Villa Vie Residences, the pioneering residential cruise line redefining life at sea, today announced a groundbreaking 5-Year Ownership Plan starting at just $49,999 giving travelers, retirees, and digital nomads the opportunity to own their oceanfront residence and sail the world aboard the Villa Vie Odyssey.
