With every voyage, we aspire to create experiences that are unlike the rest—intimate, immersive, and timeless.

We had the honor of hosting an exclusive preview voyage aboard Luminara, the newest addition to our superyacht fleet. Over three remarkable days, a select group of creators, partners, and executives joined us for a journey through the Mediterranean—featuring daytime activations, immersive art tours, chef-led culinary demos by Michael Mina and Fabio Trabocchi, and lively evening entertainment. A defining moment of the voyage was the christening of Luminara by actress Simone Ashley, who was named the official Godmother of Luminara in a ceremony at sea. Departing from Barcelona with stops in Palma de Mallorca and Rome, Luminara will sail through the Mediterranean now and continue its journey to the Maldives and Asia Pacific—bringing thoughtfully curated travel experiences to guests around the world.
