Swingers on Virgin Voyages: What You Need to Know
Virgin Voyages has quickly gained a reputation for offering a fun, luxurious, and adults-only cruise experience that appeals to a wide variety of travelers. While most Sailors come for the chic atmosphere, top-tier dining, and vibrant nightlife, you might also come across a different kind of cruising culture on board—the swinger community.
Yes, swingers love to sail on Virgin Voyages, and from my experience, they’re always respectful and discreet. Virgin Voyages is designed as an inclusive and open-minded space where all adults can enjoy their vacation in a judgment-free environment, and that’s what makes it such a special experience. Here’s what to expect if you encounter this community during your voyage—and why it shouldn’t make you uncomfortable.
What’s the Deal with Pineapples?
If you see an upside-down pineapple on a cabin door or Sailors wearing pineapple-themed apparel, it’s often recognized as a subtle symbol used within the swinger community. But before you raise an eyebrow or give a side-eye, remember this: everyone on board Virgin Voyages is an adult, and just like any other guest, swingers are there to relax, have fun, and enjoy the trip. They’re not there to make anyone uncomfortable, and in my experience, they’re always respectful of others’ boundaries.
Virgin Voyages has a very laid-back and accepting vibe, where the mantra is “come as you are.” Whether you’re a solo traveler, a couple, or part of a group, the atmosphere is designed to be inclusive. The key is mutual respect—everyone is free to enjoy the cruise in their own way, and there’s no need to judge others or make anyone feel unwelcome.
A Safe and Respectful Space for All
The beauty of Virgin Voyages is that it fosters an adult-friendly environment where people can be themselves without fear of judgment. This means the swinger community and other open-minded groups feel comfortable cruising with Virgin Voyages, knowing they can enjoy their vacation like everyone else. The ship offers plenty of spaces—like the Red Room, The Manor, and the Aquatic Club—where all Sailors can mingle, dance, and have fun without any pressure or awkwardness.
It’s important to remember that you’re in a respectful, adult setting. Swingers, like every other Sailor on board, are there to have a great time—just like you! They’re not going out of their way to make others uncomfortable, and you’ll often find them to be just as respectful of personal space and privacy as anyone else on the ship.
Don’t Judge, Just Enjoy
So, what should you do if you come across the upside-down pineapple or other subtle signs? Simple—nothing! Don’t give mean looks or make judgments. Everyone is on board to have a fantastic vacation, and as long as boundaries are respected, there’s no reason for discomfort. The great thing about Virgin Voyages is that it’s a space where adults can enjoy themselves, explore new experiences, and connect with others in a friendly and respectful environment.
Virgin Voyages creates a unique experience where people from all walks of life can feel at ease. So whether you’re on board to party, relax, or try something new, just remember: the ship is big enough for everyone, and a little respect goes a long way in making the journey fun for all.
The Bottom Line
Yes, swingers love cruising Virgin Voyages, but you likely won’t even notice unless you’re familiar with the subtle pineapple symbol. And even if you do, there’s no reason to feel uncomfortable. Virgin Voyages’ atmosphere is one of inclusivity, and that’s part of what makes it such a great cruise line for adults. Everyone, regardless of lifestyle, is there for the same reason—to have an amazing time on the high seas.
So, if you see a pineapple (or two), smile and continue enjoying the luxurious, fun-filled adventure that Virgin Voyages has to offer. Just like you, everyone’s there to have the time of their life.
