Named after the Greek word for “Discovery,” Evrima was built in 2021 and launched in 2022 from Barcelona. Additionally, it is the brand’s first superyacht, at 623 feet. Accommodating 298 guests and currently cruising through Europe, it will begin to sail in the Caribbean in late 2024.
Some of the superyacht’s amenities include five restaurants, six lounges, a pool deck, spa services, and the legendary service known by the Ritz Carlton name.
Ilma
Ilma is the company’s second superyacht and was launched in 2024 to offer voyages in the Mediterranean. Upon the success of Evrima, Ilma was then custom-built to cater to the company’s growing demand for luxury travel at sea.
With the capacity to accommodate 448 guests, Ilma is bigger than Evrima but packed with the same high level of service and quality. The yacht has five restaurants, six bars, and a wine vault. Two of the restaurants were conceptualized by Michelin chefs, offering all-inclusive culinary delights for guests on board.
Luminara

Luminara is set to be launched in 2025, and it is scheduled to ply the Mediterranean route before sailing in the Asian Pacific region by the end of 2025. Some planned destinations in Asia include Busuanga, Phuket, Koh Samui, Ha Long Bay, Da Nang, El Nido, Puerto Princesa, Tokyo, Hong Kong, and Singapore.
There will be 226 suites in this superyacht, each with private terraces and unmatched space ratios. The total number of guests for the Luminara will be 452. Two new upper suites will also be featured, delivering 1000 square feet of expansive space.
It will also have five restaurants, six bars, a wine vault, a pool, a spa, and other amenities reflecting the Ritz-Carlton luxury and hospitality brand.
Evrima and Ilma (and Luminara soon) are redefining the standards of cruising in the Mediterranean and continuing to offer voyages within the region and into the Caribbean by the end of 2024. These voyages begin in Athens, Barcelona, Nice, Rome, Lisbon, Fort Lauderdale, Aruba, and San Juan. Reservations for voyages into Asia have also started, with journeys to Tokyo, Hong Kong, and Singapore already being offered.
