The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection Brings Michelin-Inspired Dining to the High Seas
There is much to admire about The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection's fleet of three superyachts, like their elegant designs, legendary service, and easy access to some of the world's most sought-after destinations. Amidst the luxuries large and small is the backbone of any voyage worth taking: an exquisite culinary program.
A slate of impressive dining concepts spans Evrima, Ilma, and Luminara, the latter launching in July 2025. Each venue emulates the laid-back luxury of the yachting lifestyle, with dishes inspired by the regions visited and ingredients sourced from local purveyors. Upon arrival, guests are encouraged to meet with a maitre d' to plan out their meals for the duration of the voyage. There are no buffets and no lines—mealtimes are always experiences to be savored.
To further elevate the epicurean experience, The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection enlisted a trio of world-renowned chefs to curate exclusive on-board culinary concepts. Here is a behind-the-scenes look at each, including insights and inspiration from the award-winning chefs behind them.
