Resilient Lady
Find Out More About Virgin Voyages
The Resilient Lady cruise ship is an adults-only cruise ship operated by Virgin Voyages, combining contemporary design, destination-focused itineraries, distinctive dining and immersive entertainment. The ship made its maiden voyage on 14 May 2023, departing from Piraeus, Athens, Greece, on a seven-night Greek Island Glow itinerary. It was the third ship to join the Virgin Voyages fleet, following Scarlet Lady and Valiant Lady and arriving just ahead of Brilliant Lady. She feels wonderfully fresh and modern, meaning she has not yet needed a major refurbishment.
Built by Italian shipbuilder Fincantieri at its Sestri Ponente shipyard in Genoa, Resilient Lady was delivered to Virgin Voyages in December 2022. The ship measures approximately 277 metres in length, has a gross tonnage of around 110,000 GT and features 17 decks in total. It accommodates approximately 2,770 guests at standard double occupancy, supported by a crew of around 1,160. The ship has 1,330 cabins, including standard cabins and premium suites.
Resilient Lady Cruise Ship Restaurants & Bars
Leave your preconceived ideas of cruise dining at the port. On this ship, there is no main dining room and no set dining times. Instead, you have more than 20 distinct eateries to choose from, and the food at every single one is included in your fare.
Which restaurants can you visit on the Resilient Lady cruise ship? The ship features a variety of dining venues, including Pink Agave, Extra Virgin, Gunbae and The Wake, each offering a different atmosphere and style of cuisine. Virgin Voyages' dining concept focuses on restaurant-style meals rather than a traditional main dining room and buffet-led experience.
- Pink Agave: An upscale Mexican restaurant serving Mexican-inspired dishes in a vibrant setting. Its drinks offering includes tequila and mezcal, making it a distinctive choice for an evening meal.
- Extra Virgin: An Italian-inspired restaurant featuring antipasti, fresh pasta, seafood, grilled meats and gelato. It is a good option for guests who enjoy classic Italian flavours.
- Gunbae: A lively Korean barbecue restaurant where guests can enjoy a sociable dining experience centred on Korean-inspired food and tabletop cooking.
- The Wake: A steakhouse-style restaurant serving premium cuts and seafood in an elegant setting. It is worth considering for a special dinner during your voyage.
- Razzle Dazzle: A restaurant known for its creative approach to dining, including plant-forward dishes alongside other menu choices. Check the current venue name and menu for your sailing, as restaurant concepts can change.
- The Test Kitchen: An experimental dining venue focused on inventive dishes and culinary presentations for guests looking to try something different.
For casual meals, The Galley offers a food-hall-style dining experience with a choice of counters, while The Pizza Place is a convenient option for freshly prepared pizza. Grounds Club is another useful stop for coffee and café-style refreshments.
The ship's bars and lounges provide additional places to socialise. Guests can enjoy cocktails at onboard bars, relax with a drink before dinner or continue the evening with music and entertainment.
Dining arrangements, menus and any additional charges can vary by venue and sailing, so check the latest onboard information before booking a speciality experience.

Virgin Resilient Lady Accommodations & Cabin Types
What cabin types are available on the Resilient Lady cruise ship? Accommodation ranges from interior Insider cabins to Sea View rooms, Sea Terrace cabins with private outdoor space and premium RockStar suites. Each category offers a different balance of comfort, views, space and price.
- Insider cabins: Interior rooms without an outside window. These suit guests who want a comfortable base while prioritising their budget and time spent exploring the ship.
- Sea View cabins: Rooms with an ocean-facing window, allowing natural light into the cabin and offering views of the sea.
- Sea Terrace cabins: Rooms with a private terrace and a hammock on applicable configurations. Consider these if you enjoy fresh air and private outdoor space.
- RockStar Quarters: Premium accommodation with enhanced services and suite-specific benefits, offering a more elevated cruise experience.
- Mega RockStar Quarters: Higher-tier suites with additional space and exclusive benefits, depending on the suite booked.
Virgin Voyages also offers different cabin layouts and configurations within these categories, so it is important to check the precise room description before confirming a reservation.
For value-focused travellers, an Insider cabin may provide everything needed for a comfortable sailing. A Sea Terrace is attractive for guests who want somewhere private to enjoy the views, while RockStar accommodation may appeal to those seeking additional space and premium services.
When comparing cabins, consider the total fare, location on the ship, bed configuration, accessibility requirements and any benefits included with a particular suite. The best cabin is the one that suits your travel style rather than simply the highest-priced option.

Explore Resilient Lady
Pink Agave
Upscale Mexican
Inspired by Mexico’s red-hot culture and sexy food scene, the experience at Pink Agave goes far beyond the usual taco. Shareable, social, and spicy — it transports you to the vibrant streets of Mexico City on an immersive odyssey of local cuisine. With the largest selection of tequila and mezcal at sea, and DJ beats to amp up the energy, we won’t judge if you order one of everything… and end up dancing on tables by the end of the night.
Shore Things
There are some experiences you only dream about and there are those you didn’t know you needed — until they’re right in front of you. Get the perfect balance of both with experiences curated by our Shore Things providers.
Book early and save by scoring the lowest rates on select Shore Things (which increase on board), and the most available options. View Shore Things details and book through My Account or the Sailor App (click the “Discover” tab).
The Dock
Blurring the boundaries between indoor and outdoor lounging, The Dock is the ultimate space for unwinding. Offering an alfresco-chic lounge-side service, its menu is focused on light and refreshing drinks and enticing bites to share. Drink in the Mediterranean flair with craft cocktails made with orange blossom, rose water, or pomegranate — they pair perfectly with the sweeping ocean views, fiery sunsets, and starry nights you’ll see from one of The Dock’s daybeds.
B-Complex
A VIBE CALLED SWEAT
Divided into two goal-oriented sections decked with state-of-the-art Technogym equipment, the B-Complex has the very best at the ready so that you can give your best when working out — from a multipurpose fitness studio offering everything from Bungee classes to BARRE, a cycling studio where going for a spin doesn’t cost a thing, bookable personal training, and dramatic views to help you keep going when you feel the burn.
