If riding on the original, redesigned Orient Express train in 2025 and staying at an Orient Express hotel top your bucket list, make room: The Orient Express Silenseas, an opulent 722-foot-long (220-meter-long) ship with three masts towering at over 300 feet high, is set to be the world’s largest sailing yacht—and superyacht, period—and will ply Mediterranean and Caribbean routes starting in spring 2026. It will offer 54 suites, accommodating 120 passengers. Reservations will begin as early as 2024.

The Orient Express Silenseas is global hospitality giant Accor SA’s first entry into the cruise industry, in partnership with French shipbuilding company Chantiers de l’Atlantique. AccorHotels shared details about its future cruises with Bloomberg, ahead of its public announcement on Wednesday. Two yachts will be built, with the second delivery scheduled for the first quarter of 2027.
