If you want to take your cruise game up a notch, then a company has launched a trip that could get a bit "spicy".
Killing Kittens, the kink-positive event company known for its hedonistic, female-led parties, is launching a one-of-a-kind cruise for adventurous couples and solo women ready to trade the usual beach read for masked balls and latex parties under the stars.
Departing from Barcelona and stopping at Monte Carlo, Florence, and Portofino, the cruise’s itinerary might look like a luxury getaway at first glance. But what’s planned on board is far from your typical holiday.
Guests will experience Killing Kittens’ most popular events, including its famous White Party, a masked ball, the primal Kreatures of the Night soiree, the latex-themed Dominion, and Hedonism, the brand’s longest-running event.
But while the cruise invites guests to let loose in one of the onboard “play rooms,” founder Emma Sayle’s strict rules ensure that even at sea, pleasure doesn’t override respect.
All guests must adhere to the three core values of Killing Kittens: privacy, confidentiality, and discretion.
Revealing the identity of fellow guests is strictly prohibited, and harassment, abuse, or harm of any kind will not be tolerated. The rules also demand honesty about relationships, so if you’re bringing your spouse, “don’t pretend she isn’t.”
No Solo Men AllowedThe cruise is strictly for solo women and women with their partners, staying true to Killing Kittens’ mission of celebrating female pleasure and ensuring the safety of women, trans, and non-binary individuals. Solo men are not allowed onboard, let alone in playrooms.
As Emma Sayle tells Metro: “Obviously it’s consent, consent, consent, and everything is based on respect and being a decent human being.”
Guests will sign consent and attendance forms onboard, and unlike land-based Killing Kittens parties, there is no need for prior membership – just a commitment to follow the rules.
You can’t just strip off anywhere on this cruise, either. Emma explains there are designated clothing-optional areas, while the event nights have specific dress codes.
“You’ll need to adhere to the dress code depending on the theme of the night,” Emma explains.
“The White party is self explanatory – it’s all white; the masked ball is black tie and ball gowns with masks; kreatures of the night is woodland, goddesses, nymphs – a chance to play real dress up.
“Hedonism is beach club wear in the day, and in the night Dominion is latex and leather.”
For those lacking the perfect mask or headdress, the ship will offer mask and headdress-making stations to help guests fully embrace each erotic theme.
The cruise sets sail on June 9, 2026, for six nights of kink, connection, and curated experiences.
Prices start around $6,000 for an interior cabin, with the trip being fully all-inclusive. This means guests can indulge in food, drinks, and many onboard experiences without extra costs, though some special activities will incur additional fees.
Beyond the nightly parties, guests can take part in cooking classes, wine and whiskey tastings, sunrise yoga, morning run clubs, and sex workshops covering relationships, self-expression, sensory play, and even a “filthy quiz night.”
Couples may also enjoy a highlight of the week: couples’ speed dating, offering a playful chance to meet like-minded adventurers.
