Bonaire Welcomes The World Luxury Cruise Ship

March 12, 2025

On March 5, Bonaire welcomed The World luxury cruise ship, which remained in port until March 7.

MS The World is a private, lavish residential cruise ship operating like a condominium complex. Residents from various countries own spacious apartments on board. These residents decide in advance where in the world they would like to go and Bonaire has been a destination chosen more than once. The total capacity is between 150 and 200 residents, with a crew of 280, while the ship has 12 decks.

Tourism Corporation Bonaire (TCB) operated the hospitality desk onboard, where the residents could seek advice on island activities, make dinner reservations, book car rentals, and arrange other experiences.

The World previously visited Bonaire, and TCB hopes the island’s experience will encourage future visits. By continuously improving our product, we can guarantee more visits from this and other similar ships.
