The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection delivers a luxury cruise experience in an intimate setting, with a heightened level of care and attention. At each turn, Ritz-Carlton Cruises has designed something - an evening of unexpected entertainment, an unforgettable meal, an exclusive excursion ashore - to inspire awe and amazement.
Every detail of your surroundings have been considered. Accommodating just 298 guests, each yacht in the collection has been thoughtfully designed to fuse the spacious, residential feel of The Ritz-Carlton properties with the innovative design quality of the world's most stylish yacht interiors.
With nearly one crew member for every guest, Ritz-Carlton Cruises' Ladies and Gentlemen ensure that your every need is met with genuine care. From handcrafting your favorite cocktail for a sunset toast, to planning a bespoke excursion that satisfies your taste for adventure, personalized service is at the heart of the yacht experience.

Explore new coastlines by kayak, enjoy an afternoon of sailing, or find your center as you try your hand at paddleboarding. When you're ready to relax, settle into a chaise lounge and soak up the last rays of sun with a signature cocktail.
