Orient Express Corinthian - New Luxury Sailing Yacht

Between Myth and Sea

Aboard this transcendent vessel, destination becomes part of the journey itself. The Orient Express Corinthian navigates the Mediterranean’s sun-dappled waters, winds gently caressing its sails, before venturing into the Adriatic’s historic harbors and further to the evocative coastlines of the Caribbean. Here, world-class ports like Saint-Tropez, Capri, and Monte Carlo punctuate the rhythm of the voyage, each offering a tapestry of culture, art, and coastal life that’s as intoxicating as the sea air. To cross these waters aboard Corinthian is to immerse yourself in landscapes that have inspired artists, poets, and wayfarers for centuries.

A Legacy Reimagined at Sea

More than 140 years after its first legendary train journey captivated the world, Orient Express ventures beyond the rails with the Corinthian — a monumental leap into ultra-luxury sea travel. Born from the heritage of French savoir-faire and a visionary collaboration between industry titans, this yacht heralds a new chapter where elegance, culture, and exploration collide. Forged in the same spirit that defined the golden age of travel, Corinthian transforms cruising into an art form — a place where movement is measured not by time, but feeling.

A Floating Masterpiece

On deck and within, Corinthian is more than a yacht; it is a sculptural ode to light, material, and form. Guided by French architect Maxime D’Angeac, spaces flow with a sense of calm proportion and fluid continuity. Teak and polished brass, glass and marble, wood and velvet — materials converse with natural light to create interiors that are refined yet unpretentious, intimate yet grand. The very structure of the Corinthian honours movement: sightlines extend toward the horizon, lounges open seamlessly to the sea, and interiors breathe with the soft whisper of shifting light.

Sanctuaries Above the Waves

With just 54 meticulously appointed suites welcoming up to 110 guests, Corinthian feels less like a cruise ship and more like a private sanctuary. Each suite frames panoramic sea views — a private canvas for sunrises and moonlight reflections. From panoramic prestige suites to two-bedroom residences with private jacuzzis, every space is designed to blur the lines between indoors and ocean. Rich textiles in sea‑inspired hues, handcrafted woods, and bespoke furnishings evoke a sense of calm refinement that invites lingering and introspection.

Gastronomy Without Borders

Culinary life aboard Corinthian echoes the freedom of the sea itself, unfolding without clocks and steeped in sensory delight. Under the creative guidance of Michelin‑starred chef Yannick Alléno, dining is an ever‑evolving celebration of place, season, and imagination. Multiple restaurants and bars — from the light‑filled main dining room to intimate lounges — offer atmospheres as varied as the destinations themselves. Meals unfold leisurely, accompanied by fine wines and bespoke cocktails, while richly articulated menus reflect regional influences filtered through Alléno’s avant‑garde sensibility.

A Life in Perfect Balance

Luxury aboard Corinthian extends well beyond suites and salons. The yacht’s spa and wellness spaces — where serenity reigns and time softens — invite you to renew body and spirit against a backdrop of endless ocean. Fitness and yoga studios face wide horizons, pools offer quiet respite under sun and stars, and a sleek marina gives access to water sports that range from paddleboarding to snorkeling in hidden coves. For moments of creative escape, the amphitheater hosts performances, while a private recording studio and cinema invite guests to express and explore in utterly delightful ways.

An Invitation to Wander

On the Orient Express Corinthian, the art of travel is redefined with every nautical mile — refined, soulful, and deeply human. Here, each wave becomes a companion and every sunset a memory, capturing a sense of freedom that lingers long after the journey ends.
