While Ritz-Carlton is known primarily for its luxury hotels, the brand recently expanded into the cruising industry, with the debut of Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection. This offers one of the most luxurious cruise experiences at sea, and the cruise line even participates in Marriott Bonvoy.
If you are considering booking one of these cruises, I’d highly recommend doing so through an eligible travel advisor — you won’t pay extra, and you’ll receive more perks.

Book Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection with extra benefits
Marriott STARS is a program for travel advisors, offering perks like breakfast, room upgrades, and property credits, when staying at Marriott’s luxury brands (including Ritz-Carlton). These are benefits that select luxury travel advisor can share with their clients when booking through them.
The good news is that Marriott STARS agents can also add extra benefits with Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection. When booking through an eligible travel advisor, you’ll pay the same rate you’d receive when booking directly. In addition to receiving personalized service, Marriott STARS travel advisors can add an extra amenity.
Specifically, when booking through a Marriott STARS travel advisor, you’ll receive a complimentary dinner for two at S.E.A., the ship’s specialty restaurant. This is the only restaurant onboard that costs extra, and ordinarily this retails for $250+ per person, so that’s quite a value-add. So for two people, this is a $500+ value.
On top of that, in the event that the premium suites aren’t all sold out leading up to the sailing, clients of Marriott STARS agents will be the first to be offered discounted upgrades, so that could be a great opportunity as well.

How much do Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection cruises cost?
How expensive are Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection cruises?
Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection’s pricing varies considerably, depending on the type of journey you’re booking. Pricing is generally per person based on double occupancy. Note that if you’re traveling alone, you’ll have to pay 200% of the fare, meaning you’ll be paying double if traveling alone.
Just to give a general pricing range based on what’s currently for sale, one of the cheaper cruises is an 11-night transatlantic crossing that starts at $6,900 per person (~$630 per person per day), while one of the more expensive cruises is a peak summer seven-day Mediterranean cruise, which starts at $11,400 per person (~$1,630 per person per day).
Bottom line
Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection is Ritz-Carlton’s entry into the cruising world. There’s currently one ship, and soon there will be two additional ships, meaning capacity is being expanded significantly.
If you want to get the best deal with Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection, you’ll want to book through a travel advisor affiliated with Marriott STARS. They can not only make the booking process easier, but can add extra benefits, all while you don’t pay anything extra.
