Chartering a superyacht is one of life’s ultimate pleasures. Inviting your family or best friends to explore the world’s most alluring destinations, such as the South Pacific or Antarctica , aboard a private crewed yacht will create memories that last a lifetime. A luxury yacht offers privacy, exclusivity, and world-class service and amenities that cannot be matched.

For larger groups wishing to enjoy the delights of a yacht charter, you will need a yacht with four staterooms, which can sleep six to eight guests. A four-cabin or stateroom charter boat is ideal for a family or a group of friends seeking a stylish getaway guaranteed to exceed all expectations.

Sorry, there were no results found for your search.

Layout of a Yacht with Four Staterooms

A four-cabin superyacht will typically have a master cabin, possibly a VIP, and two other cabins for guests or children. The precise configuration will depend on the charter vessel but will likely include a mix of king or queen beds, twin beds, and on some yachts, Pullman beds. Of course, you’ll also enjoy all the amenities a yacht charter offers, including luxury interiors, world-class onboard amenities, and a dedicated crew ready to cater to your every need.

The crew will comprise a captain, stews and stewardesses, deckhands and watersports operators, a private chef, and possibly a masseuse or personal trainer.

Four cabin charter yachts are typically around 80-200ft (25-55m) and will cost upwards of US$80,000 per week.

UTOPIA IV Specifications

Rossinavi UTOPIA IV Yacht For Sale

Delivered in 2018 by the Rossinavi shipyard, the UTOPIA IV yacht is a harmonious balance of luxurious superyacht and high-performance sport yacht. Fitted with four MTU 16V 2000 M96L engines that provide power to four Rolls Royce hydro jets, motor yacht UTOPIA IV effortlessly glides through the water with a cruising speed of 20 knots while achieving impressive top speeds. Considering her size, this performance is quite remarkable.

With an exterior featuring coupe-like design cues of long handsome lines coupled with a slender silhouette characteristic of Rossinavi yachts, her interior is sleek and wide and can sleep 12 guests across six spacious suites. The tastefully appointed interior blends minimalism with sophisticated European taste sourced from haute couture brands Hermes and Armani. The forward-facing owner’s suite has a commanding view provided by floor-to-ceiling windows and features a grand bathroom with a double shower and jacuzzi. The master suite of this 63-meter Rossinavi superyacht also contains a sitting room, office, and private balcony.

A notable feature of the UTOPIA IV yacht is her impressive stern beach club. The transom folds down to add 754 square feet of swim platform to the bar and relaxation area inside the vessel. Light filters down above the bar from the ceiling through the glass-bottom pool on the main deck above.

In 2019, the Rossinavi UTOPIA IV yacht was the winner of the World Superyachts Award “2019 Semi-Displacement or Planing Motor Yachts – 40m and above” and the winner of the International Superyacht Society Awards of “2019 Best Power 40m – 65m.”

UTOPIA IV underwent a major refit in 2022 which included a full paint job, completion of her 5-year survey, and service of all major machinery including engines, jet drives, and generators. She represents an incredible opportunity to own a world-class, late-model Rossinavi pedigree sport yacht without waiting several years for the delivery of a new vessel. The UTOPIA IV yacht is U.S. duty paid and viewings can be arranged by qualified clients by appointment.

Four Seasons Is Launching a Luxury Yacht in 2025, and It’s as Glamorous as You’d Expect

All products featured on Condé Nast Traveler are independently selected by our editors. However, when you buy something through our retail links, we may earn an affiliate commission.

The arrival of a new Four Seasons will always resound farther than its new neighborhood and this latest addition is no different—except now the whispers extend to the seas.

Four Seasons is taking its award-winning service to the ocean with the launch of Four Seasons Yachts , “appealing to discerning guests looking to reimagine their love of travel by experiencing the splendor of modern sea voyaging," according to a statement. Anticipated to set sail in late 2025, bespoke voyages will carve through the sea to some of the world’s most breathtaking destinations. The vessel will be led and staffed by a dedicated team, with staff outnumbering guests.

A rendering of what the Four Seasons yacht will be.

The first of a fleet of Four Seasons yachts, currently being built in Trieste, Italy , will span 14 decks and include 95 suites. True to Four Seasons fashion, the boat is as polished as they come—each custom-designed suite costs over 4 million to build. With “ultimate privacy, flexibility and spaciousness” in mind, the adaptable joining combinations seamlessly integrated into each suite will create villa-like estates in a nautical residential setting. The floor-to-ceiling windows in each room are all about those unobstructed riviera views, while the generous indoor-outdoor space—by way of an expansive private terrace deck—is the spot for sundowners. Accommodation will start at an average of 581 square feet with the roomiest—a four-level suite named the “Funnel”—offering more than 9,601 square feet and completed with a private splash pool and spa area.

Restaurants, lounges, and bars have been carefully considered, from expertly made coffee to meticulously plated sushi or a glass of Champagne on deck. The yacht will be equipped with a full-service spa, salon, and wellness program, the pool can transform into an outdoor movie theater or event space, and the transverse marina will also make the perfect spot to soak in the sun or dive into the warm waters.

Placing sustainability at its forefront, the vessel will use green energy fuels, zero-emission energy sources, and air emissions far better than international standards. There are further plans to integrate more state-of-the-art green technologies down the line.

Along with Four Seasons, there are a few notable masterminds behind the exciting new venture. World-leading shipbuilding group, Fincantieri, will bring its groundbreaking engineering and technology to craft the finest vessels for Four Seasons Yachts with industry expert Larry Pimentel, and luxury entrepreneurs Nadim Ashi and Philip Levine also heading the project. Lead architects Tillberg Design of Sweden and London-based Martin Brudnizki Design Studio (who’s worked with fly-high places such as Annabel’s and many of London’s best restaurants ) will oversee the exteriors and suite designs, with creative direction from Prosper Assouline.

Since Four Seasons Yachts is still far from its maiden voyage, details on itineraries are still yet to be confirmed but rumors of sun-soaked journeys through the Mediterranean and Caribbean are on the horizon. Costs will vary by individual itineraries and will only be announced once reservations open in the third quarter of 2023.

This isn’t the first time the Toronto-based luxury hospitality group has dipped its toes in the water, having launched Four Seasons Explorer cruises many years ago, and with 124 hotels and resorts already in the portfolio, the new venture “represents the next chapter of its long history of industry-leading innovation, and a milestone moment for the company” says Christian Clerc, President of Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts.

A version of this article originally appeared on Condé Nast Traveller U.K.

T&C First Look: The Four Seasons Yacht

It sets sail in 2025. There is already a waitlist.

Rather than taking account of the many hospitality brands now getting into maritime luxury , it might just be easier to list those who are not. From the Ritz-Carlton to Aman, RH to Orient Express, all have either already launched tricked out branded boats, or have announced plans to do so in the next few years. The Med is going to be quite crowded come summer 2026.

Last year at the Monaco Yacht Show, Four Seasons announced it was getting into the game. In partnership with luxury yachting company Marc-Henry Cruise Holdings Ltd. and Italian shipbuilder Fincantieri, it's building a 679-foot vessel that will have 95 suites (each equipped with a terrace), one of the largest pools at sea, custom sea limousines for coastal tours, and 11 food and beverage options. A second yacht is also in the works.

The boat's real pièce de résistance is the Funnel Suite, a 4-level, 9,500-square-foot penthouse on the water with a 5,000-square-foot terrace, a private spa and pool, and 280-degree views afforded by one giant slab of curved glass that cost $4.5 million.

When she sets sail on her maiden voyage in late 2025, the Four Seasons Yacht will do as any seafaring tycoon does and cruise the Caribbean in the winters and the Mediterranean in the summers. The brand also has the advantage of a sprawling network of hotels—126 properties in 47 countries—sprinkled throughout glitzy ports of call like the French Riviera, Taormina, Athens, and Anguilla.

As for how to book? Due to high demand, priority reservation access for the inaugural voyage will be given to loyal Four Seasons clients and travel partners. If that's you, expect an invitation in the mail. For everyone else, best of luck with that waitlist .

Four Seasons is building a fleet of luxury yachts that will debut in 2025

What's the latest way for high-end hotel brands to expand their reach? Apparently, it's launching a fleet of luxury yachts to rival the upscale cruise lines for intimate experiences, fine dining, elegant accommodations and personalized service.

Ritz-Carlton plans to debut its first yacht this fall, and on Wednesday, Sept. 28, Four Seasons announced its newest project, Four Seasons Yachts, which is expected to deliver its first vessel by the end of 2025.

"Four Seasons Yachts represents the next chapter of our long history of industry-leading innovation, and a milestone moment for our company as we continue to capitalize on new opportunities to extend the world of Four Seasons," said Christian Clerc, president of Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts, in a company statement.

This isn't the first time the brand has expanded beyond hotels. It already offers the Four Seasons Private Jet Experience , as well as a yacht that offers three- to seven-night cruises from and between the brand's two properties in the Maldives.

Partners on board

Four Seasons is collaborating with established cruise industry partners to give this new venture every chance for success.

The ships will be designed by Tillberg Design of Sweden (responsible for the ultra-lavish Regent Suite on Seven Seas Splendor) and Martin Brudnizki Design Studio.

They will be built by established Italian shipbuilders Fincantieri, operated by Marc-Henry Cruise Holdings (co-led by luxury entrepreneurs Nadim Ashi and Philip Levine) and helmed by Larry Pimentel (a veteran in the luxury cruise marketplace who has led such lines as Azamara, Seabourn and SeaDream Yacht Club).

Yacht details

The first ship, currently dubbed Four Seasons Yacht, will debut at the end of 2025, and Four Seasons has options for two more vessels.

The 14-deck yacht will feature 95 suites that can be combined into expansive indoor-outdoor living spaces. While accommodations start at 581 square feet, more than half the suites will offer 818 square feet or more of combined indoor and outdoor living space.

The showstopper will be the Funnel Suite, a four-level, 9,601-square-foot suite with a private pool and spa that could give Regent Seven Seas Cruises' Regent Suite (voted the most spectacular suite by TPG) a run for its money.

Other luxurious touches will include a 1 to 1 guest-to-staff ratio; a spa and salon, complete with wellness programming; a large pool deck that can double as a special event space and alfresco movie theater; and bars and restaurants that will stay true to Four Seasons' history of culinary innovation.

The yacht will also boast what Four Seasons calls an "industry-first transverse marina," running port to starboard, where passengers can enjoy water sports and toys or sunbathe from the ship.

"We are creating something extraordinary that combines their expertise with what Four Seasons does best — delivering unmatched quality and excellence, surrounded by beautiful acts of service and love for our guests," said Clerc.

Ritz-Carlton yacht updates

Yachting and hotel fans are likely wondering how the new Four Seasons Yacht will compare to the much-anticipated Evrima, the first yacht on offer from the Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection .

That company has also partnered with Tillberg Design to imagine its suites, but the smallest start at 367 square feet (including interior and balcony space) and the largest caps out at 1,091 square feet with a 635-square-foot balcony. Evrima will carry 298 passengers, compared with Four Seasons' 190 guests. It will also have a full-service spa and fitness center and an aft marina for complimentary water activities.

Unlike Four Seasons, which has partnered with renowned shipyard Fincantieri to build the ship, Ritz-Carlton initially contracted with Hijos de J. Barreras, a shipyard in Vigo, Spain, not known for building cruise ships. Due to problems with that facility and increasing delays, the yacht was moved to the Astander shipyard, also in Spain, for completion.

Evrima's next two sister ships will be built by Chantiers de l'Atlantique in St. Nazaire, France, a shipyard with experience building cruise ships. Evrima is currently 33 months behind schedule .

Expect Four Seasons to reveal more details of its new project in the coming months as design plans are finished and building begins. The brand seems confident that its foray into yachting will turn heads and change the industry.

"We are creating a new category of luxury lifestyle travel that appeals to discerning guests. We are bringing together the very best across industries to create the pinnacle yachting offering through world-class design, curated experiences and truly exceptional service," said Pimentel. "When we launch in 2025, there will be nothing else like it on the open seas."

Perpetual motion

R4 XT is the natural evolution of our R4 yacht that changes the yachting game once again, with new customization options and even more room on board. The brand-new R4 XT evolves the concept of the extensible stern through a new custom beach area, designed by yacht designer Valerio Rivellini and developed by Besenzoni exclusively for Blu Emme Yachts. The beach area of the R4 XT can expand its width up to 2m and increase its length up to 1m full beam, bringing your yachting experience to a whole new level.

Always a step ahead

The brand new beach area is a tender lift transformer never seen before on a 40ft yacht, that creates a longer and extremely practical leisure space.

There are 3 main options for the lift stern platform:

• - Lifted , for easier and safer boarding and disembarking operations
• - Under the water line , to support tender hauling and for a relaxing bathing experience
• - At water line , to provide a longer and larger beach area for you and your guests

More space to share

The new beach area is so large and open to customizations that it will go beyond your every imagination. It’s a social space that you can share and enjoy in many different ways.

Sun or shade

The beach area can be equipped with a large and comfortable sofa island, featuring a 4-place sunbed with tall headrests, serving as a backrest for the dinette sofa. Custom shade areas can be created with canopies and a T-top.

From lunchtime to nighttime

The sliding multifunctional dinette at the stern will be the ideal place to spend long summer nights at their fullest.

Luxury and comfort

Cozy cushioning and driving seats are created by Besenzoni, a master in luxury yacht accessories, all specifically designed for a great yachting experience, both at sea and at anchor.

Expand the horizon

The beach area of the R4 XT can expand its width up to 2m and increase its length up to 1m full beam, bringing your yachting experience to a whole new level.

Advanced interiors

Below deck there’s a whole new range of custom options and convertible spaces. Everything aboard the R4 XT yacht holds a new customization possibility, exclusively tailored to your needs. The dining and relax areas at the bow are equipped with sofas and a large dinette that can be easily converted into a double berth or a pleasant open space.

Perfectly unique

The R4 XT yacht features two main options: the sports and leisure-oriented classic version and the walkaround version, for a more comfortable upper deck experience.

Different versions, same power

Both versions are equipped with Volvo Penta IPS 650 353 hp engines.
