Is Food Included on Four Seasons Yachts? A Complete Dining Guide

The question everyone asks first

The most common question I get from clients considering Four Seasons I is a simple one: Is food included? The honest answer is: Partially. Breakfast is complimentary for all guests, as are non-alcoholic beverages and in-suite snacks. Beyond that, dining is priced à la carte across the yacht’s 11 venues. Four Seasons estimates approximately $250 USD per person per day to cover food and beverage comfortably—but this is genuinely a ship where you could spend considerably more or considerably less depending on how you approach it. Knowing the landscape in advance makes all the difference.

The restaurants worth reserving in advance

Sedna is the signature dining room and the one to prioritize above all else. An ever-evolving menu is shaped by a rotating cast of master chefs, and the sommelier-curated wine program features rare varietals you won’t encounter elsewhere. The Galician beef sirloin and the poulet de bresse with Périgord truffle are emblematic of the ambition here. A few times a year, Sedna hosts accomplished Four Seasons chefs from properties worldwide for multi-night residencies that remake the dining room entirely—April 2026 brings coastal Greek cooking from Athens; July and August bring feather-light Provençal cuisine from the Grand-Hôtel du Cap-Ferrat. If your sailing overlaps with a residency, book Sedna every night. Evening chic attire; $100 and over.

Miuna is the yacht’s omakase counter—a grand Hinoki wood bar seating a limited number of guests each service. The chefs build every course around sustainably sourced local ingredients brought aboard at each port, so no two meals are ever the same. The sake list is exceptional, and the Japanese cocktail program is built around fresh fruits, herbs, and premium spirits. It books up quickly; reserve before you board. Lunch on sailing days only, dinner nightly; $100 and over.

Terrasse anchors every day with a generous complimentary breakfast—fresh-pressed juices, regional pastries, and dishes that shift to reflect each port of call. For lunch and dinner, it pivots to coastal Mediterranean: hearth-fired pizzas, house-made pastas, and expertly grilled seafood. The Plateau de Fruits de Mer (a seafood tower for two, $125) is worth ordering for a celebratory lunch. Casual chic; $50 and over.

Beyond the dining room

Some of the most memorable eating and drinking on Four Seasons I happens outside the formal restaurants. The Champagne & Caviar bar on Deck 6—open 4 to 10 p.m. only—is a sunset ritual unto itself. The selection spans Grand Cru and Grower Champagnes from Krug, Dom Pérignon, Bollinger, and Telmont, served alongside a global caviar menu. Don’t overlook the uni pasta: tagliolini with sea urchin, egg yolk, and caviar ($35), quietly one of the best bites on the entire ship.

Salon serves a proper afternoon tea ($75 per person)—warm buttermilk scones with Cornish clotted cream, foie gras terrines, lobster tartlets, and seasonal pastries paired with rare teas and Champagne by the glass. It’s one of the best-value experiences on board and genuinely lovely. Bar Piscine keeps the poolside energy right with refreshing ceviches, a Wagyu cheeseburger with black truffle aioli, and cocktails built for sunshine. Pistachio, the all-day café, is the spot for a quick espresso and a filled-to-order cruffin before a shore excursion, or a scoop of the daily gelato on the way back.

After dinner, Bar O earns a visit. The yacht’s ode to 1960s and ‘70s cocktail culture serves vintage spirits with genuine rarity: the negroni with 1950s Charles Tanqueray gin ($50) and the dry martini with 1950s Russian vodka and 1960s Noilly Prat ($46) are collector’s pours in the truest sense. Horizon Lounge on Deck 11—adults only—is the right call for golden hour, with Levantine small plates, a resident DJ, and cocktails inspired by the Near East.

The experience that sets the tone

The detail that I think will genuinely surprise most guests is in-suite terrace breakfast. It’s complimentary, available every morning, and served on your private terrace with open water on all sides. The menu runs from gluten-free banana oat waffles to beautifully poached egg tartines on grilled sourdough. There’s no dining room to navigate, no reservation required—just unhurried morning light and the sea. It sounds simple, but it’s the kind of detail that makes Four Seasons I feel categorically different from anything else at sea, and exactly the experience I’m most looking forward to hearing about from clients once they’re back.

Dining budget

Breakfast is complimentary; all other meals and beverages are priced à la carte. Budget approximately $250 USD per person per day for food and beverage. Venues like the Champagne & Caviar bar and Sedna can push this higher; Pistachio and Bar Piscine offer ways to stay well under it.

Children’s dining

Children 5 and under eat complimentary. Ages 6–12 order from a dedicated children’s menu or the full menu at select restaurants at 50% off. Budget approximately $30–$50 per child per day.

Dress code

Most venues are “yacht casual” or “casual chic.” Sedna requires “evening chic” for dinner—pack at least two smart evening outfits if you plan to dine there.

BYOB policy

Each suite may bring two 750ml bottles of wine or spirits aboard. Spirits are limited to in-suite consumption; wines may be enjoyed in public areas with a $39 corkage fee per bottle.

Dietary needs & kosher options

The culinary team accommodates all dietary restrictions with advance notice. Strictly kosher pre-packaged meals require a minimum of 12 weeks’ advance notice and are served in original packaging to maintain kosher status.
