Evrima
The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection’s inaugural vessel, Evrima, offers a decadent experience resembling a luxury hotel, set on the ocean. Featuring unparalleled attention to detail, culinary excellence, and the most indulgent of spa and fitness experiences, Evrima is paving the way for a new standard and world of yachting. Evrima’s sprawling relaxation deck encapsulates the vision of the Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection, with high-tech treatment spaces, sauna and steam rooms where magical passing shorelines provide the ultimate backdrop, and ultra-comfortable cabana pods and sun beds for post-treatment relaxation.
The ship’s six dining venues range from the casual, chic Pool House to the Michelin-starred S.E.A. restaurant, where multi-course tasting menus take centre stage. The rooms don’t compromise on size; all 149 cabins are suites with a private sea-facing balcony and range from 300 square foot Terrace suites to the 1000 square foot regal Owner’s Suite, coupled with a private 635 square foot terrace.
Whether experimenting in the gourmet dining scene or relaxing on the expansive observation deck, those on board are treated to a carefully curated blend of luxury and exploration, ensuring an unforgettable journey aboard Evrima.

Ilma
Ilma, which translates to water in Maltese, beautifully pays homage to the ocean. Spacious suites with private terraces, open-air lounges, and multiple dining experiences (worth the sailing itself) are ready to welcome passengers aboard this vessel in September 2024.
Ilma is larger than the fleet’s first vessel, Evrima, with 228 suites, and offers five restaurants, six bars, a wine vault, a Ritz-Carlton Spa, and a children’s area for the new Ritz Kidz programme. The all-inclusive experience takes on a new meaning on Ilma, where those aboard can enjoy world-class features, regardless of suite type or voyage duration, from sampling innovative menus inspired by local cuisines around the world to the Marina-style platform, which has access to a range of non-motorized watersports while at anchor.
A standout feature of Ilma’s is its eco-friendly technology; the yacht will be powered by liquefied natural gas, which is currently the cleanest marine fuel, significantly reducing emissions. Ilma will also incorporate other environmental technologies, such as an advanced water treatment system, heat reuse technology, and LED lighting to minimise its environmental impact.
Bespoke voyages, ranging from five to thirteen nights, will transport guests to a host of coveted destinations, from the sun-drenched Greek Isles and the idyllic Amalfi Coast to the iconic yachting playgrounds of the French Riviera and the Balearic Islands. With one of the highest staff-to-guest ratios in the luxury cruising sphere, Ilma will provide nearly one crew member for each guest, ensuring the unparalleled service synonymous with The Ritz-Carlton brand.
Ritz Carlton Yacht Collection ‘Shore Experiences‘
An offering across all of the Ritz Carlton Yacht Collection’s vessels are the “shore experiences”, which embody a culture of luxury and personalised experiences that cater to travellers with an appetite for cultural immersion. These meticulously crafted excursions let guests explore destinations exactly how they wish and distinguish the collection from other yachting experiences. From setting off on a bespoke private experience curated by destination experts, seeing both must-see landmarks and hidden treasures, to organising a multi-day exploration before or after your voyage, the Ritz Carlton Yacht Collection creates an authentic experience that gives those on board a true sense of the destination.
