The main reason most people purchase a vacation home is specifically for that lifestyle or landscape change. One new unique idea for travel enthusiasts and those who enjoy different landscapes is a floating condo. Imagine a luxury cruise ship paired with a luxury seaside property - a floating condo beautifully combines the two into a fabulous cruise deals that you can live, vacation in and enjoy for years. Many companies such as P and O Cruises offer vessels and you will be able to find one they will port in the many Greek ports so you can enjoy SAMOS Greece from the water’s edge in your floating home!
In 2002, the first floating condo ship, the "World," embarked on the maiden voyage. At that time, 60% of the units had been sold; now it is nearly full. When the statistics are considered, it is clear that the ideas of these floating luxury apartments are popular. As with anything else tangible that gains popularity, the demand will soon rise. When demand is high, prices also raise. Currently, these beautiful luxury nautical homes can be purchased for under $2 million per unit with leasehold of 100 years. Fractional ownership on a monthly basis can also be purchased for under $200,000 on some ships. 
There are plenty of luxury amenities that come with a floating condo. All materials used to build the ship and apartments are of the finest quality. Spas, lounges, fine dining and extraordinary ocean views are all included in the price. Some ships are focused on special interests. For example, the ship "Orphalese" follows the Cannes Festival in the South of France and the Lunar New Year in Shanghai, China.
Magellan is another line that offers superb quality. In comparison with other lines, their prices are slightly lower. They also offer the option for weekly ownership rates, ranging between $2,800 and $7,000 per week, which is affordable for not only millionaires, but those who wish to take a luxury vacation as well. For those who are considering buying a long-term leasehold, but want to see if cruising is enjoyable and fits their lifestyle, ships with a weekly rate are a good choice. It is a good idea to be certain before signing a contract, as some lines do not offer refunds or sublets.
For cruise enthusiasts, a test cruise is not necessary. The matter of choosing a favourite provider and destination is the biggest choice for such buyers. Some lines only cruise to specific parts of the world, while others may have more optimal stops for a buyer's personal preferences. Not only are destinations important, but amenities are as well. Consider all concerns before choosing, such as what type of crowd will be drawn to the ship, what services are available, what type of dining options are available and what types of special interests the ship line focuses on. Owning a floating condo is a great investment for any travel or cruise enthusiast who wants to experience luxury nautical living.
