Help for boardApartment rental vs. cruise ship cabin rental

Many people say that renting a houseboat cabin is very expensive, so it's not worth investing in such a trip.

So let's compare the prices.
An average small apartment in Los Angeles rents for $3,000 per month; A such apartment is about 300sq ft in size, so it's not big. To this monthly rental cost there are additional expenses. All costs are written at the lowest price, so these costs may be higher.
Water, electricity, gas, internet monthly cost about $550-$800
Monthly grocery shopping minimum about $400-$800
If you have a car (one), the monthly fueling of this car, calculated for basic use only, is at least $500.



So you can say that the basic minimum monthly budget for two people is about $4,500-$5,000.
And that doesn't include, say, a 2-week holiday.
On this amount, a very modest household can be maintained without an annual holiday.
By contrast, if you rent an inside cabin on a Victoria Cruises ship, your monthly cost will total $4,679 (loyalty program) for two people. This includes cleaning and all the other costs that would be an extra charge for a land-based apartment. And free internet including.
And of course it doesn't include our own labor, because we spend at least 1 hour every day at the super market, with cleaning at one hour per week. With the other work that goes into maintaining a household, you can count on another 8-15 hours a week or so. (washing up, laundry, ironing, etc.)

If you rent a cabin with Victoria Cruises you will not have these costs and you will not even have to spend extra on your holiday.
All in all, if you are still working and don't need to travel to work every day, the alternative offered by Victoria Cruises is a great way to try a new lifestyle.
If you are retired, you can live like a king. Everywhere on board, they're just listening to your wishes; you can spend colorful days in different cities (ports); you, you don't have to worry about shopping; you don't have to deal with household chores. You simply have to live and travel in this wonderful world called Earth.
Now please think and count.
Which solution is cheaper and better?



Of course, we can't and don't want to convince you that your life will be much better if you travel with us and experience everyday life on board a ship.
But if you love cruising and want to live a unique and varied life, then you're on board.
The Victoria Cruises team is waiting to offer you a special service.
Don't miss this fantastic opportunity and book your cruise as soon as possible.

The number of cabins/suites available is decreasing by the day.
