How our Bliss Filters work
Designed to combine the luxury lifestyle of The Ritz-Carlton and the casual freedom of a yachting vacation, The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection will offer voyages on three custom-built yachts. Calling on out-of-the-way and tradition destinations alike, most voyages range from seven to 10 nights, offering many overnight calls and specially curated experiences ashore.
The first ship to sail, the 298-passenger Evrima, debuted in May 2022 out of Lisbon, Portugal, and features 149 elegant suites, all with a private balcony (or "terrace") and a vibe that aims for a relaxed, casually elegant atmosphere. The second ship, the 456-guest Ilma, will debut in September 2024 in the Mediterranean with the highest ratio of space per guest at sea and prices starting at $6,800 per person.
Both yachts will feature personalized service, elevated dining and luxury amenities as with The Ritz-Carlton on land. The ships will also sport attractive, spacious areas in both the suites and in public spaces that seek to combine the feeling of a private superyacht and a luxury hotel. A dedicated personal concierge (they're not called "butlers" here) is assigned to each guest, ready to assist with any detail of a guest’s vacation like arranging dinner reservations or a private tour on shore.
Dining on board a Ritz-Carlton cruise is an experience, from the fresh ingredients paired to give guests a taste of local destinations to the tasteful settings at venues that range from Southeast Asian fusion meals to a restaurant overseen by a three Michelin-starred celebrity chef.
The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection will offer distinctive itineraries to destinations that large cruise ships cannot access, from the pristine pink sands of Guadeloupe to the French shores of the Côte d’Azur — plus overnight stays and opportunities to take a cruise without repetitive destinations.
Ritz-Carlton yacht cruises are perfect for luxury travelers looking for deep destination immersion. On any given day you could be visiting iconic sites, taking a hands-on cooking class or embarking on an adventure such as ziplining. The voyages will also appeal to those who enjoy the personal attention afforded guests by personal concierges.
