Four Seasons yacht begins maiden voyage in the Mediterranean

Four Seasons inaugural yacht set sail on its maiden voyage in the Mediterranean on March 20.

Four Seasons I departed from Málaga in Spain and will complete a nine-night itinerary, visiting ports in Menorca (Spain), La Joliette (France), Nice (France), Ponza (Italy) and Trapani (Sicily), before guests disembark in Malta.

During its debut year, the vessel will operate 32 itineraries across 52 sailings, operating in the Mediterranean before repositioning to the Caribbean and Bahamas this winter.

The brand said this inaugural season “marks the beginning of a long-term global vision, with additional itineraries and vessels planned in the years ahead”.

Four Seasons I features 95 suites, including the forward-facing Funnel Suite and aft-facing Loft Suite, which each offer three bedrooms, a kitchen and dining area and an expansive dining area with a splash pool.The Funnel Suite also houses an outdoor gym, while the Loft Suite has a private sauna and steam room. There’s also the option for additional interconnecting suites. 

The ship features 11 restaurants, including a Mediterranean venue and Japanese omakase experience, while Sedna will offer a rotating chef-in-residence series with guest talent from Four Seasons hotels.

The spa houses a thermal circuit, featuring a sauna, steam room and cryochamber. Guests can also take part in private sessions, such as breathwork, fitness training and sunrise yoga.

Guests will be able to enjoy bespoke shore and sea excursions.

President and chief executive officer of Four Seasons, Alejandro Reynal, said: “Four Seasons Yachts debuts on the same day that the very first Four Seasons hotel opened 65 years ago, making this milestone even more meaningful as we celebrate the history of our company, while looking forward to the bright future ahead.

“Four Seasons Yachts is a continuation of the pioneering ambition on which Four Seasons was built, and will reflect the same genuine care, service excellence and exceptional moments we create for guests on land. We are proud to introduce a new expression of our brand at sea, opening an entirely new horizon for our guests.”

Four Seasons Yachts has released details of its 2027-28 Caribbean season, which introduced 18 itineraries and 18 new destinations.
