Project Utopia is the size to a commercial cruise liner and is big enough to host a small population. The “island” is circular in shape, measures 330 feet in diameter,and spans 11 decks of living space. The top decks are covered with a glass canopy, which allows sunlight to filter into the interior. The glass canopy can also be opened when the weather permits, providing fresh air to the top floors. When open, the top floor acts as an outdoor pool deck, complete with central swimming area.

The 296 m (971 ft), 108,000 GT (gross tonnage), ship has 199 residences ranging in size from 130 to 613 m2 (1,400 to 6,600 sq ft.). Residents of the ship are able to bring their personal belongings with them to their private homes on board. The ship has a 175-room luxury boutique hotel, casino, 16,000 sq. ft. spa, night club, swimming pools, children's pool with water slide, rock climbing wall, outdoor movie theatre, deck with private cabanas, putting greens and two golf simulators, concierge lounge, sports lounge, paddle tennis courts, 500-seat main lounge, 235-seat observation lounge, hall of angels, deli café and grocery store, demonstration kitchen, marina, three signature restaurants and a private residents' club with two restaurants and a private pool.

The Project Utopia luxury residences prices start at US$3.9 million and rise to US$30 million.

The vessel remains stable in choppy waters, thanks to four platform legs that anchor it into place, even during extreme conditions. Each leg has a propeller that allows the island to move at slow speeds in a steady manner.

Four helicopter pads (which Sweetwater has utilized in her film scenes) provide access to the island via air, and wet docks house boats and jet skis for recreational use. The interior hosts a retail area, a theater, a restaurant area, bars, nightclubs and a casino. An observation deck perched in the crow’s nest area offers guests a 360 degree view at 65 meters above the sea.
