Virgin Voyages’ Splash of Romance Package: Is It Worth It for You?

Virgin Voyages' Splash of Romance package sounds dreamy — champagne, spa time, priority boarding — but is it worth the extra money for you? In this quick guide, I’ll break down what’s included, who it’s perfect for, and a simple way to decide if it fits your cruise vibe.

💘 What's Included in the Splash of Romance Package?

Here’s what you get:

• Early embarkation — get on the ship before the crowds (the only way to do this if you're not a Rockstar or Deep Blue Extra Sailor)
• Daily fresh-pressed juice — available for pickup each morning during select hours
• Thermal spa pass for two — 3 hours of bliss at the Redemption Spa, complete with a mud pot for the mud room
• Shake for Champagne — open the app, shake your phone, and they'll bring you a bottle of bubbly wherever you are on the ship
• Treats delivered to your cabin — typically 2–3 times during your voyage, featuring chocolate-dipped strawberries, macarons, or other surprises
• Exclusive Sailaway Soirée — usually held on the second or third night, includes complimentary champagne and mingling with other Sailors

🧠 Quick Quiz: Is It Right for You?

Ask yourself these questions:

• Do you want to embark early and beat the crowds?
• Do you drink fresh juice in the morning — or want to try it?
• Do you enjoy champagne (especially when it appears magically via app)?
• Were you planning to book a spa pass or spend time relaxing at the thermal suite?
• Do you like getting little surprise treats delivered to your room?
• Are you excited about attending an exclusive event to mingle with other cruisers?

If you answered “yes” to three or more, the package is probably a great fit.

✅ This Package Might Be Perfect for You If:

• You’re celebrating a birthday, honeymoon, or anniversary
• You want that VIP feeling without upgrading to Rockstar
• You’d spend money on spa time or juice anyway
• You love champagne and surprises

🤔 You Might Skip It If:

• You’re not into spa, juice, or bubbly
• You already qualify for early embarkation (Rockstar or Deep Blue Extras)
• You’re on a tighter cruise budget
• You prefer to DIY your extras à la carte

💡 My Tip:

The Splash of Romance package often sells out, so if it sounds like something you’d enjoy, book it early. It’s one of the few ways to guarantee early boarding if you’re not in a Rockstar suite or don’t have loyalty status.

🧾 Bottom Line: Is It Worth It?

If you’ll use at least 2–3 of the perks — like early embarkation, spa time, and champagne — the value is absolutely there. It’s not just about what you get, but the elevated experience it adds to your sailing.

And hey, if you’ve ever wanted to shake your phone and summon champagne like a cruise ship sorceress… this one’s for you. 🥂
