Four Seasons Yachts is the hotel group's move into the sea. Its first yacht, Four Seasons I, is new for 2026 and carries under a hundred suites, with the Funnel Suite, a multi-level suite built into the ship's funnel, as its signature. Early itineraries are in the Mediterranean and the Caribbean. I have not sailed it, nobody has for long, and I treat every detail as provisional until the ship has a season behind it.

Funnel Suite and the upper suite categories
- The Funnel Suite spans several decks inside the funnel structure and has its own terrace and plunge pool. It is the largest suite on the yacht.
- Below it are a small number of large suites with private terraces, then the standard suites, all with balconies.
- The line has said it will use the Four Seasons hotel service model rather than cruise butlers.
- Guest count is low for the size of the yacht, which is the line's main claim: more space per person than any competitor.
What comes with it
- All dining
- Open bar
- Gratuities and Wi-Fi
- Anything else is still being confirmed
From Florida
Announced Caribbean itineraries are expected to turn around in Miami or the Eastern Caribbean, but the first seasons are new and can change. I confirm the actual port before anyone plans a drive from Naples.
The ships
Four Seasons I
Meant to feel like a Four Seasons resort on the water: understated, expensive and quiet. Whether it delivers is something only the first guests can say.

Who should look elsewhere
