Ritz-Carlton Luminara Review

Review of ritz-carlton luminara.

The 2025-built Ritz-Carlton's Luminara cruise ship is the third/last of the three ultra-luxury expedition superyachts owned by Marriott International Inc (shipowner). The ship is operated by The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection (cruise brand and subsidiary of The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company/ official website ).

The vessel (IMO number 9967598) will be Malta- flagged (MMSI tba) and registered in Valletta .

Luminara is a feminine name derived from the Latin word for "light".

History - construction and ownership

Ritz-Carlton's cruise brand "The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection" is a Miami -headquartered (Coconut Grove) new company owned by Marriott International Inc via its subsidiary The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company LLC.

On June 22, 2017, the 5-star hotel brand Ritz-Carlton announced its privately-owned cruise line brand, with a planned start in 2019. The company's fleet consists of 3 newbuilds , with a shipbuilding option to expand to 5 vessels. Ritz-Carlton's cruise company was created by Douglas Prothero (CEO, founder of Canadian Maritime Group) and Lars Clasen (Managing Director, former President of AIDA Cruises ).

On March 17, 2022, Ritz-Carlton officially announced signing the order with the French shipbuilding company Chantiers de l'Atlantique (shipyard in Sant-Nazaire ) for two LNG-powered superyachts - the sisterships Ilma (2024) and Luminara (2025).

The Ritz-Carlton deal with Chantiers de l'Atlantique was signed by Douglas Prothero (The Ritz- Carlton Yacht Collection's CEO), Tim Grisius (Marriott International's Global Officer for Mergers and Acquisitions, Business Development, Real Estate), Karim Khairallah (Oaktree Capital Management's and European Principal Group's Managing Director and Co-Portfolio Manager) and Laurent Castaing (shipbuilder's General Manager).

Initially, Ritz-Carlton planned a fleet expansion with two Evrima -like boats/sisterships, which were planned for deliveries in 2023 and 2024. The shipbuilding order for the second vessel was signed on May 31, 2019, with Hijos de J.Barreras (shipyard in Vigo Spain ) by Jose Garcia Costas (shipbuilder's President) and Douglas Prothero. However, due to the Coronavirus crisis and Barreras Shipyard's financial issues, these projects were both canceled and replaced with the bigger, France-built units.

Unlike Evrima (completed at Astander Shipyard in Santander Spain ), Ilma and Luminara are larger as both gross-tonnage/volume (46750 GT-tons, compared to Evrima's 26500 GT-tons), cabins (224 vs Evrima's 149), and max passenger capacity (456 vs Evrima's 298).

For the new superyachts' design were contracted AD Associates (London, England UK/yacht's interior design), Aivan ( Helsinki Finland /yacht's exterior design), and DPA Designers ( Miami Florida USA ).

Decks and Cabins

All Luminara cruise ship staterooms (224 total) are balcony suites with tall ceilings, and there are plenty of two-room accommodations featuring separate bedrooms. Triple and quad cabins are with convertible couches/sleeper sofas.

The boat has 10 decks , of which 8 are passenger-accessible and 5 with cabins.

Cabin categories are 9 (all suites) of which 2-room grades are Owner's, Concierge, Luminara, View, Panorama, and Grand, while Signature Suites (deluxe balcony) and Terrace Suites (standard balcony) are with a living and sleeping area.

The largest accommodations are Owner's Suites - sized 1035 ft2 (96 m2 indoor space) in addition to the huge terrace (sized 720 ft2 / 67 m2).

The ship has a total of 5x ADA cabins (for disabled passengers) which are all Terrace Suites and wheelchair-accessible.

Standard/complimentary amenities and services provided in all passenger cabins include custom-made King-size beds (non-convertible to single beds, premium sleeping system, custom-made for Ritz-Carlton linens, hypoallergenic pillows), smart HDTVs (infotainment system with Internet, movies-on-demand, Room Service ordering), seating area with contemporary furniture (mirrored dressing table, upholstered low stool, lounge cabinet with shelves, armchairs, coffee table), complimentary minibar (fully stocked to guests' preferences/upon request after boarding the ship), Espresso coffee machine (complimentary capsules /coffee and tea), direct-dial phone, alrm clock radio, wardrobe, electronic safe box and lifejackets (in the closet), 220-110 V power outlets, USB charging ports, complimentary WiFi Internet, complimentary 24-hour room service and in-cabin dining (ordering items from all onboard dining venues), dedicated butler (Personal Concierge assistant), full bathroom (double-sink vanity, separate WC toilet, two hairdryers, bathrobes and slippers, custom-made bath linens, luxury-brand bath products), individually controlled air-conditioning, LED lighting, modern light fixtures (recessed lights).

Shipboard dining options - Food and Drinks

The Luminara yacht has 6 restaurants, 5 bars/lounges, a Wine Vault, an expanded Marina (with a mezzanine), Ritz-Carlton Spa (expanded wellness complex), a space dedicated for children (by the brand's Ritz-Kids program).

On Luminara, Ritz-Carlton offers a total of 10 ultra-premium dining options at intimate venues with chef-curated menus, small seating capacity, opened around the clock, and without assigned seating or fixed mealtimes. Passengers can eat whenever they want, rather than the traditional pre-set dining times customary on most companies.

All-day and all-night dining in cabins (or on their terraces) can be ordered from the 24-hour room service menu (items from all onboard dining venues), as well as during regular hours from the MDR menu.

The dress code is "Yacht Casual" during the day for breakfast and lunch - shoes, shirts, and bathing suit cover-ups are required when the passengers are not at the swimming pool. In the evenings, sleeveless t-shirts and bathing suits are not allowed, and shoes and shirts are required throughout the vessel. The dress code in the specialty dining restaurant by Sven Elverfeld is "Yacht Sophisticated" - collared shirts are not required, but recommended. No formal nights are organized on board.

Follows the complete list of Ritz-Carlton Luminara restaurants and food bars.

During each voyage, local guests (artists, lecturers, chefs) board the ship for various entertainment acts throughout the cruise. The shipwide Wi-Fi is free of charge.

The main onboard social hubs are The Observation Terrace/Lounge (top-deck) and The Living Room (ship entrance hall / Atrium Lobby lounge, also doubling as Cafe and Library). The ship doesn't have a dedicated Theater (show lounge) or Casino (gambling lounge).

A selection of water toys (sea kayaks, paddleboards, snorkeling equipment) is provided complimentary to all passengers. The marina is connected to the indoors, forming an indoor-outdoor solarium (sundeck) looking more like a cozy lounge than the usual sundeck.

Due to fire and safety regulations, most of the ship's spaces are sectioned off and subdivided, with metal walls dividing restaurants from lounges and bars. Ritz-Carlton ships pioneered an open floorplan concept ("fluid and transparent") designed to "break down the traditional boundaries between dining and drinking areas".

Ritz-Carlton Luminara Wiki

The Luminara vessel (STX France shipyard/hull number K35) was ordered by the Miami-based company Cruise Yacht OpCo Ltd, and is currently scheduled for delivery in June 2025.

Unlike the Spain-built Evrima , Ritz-Carlton's sisterships Luminara and Ilma are France-built - by Chantiers de l'Atlantique SA in Saint-Nazaire .

The yacht Luminara is powered by four Wartisla marine diesel engines (dual-fuel, models 2x 14V31DF + 2x 16V31DF) with total power output 34,8 MW (46670 hp). The diesel-electric propulsion is a PEM fuel-cell-battery hybrid (power output 19,4 MW / 26015 hp), with common rail fuel injection, providing better fuel efficiency at various speeds.

The vessel's construction started with the steel-cutting ceremony held on June 6, 2023, at STX France. The special event was attended by Ernesto Fara (Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection's President and CFO), Jim Murren (Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection's CEO and Executive Chairman), Laurent Castaing (the shipyard's General Manager) and Arnaud Le Joncour (STX France's Senior VP of Sales and Marketing.

Luminara's physical construction/assembly started with the keel-laying ceremony held on March 6, 2024. The special event was attended by Jim Murren and Arnaud Le Joncour (shipbuilder's Senior VP of Sales and Marketing).

Ritz-Carlton ship technology

The superyacht Luminara is LNG-powered and with electric propulsion system consisting of two Azipods (by ABB) with total power output 19,4 MW (26015 hp). Azipod-D are 360-degree rotating/azimuthing thrusters ideal for smaller-sized vessels as they require lower installed power. Unit's electric drive motor is installed in the pod and submerged outside the hull, thus allowing more space for passenger cabins. The patented Azipod system also produces less vibration. The thrusters have the ability to turn 360 degrees which increases the ship's maneuverability and allows access to ports without the need for tugboat assistance.

The Azipods are part of ABB's medium voltage power plant. It also includes sensors producing real-time data that can be tracked from land-based facilities operated by both ABB Operations Centers and the customer. The Azipod thruster is approx 10% more fuel-efficient in comparison to shaft line propulsion systems. This results in a significant reduction of the vessel's operating costs and emissions. The lack of traditional rudders also allows the hull's hydrodynamics to be optimized.

"ABB Ability" is a remote diagnostic system using Microsoft Azure (cloud computing). It monitors the vessel's electrical systems and is connected 24-7 to ABB's infrastructure ashore. The system monitors all linked devices and sends real-time data analytics for maintenance (predictive and planned) and online support.

In late-September 2018, ABB contracted Raytheon Anschutz (Singapore-based manufacturer) to provide the ship's Integrated Navigation System "Synapsis NX" (bridge and navigation equipment). Synapsis NX includes autopilot, track control, radars, navigation sensors, communications, multifunctional navigation workstations (with software).

The first Ritz-Carlton yacht ( Evrima ) had an initial building cost / as ordered EUR 190 million (USD 225 million). During the vessel's construction, due to design changes, the cost reached EUR 240 million (USD 260 million) and the delivery was rescheduled from November to December 2019. In August 2019, the Spanish shipbuilder (Astilleros Barreras/ Vigo ) demanded an additional EUR 50 million (USD 55 million) to finish Evrima.

Ritz-Carlton's 3-ship-fleet project's equity investor is Oaktree Capital Management ( Los Angeles USA -based global investment management firm). The shipbuilding order was supported by CESCE Espana ( Madrid Spain -based commercial risk management company/world's 4th-largest, also ECA-Export Credit Agency) and CaixaBank SA (fka Criteria CaixaCorp - one of Spain's largest banks).

The deal with CESCE covered the Evrima yacht's cost overruns, secured the construction of Ritz-Carlton's second vessel, and also saved the Astilleros Barreras shipyard from bankruptcy.

In April 2022, the French shipbuilder contracted ABB to supply both yachts' (Luminara and Ilma) electric propulsion systems and year-round predictive maintenance and remote support of the machinery. The ordered packages included two Azipod units (power output 5,5 MW each) allowing high maneuverability (in both ports and at sea) as well as low vibrations and minimal noise during navigation.

In June 2022, the shipbuilder contracted ALMACO Group (turnkey manufacturer serving the marine and offshore industries) to design, produce, deliver, install and fully equip the ship's galleys/kitchens (1200 m2 / 12917 ft2), provision storage areas (525 m2 / 5652 ft2), laundry areas, and the refrigeration system/machinery. Ritz-Carlton contracted ALMACO for lifecycle services consisting of scheduled maintenance and spare parts supply.

In August 2022, the shipbuilder contracted BIO-UV Group (French manufacturer specializing in water treatment solutions based on ozone, advanced oxidation and ultraviolet light) to provide the sisterships Ilma and Luminara with ballast water treatment systems. The system (BIO-SEA/series B02-190) combines mechanical filtration with high dose of ultraviolet light for disinfection without chemical treatments. BIO-UV Group's equipment has max water treatment capacity 190m3/h and is based on 2x UV reactors. All cruise vessels constructed by Chantiers de l'Atlantique since 2015 are fitted with BIO-UV's BIO-SEA systems.

The Luminara ship was launched/floated out from drydock on September 10, 2024. Jim Murren (Ritz-Carlton) and Arnaud Le Joncour (STX France) attended the ceremony. After the launch, the vessel was berthed to a service dock for interior outfitting.

Cruise Yacht Opco to Relocate From Miami to Fort Lauderdale

JLL Managing Directors Doug Okun and Steven Hurwitz represented the landlord, Zurich Alternative Asset Management, in the lease negations. Keith Edelman, Scott Goldstein and Zach Wendelin of  CBRE  represented the tenant Cruise Yacht Opco. 

“Fort Lauderdale’s NoBro district is quickly becoming one of South Florida’s most exciting and sought-after destinations,” Okun says. “The urban offerings and multiple transit options have created a live, work, play lifestyle that is attracting companies of all sizes and across all industries.”

Located near Flagler Village and within minutes of the Brightline private rail train station, Plaza 100 offers upscale amenities, steps away from the city’s trendy entertainment and dining options. The building features a newly renovated plaza, common areas, conference center, on-site management and banking. Current tenants at Plaza 100 include U.S. Legal, Oppenheimer, Katz Barron and Mombach, Boyle, Hardin and Simmons, P.A.

According to JLL’s Q1 Office Report for Broward County, the Fort Lauderdale office market continues to produce positive gains due to more competitive rental rates than Miami-Dade and Palm Beach and its central location in South Florida. 

The company plans to open its third Palm Beach banking center and regional office set to open in 2025.

It is one of the largest gatherings of military equipment in the country.

17 of the 35 participating students received Best Delegate Awards in their respective committees, while 23 earned individual accolades. 

The host committee is also enlisting the support of a historic alliance of South Florida leaders.

The Lotus Blossom Ball event will be held on April 27.

American Heritage Schools achieved yet another remarkable victory at the Palm Beach Regional Science and Engineering Fair held at Safe Schools Institute in Boca Raton. For two years, 15 of the 30 high

The event is held in over 90 cities in the U.S.

The event honored Global Recycling Day on March 18.

THROW OFF THE LINES AND STEP ABOARD.

The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection onboard features have been expertly designed to enlighten, enliven, and excite. Like the slower pace lifestyle of a superyacht, life on board is laid back and casual, with a sense of freedom and flexibility. Spaces are designed to embrace the natural surroundings, with walls of glass that flow seamlessly toward the sea and elegant yet comfortable décor. And thanks to a spectacular space ratio of more than 89 square feet per guest, there’s room to accommodate the luxuries of a boutique resort, including a full-service spa and a generous collection of aquatic recreational activities. Evenings can be enjoyed with cocktails and live music in the Living Room or late-night dancing in the Observation Lounge. A local celebrity may be on board for a specially curated performance. Or some may prefer to head for a club in town to take in the local scene. 

Immerse yourself in a life untethered aboard The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection’s  luxury all-inclusive cruises . Discover standout luxury yacht features including a lounge, marina-style water sports, and the world-famous Ritz-Carlton onboard spa. Relax, unwind, and unplug among luxury cruise features that beckon guests to live elevated and unencumbered.  

MARINA AND MARINA TERRACE

Sitting right at the water’s edge, the Marina offers sun loungers and a generous choice of water toys. Like a private beach with seamless entry into the sea, it’s the go-to spot while at anchor. Just steps above, the Marina Terrace serves handcrafted cocktails and light bites with stunning views. 

THE RITZ-CARLTON SPA®

Exceptional massages, facials, and a variety of locally inspired treatments await you within our serene onboard oasis. Enjoy a rejuvenating spa treatment in one of five private rooms, or al fresco, paired with ocean views. Plus, a full-service Beauty Lounge, Gentleman’s Grooming Salon, as well as a sauna, steam room and quiet zones allow you to truly disconnect. Reservations required, additional fee applies.

An infinity oasis of blue is just steps away from The Pool House, where guests can enjoy all-day dining. Frozen treats, whirlpools to soak in, and refreshing water mistings pamper guests on the sun loungers and banquettes. A spacious venue for deck parties and open-air movies. 

THE FITNESS STUDIO

The Fitness Studio is home to a health and wellness program that integrates fitness and spa with lectures and nutrition that can be customized for each guest. From personal training to sunrise yoga and mat Pilates, each voyage has opportunities to maintain a healthy lifestyle.

THE LIVING ROOM

Bold shades of blue reflecting the sea provide a vibrant accent to the yacht’s gathering place, with its chic, comfortable furnishings and library with travel guides and best sellers. Diffused lighting transforms the space into a cocktail lounge with piano bar, dancing and live music later on, making The Living Room one of the most popular Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection onboard features.

THE BOUTIQUE

From exclusive sportswear and branded apparel to jewelry and leather goods, leading labels offer enticing options. In select ports, your shopping experience is further enhanced by bespoke collaborations with local artisans who come on board to showcase their offerings.

Entertainment and Enrichment

Like the yacht itself, entertainment and enrichment onboard are an intimate affair. Our in-house classical and jazz musicians will provide highly personal performances across the many venues onboard throughout each voyage. The yacht's leisurely pace offers the freedom and flexibility for our team to arrange fully immersive cultural experiences both onboard and ashore. From partnerships with the local arts and music communities to discussions led by renowned experts and lecturers, each experience is designed to stir the senses in an uncommonly profound way. Our commitment to immersive and enriching entertainment offerings sets our luxury cruise features apart from others.  

THE OBSERVATION LOUNGE

Top-deck views erase the borders between land and sea, an inspired setting for lounging, cocktails or socializing. At twilight, the space is transformed into a venue with cocktails and live entertainment, extending into a late-night hangout. Whether exploring on luxury repositioning cruises, luxury Baltic cruises, US-based cruises, or anything in between, The Observation Lounge is your vantage point for sightseeing anywhere at sea. 

ONBOARD DRESS CODE

The dress code on board the yacht reflects the luxury lifestyle of The Ritz-Carlton and casual freedom of a yachting vacation. During the day for breakfast and lunch, the dress code is Yacht Casual, wherein shirts, shoes, and bathing suit cover-ups are required when not at the pool. During the evening, for dinner, bathing suits and sleeveless t-shirts are not permitted, and shirts and shoes are required throughout the yacht. When dining in The Evrima Room, Talaat Nam and S.E.A. the dress code is Yacht Sophisticated — meaning collared shirts are not required, but highly recommended. Ball caps, hats, shorts, and flip-flops are not permitted during dinner service. There are no formal nights on board.

THE HUMIDOR

Cap off your day with a premium cognac in this intimate lounge with its comfortable furnishings. An excellent selection of premium hand-rolled cigars is showcased in the state-of-the-art humidor.

Families exploring the world together are welcome aboard The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection. With its own dedicated space on board, Ritz Kids® is an educational and fun-filled program that encourages children to explore the world around them. Enhanced services will be available during holidays and summer months.
