one in the private karaoke rooms. Pop a cork at the gorgeous Champagne bar after a moment of glory in the boxing ring. Relax with friends on the lux open decks of the Dockhouse. Soak up a sunset high above the ocean in the Athletic Club. Stay up way too late in the Manor, try your luck in the casino, and top it all off by raiding the galley late at night.

There’s a setting for everything and an abundance of new experiences waiting for you to explore. And all of it is beautifully made for Atlantis and the way we play.

Forget everything you know about dining at sea and indulge in a world where 18 different eateries cater to every taste and style. And forget extra charges for “specialty” dining since all food is included at every restaurant.

There’s no big dining hall where you have to queue up for a meal. Virgin’s innovative booking system lets you plan dinner where you want, when you want, with friends old and new. Atlantis will enhance our tradition of shared dining with options to meet new friends at every meal, or to dine on your own. It’s your choice and easier than ever. All with no dress code, of course.

If you’re in the mood for authentic Italian, Extra Virgin will hit the spot with a lively setting and mix of classic and contemporary options. Or share something different at Gunbae, the first real Korean BBQ at sea!

Let the masterful chefs at Test Kitchen wow you with a modern tasting menu in a sleek food-lab setting. Indulge in modern Mexican at Pink Agave, where festive drinks match outrageously delicious food.

Relax with a mezze platter and cocktail on the open decks of The Dock or indulge in a perfect steak in the sleek and sexy dining room of The Wake below.

For all-day fare with abundant vegetarian options, the bold Razzle Dazzle satisfies in new and delicious ways. You’ll be faced with even more choices at The Galley, Virgin’s take on the food hall featuring everything from tacos to poke to ramen and plenty more in between. On top of all that you’ll find freshly made pizza, fabulous ice cream, an authentic coffee house, and so much more throughout the ship.

In case you think we missed it, there’s no buffet. Just an abundance of fabulous choices including a few surprises. And yes, excellent options are available around the clock!

The transformational Red Room boasts movable seating and a flexible stage to create unique settings for Virgin’s wildly inventive production shows and Atlantis’ legendary performers. You’ll have to see it to believe it, and stick around later when we transform it into a spectacular late-night venue.

Named after Richard Branson’s first recording studio, The Manor hosts the interactive Another Rose, and transforms into an intimate performance space for Atlantis drag queens, cabaret stars, and specialty acts. Featuring three bars, two stories, and plenty of space to dance!

Sweat, relax, or just be still and breathe — it’s up to you. Virgin’s wellness and personal style spaces provide a proper dose of Vitamin Sea to leave you totally restored and ready for anything and everything. A state-of-the-art Technogym lineup stands ready for your moves in Build and Balance, while the Training Camp offers unlimited (and always included) group fitness classes unlike anything else at sea.

Wake up to sunrise yoga high above the ocean in The Perch or run with a view on the outdoor track.

The sleek and inviting Redemption Spa has everything you need to perfect your day. Revitalize with an innovative treatment or take in all the thermal suite has to offer. And for the ideal touch-up, Stubble & Groom is a man’s haven that will get you in ship-shape, British style.

Superyacht inspired stateroom design offers much more than a place to sleep. Virgin’s clever room technology and styling provide the ultimate hideaway at sea. Transform your room at the touch of a button. Mood-matching lights, a configurable and comfortable Seabed and in-cabin tech come together to make your life easier. Lounge by day, with plenty of room for friends, yet easy to convert to a bed for those times when you really do want to sleep!

If you’re looking for the suite life, Virgin’s Rockstar quarters will bring you the lifestyle you deserve. Accents of brass, stunning marble bathrooms, spacious stargazing terraces, champagne tables and exclusive treatment are yours in these VIP suites. Add a host of amenities including unlimited bar tab (for mega-Rockstar suites) for the ultimate in comfort and style!

Booking a suite unlocks access to Richard’s Rooftop; the exclusive deck where elegance meets exuberance. A lavish, elaborate and members-only outdoor space for stargazing parties and pre-dinner cocktail hours for you and the other rockstars.

There are currently no extensions for this cruise.

Set sail for fun this March with 2800 new friends as we sail from San Juan for our biggest adventure of the season!

San Juan combines the culture of a historic city with the lifestyle of a modern metropolis. Visit Old San Juan’s
beautifully restored historic sites, go shopping, or stop to enjoy authentic sangria and tapas. One of the gayest
destinations in the Caribbean, San Juan features two gay beaches, numerous popular gay restaurants, and bars for
brunch or day drinking, and more. Beyond San Juan, visitors can venture off to the mountains, caves, coral reefs, pristine beaches, and even the massive rain forest, El Yunque, for fantastic explorations.

Sailing on Valiant Lady with Atlantis is unlike any cruise experience we’ve ever created. Explore her striking design
and unique places to play. Let us entertain you in unexpected ways everywhere you turn. And of course,
join friends old and new on the dance floor at our spectacular T-dance!

Here Dutch traditions mix with island charm. Cruise to Aruba and go from relaxing in a tropical paradise to trekking rugged desert in no time. The southern coast is one giant photo op- a bustling port town surrounded by powdery white beaches and crystal-clear aquamarine waters. To the north, waves crash onto a rocky coast, scattered with cliffs, cacti and divi-divi trees. Best of all, you don’t have to choose which spots to hit- just which
to hit first.

Curacao is a treasure trove of cultural attractions, rich history, and natural scenery – from desert landscapes and
rugged cliffs to 38 spectacular, and mostly secluded, beaches. Sint Anna Bay separates the two sides of the
capital of Willemstad. Punda, the original settlement, is a tidy grid filled with shops and unique markets,
restaurants and open-air cafes. Not to mention the famous tropicalized Dutch architecture in vibrant hues.

Relax. Connect. Play. That’s a day at sea with Atlantis. Start off whenever you feel like it – after all you’re on vacation.
Join a few friends for brunch or find your place in the sun. Drop into the Spa for a pampering treatment or refreshing workout. Take in a few pool games or a little afternoon silliness like Bingo.

Experience the enchantment of St. John’s, Antigua, where history, beaches, and culture converge for an unforgettable journey. Soak up the sun on Antigua’s gorgeous beaches, renowned for their powdery white
sands and turquoise waters or delve into the city’s colonial past as you wander through historic sites like the
cathedral and Nelson’s Dockyard. Complete your visit by immersing yourself in St. John’s vibrant culture,
indulging in lively markets, colorful festivals, and delicious cuisine that capture the essence of Caribbean hospitality.

Dutch and French cultures meet in captivating St. Maarten for an extraordinary day of sightseeing and adventures. We’ll dock in Philipsburg, where duty-free shopping and
beachfront dining await. Venture to the French town of Marigot to soak in its European flair and panoramic views
from Fort Louis. Thrill-seekers can enjoy water sports at Maho Beach, famous for its close airplane landings, or relax on the calm shores of Orient Beach. Whether you’re exploring colorful markets or relaxing on its many turquoise beaches, St. Maarten offers an unforgettable blend of cultural and natural attractions.

San Juan is the perfect place to experience Puerto Rican culture. Get to know its roots by exploring the vibrant
neighborhood of El Viejo San Juan (Old San Juan), which consists mostly of Spanish colonial buildings. Flesh out
your self-guided history lesson with a visit to El Castillo San Felipe del Morro, a 16th century citadel that’s a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Then head farther afield to take a cooling dip at Luquillo or Carolina Beach or a tasty tour of the Bacardi rum plant. Disembarkation begins at 8:00 am and Atlantis does not recommend flights before 11:00 am. We can’t wait to see you onboard again in the future!
