Jumeirah, the global luxury hospitality brand under Dubai Holding, has announced a partnership adding one of the world’s most celebrated sailing superyachts – The Maltese Falcon – to its elite Jumeirah Privé collection.

This move marks Jumeirah’s strategic entry into the world of high-end yachting, expanding a portfolio designed for travellers seeking absolute privacy, exclusivity and world-class service. The Maltese Falcon joins Jumeirah Thanda Island as the second property in the ultra-luxury Privé offering.

Jumeirah will bring its signature touch to the onboard experience, from tailored gastronomy and holistic wellness to the refined, anticipatory service that defines the brand. The aim: to recreate Jumeirah’s warm, generous hospitality at sea, elevated to superyacht standards.

An icon of modern sailing, the 88-metre Maltese Falcon has won more than 18 awards and is renowned for its engineering, elegance and groundbreaking DynaRig system, capable of deploying 2,400 m² of sail in six minutes.

Under the Jumeirah Privé banner, the yacht will begin operations in December 2025, sailing seasonally between the Mediterranean and the Caribbean. 

Destinations include the French Riviera, Monaco, Sardinia, the Amalfi Coast, Croatia, Greece, Türkiye, Saint Martin and St. Barth – a collection of the world’s most coveted luxury coastlines.

Jumeirah continues to expand globally and remains on track to double its portfolio by 2030, strengthening its ambition to become the world’s most influential luxury hospitality brand.
