MV Narrative is a planned residential cruise ship that will be owned by the Miami-based company Storylines.[1][2][3][4] It is anticipated to be launched in 2027 from Croatia.[3][5][6]

The vessel's design consists of 530 residences and various amenities.[3][1][7] It is designed to sail to six continents, allowing residents to use their units as temporary or permanent homes.[3][1] Units range from one to four bedrooms, most with balconies, and are available in coastal or contemporary interior designs.[3][1] The ship is expected to feature twenty restaurants and bars, a microbrewery, three pools, a bowling alley, fitness and medical facilities, and other amenities.[8][1] A youth education program is slated to be provided for children on board.[3] All-inclusive fees, which cover housekeeping, gratuities, laundry service, meals, and Wi-Fi, are expected to be mandatory.[3][9]

Construction

Storylines signed a construction contract with Brodosplit Shipyard in Split, Croatia, to build MV Narrative, which will be powered by liquefied natural gas (LNG).[10][11] The contract with Brodosplit Shipyard was renewed in March 2024, with the ship's design progressing in preparation for construction.[12][13]
