Jumeirah Expands Privé Collection With Iconic Maltese Falcon Superyacht Experience

Jumeirah, a prominent name in luxury hospitality and part of Dubai Holding, has unveiled a significant partnership with The Maltese Falcon, introducing it as a Jumeirah Privé Experience. This collaboration marks Jumeirah's strategic entry into the luxury yachting sector, adding to its exclusive collection of curated escapes.

The Maltese Falcon, an 88-metre sailing superyacht, is renowned for its innovation and craftsmanship. Since its launch in 2006, it has won over 18 awards. Its unique DynaRig system features three rotating carbon-fibre masts that can unfurl 2,400 square metres of sail in six minutes.

This partnership aims to bring Jumeirah's distinctive hospitality to the high seas. The onboard experience will reflect the brand's global reputation for exceptional service. Guests can expect signature culinary delights and wellness offerings that echo Jumeirah’s warm hospitality.

The Maltese Falcon will begin its journey under the Jumeirah Privé banner in December 2025. Starting from Antigua, it will offer seasonal itineraries between the Mediterranean and Caribbean. Summer routes include the Balearic Islands and the French Riviera, while winter sees a return to Caribbean destinations like Saint Martin.

Jumeirah is committed to sustainable growth and plans to double its portfolio by 2030. The brand aims to be a leading force in hospitality by expanding across key markets globally. This growth aligns with their vision of enriching guest experiences through intentional design and holistic wellbeing.

The Maltese Falcon joins Jumeirah Thanda Island as part of the Jumeirah Privé collection. This portfolio was created to offer exclusive escapes that blend privacy with world-class amenities and service.

CEO's Vision

Thomas B. Meier, CEO of Jumeirah, expressed enthusiasm about this new venture: "The Maltese Falcon marks an exciting chapter for Jumeirah Privé, extending our reach into the world of luxury yachting. Designed for the most discerning travellers, this collaboration reflects our commitment to creating distinctive and purposeful experiences that combine privacy, exclusivity and exceptional service."

This partnership underscores Jumeirah's dedication to providing unique travel experiences while maintaining its core values of privacy and exclusivity.
