Starting in September 2024, the second yacht, Ilma, from the renowned Ritz-Carlton hotel group will delight its maximum of 448 guests with exclusive cruises. The elegant and sophisticated Ilma offers you an exciting new way to explore the world's most famous yachting destinations. Ilma means "water" in Maltese and pays homage to the sea. Airy, light-filled suites and open-air terraces, as well as a wonderful marina right on the waterfront, connect you with the picturesque waters.
From elegant specialty restaurants to casual poolside dining, the dining options aboard Ilma offer something for every taste. The innovative menus are inspired by local cuisines from around the world, allowing your taste buds to travel from the Mediterranean to Southeast Asia without leaving the yacht. The modern interiors invite you to dine in an atmosphere of understated luxury, while the outdoor areas allow you to enjoy the fresh sea air and panoramic views. The chefs select only the finest ingredients—local produce, premium beef, fresh seafood, artisanal cheeses—which are essential to the success of every dish. With their expertise, they then create menus that showcase their culinary talent—from freshly caught grilled fish by the pool to an original interpretation of a French cassoulet. Discover the collection of restaurants that redefine dining at sea.
Retreat to sublime comfort each evening and wake refreshed in your private oasis aboard Ilma. Combining the spacious, home-like feel that is a hallmark of The Ritz-Carlton® with the graceful design of stylish yacht interiors, each of the 224 suites is furnished with high-end designer pieces and luxurious amenities. Breathe in the fresh sea air as you relax on your private terrace and let your personal concierge cater to your every need. If it weren't for the fascinating adventures awaiting you on land, you might never leave your suite.
After a day exploring historic towns or hidden coves in the Mediterranean, relax on your private terrace and watch the sun set on the horizon as you look forward to where the sea will take you next. With the most space per guest at sea, Ilma offers 224 suites—all with private terraces—and features two new upper suite categories with more than 1,000 square feet. The signature marina includes expansive new areas where you can admire the view while sipping a cocktail or enjoy water sports directly from the yacht. Relax in a casual atmosphere of elegance as you set sail to discover the world. With five restaurants, six bars, and a wine cellar, Ilma offers culinary experiences for every palate, from casual poolside dining to gourmet evenings for wine connoisseurs. A voyage on the Ilma promises the unparalleled, personalized service that is the hallmark of the renowned Ritz-Carlton hotel chain. The yacht-style itineraries offer the freedom and flexibility to explore at a relaxed pace, docking in cosmopolitan cities as well as remote ports.
