These are the first images of the suites on board Virgin Voyages’ first cruise ship – the Scarlet Lady.
The ship, due for delivery in Miami in 2020, has 78 suites, with two levels – Mega RockStar and RockStar.
The renderings show the top suite on board – the Massive Suite – and the Gorgeous Suite, which isn’t as big but still has ‘Mega RockStar’ status.
This image is of the top suite on the Scarlet Lady – the Massive Suite – which features a runway table with steps so passengers can clamber on top more easily to dance
The Scarlet Lady has 78 suites on board, of which two are Massive suites. Virgin claims these cabins are the places ‘legends dream of’
The Massive Suite, says Virgin Voyages, ‘is the place that legends dream of, replete with its own music room, which seconds as an extra bedroom, and is stocked with guitars and an amplifier with a vinyl turntable in the adjacent living room’.
There’s also a hot tub, vanity area, two wardrobes and a marble-clad bathroom with a peek-a-boo shower area that overlooks the bedroom and has views out to the water.
And there’s more.
The suite, of which there are only two on board, also has ‘a lookout point with stargazing loungers and two full length hammocks’ – and a runway outdoor dining table for six with its own staircase, ‘to help sailors make their way on top for dancing’.

One hull of a set-up: The bathroom in the Massive Suite is, naturally, marble-clad
The Gorgeous Suite, meanwhile, of which there are nine on board, features distinct lounge and bedroom areas plus a luxurious marble bathroom with peek-a-boo shower window. It also has an ‘expansive’ terrace with a peek-a-view outdoor shower.
Virgin Voyages says it is ‘bringing rebellious luxe to life at sea’ with its RockStar Suites, which have been designed by Tom Dixon’s Design Research Studio.
“Virgin has always avoided stuffy formalities and brought a lot of excitement and a bit of rebelliousness to our customer experiences,” said Sir Richard Branson, Founder of the Virgin Group. “With these glamorous suites, Virgin Voyages is bringing rock and roll to the high seas and spoiling our sailors like the rock stars they are.”
