December cruise deals that’ll make you rethink your holiday plans
Let’s get real — “Home for the Holidays” is often just code for winter gridlock, endless dishes, and smiling through a loop of emotional grenades: “You’re so brave, I could never do that.” “But if you’re happy, that’s all that matters.”
This year, start a new tradition — (Not) Home for the Holidays — on a 4 to 11-night Caribbean voyage from Miami and San Juan between November to New Year’s.
Instead of driving through blizzard-like conditions, spend your days island hopping in our new and Sailor-loved destinations: Jamaica, Grand Cayman, Aruba, Turks & Caicos, The Beach Club at Bimini. Or wake up to the sound of ocean waves outside your balcony — from your hammock!
Book early, unwrap (extra) holiday cruise deals
Plan ahead and save with Virgin Voyages’ exclusive holiday rates from $129 per Sailor per night. Not only do you have four ships to choose from (including our brand-new Brilliant Lady), you’ll secure the top cabin locations — likely to be unavailable closer in — or one of our limited RockStar Quarters (which sell out quickly).
And because saving more is always satisfying, stack it with our limited time summer offers: 70% off your second Sailor, a free balcony upgrade, and up to $300 in onboard credit to treat yourself (or those back at home) during your sailing.
Eat, drink, be merry — holiday experiences to look forward to
Awkward political debates over Uncle Frank’s burnt roast? Hard pass. The holidays are meant to be joyful — and on our ships, joy is just the beginning. From special holiday dining to gingerbread culinary classes to onboard gifts and surprises, here’s a taste of a Virgin Voyages holiday cruise:
- Themed Menus: Chef-designed holiday feasts, treats, and festive cocktails that are as fancy as they are flavorful.
- Decked-Out Décor: We don’t just deck the halls — we go full “decked-out hulls.” Think ship-wide sparkle, jaw-dropping Insta-worthy décor, and unforgettable photo ops.
- Festive Entertainment: A curated holiday spectacular ranging from special events to pop-up performances to fantastically ugly sweater PJ parties, plus one over-the-top Scarlet Night.
Festive cruises for every kind of escape artist
An adults-only holiday cruise is the kind of present everyone can get onboard with. Here’s who will love a 2025 festive cruise aboard Virgin Voyages:
- Just You – Ultimate “me time” filled with ocean views and relaxing spa days.
- Sea for Two – In-law dodgers, sun-chasing Snow Birds, or those plotting a surprise engagement. Shooting stars not guaranteed, but very likely.
- The Whole Crew – A family getaway that even grown kids can vibe with (if you’re feeling generous).
Key takeaway? New experiences > stuff headed towards the junk drawer. Santa would agree.
