The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection has officially launched its latest masterpiece, ‘Ilma,’ a luxury superyacht designed to elevate high-end ocean travel. Departing from Barcelona, ‘Ilma’ is now sailing through the Mediterranean, offering guests an unparalleled experience in luxury cruising.

Built to accommodate only 228 guests, this ultra-luxurious yacht is designed for discerning travelers who seek the opulence of a Ritz-Carlton hotel at sea. Featuring spacious suites with private terraces, five gourmet restaurants, an expansive wellness spa, and state-of-the-art sustainability features, ‘Ilma’ redefines the concept of yachting for the elite.

Unlike traditional cruise ships, ‘Ilma’ is focused on exclusivity, offering a more intimate and personalized journey. The ship is designed with advanced noise and vibration controls, ensuring a tranquil experience as it navigates some of the world’s most desirable destinations.

The yacht’s maiden voyage takes guests on a breathtaking tour through the Mediterranean, with stops at picturesque coastal cities in France, Italy, and Greece. After the Mediterranean season, ‘Ilma’ will set sail for the Caribbean, offering winter escapes for those seeking sun-drenched luxury.

Ritz-Carlton’s expansion into the yachting industry is part of a growing trend among hospitality giants catering to ultra-high-net-worth individuals who desire bespoke travel experiences. With ‘Ilma,’ the brand is setting a new standard for maritime luxury, blending world-class hospitality with the adventure of the open sea.

For those seeking an intimate yet extravagant journey, ‘Ilma’ promises to be a floating sanctuary of elegance, service, and sophistication.
