Her flexible cabin arrangement offers multiple configurations to suit every party.

The full-beam owner’s suite is a private oasis, presenting two private balconies, a service alcove, a lounge, a study, and his and hers ensuite bathrooms.

Generous social areas invite every mood and moment. The library and media room are ideal for movie nights or intimate cocktail gatherings. For al fresco occasions, two expansive dining areas on the aft deck and bridge deck set the scene, while the sun deck tempts with loungers and a jacuzzi for leisurely days. The sky lounge serves as a second salon, offering air-conditioned comfort with panoramic views.

On the main deck, the grand salon evokes a classic club ambiance, where glossy burlwood and large windows frame ever-changing vistas. Oversized settees and gracefully upholstered chairs make this a natural spot for aperitifs and conversation, and a large TV screen, concealed by artwork, is ready for viewing at the touch of a button. Forward, the formal dining salon can be closed for intimate dinners; up to sixteen guests may be seated at the high gloss bond wood table, whose leaves can be removed for more modest parties.

The master ensuite is appointed in antique travertine and gold leaf, featuring his and her sinks and mirrors, a separate toilet room, and a double shower room.

The bridge deck embraces an informal spirit with fantastic views. Aft, ample seating invites relaxation and fun in the sun, while under the fixed cover a large shaded area encourages lingering conversations and open-air dining; the aft deck dining table easily accommodates sixteen guests. Through double doors, the sky lounge is a favorite breakfast retreat, and a separate library and media room provides a cozy haven for reading, games, or movie nights.
