Key West, FL
United StatesPortOne of the few Florida stops that is a genuine port call rather than a turnaround. Ships berth either at Pier B on the old Navy mole or at the Mallory Square pier, and both put you within a few blocks of Duval Street. The island is small enough to cover on foot and crowded enough by noon that the early hours ashore are the good ones.
- The Hemingway Home on Whitehead Street and its six-toed cats
- Fort Zachary Taylor Historic State Park, the best swimming beach in town
- The Southernmost Point buoy, if only to get the queue over with
- Mallory Square's sunset celebration - only worth planning for if your ship stays late
- Getting ashore
- Ships dock at Pier B (the former Navy mole) or the Mallory Square pier depending on size; both are a walk of a few blocks into Old Town, with no tender involved.
- Best months
- Dec-Apr (Sep-Oct is hurricane peak and midsummer is airless)

Beach Club at Bimini
BahamasPortVirgin Voyages' beach club sits on North Bimini, 50 miles east of Miami, alongside the Resorts World development that shares the pier. Ships tie up at Bimini's cruise berth and the club is a short walk or shuttle away - a big pool, DJ decks and a bar-heavy layout aimed at adults, since Virgin sails 18-and-over only. Beach and pool access come with the sailing; drinks, daybeds and cabanas are charged.
- The beach club pool and its DJ sessions
- Snorkelling the wreck of the Sapona off South Bimini
- The Healing Hole, a mineral spring in the mangroves
- Resorts World's marina, casino and restaurants
- Getting ashore
- Ships dock at the Resorts World Bimini pier; the beach club is a few minutes away on foot or by shuttle.
- Best months
- Nov-May for calm crossings and mild weather; Aug-Oct is hurricane season

About the Ship
What Travelers Say About Scarlet Lady
Reviews of the ship itself — the same for every Scarlet Lady sailing. Distilled from 167 traveler threads, passenger reviews and travel blogs.
Scarlet Lady is Virgin Voyages' debut ship and the flagship of its adults-only (18+), no-kids concept, carrying up to about 2,762 'Sailors' at roughly 110,000 GT. It deliberately throws out cruise conventions: no buffet (replaced by The Galley food hall), no formal nights, and no children aboard. The result is a sophisticated, boutique-hotel feel that bundles Wi-Fi, gratuities, all restaurants, soda, and fitness classes into the fare.
What People Love
- Specialty restaurants (The Wake, Gunbae, Razzle Dazzle, Extra Virgin, Pink Agave) are included in the fare with no cover charge — rated among the best food at sea
- Truly inclusive pricing bundles Wi-Fi, gratuities, all restaurants, group fitness, and basic soda — minimal nickel-and-diming
- Adults-only (18+), boutique-hotel atmosphere with no kids and a sophisticated-but-playful vibe
Common Complaints
- Only two small pools that fill up fast — the most common complaint, with daybeds claimed early
- Buggy, low-rated app and a clunky reservation model make booking dining a hassle
- Long, disorganized embarkation with multi-hour waits reported
