Evrima

Evrima launched The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection in 2022 and remains its most intimate yacht, with fewer than 300 guests and a crew that often greets you by name by the second day. Every suite has a private terrace, and the top accommodations include two-level Loft Suites with sweeping windows. Dining is a highlight, led by S.E.E.D., a tasting-menu restaurant created with Michelin-starred chef Sven Elverfeld. A fold-down marina at the stern lets you swim and paddleboard straight from the yacht in calm anchorages. The dress code is relaxed, and itineraries favor smaller harbors in the Mediterranean, the Caribbean and Central America.

Best for: Travelers who want the smallest, most intimate Ritz-Carlton yacht with excellent dining and a relaxed dress code.

The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection brings the Ritz-Carlton hotel brand to sea with three superyacht-style ships carrying about 300 to 450 guests, every suite with a private terrace. Voyages favor glamorous, smaller harbors in the Mediterranean and Caribbean with long stays and overnights. Fares include drinks, gratuities, Wi-Fi and most dining, and Marriott Bonvoy members earn and redeem points. It suits affluent travelers who want a resort-like yacht experience rather than a traditional cruise.
