Yachting,

The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection
Ultra-Luxury Yachting Reimagined
The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection combines legendary Ritz-Carlton service with the elegance of private yachting, creating an intimate, all-inclusive luxury cruise experience unlike any other. Launched in 2022, The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection is designed for discerning travelers who seek personalized service, spacious accommodations, and immersive itineraries to the world’s most sought-after destinations.
Unlike traditional cruises, The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection provides a superyacht-inspired atmosphere, where every moment is curated for relaxation, refinement, and enrichment. The yachts carry between 298 and 452 guests, and every accommodation is a suite with a private terrace. Expect exceptional dining, generous space per guest, and a crew who learn your name in a day.
Designed for travelers who appreciate exclusivity, flexibility, and unmatched service, The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection elevates luxury cruising to a new level, seamlessly blending yacht-style freedom with five-star hospitality.
Superyachts, Not Cruise Ships
Small Enough for the Harbours the Big Ships Can’t Reach
The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection didn’t build cruise ships. They built superyachts and put the Ritz-Carlton name on them, which means the service you expect from the hotels arrives at sea with you. Every suite has a private terrace. Every yacht has a marina platform that folds out of the hull so you can swim, paddleboard and kayak straight off the back. And they’re small enough to tie up in the harbours where the 3,000-passenger ships have to anchor offshore and tender you in.
Current & Upcoming Yachts
- Evrima (2022) – The first yacht in the collection, Evrima carries up to 298 guests and features 149 spacious all-suite accommodations, each with a private terrace. Designed to evoke the feeling of an ultra-luxury private yacht, Evrima offers multiple dining venues, a state-of-the-art spa, and a marina-style platform for water sports.
- Ilma (2024) – Ilma expands the concept, with 224 suites for around 448 guests, five restaurants, seven bars, and two infinity-edge pools. She has one of the highest space-per-guest ratios anywhere at sea.

Service & Amenities
The Service You Know From the Hotels, With a Terrace and an Ocean
Most luxury lines have to explain what their service is like. Ritz-Carlton doesn’t. You already know — you’ve stayed at one. The point of this collection is that the same standard, the same anticipation, the same quiet competence, has been put on a yacht and sent to Positano.
Signature Onboard Experiences:
- The Ritz-Carlton Spa® – A serene retreat offering facials, massages, and holistic wellness programs inspired by the yacht’s destinations.
- Marina & Water Sports – A private marina platform providing direct access to the ocean for swimming, kayaking, paddle boarding, and more.
- Personalized Shore Excursions – Exclusive land experiences, including private vineyard tastings, cultural tours, and guided nature hikes.
- Fitness Center & Yoga Deck – A state-of-the-art gym offering personal training, yoga, and meditation classes with ocean views.
From Champagne welcome receptions to world-class spa treatments, every aspect of The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection is designed for elegance, relaxation, and enrichment.
