A small family of travel apps that skip the accounts, the ads, and the cloud lock-in. It starts with Cruise Companion.
Every app under VacayBooked.com follows the same rules: local-first, no accounts, no ads, and built to keep working when there's no connection to lean on.
Made with cruisers in mind, but flexible enough for any vacation — stateroom, ports, and every excursion in one place, plus flights, hotels, and the rest of the trip too. Works with zero signal, even mid-ocean.
Indoor wayfinding built specifically for the Carnival Vista — find your cabin, deck, and dining room fast, with no signal required. This app is tuned to that one ship's layout and won't work for navigating any other ship.
"Made with 💙 for my wife AnnMarie" isn't just a footer line. This is her, on our balcony, looking out over Grand Turk — the reason this whole thing exists.
— Troy, builder of VacayBooked.com
That's Troy and AnnMarie. VacayBooked.com started as a single app — a cruise planner Troy built because the tools he wanted didn't exist. It's grown into something bigger: a home for travel tools built the same deliberate way, one at a time, by someone who actually uses them.
No venture funding, no growth targets, no reason to put an account wall or an ad between you and your own trip data. Just apps built to be genuinely useful, kept free — for every trip like the ones pictured on this page.
Every app here is completely free — no strings attached. If Cruise Companion (or whatever we build next) has made your trip planning easier and you'd like to contribute toward keeping it running and growing, it's genuinely appreciated.
