A closer look
The Sundeck Sanctuary
Ascend to the sundeck, where the warmth of the Mediterranean sun bathes the teak deck. Here, the aroma of a freshly prepared barbecue often drifts on the breeze, promising al fresco delights. Plush loungers invite hours of undisturbed repose, perhaps with a novel or a cool drink in hand, while panoramic vistas of the Aegean or Ionian archipelago unfold before your eyes. It’s a space crafted for both lively conversation and tranquil introspection.
Inviting Saloon Retreat
Step into the main saloon, a cool and inviting haven after a day bathed in sunshine. Soft furnishings in a palette of coastal hues create an atmosphere of understated elegance. This is where stories are shared over pre-dinner cocktails, or where guests might gather for a film on the integrated TV system. The gentle hum of the air conditioning provides a welcome respite, while large windows ensure you remain connected to the breathtaking maritime scenery.
The Aft Deck Al Fresco
The aft deck serves as a primary outdoor living area, beautifully shaded for comfort during the heat of the day. Imagine long, leisurely lunches served here, the gentle rocking of the yacht adding to the serenity. In the evenings, it transforms into a sophisticated dining area, where conversations linger under a canopy of stars. The close proximity to the swim platform makes spontaneous dips into the azure waters utterly irresistible.
Effortless Water Access
The integrated swim platform is your gateway to the invigorating embrace of the sea. Effortlessly accessible, it provides a stable and spacious area for preparing for water activities or simply enjoying a refreshing dip. From here, guests can launch paddleboards, don snorkelling gear, or simply lounge with their feet dangling in the crystal-clear waters. It merges the yacht seamlessly with its aquatic playground.
Indoor Audio Immersion
Within the yacht’s interiors, a sophisticated indoor audio system creates the perfect ambiance for any mood. Whether you desire a vibrant soundtrack for an evening gathering or soothing melodies for a quiet afternoon, the crisp sound fills the space without intrusion. It complements the elegant decor, providing a subtly luxurious backdrop to your time on board, enhancing every moment from morning coffee to late-night conversations.
Accommodation
LOTUS accommodates ten guests across five well-appointed cabins, each a private sanctuary of comfort. The master suite, typically forward, offers a serene escape with ample natural light and thoughtful amenities. Guest cabins, comprising a mix of doubles and twins, are meticulously arranged to ensure privacy and repose. Crisp linens, soft lighting, and generous storage create an inviting atmosphere, ensuring every guest wakes refreshed and ready for the day's adventures. The layout is designed for harmonious living, providing personal havens within the yacht’s intimate footprint.
The culinary journey aboard is a highlight, with a dedicated chef crafting exquisite dishes tailored to your preferences. From sun-drenched breakfasts on the aft deck to sophisticated dinners in the elegant saloon, every meal is an occasion. The integrated BBQ setup on the sundeck promises sizzling al fresco lunches, while fresh, local ingredients from the East Mediterranean form the heart of every menu. Special dietary requirements are catered for with meticulous attention to detail, ensuring a truly bespoke gastronomic experience.
While LOTUS does not feature a dedicated spa or gym, the entire yacht and its surroundings promote a profound sense of wellbeing. The expansive swim platform provides direct access to invigorating swims in the sea, a natural and refreshing form of exercise. The vast open decks invite moments of quiet contemplation and sun worship, fostering mental relaxation. Every day spent cruising the tranquil waters of the East Mediterranean contributes to a holistic sense of rejuvenation and calm.
The yacht’s generous collection of water toys ensures endless aquatic amusement. Plunge into the depths with Seabobs, glide across the surface on paddleboards, or feel the thrill of wakeboarding and water skiing – with equipment for both adults and children. For those seeking a different kind of exhilaration, kite board equipment is on hand. Floating mats and beach games encourage playful moments, ensuring every moment on the water is filled with joy and adventure.

What a yacht like LOTUS costs to own — not just to charter
A charter week on LOTUS is a fixed, all-in number. Ownership of a 26m yacht in this class is a five-year commitment — crew payroll, insurance, class and refit reserves, berthing and depreciation. Our yacht ownership vs charter vs fractional ownership study runs the real five-year cost of a €15 million yacht against the equivalent charter spend, and the most profitable yachts for owners ranking shows how much of that stack charter revenue actually recovers.
