Cruise Elite, Inc was born of two experienced agents love for travel and each other. Marc and Marisel together with over 35 years cruising and travel experience, met by chance on board Royal Caribbean’s Adventure of the Seas in June of 2003. Their ship board romance has not only brought about a marriage, but Cruise Elite, Inc. a modern online and store front agency run by “Real Agents, who really travel“. Since it’s inception in 04, Cruise Elite’s corporate focus is on our customers. It’s not all about price, it’s about value. We monitor all cruises & tours we have clients on for the best available price, should the price of a cruise or tour drop & regulations allow us to lower our clients price*, we do it. We challenge you to find an agency who will back that statement.
In November, 2007, Marisel Aleman, Vice President of Cruise Elite, Inc of Ormond Beach, was chosen to serve on the Inside Sales Travel Agent Advisory Board for Royal Caribbean International. Marisel was one of 20 agents chosen from over 15,000 nationally for this honorary position. Marisel has been the driving force in Cruise Elite’s climb to national recognition and was chosen for her expertise in Royal Caribbean’s fleet and worldwide itineraries. She is also a Royal Caribbean Diamond Plus member, Celebrity Cruise Line Elite member, a CLIA Master Cruise Counselor and is a world traveler. Together with our full time staff of experienced Travel Advisors, it’s easy to see why Cruise Elite is the “Seasoned Travelers’ Choice”.
