The luxury hotel group has announced a new and exciting business extension – Four Seasons Yachts. It marks a partnership with leading shipbuilders and entrepreneurs, a stellar team, bringing an unparalleled cruise experience to the market.
A billion Euro project
The project brings together an impressive group of partners: Nadim Ashi and Philip Levine, are leading luxury entrepreneurs and bold visionaries for this exceptional yacht experience; and Fincantieri of Italy is one of the world’s most renowned shipbuilding groups, on track to deliver the first new vessel by the end of 2025. Last July it was announced that the yacht had been placed on order (along with an option for two further vessels) with an estimated bill of approximately EUR 1.2 billion.
The splendour of modern sea voyaging
The Four Seasons Yacht begins with bespoke craftsmanship, adding the group’s long-proven dedication to excellence and its attentive, personalised service. It will appeal to the discerning guest looking to reimagine their love of travel by taking a modern sea voyage in supreme comfort. With its inaugural journey anticipated for late 2025, the anticipation (along with the vessel itself) is being built.
Mesmerising accommodation
The first yacht will be 207 metres (679 feet) long and 27 metres (88.6 feet) wide — a size that allows for an elite, boutique feel, yet with ample space for the kinds of facilities and indulgent feel you’d expect from Four Seasons. 95 suites will be exceptionally large, offering floor-to-ceiling windows and access to expansive private terrace decks; the most impressive will span four levels and over 9,600 square feet, with a private spa and a wading pool.
Creating something extraordinary
Christian Clerc, the president of Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts, says its latest departure: “Four Seasons Yachts represents the next chapter of our long history of industry-leading innovation, and a milestone moment for our company as we continue to capitalise on new opportunities to extend the world of FourSeasons. True vision rests in the ability to imagine possibilities while always remaining loyal to one’s values. Our vision for this new venture does exactly that. Together with our partners at Marc-Henry CruiseHoldings LTD, we are creating something extraordinary that combines their expertise with what Four Seasons does best – delivering unmatched quality and excellence, surrounded by beautiful acts of service and love for our guests.”
The first itineraries will traverse the Mediterranean and Caribbean, taking guests on shoreside adventures in port. With bookings expected to open in 2023, watch this space if you’d like to be among the first to experience Four Seasons’ incredible new yacht.
