Evrima, the first ever cruise ship built as a part of the Ritz Carlton Yacht Collection is a hotel-at-sea experience complete with Bromic’s Platinum Smart-Heat Electric Marine outdoor heaters aboard six open deck areas of the ship.

The 298-passenger vessel was designed by Interior Architect and Project Manager, Elena Cristofari, who was looking to create a luxurious experience aboard a cruise ship with a superyacht design and style. The cruise ship has an abundance of amenities including six restaurants, 149 suite-style cabins, 4 pools, a cigar humidor, two bars, a beauty salon and spa deck, a water-level marina terrace with water toys and a fitness centre.

Taking into consideration this unique design and luxurious guest experience, Cristofari took advantage of Bromic's complimentary design service, collaborating with the Bromic technical team to design a heat layout that could be concealed and recessed in the ceiling to improve the comfort level for every passenger. 

“The layout [of the heaters] was driven by the seating positions for the restaurant areas and sofa disposition for the lounges,” states Cristofari. The Bromic technical team then drew-up a free 2D heat plan and were able to recommend personalised heating solutions including sleek recessed mounting options that would provide the most ideal level of comfort for guests aboard the cruise ship, and usability of the outdoor spaces year-round.

“The passenger comfort level on a luxury cruise ship or yacht should be the main goal of the experience,” says Cristofari. “They [BROMIC’s Platinum Marine heaters] perfectly fit the design of the ceiling and improve the comfort level for the passengers”.

Composed of a fully sealed heater body, and a premium, tinted ceramic-glass screen, Bromic’s low form factor Platinum Collection heaters spread radiant heat evenly across a large area while minimising wind interference and unwanted light emissions — so guests can simply enjoy the comfort of the heat without interrupting the magic of the moment. Made of durable AISI 316 marine grade stainless steel and certified by Lloyds Register, the Platinum Electric Marine heaters are resistant to the corrosive elements of coastal and marine environments, so guests can enjoy them for many years to come.

Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection has a bright future ahead with plans for 8-10 yachts for multiple Marriott International brands in the coming years including the upcoming Ilma and Luminara, both also outfitted with Bromic’s Platinum Electric Marine outdoor heaters.
