    Luxurious Suites and Accommodations

    Luxury travel can be defined differently for every type of guest, but there’s no better feeling than enjoying your vacation at ease, effortlessly and your way. From the moment you walk into your suite, you’ll notice the spaciousness and modern living space. Each suite offers a private terrace that overlooks the ocean, allowing guests the opportunity to enjoy an in-suite meal or beverage with a view. Every guest will feel unique and catered to with their Dedicated Personal Concierge. They'll be able to assist with any detail of a guest’s vacation like arranging dinner reservations at a specialty restaurant or accommodating private tours in each destination.

    Eclectic Dining

    Dining onboard a Ritz-Carlton cruise is about fresh ingredients that are expertly paired to give guests a taste of their local destinations and other world-renowned places. With five dining venues available onboard, guests will be able to choose to dine in a casual, alfresco or sophisticated setting. Each restaurant offers a menu and experience that is uniquely inspired, from the Southeast Asian fusions at Talaat Nam to the specialty dining experience created by Chef Sven Elverfeld of Aqua, the three Michelin-starred restaurant at the Ritz-Carlton, Wolfsburg.

    Intimate Entertainment

    Whether you enjoy relaxing, adventure, making connections or privacy, there is an entertainment option for every type of lifestyle and interest. Designed to enjoy spaces at ease, the Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection offers open areas for guests to be able to lounge, meet with friends or enjoy a cocktail by the pool.

    During the day, you won’t want to miss out on the casual, yet adventurous options the Marina offers. This multi-function platform allows guests direct access to the water. Those looking to explore outside the yacht  can enjoy a thrilling experience on water toys like kayaks and paddle boards.

    If you’re looking for a more relaxed atmosphere, you can treat yourself to a restorative spa experience in the Spa Treatment Room or can enjoy the same pleasures in the outdoor spa area.

    The first Ritz-Carlton yacht is set to sail February 5, 2020 from Fort Lauderdale, Florida and will begin its journey through some of the Caribbean’s most distinguished destinations including the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, St Kitts and Nevis, Guadeloupe, Martinique and Barbados.

    The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection will offer unique itineraries to destinations that large cruise ships cannot access, overnight stays and opportunities to take a cruise without repetitive destinations. The first yacht will take a journey through the Caribbean to the Mediterranean, Europe, Canada and New England.

    Ritz-Carlton yacht cruises are perfect for luxury travelers looking to immerse into their destination and experience the true essence of what they have to offer. Just like the intimate and personalized experiences onboard, prepare to discover more and explore deeper at your own pace. One day you could be visiting iconic sites, take a hands-on cooking class or try an adventurous excursion like zip lining. With Ritz-Carlton, your choices will truly be endless in every aspect.
