Are you looking to venture on a cruise that puts your health and wellness first? Look no further than Virgin Voyages!
This forward-thinking cruise line prides itself on offering its Sailors the ultimate wellness experience onboard. So whether you’re a gym bunny, spa veteran or sports fanatic, you can slow down, relax, and detox your mind, body, and soul!
So sit back and relax, while we let you in on all there is to know about wellness onboard a Virgin Voyages cruise.
Redemption Spa
Located on Deck 5, the Redemption Spa transports Sailors to a world of calm and relaxation. Inspired by an underwater cave, its sleek design offers a fully immersive experience the minute you walk through the door.
In the invigorating Thermal Suite, forget about all of your worries as you explore the mud room, salt room, sauna, steam room, plunge pools, and heated marble benches. Or, take a refreshing dip in the hydrotherapy pool before zoning out on the first quartz beds at sea.
A broad variety of indulgent spa treatments are also available in the Redemption Spa, including hot stone massages and adventurous seaweed wraps.
For those looking to extend their redemption experience further, exclusive spa parties are also held in the thermal suite during the evening- so you can continue to let your hair down as the sun goes down too.
Beauty Treatments
Not only focused on spa experiences, Virgin Voyages’ wellness experience also includes a multitude of sparkling beauty treatments, to keep Sailors looking and feeling their very best while onboard.
In The Tune Up, choose from a range of luxurious manicures and pedicures; everything from organic soaks to intricate nail art. Additionally, more sought-after Medi-spa services are also provided here, including Botox, fillers and IV therapy.
And for a brand new ‘do onboard, Sailors can fulfil their wildest hair and beauty desires at Dry Dock. From highlights and blow drys to a brow bar, lash services and full makeovers- you’ll leave feeling like a million dollars!
Work Up a Sweat
Get your heart rate pumping and endorphins flowing at Virgin Voyages’ B-Complex Gym. Featuring plenty of state-of-the-art equipment, there’s no excuse for compromising your fitness routine while onboard!
Whatever your favourite way to sweat it out, take advantage of the cruise line’s Build, Bike and Balance rooms containing targeted equipment to get the most out of your chosen workout: lift weights in the Build Room; cycle to pumping beats in the Bike Room; and re-discover your inner zen in the Balance Rooms, all with sweeping ocean views.
For more guidance and extra motivation with your fitness journey, one-to-one personal training sessions are also available to Sailors, as well as free instructor-led group classes.
If your ideal type of workout doesn’t take place in the gym, why not visit The Runway? A runner’s dream, this signature Virgin-red running track sits at around 255 metres outside on-deck. So whether you’re sweating, strutting or strolling, take in the panoramic views while the refreshing ocean breeze cools you down.
The Athletic Club
Inspired by the buzzing vibe of a retro athletic social club, The Athletic Club is the place to be for fitness fanatics and socialites alike!
Featuring an outdoor active training camp, boxing ring, basketball court, and refuelling station at the cold-pressed juice bar, this is the perfect place to release your energy in an alternative setting and refuel your body afterwards. Sprawl out on comfortable daybeds and chill out with a healthy juice or craft cocktail- you are on holiday after all!
The perfect spot for stargazing at night, Sailors can also relax on the Catamaran net as night draws in, watching the world go by above.
Wellbeing Pool & Bar
Life is all about balance, right?
So, reward yourself after working up a sweat in the gym or restoring your mind and body in the spa by taking an invigorating dip in the Wellbeing Pool. Perfect for cooling off, relax in the refreshing water or simply lounge poolside and soak up the sun.
For a thirst-quenching beverage, Gym and Tonic Bar is conveniently located right next to the Wellbeing Pool, serving up cold-pressed juices with numerous offerings. From personalised health shakes to fresh and fruity cocktails, there truly is no right or wrong way to reward yourself after looking after your mind, body and soul!
