The instantly recognizable 88m/288.6ft “MALTESE FALCON, acclaimed as the finest superyacht ever among a host of other awards, remains one of the world’s most innovative sailing yachts becoming a Jumeirah Privé Experience, where every element of service is elevated to Jumeirah’s exacting standards: a fully retrained crew, a wellness expert embodying the brand’s holistic philosophy, and an uncompromising focus on anticipatory, personalised care.
This truly iconic yacht has never been better, following a major double refit in summer 2022 and winter 2022-23, featuring a series of extraordinary upgrades.
Her gleaming hull has been repainted, and a new extendable passerelle now leads directly to the water, complemented by a new inflatable platform for ultimate beach-club living at sea level. On the flybridge, a new circular sunbed rotates with the sun, while inside, the guest areas are brighter and more inviting with lighter woods, cream panels, and fresh tapestries.
The main deck now features a new cinema room and a redesigned Japanese-style dining area, while the gym shares a state-of-the-art MS Sculpt electric muscle stimulator with the massage room. Starlink Wi-Fi is available throughout, and the wheelhouse is equipped with the latest technology. Sustainability has also been enhanced, with LED lighting throughout, a new engine control room, and new generators for reduced noise and vibration.
MALTESE FALCON signature features remain, including the three-deck, sky-lit atrium with stairs spiraling around the main mast – an architectural marvel. Film enthusiasts can enjoy the world’s largest outdoor cinema, projecting movies onto the lower sail for viewing from the flybridge. The main deck aft, now shaded by a stylish new hardtop, is perfectly suited for entertaining, with open-air dining and a circular sit-up bar, upgraded with cream marble and enhanced sound and lighting systems.
Onboard cuisine is reimagined through the guidance of a 3-Michelin-star master, creating a culinary programme found nowhere else at sea. Paired with entirely renewed, bespoke linens and materials throughout, every touchpoint, from dining to design, reflects an exclusive, meticulously curated standard that sets the yacht apart from any other vessel.
On the water, her extensive collection of brand-new toys ensures every desire can be fulfilled.
At night, the full-beam Master Suite on the lower deck offers a large walk-in wardrobe, an adjoining gym, and his-and-hers bathrooms featuring a Jacuzzi bath and separate shower. Alternatively, guests may choose the private VIP deck aft on the flybridge, complete with terrace access and walkaround side decks, featuring a brand-new bed with a retractable TV. Four additional Double Cabins on the lower deck, each with en-suite facilities, ensure comfort and privacy for all guests.
