tl;dr – This second vessel will take an already luxe experience up a notch.
Four Seasons just unveiled the plans for its second vessel as part of its Four Seasons Yachts – The Four Seasons II. If you’re reading You Are Travel, you know that I’ve covered (extensively) all the luxury hotel brands that want to hit the water. Four Seasons is no stranger to this. However, different from some of its competitors, where the hotel brand’s name is licensed to a third-party operator, Four Seasons Yachts is a joint owner/operator partnership between Four Seasons and Marc-Henry Cruise Holdings Ltd. Four Seasons directly manages all the hospitality, guest relations, and daily hotel operations on board.

The Four Seasons’ first vessel, the Four Seasons I, set sail on its maiden voyage in March. That boat was already pretty supped up. This second yacht might even be more luxe.

Boasting a near 1:1 guest-to-staff ratio, one of the second vessel’s defining features will be its Yacht Residential Suites.
“Instead of standard staterooms, the upper decks will house sprawling, two- to four-bedroom suites. These include integrated lifestyle kitchens, bespoke living spaces, and entertainment areas.” Some higher-end suites feature private wrap-around terraces, splash pools, and outdoor showers.

Guests can expect 11 distinct culinary concepts (including bars and restaurants) and immersive wellness treatments.

The ship will also feature resort-style pool decks and a marina that opens on both sides for direct water access.

For transportation to shore, “guests will use custom, climate-controlled limo tenders designed to feel like floating boutique suites.”
Set to sail sometime in 2028, the Four Seasons II will feature 79 expansive suites, including a new collection of luxe rooms featuring a one-to-one guest-to-staff ratio.
Several voyages are already bookable, including the ‘Monaco Roundtrip: An Italian Riviera Passage,’ which starts at $21,400/suite.

If cruising isn’t your thing but you’re still a fan of the Four Seasons, rest easy, as you have several upcoming properties to look forward to.
