Villa Vie Residences today announced the Legacy, the company's second residential cruise ship, expected to enter service in early 2029.
The company did not name which ship it would be acquiring, but did share a rendering (above).
The official unveiling will take place during Villa Vie Odyssey's Two-Year Sailaversary Celebration, commemorating two years of continuous world cruising, according to a press release.
The company said that this comes as the Villa Vie Odyssey surpasses 85% of its available residences sold, creating a new challenge for prospective owners.
Many have expressed interest in Legacy's larger accommodations but are reluctant to postpone nearly three years of travel waiting for the new ship to enter service.
"When we launched Odyssey, we set out to prove that residential cruising wasn't just possible—it was sustainable," said Mike Petterson, Founder of Villa Vie Residences. "Two years later, with Odyssey more than 85% sold, we've reached an exciting milestone. Legacy is the natural evolution of everything we've learned from our residents and operations around the world."
Designed as a premium sister ship to Odyssey, Legacy is expected to feature residences approximately 50% larger than comparable accommodations aboard Odyssey, together with expanded dining venues, larger public spaces, enhanced wellness facilities, and additional luxury amenities.
Ownership pricing and monthly maintenance are anticipated to average approximately 30% higher than Odyssey, reflecting the vessel's larger residences and elevated onboard experience.
To eliminate the need for prospective residents to wait until 2029, Villa Vie is also introducing the Legacy Bridge Program. To commemorate Odyssey's 24 months of continuous operation, only 24 Legacy Bridge Positions will be offered, one representing each month Odyssey has continuously sailed around the globe.
Available to the first 24 new ownership purchases completed on or before September 30, 2026, the program provides participants with: Immediate residency aboard Villa Vie Odyssey; The guaranteed right to transition to a comparable residence aboard Legacy when the vessel enters service in early 2029; No additional purchase price when making the transition and Odyssey maintenance rates honored aboard Legacy, despite Legacy's anticipated higher maintenance pricing.
