About the Company

The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection

Ultra-luxury yachting and cruises operator

The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection offers ultra-luxury, all-inclusive voyages on custom-built superyachts, blending The Ritz-Carlton hospitality with private-yacht charters.

Its goal is to bridge the gap between big luxury cruise ships and private yacht charters, attracting Ritz-Carlton loyalists who are new to cruising and growing the ultra-luxury yacht-cruise offering.
