Stay in Shape on Scarlet Lady

Scarlet Lady - Fitness

Myth - all there is to do on a ship is eat and I'll gain weight.

There is some truth to the statement above - yes, there's plenty to eat onboard a ship. Scarlet Lady has several included restaurants that you would normally pay an extra fee for on other cruise lines. They do however have several healthy, vegetarian, and vegan choices which can be helpful in keeping the weight off during your cruise. 

In addition, Scarlet Lady has several fitness options, including the Aquatic Club (Poolside Oasis), B-Complex (with state of the art equipment), Training Camp (group fitness area), Well-Being Pool, the Athletic Club (adult playground), The Perch (outdoor wellness space), The Runway (jogging track), and Gym & Tonic (healthy juices and full bar).  There are also yoga and other organized events on the ship and on land for you to participate in.

After your workout, you can have a relaxing massage in the spa.   This ship is really geared to those that want to stay / get in shape during their cruise.  The pictures above are just some of the choices.

There's a Chair Waiting for You on Scarlet Lady

We couldn't wait until morning on our first sea day to explore more of Scarlet Lady.  The clear blue skies made for a great background for many of the images we captured.

Keeping up with their promise, Virgin Voyages Scarlet Lady isn't your typical cruise ship.  As you can see in these images, there are many unique seating arrangements all around the ship.  Whether you want to relax alone, with your significant other, or a large group, there is something for everyone.

Personally, we enjoyed one of the loungers near the pool and hot tubs mid-ship.  There was some shade and it was close to the stairs / elevators so we could easily get around the ship from there.

Check out our photo album for more images around the public decks.

We Dare You to Eat One for Breakfast

We aren't typically big breakfast eaters, but we couldn't pass up these two selections in The Galley on Virgin Voyages Scarlet Lady. 
 We dare you to have one of these on your voyage. 

Top Choice - French Toast Burger

Bring your appetite when ordering this selection for breakfast.  Perfectly prepared French Toast serves as the host to a grilled burger topped with American Cheese, bacon, and egg.  You can leave any of these off if desired.   It comes with a side of sweet potato tots, but you can add anything else from the menu as well.

Runner Up - Made to Order Omelette

Select a Veggie or Ham & Cheese Omelette or Build Your Own.   I opted to start the ham & cheese and add mushrooms as well.  I felt creative and had to decorate my hash browns and the eggs with ketchup.

Add Something Sweet

Of course, if you want something healthy, you can select some fruit from The Sweet Side or add a Bento Box - perhaps with tropical fruit selection.

ice cream
As the name would imply, Lick Me Till Ice Cream is the ice cream shop onboard Virgin Voyages. This venue serves complimentary scoops of homemade ice cream throughout the day. There are 6 flavors from which to choose. The choices do not change, so have a different one each day. On shorter voyages, you might have to eat more than one on a day. 

Pick one or more flavors in a cup or your choice of cones.

Lick Me Till Ice Cream is open daily from to 11:30 am to 10 pm.
