Portside marina platform
Four Seasons Yachts has released further information about the marina experience aboard Four Seasons I, the first vessel in its new yacht collection, which is scheduled to debut in 2026.
A key feature of the vessel will be a transverse marina offering direct access to the sea, supported by retractable platforms and indoor-outdoor facilities for use on designated days at anchor.
The marina will span both port and starboard sides of the yacht and include a lounge and bar areas. The combined 676sqm space (7,27sqft) will offer various water sports, fitness programming, and leisure services.
Marina Days will be incorporated into most Caribbean and Mediterranean itineraries, focusing on anchorages near locations such as Mayreau Island, Soufrière Bay, the Gulf of Squillace, and Monte Argentario during which Four Seasons I will offer time at sea level in sheltered or less-frequented waters.
Marina design and layout
The transverse marina differs from conventional aft-only configurations, instead providing expanded sea access and spatial flexibility across two decks. It can accommodate up to 105 guests and includes a lounge, bar, extendable deck, seawater pool, and direct water entry.
An additional 351sqm (3,778sqft) is made available through an extendable dock.
On Marina Days, the yacht will remain anchored to enable use of the marina. Morning activities will include yoga and wellness sessions, while water sports options will range from kayaks and inflatable waterboards to electric hydrofoils and pedalboards.
As part of the marina experience, Four Seasons I will also offer two transport options for excursions at anchor or in select ports: the Limo Tender and the Beachlander.
The Limo Tender is a 10-metre vessel with a private captain, offering customisable transportation for small groups. The Beachlander is a 10-metre Ribeye vessel designed for higher-speed excursions and access to coastal areas including beach clubs, snorkelling sites, and secluded coves.
Both vessels will be available on most sailings and are intended to support off-yacht experiences aligned with the vessel’s itinerary.
Four Seasons I will feature 95 suites designed in collaboration with Tillberg Design of Sweden and Creative Director Prosper Assouline, offering approximately 50 percent more living space per guest compared to other cruise vessels, according to the company. All accommodations will include floor-to-ceiling windows, private terraces, double vanity bathrooms, large showers, and generous closet space.
An adaptable system of adjoining suites enables guests to create extended multi-room layouts, with modular walls offering flexibility in vertical and horizontal suite combinations.
The seven largest suites range in size from 2,981 to 9,975 square feet (277 to 927 square metres), with the Funnel Suite – housed within the yacht’s glass-enclosed funnel – spanning four levels and featuring three bedrooms, splash pool, outdoor showers, and 280-degree panoramic views.
Additional amenities aboard Four Seasons I will include 11 dining and bar venues, a wellness and spa area, and a 19-metre-long stern pool. The yacht’s first itineraries will cover more than 130 destinations across over 30 countries, with initial sailings planned for the Caribbean in early 2026, followed by the Mediterranean from March 2026.
