Tell me about the cabins on a 2025 Virgin Voyages ship – are they really that special?
Absolutely! Virgin Voyages’ cabins are thoughtfully designed for comfort and style, earning accolades like ‘Best Cabin Design.’ In 2025, you’ll find features like the innovative Seabed (transforming from a bed to a sofa), 43″ 4K flat-screen HDTVs, mood lighting, and premium, eco-friendly bath amenities in refillable dispensers from Red Flower. Most cabins (Sea Terrace and above) feature the signature red hammock on the balcony – perfect for those sea day siestas! From cozy Insider cabins to lavish RockStar Quarters with extra perks, there’s a perfect haven for every Sailor. CamJon Travel can help you select the ideal cabin category for your needs and budget – we know the ships inside out and can advise on the best locations and views!
