The luxury cruise product will be familiar to brand loyalists while departing from the segment’s usual all-inclusive fare structure. Here’s a compilation of what clients can expect onboard.

Four Seasons I: An Unorthodox Luxury Cruise Format
Unlike other luxury cruise lines, Four Seasons Yachts will not be all-inclusive. Fares will not include meals, room service, alcoholic beverages, spa treatments, shore excursions nor laundry service.
Champagne & Caviar doles out views, too.

The value proposition will also take a different path regarding published fares. Prices will not be listed per person but rather per suite, and suites will accommodate up to seven guests. What’s more, Suites with Studios — separate bonus cabins for personal staff or other family members — will be bundled into the total price of the main suite.
Dining Venues Onboard Four Seasons I
The onboard culinary experience will include 11 onboard dining and drinking venues, according to the line.
Miuna is an omakase restaurant that can only accommodate 16 cruisers at a time.

The main trio of restaurants on Four Seasons I will be Sedna, Terrasse and Miuna. The emerald green-adorned Sedna will showcase “rotating master chefs-in-residence;” when not highlighting talent from Four Seasons’ international restaurants, a modern French menu will be available for lunch and dinner. A private room will also be on hand to host up to 10 guests.

Light and seasonal dishes will be made with locally sourced ingredients and will often feature seafood. An open kitchen and live culinary stations will engage guests.
Guests can also opt to dine at intimate sushi restaurant Miuna, which will offer an omakase experience accommodating only 16 guests at a time during lunch and dinner.
At Pistachio, a cafe situated next to the lobby, guests can enjoy a light breakfast and sweet treats such as croissants, petite gateaux, gelato and more. Artisanal coffee and teas will also percolate here.

The venue dubbed Champagne & Caviar will serve its namesake indulgences, and the adults-only Horizon Lounge will act as a Moroccan-inspired retreat with a central plunge pool and a menu of Levantine dishes.
The Marina Bar will service guests participating in watersports activities (it will boast sun loungers, dining tables and light bites) and Bar O will take its design cues from 1960s jet-set Europe. The Cigar Lounge will welcome cigar aficionados.
Rounding out onboard dining options will be 24-hour-a-day room service in suites.
Enhanced Marina
Unlike the more common singular aft-positioned marina on most yachts, Four Seasons I will feature a transverse marina off both sides of the vessel. The two retractable sea-level platforms will extend from the interior bar and lounge — altogether spanning 7,275 square feet of space — and support "Marina Days" in destinations such as Mayreau and Soufriere Bay in the Caribbean, and the Gulf of Squillace and Monte Argentario in the Mediterranean.
Features will include a sea pool, lounge chairs and a watersports dock. Available activities and offerings will further extend to on-deck yoga, electric hydrofoils, water bikes, post-workout smoothies, meditation sessions and social gatherings, as well as kayaks, inflatable waterboards and pedalboards. A special Limo Tender and Beachlander will also be on hand for optional adventures from the yacht.
