Under the guidance of Villa Vie Residences, a pioneer in modern residential cruising, the Odyssey’s launch is a testament to the company’s commitment to offering an unmatched lifestyle that combines the comfort of home with the thrill of exploration. The ship’s acquisition signifies a pivotal moment, as Mikael Petterson, the CEO of Villa Vie Residences, articulates, “Our journey to provide residents with a quality of life beyond compare takes a significant stride forward with Villa Vie Odyssey. It embodies our vision of luxury, adventure, and personalized service on a global scale.”

The Odyssey is slated for an extensive eight-week renovation in Belfast, a project poised to redefine onboard living. The refurbishment plans are ambitious, including introducing a cutting-edge business centre, a revitalized pool deck, a pickleball court, an expansive observation deck, and a culinary centre designed to cater to the refined palates of its residents. Furthermore, all 480 staterooms will undergo comprehensive upgrades, ensuring unparalleled comfort and sophistication.

The transformation of the Villa Vie Odyssey is more than just a renovation; it’s a revolution in residential cruising. As Petterson emphasizes, “This is not merely about luxury travel; it’s about setting a new standard for living a life without borders, offering our residents the flexibility and opulence they deserve.”

With Captain Jozo Glavic, a seasoned mariner known for his leadership and expertise, at the helm, the Odyssey is poised to embark on its maiden voyage from Southampton, England, on May 15th. This marks the beginning of an extraordinary three-and-a-half-year journey across seven continents, offering residents the opportunity to explore 13 of the 14 Wonders of the World and countless secluded tropical paradises, all from the comfort of their floating home.

Kathy Villalba, Chief Operating Officer of Villa Vie Residences, is excited about Captain Glavic joining the team. “His wealth of experience and successful track record promise an exhilarating adventure for our residents. We are thrilled to have him lead the Odyssey into this new chapter of global exploration.”

For those yearning for a life of adventure without sacrificing the comforts of home, the Villa Vie Odyssey stands as a beacon of innovation and luxury. As it journeys across the globe, it promises enriching experiences and heralds a new way of living where the world truly becomes your neighbourhood.
