Travel solo. Come as a couple. Bring your friends. Bring your adult family.
Join Social Vacations for five nights in the Caribbean aboard Virgin Voyages’ Scarlet Lady — with two of our Social Vacations hosts, a built-in community of travelers and plenty of opportunities to meet, connect and have a great time together.
Book your cruise through Social Vacations and all Social Vacations group experiences are included at no additional cost. The same prices, deal and extras you’d get by booking through Virgin directly but with so much more.
[ BOOK DOMINICAN DAYS 2027 ]
The destination gets you there. The people make you come back.
THIS IS MORE THAN A CRUISE
You could book a cabin and do the cruise on your own.
Or you could cruise with Social Vacations.
Our goal is simple: make it easier to meet people and create connections while you’re traveling.
Whether you arrive knowing everyone or knowing absolutely nobody, you’ll have opportunities to connect before the ship even leaves Miami and throughout the cruise.
No forced activities. No obligation to join everything.
Just a great group of people, an incredible destination and plenty of chances to have fun together.
PUERTO PLATA, DOMINICAN REPUBLIC
Culture, Adventure & Caribbean Sunshine
Puerto Plata gives you a little bit of everything: beautiful beaches, colorful Caribbean culture, history, great food and plenty of ways to turn up the adventure.
Spend the day exploring the historic streets and local shops, relax on a tropical beach, chase waterfalls, ride the cable car for incredible views, sample Dominican rum, or head out on an excursion with some of your new Social Vacations friends.
Prefer to keep things easy? Grab a drink, find some sunshine and enjoy the fact that you’re in the Dominican Republic in March instead of sitting at home looking at vacation photos on your phone.
Explore it your way, but don’t be surprised if a few people you met at the hotel meet-and-greet ends up joining you for the adventure.
BIMINI, BAHAMAS
Turquoise Water. White Sand. Pure Island Time.
Welcome to Bimini, a tiny slice of the Bahamas surrounded by ridiculously blue water and the kind of beaches that make you seriously reconsider your return flight.
Spend the day at Virgin Voyages’ Beach Club at Bimini, where you can grab a lounger, cool off in the pool, swim in turquoise water, enjoy the music, order a cocktail or simply claim a patch of white sand and forget what day it is.
Feeling adventurous? Explore more of the island, get out on the water, snorkel, or see what makes this little Bahamian island such a favorite Caribbean escape.
Or keep it simple.
Sunshine. Warm water. Cold drinks. Good people.
Sometimes that’s really all a vacation needs.
THE SOCIAL VACATIONS EXPERIENCE STARTS BEFORE THE CRUISE
PRIVATE TELEGRAM GROUP
Once you book through Social Vacations, you’ll get access to our private Dominican Days Telegram group.

TWO HOSTS. ONE BIG VACATION CREW.
Dominican Days is hosted by Matt and Lisa, the faces behind Social Vacations.
With two hosts onboard, you’ll have people you can count on throughout the trip to help bring the group together, introduce you to other travelers and make sure you feel part of the experience.
Whether you’re traveling solo, as a couple, with friends or with your adult family, Matt and Lisa are there to help turn a ship full of strangers into a vacation full of connections.
Come say hello, join the group, and let us help make Dominican Days a vacation you won’t forget.
