A closer look
Aft Deck Al Fresco
The yacht's aft deck is a serene prelude to the sea, where morning coffee is savoured amidst the gentle lapping of waves against the hull. A polished teak table invites leisurely breakfasts and intimate evening meals, sheltered by the hardtop. The subtle hum of the engines fades into the background as conversations flow, punctuated by the scent of salt and distant pine, preparing you for days of exploration or tranquil relaxation.
Sun-Kissed Foredeck Lounging
Forward, the expansive sun pads offer an idyllic sanctuary for soaking in the Mediterranean warmth. Here, the panoramic views are uninterrupted, stretching to the horizon. Lie back with a compelling novel or simply close your eyes, feeling the gentle rhythm of the sea, the soft caress of the sea breeze. It’s a prime vantage point for watching dolphins play or admiring the vibrant hues of a Grecian sunset.
Elegant Saloon Sanctuary
Stepping inside, the main saloon offers a cool, sophisticated retreat from the midday sun. Plush seating in muted tones surrounds a low-slung coffee table, creating an inviting space for conversation or quiet contemplation. The indoor audio system fills the air with your chosen soundtrack, while large windows frame the ever-changing seascape, maintaining a seamless connection with the outside world.
Flybridge Vista Dining
Ascend to the flybridge, where a second al fresco dining area awaits, complemented by a discreet BBQ. This elevated position provides breathtaking 360-degree vistas, perfect for memorable lunches under the open sky or starlit dinners. The outdoor audio system sets a convivial mood as the chef prepares delectable grilled specialities, all against the magnificent backdrop of the Aegean.
Swim Platform Access
The generous swim platform is your gateway to the azure depths. Easily accessible, it provides a stable launchpad for aquatic adventures, whether you’re diving into the clear waters for a refreshing swim or preparing to launch one of the many water toys. It’s also the perfect spot to simply dangle your feet in the cooling sea after a day of sun-drenched exploration.
Accommodation
Four beautifully appointed cabins provide a peaceful haven for eight guests. The master suite, typically amidships, boasts a generous layout with ample storage and an ensuite, offering a private sanctuary. Two additional double cabins and a twin cabin ensure versatile sleeping arrangements, each featuring tasteful decor and thoughtful amenities. Crisp linens and soft lighting create an inviting atmosphere, promising restful nights after days filled with adventure. Every detail, from the polished wood finishes to the climate control, is designed for ultimate guest comfort and privacy.
Culinary experiences aboard are a delight, with a talented chef crafting bespoke menus tailored to your preferences. Fresh, local ingredients from the vibrant Greek islands are transformed into delectable dishes, from sun-ripened salads to succulent seafood. Enjoy casual al fresco meals on the aft deck or flybridge, where the BBQ adds a smoky flavour to evening feasts. For more formal occasions, the elegant saloon provides a refined setting, ensuring every meal is a memorable event against the backdrop of the stunning East Mediterranean.
While not boasting a dedicated spa, the yacht offers ample opportunities for rejuvenation. The expansive sun pads on the foredeck and flybridge invite serene sunbathing and quiet reflection. A refreshing dip from the swim platform into the crystalline waters of a secluded cove is the ultimate cool-down. The air-conditioned interiors provide a tranquil escape from the midday heat, ensuring comfort and relaxation throughout your voyage.
The yacht comes equipped with an exciting array of water toys, promising endless aquatic fun. Feel the exhilaration of slicing through waves on the Jet Skis, or glide across the serene surface with a Paddleboard. For the more adventurous, Water Skis for both adults and children, along with a Kneeboard and towable Tube, offer thrilling rides. Inflatable Watertoys provide playful distractions, ensuring every moment on the water is filled with enjoyment and laughter.

What a yacht like MEDUSA costs to own — not just to charter
A charter week on MEDUSA is a fixed, all-in number. Ownership of a 22m 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.
