My Honest Four Seasons Yacht Cruise Experience: Amazing Ship & Crew, But Not Frictionless
One Mile at a Time • • business
Key Points:
- Four Seasons Yachts has launched its first ship, Four Seasons 1, positioning it as a luxury resort at sea targeting non-cruisers, with a unique pricing model where most food and drinks are not included, unlike typical cruises.
- The ship impresses with its stunning design, spacious suites, and high-end facilities that rival land-based luxury hotels, offering guests an exceptionally spacious and elegant environment.
- Food quality on board is mixed, with standout fine dining at Sedna and good cocktails at Bar O, but some casual dining options like Terrasse had notable inconsistencies, including poorly prepared dishes.
- Staff are universally described as kind and passionate, contributing to a warm atmosphere, but service delivery suffers from numerous small issues and inconsistencies, detracting from the otherwise high-end experience.
- Despite service shortcomings and high costs (starting around $35,000 for a week), most guests, including the reviewer, enjoyed their time and expressed willingness to cruise again, indicating strong overall appeal amid ongoing operational improvements.
