Virgin Voyages’ Scarlet Lady, the first ship launched by the company in 2021, is set for a two-week dry dock beginning November 14, 2024. The dry dock will take place in Rome, before the ship returns to Miami on November 28, 2024 via a Transatlantic voyage. Alongside potential cabin changes on deck 13, a new restaurant is rumored to replace the current Razzle Dazzle.
Rumors from Behind the Scenes Tours
Recent leaks on one of the Virgin Fan Facebook groups, from sailors who participated in the Behind the Scenes tours, suggest significant changes. One sailor shared:
“During the Behind the Scenes tour a couple of days ago, we were shown around the kitchens by one of the executive chefs. He said that at the end of this season in the Mediterranean, Scarlet Lady would be replacing Razzle Dazzle with a new Asian restaurant. Going forward, Razzle Dazzle would be replaced on all the Virgin Voyages ships, with each ship having a different restaurant.”
Another sailor seemed to confirm these changes, noting:
“They were taking measurements for it after we sailed out of Civitavecchia last week. The ships are built in Italy, as far as I know, and the constructor was onboard with a team and with drawings of a ‘new Razzle Dazzle.’ So this information is correct. One of the waiters confirmed it to us as well.”

Potential for an Asian Restaurant
The potential for a new Asian inspired restaurant on Scarlet Lady aligns with Virgin Voyages’ recent ventures into Asian cuisine. The line hosted an Asian Night Market at Sea event in July, featuring a variety of dishes such as dumplings, bao buns, and pork skewers. This event was part of the Eat & Drink festival, showcasing the popularity and appeal of Asian flavors among sailors.
The Asian Night Market at Sea
Virgin Voyages introduced the Asian Night Market at Sea, a vibrant celebration of Asian culture and cuisine. Hosted in The Galley, this event allowed sailors to embark on a culinary journey through Asia, sampling authentic dishes and refreshing beverages that encapsulated the continent’s rich cultural tapestry.

With each ship potentially offering a unique dining experience, the variety and quality of the menus are set to enhance the overall experience especially for repeat Sailing Club sailors.
