Until recently, if you wanted to have a child-free vacation, your options were limited. You could try an all-inclusive resort that was adults only or has an adults only section. However, this limits the amount of places you can go. You could avoid kids by traveling during times of year where school is in session, but there is no guarantee that children will not be there. But, thanks to Virgin Voyages, we can now have an adult vacation with all of the excitement of seeing a variety of great destinations.

Here are 5 reasons why a Virgin Voyages cruise is a great option for a vacation without kids

Reason One: No one under 18 can sail

Virgin has a strict policy that only adults are allowed on their cruise ships. That means that no matter what time of year you sail, you’ll be sure that you get a kid-free vacation. This is especially appealing to my clients that are teachers and always must vacation during school breaks.

Reason Two: No other age limitations

Virgin Voyages is not the first adult only cruise line. However, previous lines limited sailing to seniors 55+. If you’re Gen X, Millenial, or Gen Z, you were generally out of luck. Want a youthful experience, without actual children? Virgin Voyages presents an excellent option!

Reason Three: More ship space for adults

Traditional cruise lines often have adult-only spaces allotted. But, they also have large spaces specifically for children. Since Virgin Voyages doesn’t have to cater to families, the entire ship is an adult-only space. Instead of a kids club, go-cart track, or water slides, you will find a sprawling adult fitness complex with top-of-the-line cardio and weight equipment. A ton of fitness classes including sunrise yoga, spinning, HIIT bootcamp, and 80s themed cardio workouts are included in your cruise fare at no extra charge.

Reason Four: Menus for Adults

No menu space is wasted on kid-friendly food. Instead, Virgin Voyages have ships that are foodie paradises! The restaurants span every stye of international cuisine from Korean barbecue at Gunbae to fresh pasta at Extra Virgin. You won’t find a chicken-finger on the menu, but you will find options for every preference. If you are vegetarian, vegan, or gluten-free, that will be no problem at all! Plus, every restaurant on board is included in your cruise fare.

Reason Five: Amazing excursions

Virgin Voyages has curated amazing excursions in every port. You’ll find everything from snorkeling around a shipwreck in the Bahamas to a guided tour of the underground city in Cagliari, Italy. When you go on an excursion, you won’t be crammed in a tour bus with tired children, but will be able to enjoy your day with other adults.
