Emerald Cruises Unveils the Next-Generation Superyacht

Emerald Kaia will become the third luxury superyacht in Emerald Cruises' fleet, building on the successes and popularity of her slightly smaller sisters, Emerald Azzurra (built in 2022) and Emerald Sakara (2023). Reaching an impressive 393 feet in length, this spectacular vessel will exceed all your yacht cruising expectations with more space per guest than similar vessels of her size and with 70+ crew members pampering her 128 guests. Custom-designed to allow unique access to the fascinating ports and harbours only intimate yachts can reach, she will venture off the beaten track, gifting her guests the freedom to explore uncharted territory and the world’s most captivating shores. 

Your culinary desires will be satisfied with Emerald Kaia’s exquisite dining options. Enjoy gourmet dinners and mouthwatering breakfasts and lunches at La Cucina, Kaia’s signature restaurant with an expanded al fresco La Cucina Terrace. Savour the new Asian-style private dining experiences exclusive to just eight guests at the Night Market Grill (available at an up charge). Expect fresh, locally sourced meals, thoughtfully crafted by expert chefs, with complimentary sommelier-paired wine, Champagne, beer or spirits. Dining aboard Emerald Kaia will be one of the greatest pleasures of your super yacht cruising experience.  

A well sized infinity swimming pool, a Marina Deck with Marina Lounge & Bar and an expansive 5,500 square foot Sky Deck complete with an enclosed Sky Lounge and Bar will offer you a luxurious open-air feel, complete with breathtaking panoramic views. Relax in a cabana by the Spa Pool, rejuvenate at Elements Spa complete with 3 saunas (including an infrared sauna), massage rooms, and an assortment of indulgent spa and hair treatments. Worship the sun from a comfortable sun bed or sun lounger on the Observation Deck, beckoning you to relax and indulge in unparalleled comfort and style, perhaps with a book and an umbrella drink in hand. If you are feeling active, an aft Marina Platform boasts water toys such as kayaks, stand-up paddleboards, floating platforms, snorkelling equipment, the super fun SEABOBs, as well as a giant water trampoline for you to enjoy. When ashore, EmeraldACTIVE tours help guests explore destinations in a new way. Hike to local attractions or take advantage of the yacht's complimentary Gocycle electric bicycles to explore on your own or on guided tours. 

Emerald Kaia’s uniquely designed staterooms and suites will become your private haven, where everything you need is at your fingertips. Eighty eight percent (88%) of Kaia’s contemporary accommodations feature their own private veranda, offering an unmatched sense of openness and promising her guests an extraordinary cruising experience on a yacht of this size.
