Virgin Voyages Brilliant Lady

Mexico Gay Cruise 2026Join us for Mexican Riviera gay group voyage on board the brand new Virgin Voyages Adults-Only Brilliant Lady. This 7-night journey departs from Los Angeles, starting with a full day of self-care and soaking up the sun while sailing to Cabo San Lucas. The next day you’ll arrive in Mazatlan followed by Puerto Vallarta, a regular on many “World’s Best” lists due to its splendid beaches and world-renowned food and drink scene. After, you’ll have two more days to relax on the ship before returning to LA.

Each port on our Mexican Riviera Cruise holiday is filled with fun and adventure including kayaking, zip lining, swimming with dolphins, scuba diving and much more. You're never far from a beautiful beach or a good party. Explore old traditions and stunning towns when you cruise to the Mexican Riviera on Brilliant Lady.

 

Gay Mexican Riviera Cruise

 

As usual for our hosted trips, singles, couples, friends or groups are welcome. In fact, Virgin Voyages even offers solo traveler cabins (with a reasonable single supplement). This is a great opportunity and unique in the cruise industry! Our gay group trip within the larger Virgin Voyages ship still allows us to get to know each other and make new friends easily onboard as we will be sharing meals and plenty of other group activities together.

 

Brilliant Lady Gay Cruise

 

Virgin Voyages Brand New Brilliant Lady

Brilliant Lady will begin her maiden voyage in September 2025. Be one of the first sailors to experience this revolutionary ship design where interior spaces were curated by world-renowned interior designers Tom Dixon’s Design Research Studio, New York’s Roman and Williams, Concrete Amsterdam and Softroom.

The Brilliant Lady has pulled out all the stops to become a floating design icon. From the VIP top deck, club lounge and sky rooms through to that unique tattoo studio, you’ll find that no detail has been overlooked. You’ll be cruising the Caribbean in a ship that’s full of theatrical spaces and nautical touches, spiced up with a sense of drama and fun. And not a beige bedspread in sight.

 

Virgin Voyages Gay Cruise

 

Luxury Ship Features
If you’re in Mexico, you better make absolutely sure you’re making the most of every sun-kissed second. The Dock, the ship’s exclusive outdoor lounge, is where you can find total peace and tranquillity, with just the gentle sound of the waves and the occasional chatter of dolphins as they play in the bow waves. Feeling a little more active? The Athletic Club is the spot to head to, with the world’s largest daybed (they never do anything by halves onboard the Brilliant Lady) to relax on when you need a breather from all that chilling out.

 

Brilliant Lady pool deck

 

At night, the stars emerge with the glitz and glamour of The Manor nightclub. This dazzling club tips a nod to Richard Branson, charting his history in the music industry, and then celebrating that heritage by banging out some insane tunes until the small hours. If you want a break from the beat, head out on deck where you can gaze out at the ocean while a billion stars shine. This is the stuff memories are made of (oops, looks like another trip to Squid Ink, then…).

 

Brilliant Lady dining

 

Fuelling up on Food
No luxury ship is complete without food, food, and more food, and the Brilliant Lady doesn’t short-change you when it comes to chowing down. There’s over 20 choices of meals whenever you’re peckish – there’s no set menus or enforced meal times here. Whether you want a healthy snack at 6am or a midnight feast, the crew will cater for you.

First up, there’s Razzle Dazzle, where you’ll discover your inner vegan. Or, try the gloriously opulent Pink Algarve, serving Mexican fusion with all the trimmings.

And wait, what’s this? Street food onboard a ship? At the Brilliant Lady’s Galley, you’ll find eight different food stalls selling everything from tacos to sushi, burgers to bento boxes and noodles. You may be cruising the Caribbean, but that doesn’t mean the rest of the world can’t join in.

 

Brilliant Lady Spa

 

Wellness and Zen Time on your Adult Voyage
There’s a concept at Virgin Voyages – Vitamin Sea. There’s nothing quite like the ocean to restore that inner wellness we all crave, so onboard you’ll get the time to re-energise with some state-of-the-art activities in the Crow’s Nest.

You can detox with sunrise or sunset yoga classes, or retox with a few rounds in the boxing ring. The B-Complex gym space gets your heart pumping with some serious cardio, or go for some zen time in Redemption, the Brilliant Lady’s onboard spa.

Wallow about in glorious mud pools, get your chakras aligned on a quartz bed, or zone out with a spa treatment. Be warned, though: at night this mermaid’s hideaway transforms into a killer club, where the resident DJ gets things buzzing with some serious tunes.

 

Virgin gay cruise party

 

Brilliant Lady entertainment - mind-blowing revelry
Grab your glad rags, throw on your dancing shoes and be prepared to be amazed by some of the best cruise ship entertainment on the high seas. Virgin Voyages are going back to their musical roots with on board entertainment that’ll have you boogying until the sun comes up. Choose from a line-up of brand new, original shows and gigs developed by some of the best entertainers in the business. Like everything else on the Brilliant Lady, cruise entertainment doesn’t get much better than this.

Start things off with an on-board party at the Manor, the Brilliant Lady’s exclusive nightclub. Bag some front-row seats in the Red Room and be prepared to laugh your socks off or just stare slack-jawed in amazement at 21st-century magic and mayhem. The festival vibe keeps the curious entertained, and the cravers coming back for more. After a glorious meal and the best cocktails, it’s time to dance until dawn as the Brilliant Lady steams her way to your next port of call.

 

Brilliant Lady stateroom

 

Slumber at Sea in Luxury Cabins
Time for some snoozing, and Virgin Voyages have made sure that the cabins maintain that gloriously indulgent luxury you’ll find all over the Brilliant Lady. Tom Dixon’s had a hand here too, designing the RockStar suites with flair and individuality, but with absolutely no compromise on comfort. All of the RockStar suites are on Deck 15, just under Richard’s Rooftop (RockStar VIPs get exclusive access to the club).

Book a RockStar suite and you get a host of VIP extras including airport transfers, luggage assistance and a private walk down the terminal pathway on arrival, as well as anytime boarding and early booking for special events. If you want to feel like a real rock star, this is your chance.
