Babe's Hash Cruise - Getting Hashers Wet Since 1995
Extra Features for this Eclipse Cruise!
The cruise and itinerary
Below is the link to the Virgin site to get all the details of the cruise. But don't book online with Virgin! You'll want to book with Babe to get the 10% off current rate on select balcony cabins, the balcony $300 group bar tab added (can be used only on drinks) AND the additional $200 Sailor's Loot from the travel agency (can be used on any other onboard charges).
NOTE: The $300 Bar tab applies to group space bookings (nearly sold out). Currently, a $200 bar tab plus $50 Sailor's Loot (in addition to our $200 Sailor's Loot) is the offering for bookings outside the group space.
Hashers + All Adults + Solar Eclipse + Exotic Mediterranean
Scarlet Lady - August 10 - 22, 2026 12 Night cruise Barcelona to Rome
Virgin has now been Babe's Hash Cruise tested and approved!
To start with, It's more inclusive than other cruise lines. Included in the fare is:
All Dining (20+ outstanding eateries). I agree. It's the best food of any cruise line.
Basic beverages (soda, coffee, water and tea). I'll address the GOOD drinks below.
Gratuities included in all pricing.
WiFi included
Fitness classes (Never leave camp!)
All onboard entertainment.
Pajama Party, Scarlet Night (Red Dress) pool party, Y2K party and LOTS more!
High energy vibe with a crew that is having as much fun as YOU are!
We'll have our own hash trails on and off the ship. Need proof that Virgin is ideal for hashers? One of the Scarlet Lady's theme night is scarlet night. Pack your favorite red dress!
On this ship, you'll also find
Tattoo studio on board. Casino. Spa. Bars everywhere!
Best of all - NO KIDS. No kidding. Adults only!
The Caribbean was fun, but now we are stepping it WAY up! Now we have an amazing exotic Mediterranean cruise itinerary plus pre and post lube options in Barcelona and Rome!
Discover the Virgin Difference!
Award winning!
This is what being different gets you.
Virgin sweeps the Cruise Critic cruisers choice awards for 2023.
Also awarded top cruise line by Conde Nast (2023 & 2024), Travel & Leisure (2023 & 2024) & Travel Weekly (dominated with 11 2024 awards).
Cool Cabins
Change the mood of your cabin with colorful mood lighting or have your app open your curtains. The balcony (Sea Terrace) cabins all come with a sex.., I mean, hammock swing. This is one ship where leaving the room can be a challenge.
Best FOOD!
Foodies, rejoice! This is NOT your standard cruise fare. This is creative, experimental blending of flavors you may have never considered before. Come find out why so many people (including myself) consider Virgin to have the best food in the cruise industry. Want to see more, check out the video below.
Drinks!
"Dammit Babe, it took you long enough to get the the most important part! Tell me about the drink package."
Well. There isn't one.
Instead, you purchase a bar tab. Virgin is getting us started with a $300 bar tab per cabin (balcony cabins within the group space) and Babe's travel agency is kicking in $200 sailor's loot (can be used for drinks or whatever). So you are buying drinks as you go and charging it to your prepaid tab. Why is this better than a drink package? Drink packages are very expensive and obligate you to drink a lot every day to get your money's worth out of them... even days where you are off the ship for most of the day or just not feeling it or feeling last night TOO much. So a standard cruise drink package can be a loser for some hashers who may not want to feel obligated to drink 8 to 10 drinks a day, every day just to get their money's worth. Or be told that you have to stop at 15 drinks by the cruise line. With the bar tab you are getting your money's worth every day regardless of how much you drink. You purchase your bar tab online prior to the cruise and often they run specials that add additional credit to your tab. And yes, it's sharable. You are welcome to use your tab to purchase drinks for other hashers.
Like Babe.
