Condo Cruise Ships

The World of Residensea

Commentary: ResidenSea's 'The World' just barely lost out first place to Magellan primarily because the  Magellan will have significantly more activities and entertainment options. Of course, The World actually exists while the rest are still on paper. For those who do not wish to wait several years, The World is the only option right now. The World also offers short term rentals so potential buyers can "try out" the ship before buying one of the few units available for re-sale. Even though there is no actual competition from any other existing ships, The World provides a significant level of amenities (spa, fine dining, etc.). Less a raucous cruise ship experience and more like a private yacht (albeit a big one with a couple hundred passengers), The World attracts attention at its port stops due to the novelty of being the first condo cruise ship. The World is nearly the same size as the Four Seasons so buyers interested in buying a brand new unit on the Four Seasons could try a cruise on The World to get a sense of the size. The World does offer a good selection of different floor plans (not all are available at any given time, however) and sizes to fit most budgets in this class.
