Villa Vie Residences, the pioneer in residential cruising, announces World Uncharted—a breathtaking 301-day voyage that boldly redefines what a world cruise can be. Launching in November 2027, World Uncharted is more than just a cruise; it’s a sweeping odyssey across five continents and over 100 countries, combining slow paced travel with a sense of global belonging.
From the dense jungles of the Amazon to the remote expanse of Antarctica, this once-in-a-lifetime itinerary features legendary crossing through the Panama Canal, rare landings in the Falkland Islands and Easter Island, and even journeys to Greenland’s icy frontier.
“In our eighth month of sailing with full-time Residents, we’re proud to introduce our boldest adventure yet,” said Kathy Villalba, CEO of Villa Vie Residences. “World Uncharted embodies how far we’ve come—and just how far we’re going.”
Unlike traditional world cruises that rush from port to port, Villa Vie Odyssey is designed for deeper immersion. With stays of up to five days in many destinations, residents can dive into local culture, cuisine and community. Onboard, the experience is tailored for long-term living: a business centre with high-speed Starlink internet, including laundry and housekeeping services, and a welcoming atmosphere where neighbours become family.
“This is not a cruise. It’s a lifestyle,” said Mikael Petterson, Founder and Chairman. “World Uncharted is a journey where new friendships are forged in every port where neighbours become family in an ever-moving floating community.”
The Villa Vie Odyssey is currently sailing its North American segment, with an extended Alaska season planned before continuing to Japan.
