The Magellan Residential Cruise Line is now offering a new vacation club program, the Magellan Club. For 20 years, club owners get a personalized two-week vacation to any of the ship’s destinations – 300 ports-of-call in 150 countries.

Magellan Club membership is fully transferable to a third party after the inaugural sailing of the ship. Holiday scheduling will be on first-come, first-served basis, and scheduling opens 12 months prior to sailing with no changes permitted 60 days prior to sailing. Arrivals to the ship are on Sundays with departures from the ship on Saturdays. The Magellan Club membership fee is transferable to future fractional or full ownership purchases on the Magellan depending on availability.

Private residences on the Magellan range in price from $1.875 million to $8 million for penthouses and from $156,250 for fractional ownership residences. One bedrooms are priced in the $90,000 range. Amenities include a fully retractable marina, an Aqua spa, and a 450-seat broadcast satellite capable theatre featuring Broadway-quality entertainment.

Construction on the Magellan is slated to begin soon, once financing is completed. Their planned launch is May 2009. For more information on the Residential Cruise Line and similar offerings, see our Quick Guide to Residential Cruise Ships.
