RITZ-CARLTON EVRIMA YACHT
Ritz-Carlton's highly-anticipated superyacht cruise finally made its debut in October
2022. Evrima, the first of three custom-built yachts
from the famous hotel chain's Ritz-Carlton Yacht
Collection, began a seven-night cruise from Barcelona,
Spain to Nice, France on October 15.
The 190-meter vessel, which can accommodate 298
passengers, is made up of 149 suites with a private
terrace, as well as floor to ceiling windows, and
features an infinity pool, a wine vault, a Ritz-Carlton
Spa, a nightclub and its very own marina.
Accommodation options ranging from
standard cabins to two-story "loft-style" apartments to
a sprawling 1,091- square-foot "owner's suite" with a
private hot tub.
Evrima is a cruise ship for people who hate cruises.
Evrima has 20% more public space per passenger than
conventional cruise ships, and her upcoming sisters,
Ilma (sailing 2024) and Luminara (2025), will be even
more spacious.
With 253 crew members, Evrima was about good times and
social experiences. Crew is trained on Ritz-Carlton’s 12
values for customer service — which include knowing
guests’ names and fulfilling their needs before they
anticipate them — that they carry in their pockets and
review at daily meetings. The ship’s hotel director was
previously hotel director at the Mandarin Oriental Hyde
Park.
Evrima yacht, co-managed by Yacht Port- folio and Ritz-Carlton
Hotel Co, a subsidiary of Marriott International Inc,
delivers a lot of people’s idea of perfection. “Our
competitor is a villa in Tuscany or a safari, not a
cruise,” says Douglas Prothero, founder and CEO of
Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection and Yacht Portfolio. “This
is a yachting lifestyle,” Prothero adds. “We are not
trying to be a cruise ship.
This yacht is a Ritz-Carlton property, with Velvet and
silk and buttery leather upholstery, cool marble and
chrome, plush carpet... Evrima has no buffet, casino,
hokey theatre shows and activities. What it has is a lot
of class — from the spacious, hotel-like suites with
balconies and marble bathrooms with porcelain sinks, to
the kind of outdoor spaces that will allow you to fulfil
any private yacht fantasies.
The ship's restaurants
were all impressive. Complimentary wine flows at all
meals. If you don’t care for one varietal, ask for
another. Dedicated gourmands will want to try Sven
Elverfeld Aboard. Its chef earned three Michelin stars
for his restaurant at the Ritz-Carlton Wolfsburg in
Germany.
The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection is revolutionizing the
luxury cruising industry, creating an entirely unique
category designed for those in search of unmatched
getaways, highly curated itineraries.
By 2026, Four
Seasons, Orient Express, and Aman will debut superyacht
cruises, but for now Ritz-Carlton owns the waters.
The Four Seasons has announced plans for its first
vessel, a 14-deck, 679-foot-long superyacht with 95
suites, which is scheduled to enter service in late
2025. Orient Express's world's largest sailing ship, the
722 ft
Orient Express Silenseas
will enter service in 2026.
Aman will launch the 600-foot
Sama
in 2025.
We build this primarily
wood model of the Evrima in three
sizes:
- 21.5" long (1/350 scale) $3,990 Shipping and insurance in
the contiguous USA included.
Other places: $250 flat rate. Note
that this size doesn't have our spectacular lighting
feature.
- 37.5" long (1/200 scale) $4,950 Shipping
and insurance in the contiguous USA included. Other
places: $400 flat rate.
- 52" long (1/144 scale) $7,700 Shipping

Models are built per commissions only. We require only
a small deposit (not full amount, not even half) to start the process $900. The
remaining balance won't be due until the model is
completed, in 6-9 months, depending on sizes.
We
also have good information about the
Ilma
and thus can build its model
at 27", 47.5", and 66" long.
