Last weekend marked a significant moment in the realm of ultra-luxury travel, as Four Seasons launched its first yacht—
Four Seasons I—embarking on its inaugural cruise through the enchanting Mediterranean waters.
A New Era for Four Seasons
This launch not only represents a major milestone for the renowned hospitality brand but also coincides with its illustrious 65th anniversary. With this expansion into luxury yacht travel, Four Seasons is poised to redefine the cruising experience.
Specifications and Design
Stretching an impressive 679 feet, Four Seasons I is crafted to evoke the ambiance of a private yacht rather than a conventional cruise ship. Featuring just 95 suites and maintaining a one-to-one guest-to-staff ratio, it ensures an atmosphere rich in space, privacy, and customized service.
Luxurious Accommodations
Each suite is designed with a residential aesthetic, providing numerous options for expansive terraces and private plunge pools. The remarkable Funnel Suite spans nearly 10,000 square feet, boasting breathtaking ocean views, while the Loft Suite features a spacious aft-facing terrace, seamlessly merging indoor and outdoor living.
Culinary Excellence at Sea
Culinary offerings aboard this vessel redefine gourmet dining, establishing it as a premier culinary destination on the water. Guests can indulge in a variety of dining experiences across 11 restaurants and lounges. Among these, Sedna showcases a lineup of Michelin-starred chefs from Four Seasons properties worldwide, presenting diverse menus from Mediterranean seafood to curated omakase experiences centered on seasonal, high-quality ingredients.
Wellness and Leisure
Prioritizing wellness, the onboard L’Oceana Spa offers an array of treatments, including hydrotherapy, cryotherapy, and infrared therapy, complemented by daily activities such as yoga, meditation, and personalized fitness sessions.
One of the most unique features of this yacht is its transverse marina, which allows direct access to the sea from both sides of the vessel. This area provides a private waterfront retreat, ideal for water sports and curated ocean experiences.
Voyages and Destinations
Throughout its inaugural season, Four Seasons I will traverse the stunning Mediterranean, stopping at renowned locations such as Saint-Tropez, the Greek Isles, and the picturesque shores of Croatia, before making its way to the Caribbean and the Bahamas this winter.
Redefining Luxury at Sea
The debut of Four Seasons I establishes a new standard for luxury yacht travel, blending Four Seasons’ trademark hospitality with the uninterrupted tranquility and freedom of the open sea.
