The crew quarters are equally impressive, with six cabins to house 11 crew members. These spaces ensure that the crew can offer unparalleled service while maintaining operational efficiency. The crew’s own private access routes to all areas of the yacht ensure guests’ comfort and privacy.

This space offers a cozy and intimate atmosphere with stunning views from every seat. The large windows and custom-built swivel bar stools enhance the space’s functionality and charm. A dining table seating six complements the informal yet elegant feel of the skylounge, and the adjoining aft deck is the ideal spot for dining under the stars or enjoying casual lounging.

Featuring a large bar, seating for eight, a Jacuzzi for eight people, and a spacious area perfect for lounging or dancing, the sundeck is one of the yacht’s crowning jewels.
