Guests aboard the Ilma can look forward to personalized service and amenities including a personal concierge and 24-hour in-suite dining.
The yacht also features a variety of dining venues onboard inspired by local cuisines from around the world such as the Mediterranean or Southeast Asia.

The Ilma will embark on its inaugural season in 2024 with itineraries ranging from seven to eleven nights. The yacht will mostly be deployed in the Caribbean and Europe.
