Xtasy Land Cruises™ is a visionary land-based cruise resort concept created by Bruce Goldwell. The core idea is simple, bold, and memorable: the world's first cruise line that sails without water.
Instead of boarding a ship at sea, guests enter a permanent luxury resort designed to feel like a cruise vacation on solid ground. The concept can include luxury staterooms, gourmet dining, entertainment, top-deck pools, themed zones, retail, events, and all-inclusive vacation packages.
"A vacation does not have to leave the shore to carry people into another world."
— Bruce Goldwell
Xtasy Land Cruises is designed to replicate the atmosphere, comfort, entertainment, dining, and visual excitement of a luxury cruise ship while remaining permanently located on land.
Guests can enjoy the feeling of a cruise vacation without ocean travel, seasickness, port schedules, weather delays, passports, or boarding logistics.
A permanent land-based resort that recreates the look, feel, rhythm, and excitement of a cruise ship vacation.
Because it does not sail, the concept can operate year-round in tourism markets, inland cities, resort districts, and theme-park-adjacent locations.
Packages may include lodging, dining, shows, pools, activities, themed events, family entertainment, and resort-style amenities.
Designed for families, cruise lovers, seniors, couples, tourists, event groups, and guests who want cruise atmosphere without actual sailing.
