Yachting Lifestyle
Far removed from the traditional cruise experience, The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection brings the refined comfort and intuitive service of its renowned hotels to sea, pairing five-star hospitality with the relaxed freedom of yachting. Luminara, the newest addition to the fleet, continues this vision, offering direct ocean access from the marina, water toys on days at anchor and leisurely afternoons on deck as the coastline drifts by. Onboard, the atmosphere is sophisticated yet refreshingly informal, with elegant resort wear in place of rigid formal dress codes. The result is a more intimate, effortless way to explore the world by yacht.
Destinations
From the glacier-carved fjords of Alaska to the vibrant shores of Asia, spanning Japan, Southeast Asia, the Philippines, the South Pacific, and Hong Kong, Luminara explores these extraordinary destinations with the freedom and intimacy of yacht travel. Her smaller scale allows access to remote wilderness, hidden harbors and lesser-visited ports, bringing you closer to each destination.
