Brilliant Lady has received a number of soft updates, refining how certain spaces are used and bringing the ship more in line with layouts already seen on Valiant Lady and Resilient Lady.

High Limits Casino Room Replaces The Den

Near the main casino, the mixed use space previously known as The Den has now been replaced by a high limits style casino room. This mirrors the setup already introduced on Valiant Lady and later added to Resilient Lady.

The updated The Den – Casino was introduced during her Panama Canal crossing and now focuses on higher limit table games and premium slot machines in a more dedicated space.

With this change, The Den no longer exists on Brilliant Lady. Sailors have also reported the changes have been made to Scarlet Lady too, meaning the original version of The Den is now defunct.

Juice Sea Reinvented On Deck 7

The Deck 7 juice bar has also been reworked into Juice Sea, with a clearer focus and an expanded menu that now includes smoothies and protein based options. Sailors with Splash of Romance can also redeem their juice credits here.

Located just off The Dock House, the venue now offers a mix of juices and smoothies, including:

  • Ocean Glow: blueberries, mint, orange, oat milk, spirulina, chia seeds
  • Açaí Me: açaí, blueberry, strawberry, dates
  • In The Tropics: pitaya, pineapple, mango, banana, coconut water
  • Fill Me Up: banana, peanut butter, cacao nibs, almond milk, hemp

Juice Sea typically operates during the morning and closes by midday, with the same drinks available via The Dock House outside of these hours.

Overview

Brilliant Lady has introduced a series of soft updates, with The Den replaced by a high limits casino room and the Deck 7 juice bar reinvented as Juice Sea. These changes were added during her Panama Canal crossing and reflect Virgin Voyages’ approach of evolving onboard spaces without requiring a full dry dock.
