The World

NOTE - THE WORLD DOES NOT OFFER ITINERARIES IN THE TRADITIONAL SENSE. YOU CAN JOIN OR LEAVE THE SHIP AT ANY PORT AND THE MINIMUM STAY IS 6 NIGHTS


Voyagers aboard The World have the opportunity to experience castles in Denmark, salsa lessons on the Mexican Riviera, world-renowned vineyards in Italy and France, the rare artisanship of the San Blas Islands and New Year’s Eve celebrations in Hawaii. Each year, residents of this international community enjoy approximately 250 days in port with extended stays for in-depth exploration and world-renowned special events, such as the star-studded Cannes Film Festival and Monaco’s thrilling Grand Prix.

The concept of traveling the world without leaving home was conceived and developed by Norwegian Knut U. Kloster, Jr., the former chairman of Royal Viking Line and Norwegian Cruise Lines. Kloster is also a member of the renowned shipping family that pioneered the modern cruise industry in the early 1960s.

The World of ResidenSea offers the comfort and privacy of a luxury vacation home, the personal service of a world-class resort and the mobility of a grand ocean liner that circumnavigates the globe. It houses an exclusive community of discerning adventurers committed to enjoying life to the fullest. With its 110 spacious, fully furnished luxury residences, The World of ResidenSea provides a unique lifestyle and an exciting new way to travel the world. It offers the advantages of owning a home with an ocean view in more than 100 countries - without the maintenance, logistics, and other inconveniences typical of vacation-home ownership.
