Life On Board

The Victory I offers the perfect balance between comfort and adventure. Most of the dining areas and interior spaces offer window views, so you can enjoy new vistas and experiences on board. Take a closer look at all that the Victory I offers to make your voyage as pleasant and enriching as possible: 

Dining Room

There’s no shortage of ways to enjoy fresh, regionally inspired meals while sailing aboard the Victory I! Choose from three dining options: the Coastal Dining Room, The Grill and the Tavern. Each offers a unique atmosphere, from refined elegance to cozy casual. There’s even a special fourth option — by night, The Grill becomes The Tuscan Stone Grill, where passengers can watch as their dinner selections are cooked on a volcanic lava rock.

Lounge

When looking for a comfortable setting to gather and relax, the Compass Lounge is the place to be. This spacious area is surrounded by windows that offer sweeping views, but the real show often takes place on stage, where passengers can take in grand piano performances, musical sing-alongs and engaging presentations from our Road Scholar instructors. Whether you’re enjoying a refreshing cocktail or discussing the day’s events with other Road Scholars, the Compass Lounge is sure to be a favorite gathering spot.

Sundeck

With 360-degree views, comfortable lounge chairs and options to sit under the sun or the coverage of a pergola, you’ll find it hard to tear yourself away from the Victory I’s sundeck! It’s the perfect spot to scope out your next port or catch the sunset after leaving your previous one.

Salon and Spa

Need an extra special touch? Whether it’s a relaxing massage after a big day of learning or a quick touch-up with a hairstylist, you don’t have to get off the ship to find rejuvenating amenities!
