Four Seasons Yachts transforms the art of yachting as it embarks on inaugural voyage

Four Seasons Yachts inaugural vessel, Four Seasons I, has embarked on its maiden voyage in the Mediterranean, translating Four Seasons hospitality into a new frontier of ultra-luxury travel.

The first voyage setting sail on March 20, 2026 is symbolically important, as it coincides with the 65th anniversary of Four Seasons and the opening of the company’s first hotel on the first day of spring in 1961, as well as Four Seasons extending its globally recognised hospitality from land and sky to sea.

In its debut year, the Yacht will introduce 32 voyages across 52 sailings, exploring 130 distinct destinations in more than 30 countries and territories throughout the Mediterranean in summer and the Caribbean and Bahamas in winter.

The second Four Seasons Yacht, Four Seasons II, will debut in 2027.

The Exceptional Design of Four Seasons I

Spanning 207 metres (679 feet), Four Seasons I ,has been conceived as drawing inspiration from the legendary superyacht Christina O, reinterpreted through a contemporary lens.

Luxury yacht suite with spacious living area, floor-to-ceiling windows and private terrace overlooking the ocean

Meticulously designed with just 95 expansive suites – all featuring generous indoor-outdoor living, floor-to-ceiling windows, generous terraces, no interior cabins and supported by a one-to-one guest-to-staff ratio – the Yacht enables a level of personalisation rarely experienced in a seaborne setting.

Among the Yacht’s most exceptional accommodation, the nearly 10,000-square-foot (929-square-metre) Funnel Suite is positioned at the forward-facing prow, offering sweeping panoramic views. At the opposite end, the nearly 8,000-square-foot (743-square-metre) Loft Suite features an expansive aft-facing terrace.

Culinary Excellence at Sea

Culinary artistry sets Four Seasons I apart as a gastronomic destination with 11 restaurants and lounges – from refined Mediterranean seafood to an intimate omakase experience.

Serving as the centrepiece of the onboard offering, Sedna will introduce the signature Chef-in-Residence series, which welcomes a rotating roster of talent from Michelin-starred Four Seasons restaurants, including Christian Le Squer of Le Cinq at Four Seasons Hotel George V, Paris; Luca Piscazzi of Pelagos in Athens; Guillaume Galliot of Caprice in Hong Kong; Yoric Tièche of Le Cap in Cap-Ferrat; and Paolo Lavezzini of Il Palagio in Florence.

The Horizon Bar features its own plunge pool and a striking open-air design, creating a relaxed setting for daytime gatherings. Bar O offers a more intimate lounge dedicated to craft cocktails and rare spirits, inviting guests to linger over a nightcap in an elegant setting.

Wellness Experiences Guided by the Five Elements of Vitality

The Yacht’s wellness experience is anchored by L’Oceana Spa which offers premium treatments and amenities, including a hammam and a thermal circuit complete with a sauna, aromatic steam, and cold therapies.

Additional innovations and treatments include cryotherapy, infrared therapy beds, hydrotherapy, advanced recovery treatments, sunrise yoga and meditation on the Yacht’s deck, private breathwork sessions, personalised fitness training, and guided mindfulness practices.

Introducing the Transverse Marina

The Yacht’s transverse marina – which opens across both sides of the vessel – transforms into a private retreat with direct sea access, water sports, and curated recreational programming. Features of this scale and design are exceptionally rare at sea, placing the Yacht among a select few globally to offer such direct, immersive access to the water.

Customised Shore and Sea Experiences range from secluded coastal explorations and private cultural encounters to coveted dining reservations and bespoke adventures that bring each destination to life.

For its inaugural season, Mediterranean itineraries pair iconic ports with off-the-beaten-path coastal discoveries. Highlights include storied enclaves such as Saint-Tropez, sought-after destinations like Bodrum, and lesser-frequented harbours including Hydra and Montenegro, alongside sailings across the Greek Isles and Croatian coast.
