A pleasant Mediterranean climate, characterized by warm, sunny days and mild, comfortable nights. The weather is ideal for enjoying the scenic beauty of the islands and the clear blue waters. This climate adds to the overall enchanting experience of the cruise, making it perfect for those looking to relax and explore in a comfortable, serene environment.
The SEA CLOUD II perfectly combines spaciousness for up to 94 passengers with the lifestyle of a private yacht.
Since 2001, the SEA CLOUD II, with a total length of 117 meters, 23 sails and about 3,000 square meters of sail area as a three-mast barque, has also enriched the fleet of blue-water cruise ships under sails.
The use of the most modern materials, from metal for both the frames and masts to new types of plastic for sails and ropes, makes it possible to achieve almost the same sailing characteristics as a four-masted barque by using larger dimensions for the masts and sails with only two masts rigged on the frame and one gaff rigged mast. Among experts, the SEA CLOUD II would only be referred to as a “barque”, because only if the ship has more than three masts does one have to additionally specify the number.
The two Owners’ Suites on SEA CLOUD II follow in the maritime spirit of always keeping exclusive quarters white-glove ready for the ship’s owners. Today, these luxury spaces are reserved for guests who appreciate the elevated side of sailing with the comforts of a private yacht. Both light-filled suites are located on the lido deck and feature panoramic windows for a unique view of the sea, even from the four-poster bed. The opulence includes a fireplace, elegant cabinetry, high-end furnishings, and a spacious marble bath outfitted in our legendary golden fixtures.

Panoramic windows welcome in the sea, creating a bright, airy ambiance filled with casual elegance and upscale comfort. A separate sitting area makes the fireplace cozier. A majestic marble bath with golden fixtures is classic in this top tier. The Junior Suites are located on the promenade deck, with the restaurant, boutique, and reception close by.
The two grand staterooms envelope guests in sophistication. While the design and decor are decidedly stately and classically maritime, they still offer ultimate comfort. Panoramic windows welcome expansive sea views. Their location in the front of the promenade deck follows the elegant line of the SEA CLOUD II, enhancing the exhilarating feeling of sailing on a private yacht.
The three large porthole windows give these SEA CLOUD II deluxe staterooms a special maritime flair.

The spacious room exudes elevated coziness with sophisticated furnishing and finishings, a glamorous palette and a beautiful sitting area. The six deluxe staterooms are located mid-ship on the same deck as the massage and cosmetic treatments, fitness room, swim platform and hospital.
These outside deluxe staterooms with large porthole window are the epitome of nautical luxury on SEA CLOUD II. Located on both sides of the cabin deck, these are exclusive retreats of serenity that have made our sailing yachts famous. Sophisticated style comes in the form of rich wood finishings, Italian marble and golden fixtures.
These three outside staterooms with porthole windows spotlight a design inspired by officers’ cabins on traditional windjammers. Warm, lustrous woods and a comfortable sitting area exude a classically elegant maritime atmosphere and provide an elevated sanctuary at sea. They’re located on the same deck as massage and cosmetic treatments, the fitness room, swim platform and hospital.
