Four Seasons Yacht: Launched Four Seasons I
Last January, at the Fincantieri shipyard in Ancona, the launch of Four Seasons I, the first ultra-luxury yacht specifically built for Four Seasons Yachts, was celebrated.
This significant milestone marks Four Seasons‘ entry into the maritime industry and signals a bright future for the high-end cruise sector. The ship, which will set sail in January 2026, is not just a cruise ship, but a true revolution in the concept of onboard luxury, set to redefine the maritime travel experience for the most discerning cruisers.
Four Seasons I represents a turning point for the luxury cruise industry. Its design and construction are the result of a collaboration between Four Seasons Yachts, Fincantieri, and other industry experts, with the goal of creating a vessel that exceeds all expectations in terms of comfort, design, exclusivity, and sustainability. With its 207 meters in length and a gross tonnage of 34,000 tons, the ship is positioned as one of the most imposing in its segment. However, what truly sets it apart is not only its size, but the quality of the services and experiences it will offer its guests.
One of the most distinctive features of Four Seasons I is its exclusivity. Fully made up of suites, this ship will offer an intimate and personalized experience, with every room designed to ensure the utmost comfort and privacy. Each suite will have breathtaking sea views and spacious interiors furnished with the highest levels of refinement. The Funnel Suite, with its 457 square meters, will be the largest and most luxurious of all, representing the peak of onboard luxury, offering guests an unparalleled experience with spectacular views and tailor-made services. The suites will come with private terraces, customized furnishings, and exclusive services capable of satisfying even the most sophisticated requests.
In addition to its extraordinary design, Four Seasons I integrates the most advanced technologies in terms of environmental sustainability. The adoption of the latest technologies in waste management, water conservation, and emission reduction will make Four Seasons I one of the most eco-friendly cruise ships, while still providing an exclusive, uncompromised travel experience. These technological advancements align with the most stringent international sustainability regulations and meet the growing demand for ecotourism from increasingly environmentally-conscious customers.
The launch ceremony, attended by many prominent figures from the maritime and luxury industries, celebrated not only an important milestone but also the beginning of a new era for luxury cruising. Among the attendees were Biagio Mazzotta, President of Fincantieri, Pierroberto Folgiero, CEO and General Manager, and Luigi Matarazzo, General Manager of the Merchant Ships Division. For Four Seasons, Nadim Ashi, Owner and Executive Chairman of Marc-Henry Cruise Holdings LTD, Prosper Assouline, Creative Director of Four Seasons Yachts, and Bart Carnahan, President of Global Business Development for Four Seasons, were present. The ceremony officially kicked off the countdown to the ship’s debut, scheduled for January 2026.
For those seeking a maritime travel experience that combines luxury, privacy, and comfort, Four Seasons I offers the perfect solution. The ship doesn’t just offer a cruise but an experience designed for those who wish to live the sea in an exclusive way. With its entry into the luxury cruise market, Four Seasons Yachts positions itself as a benchmark for those seeking refined services and top-tier navigation.
