Luminara, the latest addition to the ultra-luxury fleet, opens new horizons with inaugural sailings to Asia-Pacific and Alaska, redefining yacht-style cruising
June 26, 2025 – The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection, a Mohari Hospitality investment, has officially launched Luminara, the newest superyacht in its fleet, set to embark on its maiden voyage in July 2025. Expanding the boundaries of ultra-luxury cruising, Luminara will introduce itineraries to the Asia-Pacific region in December 2025 and Alaska in May 2026, marking The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection’s first ventures into these culturally rich and visually stunning destinations, unlocking unparalleled opportunities for discovery and connection.
The launch of Luminara represents a significant milestone for The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection, which debuted Evrima in 2022 and Ilma in 2024. Together, these luxurious vessels represent the pinnacle of cruising and have redefined luxury travel across the Mediterranean, Northern Europe, the Caribbean, Asia and North America. Luminara exemplifies sophistication, innovation and a spirit of discovery and reflects the shared vision of Mohari Hospitality and The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection to create unparalleled guest experiences that inspire exploration and connection. With Luminara, Mohari Hospitality proudly continues investing in the future of luxury travel at sea.
The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection continues to elevate the art of luxury cruising. Supported by funds managed by Oaktree and with Mohari Hospitality as a minority investor, the collection combines The Ritz-Carlton’s legendary service with the intimacy and elegance of yachting.
Luminara, inspired by the Latin word for “light,” is a 794-foot (242-meter) superyacht designed to illuminate the ultra-luxury yachting experience. Hosting up to 452 guests in 226 distinguished suites, each with private terraces and ocean views, it boasts world-class dining, a Ritz-Carlton Spa® and a marina for watersports and sea access.
More than a yacht, Luminara is a gateway to iconic cities, secluded retreats and hidden gems, with a focus on the Asia-Pacific region and Alaska. These exclusive itineraries invite guests to explore breathtaking destinations in unparalleled sophistication.
