    Cruises aren’t particularly cheap, they’re generally $100-300/night, per person, which is similar to a hotel. If you want a nicer room,that’d extra. They’re pretty affordable as vacations go, but hardly close to a permanent living arrangement.

        That $2.5k/mo is actually ridiculously good when you consider it includes everything.

      Cheaper than a retirement home, and with doctors on board.

          100 bucks a night is only 3k a month, so yeah it is

            I live in rural Wisconsin and the retirement homes around here cost more than that for independent living where residents get 1 meal a day free, an emergency pendant and a weekly maid coming through to clean. Living on a cruise ship can easily provide more accomodations than that for less cost

      I daresay permanent residents aren’t paying that much.
