A Boat International article named the Swan 115 as one of the "6 of the best Nautor's Swan sailing yachts"."

In a 2015 review for Yachting World, Elaine Bunting wrote, "With orders for four 115s, the move to semi custom carbon superyacht territory has been perhaps more successful than even Nautor dared hope. The company seems to have timed it just right: after a sharp contraction in sailing superyachts builds since 2008, demand is returning, though tentatively, and Nautor's Swan is well-placed by being such a long-established prestige brand ... Superyacht it may be, but this looks like a proper sailing yacht and its design and execution has a timeless quality that would not be foreign to any Swan owner of times gone by."
