Emerald Xara is a planned Emerald Cruises superyacht for up to 128 guests, designed around intimate, open-air cruising rather than large-ship resort features. The 64-cabin vessel is being built in Vietnam and is expected to enter service in 2028, with an inaugural program focused on Asia, Australia and the South Pacific. Its compact size, expanded outdoor areas and yacht-style marina platform should suit travelers seeking relaxed luxury, small-group access and a quieter onboard atmosphere.
The design emphasizes open-air living, panoramic observation spaces, an expanded Sun and Sky Deck, a swim platform and water-sports access. Emerald Cruises identifies Xara as a next-generation yacht sharing the design approach of Emerald Kaia.
Planned dining is centered on Emerald Cruises' yacht dining concept, including La Cucina and additional indoor-outdoor dining space. Exact Xara-specific venue details remain subject to final delivery information.
Entertainment is expected to favor intimate enrichment, live performances and destination-focused programming rather than large theater productions. No Xara-specific entertainment schedule has been published.
Emerald Xara is planned with 64 cabins for up to 128 guests, including suites and staterooms designed for contemporary yacht cruising. Public specifications indicate four decks with cabins.
The ship is marketed primarily as an adult-oriented luxury yacht experience; no dedicated children's facilities have been confirmed.
Planned wellness features include the Elements Spa, indoor-outdoor fitness facilities and open-air exercise areas. The yacht is also designed with multiple spaces for swimming and watersports.
