Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection Injury Lawyer

The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection redefines luxury cruising with intimate yacht-style experiences, personalized service, and world-class amenities. Sailing aboard these elegant vessels offers a five-star blend of cruising and yachting, but accidents can still happen. If you or a loved one suffered an injury aboard a Ritz-Carlton yacht, you may be entitled to compensation.

At Holzberg Legal, we specialize in cruise ship injury claims and help passengers navigate complex maritime laws to recover damages for medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.


Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection Fleet

The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection currently features a growing fleet of ultra-luxury yachts, including:

  • Evrima – Launched in 2022, accommodating 298 guests
  • Ilma – Introduced in 2024, designed for 456 passengers
  • Luminara – Scheduled for 2025, offering 226 luxury suites

These intimate luxury yachts sail to high-end destinations across the Mediterranean, Caribbean, and Northern Europe, offering personalized excursions, private marinas, and high-end culinary experiences.


Common Accidents & Injuries on Ritz-Carlton Yachts

Even aboard a luxury yacht, passengers may suffer serious injuries due to negligence, poor maintenance, or safety lapses. Some of the most common incidents include:

Slip & Fall Accidents

  • Slick pool decks or wet flooring near The Marina, infinity pools, and whirlpools
  • Dimly lit staircases leading to lounges and private terraces
  • Unstable footing on gangways during embarkation and disembarkation

Tender Boat & Marina Accidents

  • Falls while boarding tender boats to shore excursions
  • Marina accidents involving water sports like kayaking, paddleboarding, and jet skiing

Shore Excursion Injuries

Ritz-Carlton offers high-end, curated excursions, including:

  • Wine tastings in Bordeaux
  • Private yacht charters in the Mediterranean
  • Cultural tours in Monte Carlo, Lisbon, and Stockholm

Accidents may result from transportation mishaps, guide negligence, or poorly maintained excursion equipment, leading to broken bones, concussions, or serious spinal injuries.

Food Poisoning & Illness Outbreaks

Dining at The Evrima Room, S.E.A., or Talaat Nam should be an exceptional experience, but foodborne illnesses, norovirus outbreaks, or allergic reactions can occur due to contaminated food or poor sanitation practices.

Spa & Fitness Injuries

Guests using The Ritz-Carlton Spa and fitness centers may suffer injuries due to faulty gym equipment, slip hazards, or improper staff supervision during treatments.

Medical Malpractice & Inadequate Medical Care

The Ritz-Carlton yachts feature onboard medical facilities, but they may be ill-equipped to handle serious injuries or emergencies, leading to delayed or inadequate treatment.

Security Failures & Assaults

Luxury yachts should ensure top-tier passenger safety, but insufficient security, unvetted staff, or lack of onboard surveillance can result in theft, harassment, or physical assaults.

If you were injured on a Ritz-Carlton yacht, consult with a maritime injury lawyer immediately to protect your legal rights.


Can I Sue Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection for an Injury?

Yes, but Ritz-Carlton’s passenger contract contains legal restrictions, including forum selection clauses that may require lawsuits to be filed in Florida, including the Southern District of Florida.

Cruise injury cases have strict filing deadlines, typically requiring passengers to file a claim within one year. Missing this deadline can prevent you from recovering compensation, so it’s crucial to act fast.


What to Do After an Injury on a Ritz-Carlton Yacht

  1. Report the Incident Immediately – Notify Guest Services or onboard medical staff, and request a copy of the incident report.
  2. Take Photos & Videos – Document the accident scene, your injuries, and any hazardous conditions.
  3. Obtain Witness Statements – Other passengers or crew members may help corroborate your claim.
  4. Seek Medical Attention – Visit the onboard medical facility and follow up with a specialist after disembarkation.
  5. Preserve Evidence – Keep medical bills, excursion details, receipts, and all travel documents.
  6. Avoid Signing Any Waivers – The cruise line may try to offer a quick settlement or liability waiver—don’t sign anything before consulting an attorney.
  7. Contact a Cruise Ship Injury Lawyer – A maritime attorney can evaluate your case and fight for maximum compensation.
