Designed for just 16 guests, this contemporary yacht combines elevated aesthetics, spacious social areas, and personalized service in a setting that feels both exclusive and welcoming.

With sleek architectural lines, generous deck space, and thoughtfully appointed cabins, Tribute offers a seamless balance between immersive wildlife exploration and high-comfort cruising. Its curated itineraries — ranging from 5 to 7 days — explore diverse island regions, allowing travelers to select routes aligned with their schedule and interests. Given its limited guest capacity and strong demand as one of the fleet’s newest luxury vessels, early reservations are strongly recommended.

Cabin categories include well-appointed double Ocean Vista suites measuring approximately 18–20 m² (195–215 ft²), along with larger Panorama Suites ranging from 20–24 m² (215–265 ft²), as well as Premium Suites with an average size of 25 m² (269 ft²) as well as an expansive Owner's suite with a size of 50 m² (538 ft²) that provides enhanced space and elevated vantage points.

Each cabin features a private en-suite bathroom, individually controlled air conditioning, ample storage, and flexible bedding arrangements suitable for couples or travel companions. Large panoramic windows allow natural light to fill the interior spaces and maintain a visual connection to the surrounding seascape. The combination of modern design, careful detailing, and limited occupancy reinforces Tribute’s exclusive luxury character.
