Have you heard? The ultra-luxury hotel company is taking to the seas. In anticipation of its debut, the new cruise line is unveiling the incredible, ground-breaking, multi-story glass 'funnel' and other suites guests will call home, as well as the first 10 voyages of the as-yet unnamed new small ship.
Inaugural Season Voyages: Caribbean Waters and Mediterranean Seas
The first of the Four Seasons Yachts is due to set sail in 2026. In its debut year, Four Seasons Yachts will explore more than 130 destinations across over 30 countries and territories. Naturally, guests of the upcoming Four Seasons Yachts can enjoy extended and customized itineraries with pre-and-post hotel and overland programs at their favorite Four Seasons hotels and resorts.
The first Four Seasons Yacht, whose name has yet to be revealed, will travel westbound from its shipyard in Italy, en route to the Caribbean for winter voyages from January to March 2026. The first Caribbean itineraries feature seven nights of exploration through the most exciting small-port yachting destinations including Saint Barthélemy (St Barths), Nevis, the Grenadines, St Lucia, Barbados, Martinique, Guadeloupe, Curaçao and Aruba. Destination highlights include indulging in the nightlife of St Barths, discovering Martinique's volcanic coral reefs and lush rainforest landscapes, a marina day in St Lucia's Tobago Cays, and much more.
Following its first winter in the Caribbean, the Yacht will reposition to Europe, with its first Mediterranean voyages in March 2026. Voyages will explore the coastlines of Croatia, Gibraltar, Montenegro, Italy, Portugal, Spain, and Turkey. In addition, an itinerary will also highlight the Greek Isles, with stops in Athens, Ios, Santorini, Milos, and more. Four Seasons Yachts says its approach to the destination will allow guests to explore under-the-radar islands steeped in culture and history, and offer experiences that go above and beyond the ordinary of Mediterranean sailings.
Bespoke Suites that Feel Like Home – with “50% More Space”
We’re also getting our first glimpse of suites on board – and, no surprise, they feel a lot like a sumptuous residential suite in a terrestrial Four Seasons hotel or resort, complete with panoramic views, elegant interiors and thoughtful details that will make you feel at home at sea.
According to the cruise line, suites on the Yacht will have “50% more living space per guest than currently available with any (other luxury, small ship cruise line) at sea.”
All suites will offer floor-to-ceiling windows showcasing sweeping sea views, double vanity bathrooms with expansive showers, and equally spacious closets and private terraces.
With an eye to family and group travel, the yacht’s accommodations involve a network of adjoining suites with a system of modular walls offering options for vertical and horizontal combinations within the signature suites. That innovative approach will result in more than 100 different connection options – as well as the unique opportunity for a group of family or friends to reserve an entire side of a deck!
Wraparound Glass Funnel and Loft Suites
The largest accommodations are seven signature suites ranging from 2,981 to 9,975 square feet of indoor and outdoor living space. They offer two to three bedrooms, separate living rooms, indoor and outdoor dining space, splash pools, outdoor showers, and the option to connect to additional suites.
The premier signature suite accommodations – the Funnel and Loft Suites – both feature three bedrooms, outdoor showers, and splash pools. The largest on board, the Funnel Suite, housed within the Yacht's glass-enclosed funnel, is 9,975 square feet, spanning four levels of living space. The suite's towering floor-to-ceiling wraparound windows, made up of the largest contiguous piece of glass at sea, is a one-of-a-kind engineering feat offering stunning 280-degree panoramic views. The Loft Suite is 7,952 square feet and can accommodate large group sizes of up to 20 people by connecting with seven additional suites, the largest number of connecting suites available.
Four Seasons Lifestyle Beyond Suites
Public spaces include 11 dining options, spa and wellness center, a state-of-the-art marina, and the stern pool, set to be one of the largest in its class of ships at nearly 65 feet long and 18 feet wide. The pool can be drained and its floor lifted, transforming it into outdoor space for weddings, celebrations and other events.
And of course, that all comes with Four Seasons-style service, with a 1:1 guest-to-staff ratio.
Bookings for Four Seasons Yachts open soon – watch this space to be among the first to experience a Four Seasons Yacht!
