Four Seasons Yachts to build a third cruise ship

Luxury cruise yacht company Marc-Henry Cruise Holdings, joint owner and operator of Four Seasons Yachts has signed a newbuilding contract at Italy-based shipyard Fincantieri.

The deal green-lights construction of a third vessel in the Four Seasons Yachts fleet at a price tag of between US$500-US$1Bn, according to shipbuilder Fincantieri.

"The new vessel will be the third unit in a new class of ultra-luxury hospitality vessels designed and built by Fincantieri at its Ancona shipyard," Fincantieri said, noting it builds on the delivery earlier this year of Four Seasons I - the inaugural vessel conceived under Fincantieri’s Navis Sapiens vision - and the construction of a second ship, Four Seasons II scheduled to enter into service at the beginning of 2028.

The second Four Seasons Yachts’ vessel will be delivered in 2027 with sailings planned for 2028. The pricetag for the 208-m vessel was more than €400M (US$450M)

The first vessel in the planned Four Seasons Yachts fleet, Four Seasons l, completed its sea trials in December 2025 and set sail for its inaugural year in 2026. 

In June 2026, Marc-Henry Cruise Holdings revealed some design renderings and details about its second ultra-luxury vessel.

In releasing some early imagery and information on its second cruise vessel, Four Seasons said the vessel will have a total of 79 suites, including a new collection of Yacht Residential Suites.

"Designed for those seeking the ultimate in space, privacy, and flexibility, these generously proportioned suites offer a truly residential-scale experience at sea, complete with open-concept living, private terraces, and bespoke service tailored to each guest," the line said.

Ranging from two- to four- bedrooms and positioned across the ship’s upper decks, the Yacht Residential Suites include integrated "lifestyle kitchens", dining spaces, dedicated entertainment areas, and, in select suites, private splash pools and outdoor showers. Passengers staying in the suites also have a dedicated concierge.

Fincantieri said the latest ship for Four Seasons will feature the same all-suite, residential-style concept.

"At 207 meters in length and approximately 34,000 gross tons, it will accommodate suites designed to maximize the connection between guests and the ocean through expansive terraces and open-air living spaces," the shipbuilder said.
