Four Seasons Yachts: Prices, Suites, Dining, Itineraries, How To Book

Four Seasons is known for its luxury hotels, though soon the brand will be getting into the cruising industry, with the introduction of Four Seasons Yachts. Four Seasons is taking a unique approach toward its journeys, because the whole concept almost seems designed for people who wouldn’t necessarily take cruises.

Four Seasons Yachts will set sail in early 2026, and journeys have been bookable for quite some time now. I want to take an updated look at what guests can expect, as a lot of additional information has been released over time. I’ll go over all the information in detail below, but just to cover some of the very basics:

• Four Seasons Yachts will offer an all-suite experience with just 95 accommodations on the ship, offering one of the most exclusive cruising experiences to date
• Four Seasons Yachts is selling cruises for sailings as of January 2026; the best way to book these is through a Four Seasons Preferred Partner travel advisor, as they can add a shipboard credit, which you won’t get when booking direct
• Four Seasons Yachts will initially sail the Caribbean and Mediterranean, offering five to 14 night cruises
• Four Seasons Yachts rates start at roughly $3,000 per suite per night, including breakfast, non-alcoholic drinks, light snacks, and gratuities; lunch, dinner, and alcohol, aren’t included

With the above out of the way, let’s take a closer look at the details.

What is the Four Seasons Yachts ship like?

Four Seasons Yachts is the name of Four Seasons’ new cruising venture, which is a partnership between the hotel group and Marc-Henry Cruise Holdings Ltd. The plan is to eventually offer multiple vessels, with the first expected to be delivered in late 2025, and the second expected to be delivered in late 2026.

The ships are being produced by Italian shipbuilder Fincantieri, with interiors by Tillberg of Sweden, and creative direction by Prosper Assouline. Each vessel has an estimated cost of around €400 million.

While I’ll talk more about the accommodations below, let me first cover some of the basics of the ship:

• The vessel will be 207 meters (679 feet) long and 27 meters (89 feet) wide, and will feature 14 decks
• The vessel will have just 95 accommodations, in an all-suite layout
• The ship will feature 11 different restaurants and lounges, to give guests a variety of options
• The ship will feature an onboard transverse marina, allowing guests easy access to water toys that you’d traditionally only find on privately owned yachts; this will also offer tiered lounging decks
• The aft deck will boast a 20-meter (66-foot) salt water pool, making it one of the largest at sea; this can quickly be emptied and the floor can be raised, and converted into a multi-function area
• The ship will offer nearly 50% more living space per guest than what’s currently available in the industry, and will have a staff to guest ratio of roughly 1:1
• As a relatively small and intimate “cruise ship,” Four Seasons Yachts will, when possible, anchor and then tender guests into the port, as opposed to using a cruise terminal
• Kate McCue will be the first captain of Four Seasons Yachts’ ship; she’s kind of a cruising legend, and probably the world’s most famous cruise ship captain

I want to briefly put into context just how spacious this ship it. For example, Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection is another luxury cruise line associated with a hotel group. The company’s first ship, Evrima, is 190 meters with 149 rooms, while this one will be 207 meters with 95 rooms, which is a huge difference.

What are suites like on Four Seasons Yachts?

Four Seasons Yachts will feature just 95 accommodations, in an all-suite layout. The cabin layout here completely redefines what you’d ordinarily expect to find on a cruise ship, from the size of the entry level accommodations, to the absurdly over-the-top specialty suites. You can view all the details of the suites at this link.

First let’s cover the four suite categories of which there are multiple available, which make up 88 of the 95 suites onboard (all the square footage amounts include indoor and outdoor space):

• There will be 42 Seaview Suites, offering 537 to 613 square feet, and featuring a spacious bedroom with a double-vanity marble bathroom and a private terrace; this can accommodate two adults and one infant
• There will be 15 Superior Seaview Suites, offering 807 to 893 square feet, and featuring a bedroom with a large sitting area, a double-vanity bathroom with a soaking tub and walk-in shower, and a large outdoor terrace; this can accommodate two adults and one infant or one child
• There will be 15 Ocean Suites, offering 893 to 1,011 square feet, and featuring a larger bedroom, a separate living room, floor-to-ceiling windows, and a private terrace; this can accommodate three adults, or two adults and two children
• There will be 16 Grand Ocean Suites, offering 1,012 to 1,140 square feet in an “L-shape,” with a large living room, bedroom, and terrace; this can accommodate three adults, or two adults and two children

Beyond that, there are seven specialty suites, with the most impressive being the Funnel Suite, which is a four level suite that covers a total of 9,975 square feet. This has everything from a splash pool, to a private elevator, to an outdoor gym, to a private kitchen.

What is dining like on Four Seasons Yachts?

Four Seasons Yachts will feature 11 distinct restaurant and bar concepts, so there’s no shortage of choice. While I’ll talk more about inclusions in a bit, let me emphasize that only breakfast, snacks, and non-alcoholic drinks are included with these sailings, so lunch, dinner, and alcoholic drinks, come at an extra charge. With that in mind, here are the venues:

• Terrasse will be the all-day dining venue, serving coastal Mediterranean cuisine
• Miuna will be open for lunch and dinner, serving a Japanese omakase experience
• Sedna will be open for lunch and dinner, serving as the fine dining restaurant
• Salon will be the all-day lounge area, serving drinks, snacks, afternoon tea, and more
• Bar Piscine will be the all-day pool bar, serving cocktails, meals, and more
• Champagne & Caviar will be open in the evening, serving champagne and caviar with a view
• Horizon Lounge will be open for lunch and in the early evening, as an adults-only venue with a beach club vibe
• Marina Bar will be the all-day snack bar, serving light bites, like smoothies, sandwiches, and more
• Cigar Lounge will be open in the afternoon and late into the night, with a selection of spirits, cigars, and more
• Bar O will be open in the afternoon and late into the night, embracing the cocktail culture of the 1960s and 1970s
• Pistachio will be the all-day cafe, serving coffee, fresh pastries, and more

How expensive are Four Seasons Yachts journeys?

Obviously Four Seasons Yachts is going after the high-end of the cruise market, and the company is largely targeting people who might otherwise consider chartering a private yacht.

Nonetheless, pricing is actually more attractive than most people had assumed. The first thing to understand is that pricing is per suite, rather than per guest. Most cruise lines have a per person cost based on double occupancy, while in the case of Four Seasons Yachts, you’re simply paying for the suite, regardless of how many people are in them (up to the occupancy limit).

Four Seasons Yachts journeys start at roughly $3,000 per suite per day. The exact cost varies by journey, but you’ll pretty regularly find entry level pricing within that range. Furthermore, as you’d expect, the premium suites can go for a lot more, with the Funnel Suite regularly costing $200K+ per journey.

You can look up the cost of sailings directly on the Four Seasons Yachts website. Just look up any journey, and then look at the section listing suite types and fares. The taxes and fees beyond what’s listed are typically minimal.

When the concept of Four Seasons Yachts was first announced, many people assumed a cruise would cost six figures for any kind of suite. So the pricing ended up being much lower than that (though obviously still at the top end of the market).

What’s included with Four Seasons Yachts journeys?

Four Seasons Yachts is taking a different approach than other cruise lines when it comes to inclusions. When some people think of a cruise, the thought of a floating all-you-can-eat buffet might come to mind. Four Seasons is going exactly the opposite direction. With Four Seasons Yachts:

• All rates include daily breakfast, a selection of non-alcoholic drinks, some light snacks throughout the day, and gratuities
• Lunch, dinner, and alcoholic beverages, will be available at an additional cost
• All meals and beverages for children 12 years of age and under are included in the fare

On the surface, it might seem a little strange for what might just be the world’s most luxurious cruise line to also have among the most a la carte pricing. But I can also see where they’re coming from:

• Four Seasons wants to create a resort experience at sea; just as Four Seasons doesn’t have all-inclusive resorts on land, it also doesn’t have it at sea
• I would think Four Seasons assumes that many guests will specifically want to dine off the ship in many of the destinations that are served (like in the Mediterranean), so including all meals is kind of silly

Obviously this is a tradeoff. Everyone would rather have something included than not. But at the same time, I think the cruise costs are lower than many expected, but with an a la carte component.

Keep in mind that if you book through a travel advisor affiliated with Four Seasons Preferred Partner, you can receive a shipboard credit, which can at least help offset some of the costs incurred onboard.

How do you book Four Seasons Yachts cruises?

The best way to book a Four Seasons Yachts itinerary is through a travel advisor affiliated with Four Seasons Preferred Partner. There’s no markup when booking through a travel advisor, and they can help you sort through all the details, and can even add a shipboard credit (which varies based on the length of the itinerary and type of suite that you book).

So, what are the logistics of booking like? For most suite types, your itinerary can be placed on a 24-hour hold. Then a 25% deposit will be required to lock in your booking, with the balance due 150 days before the sailing. Up until that point, you generally have the ability to cancel, minus an administrative fee. You’ll want to check with an eligible travel advisor to learn the exact terms, as they do vary.

Bottom line

Four Seasons is getting into the luxury cruise business, with the introduction of Four Seasons Yachts. The inaugural journeys are on sale for sailings as of early 2026. It’s exciting to see Four Seasons get into the cruising business — the brand is known for its great hotels, so hopefully it can deliver the same experience at sea.
