WHY IT RATES: For travel agents working with LGBTQ clients, the introduction of VACAYA offers a new and interesting option when booking vacations.—Donald Wood, Breaking News Senior Writer.

"We're rewriting the playbook," proclaims VACAYA CEO Randle Roper. "With only a few notable exceptions, options for our community have been severely limited. Now, LGBT+ travelers have a rock solid new choice. They've waited a long time for a guest-focused company like VACAYA to come along, and we can't wait to share all we have in store!"

VACAYA will be the first large-scale full-ship/full-resort LGBT+ vacation company to:

—Offer a full-resort takeover from The Leading Hotels of the World's UNICO Riviera Maya.

—Offer included perks like spa treatments, excursions, and more at UNICO.

—Sail the largest ship in history into Provincetown Carnival.

—Sail on Celebrity Summit following her multi-million-dollar refresh.

—Offer guests opportunities to give back to the communities they visit.

—Offer online booking 24/7/365.

VACAYA CMO Patrick Gunn adds, "VACAYA is about exploring new destinations, building lifelong memories, and giving back to the communities we visit. This spirit is captured perfectly in our tagline: open sea. open mind."
