The World of ResidenSea, the only resort community circumnavigating the globe, offers you the choice of owning a home or enjoying a unique vacation experience at sea. This strikingly beautiful ship - elegant and intimate - promises gracious and personal service in a warm, inviting ambiance much like that of a private yacht, seaside villa or exclusive country club.

The World began its pioneering odyssey in March 2002 on an ever-winding world voyage, featuring extended stays in port that give residents and guests the time to experience all the sights, sounds and flavors of the world's most exciting destinations. Both residents and vacationing guests are offered the flexibility of embarking and disembarking in ports of call of their choice; for guests, vacation stays are booked at daily fares. ResidenSea invites individuals and corporations worldwide to purchase rights to occupy furnished and fully serviced residences, with those sales covering the cost of the ship. The company operates the resort and manages the ship. A yearly charge to cover the ship's operating expenses is distributed between the residents and the company. Additionally, the ship's 88 studio residences and many of the privately owned residences are available for rental to vacationing guests. Enjoy a unique vacation experience onboard The World with accommodations that are home-like and spectacular. Your choices range from studio to six-bedroom apartment residences, available for vacation stays for as few as three days, or for as long as you would like.
