To Cruise or Resort? That Is the Question! | Olivia

Every day is a new destination, with the Olivia magic sailing along with you as you glide to your next amazing experience. Cruises are part travel, part entertainment, and 100% community.

Considerations: 

• Multiple ports, one suitcase. Wake up in a new place without ever packing and unpacking again.
• A whole range of accommodations. Looking for an inexpensive room or a Neptune suite? Cruises offer a huge range of prices, from as low as around $1,000 per person for the week, and up. Pro tip: The least and most expensive rooms often get sold first and quickly - so booking closer to launch ensures you'll get the perfect room for you. 
• Community immersion. With everyone onboard together, connections build fast and run deep.
• Bucket list check marks. Cruises tend to cover more exotic and far-flung destinations, and the diversity of ports means you'll often come home having visited several notable destinations.
• Not everything is included. Cruise guests decide for themselves if they want to pay for special packages for things like wifi at sea or beverage packages.

Think tropical sunsets, laid-back luxury, poolside laughs, beachside frolicking, Olivia entertainment, and a home base you never have to leave (unless you want to). Olivia resorts are all-inclusive playgrounds where everything you need is steps away.

Considerations:

• All-Inclusive means all-inclusive.  Most Olivia resort prices include the full week's worth of food and drink and free Wi-Fi.  
• Come & go as you please.  Just you, your flip-flops, and an ocean breeze. Want to spend a whole afternoon lounging in a cabana? Want to go for it with pool games and beach Olympics? Just do it. Everything is at your fingertips. You can opt in or out of as much as you'd like without feeling FOMO. 
• The ability to go deeper.  Staying in one place for a week gives you the opportunity to get to know the landscape and the culture more than you can when you only have a day to explore. In many instances, you can choose to walk around, jump in a taxi or shuttle, or take a local excursion. 

• There you are!  If you’re someone who craves completely new scenery daily, staying put might feel a bit too still. Of course, you always have the option of visiting the nearby area or going on excursions off-resort!

Or do both.

Many Olivia travelers mix it up, cruising one time and resorting the next. Either way, you’ll experience that signature Olivia blend of community, comfort, and joy surrounded by LGBTQ+ women who get you. And both resorts and cruises feature daily Olivia meets-ups, activities, and entertainment, so there's never a dull moment.
