A couple moved onto a never-ending, around-the-world cruise that’s been stuck at port for 3 months — see inside the Villa Vie Odyssey ship

• Villa Vie says its residential cruise ship Odyssey will set sail on September 9 or 10 following a three-month delay.
• Lanette Canen and Johan Bodin left their home in Hawaii in the spring to move onto the ship.
• The couple said they were “very impressed” with Villa Vie Odyssey despite its delays — take a look inside.

Villa Vie Odyssey looks like any other cruise ship, complete with a modern pool deck, a buffet, a pickleball court, and excited travelers.

But Villa Vie Residences’ 509-cabin vessel won’t operate conventional Caribbean cruises or Alaska sailings.

Instead, the residential ship is readying to embark on a never-ending vacation that would circumnavigate the world every 3 ½ years, stopping at 147 countries and 425 destinations along the way — all while providing travelers with the comforts of a traditional cruise liner.
