Residential cruise line Villa Vie Residences is launching a new all-inclusive “forever cruise” package.
Called Unleashed Endless Horizons, the program allows passengers to spend their life at sea for a one-time payment of $399,999 (single occupancy) or $699,999 (double occupancy). The program includes meals, accommodations, housekeeping, laundry, high-speed internet, alcoholic beverages, spa treatments and medical check-ups.
“Our one-of-a-kind offering redefines retirement with an all-inclusive lifestyle like no other,” says Kathy Villalba, chief executive officer of Villa Vie Residences. “Imagine leaving behind traffic, stress, and the daily grind to embark on a seamless journey with a community of like-minded explorers—all for one transparent, affordable upfront cost.”
Participants are guaranteed an outside cabin on the Villa Vie Odyssey, which recently finished the South American segment of its continuous 3.5-year world cruise. This spring, the ship will transit the Panama Canal before traveling up the West Coast of North America to spend summer in Alaska.
“At Villa Vie Residences, we continue to push the boundaries of what's possible in cruise retirement, and our latest program is the ultimate way to secure the best life for the rest of your life," says Mikael Petterson, founder and chairman of Villa Vie Residences. “We've redefined retirement to perfection—no stress, no worries, just endless enjoyment and adventure.”
