Scarlet Lady Dry Dock Adding Rockstar Suites
Scarlet Lady’s dry dock will add over 20 Rockstar cabins, expanding the Rockstar options for sailors and replacing central Sea Terrace cabins.
As spotted by Virgin Voyages Redditors and verified by VV Insider, Scarlet Lady should add over 20 new Seriously Suite Rockstar cabins during its upcoming dry dock. Taking place from November 14 to November 28, 2024, this renovation will see several cabins on Deck 11 transformed with new suites replacing some of the Central Sea Terrace cabins. These changes will expand the number of Rockstar suites, offering more sailors the chance to experience these luxury accommodations.
As we had previously reported, Deck 13 had been removed from sale for all sailings post-dry dock, leading to speculation about possible changes. However, the deck is now back on sale. Virgin Voyages has chosen to utilize Deck 11 for additional Rockstar suite capacity instead, leaving Deck 13 unchanged for now.
Cabin Conversions on Deck 11
VV Insider has verified that the following Central Sea Terrace cabins on Deck 11 will be converted into Seriously Suites:
- Cabins 11218A to 11286A
- Cabins 11218Z to 11278Z
Each Seriously Suite will take up the space of approximately two Sea Terrace cabins creating 23 total cabins (at this time 11286Z does not appear to be offered but is likely the 24th suite). These new suites are already available for booking on all sailings after November 28th, provided there is remaining availability. Once confirmed we will update our Cabin Lookup Tool to reflect the changes.
Virgin Voyages has not provided official confirmation of this change at this time. Discussion of these changes came from Virgin Voyages’ Sip and Ships talk during a recent Celebration Voyage. Sailors onboard reported that executives mentioned that several Sea Terraces would be converted into suites during the dry dock.
Seriously Suite Features
The Seriously Suite is one of the entry-level Rockstar suites and includes a number of perks designed to elevate the experience for sailors. Each suite features a king-size bed, a large marble-tiled bathroom, and additional balcony space. Sailors staying in these suites will also enjoy the standard Rockstar perks, such as access to Richard’s Rooftop and priority boarding.
Added Upgrade Capacity
This expansion in Rockstar suite availability will give more sailors the opportunity to enjoy these exclusive accommodation. It also increases the likelihood of Rockstar suite upgrades, which can be accessed through Virgin Voyages’ upgrade system.

Other Dry Dock Rumors & Changes
In addition to these new suites, there are rumors of other changes happening during the dry dock, such as:
- A potential replacement of Razzle Dazzle with a new Asian restaurant
- Enhancements to the Athletic Club to make it more versatile
- Additional hangout spaces being added to the Social Club
- Modifications to the ship to better support cold-weather cruises, such as those to Iceland
- Various cosmetic upgrades throughout the ship
Future Dry Docks and Ships
Although Brilliant Lady, launching in 2025, will not have additional cabins due to her original design, future Virgin Voyages ships will likely follow similar upgrade paths. Valiant Lady is scheduled for a dry dock in 2026, and Resilient Lady will potentially follow in 2028.
