A closer look
Aft Deck Al Fresco
The main aft deck serves as a sophisticated prelude to the yacht's interiors. Here, a polished teak dining table invites long, languid lunches under the Mediterranean sun or starlit dinners. The gentle sea breeze and panoramic views frame every meal, creating an atmosphere of relaxed refinement. Plush seating areas beckon for an aperitif, providing a seamless transition from the day's adventures to elegant evenings at anchor.
Saloon's Refined Sanctuary
Step into the main saloon, a haven of calm where neutral tones meet rich textures. Expansive windows flood the space with natural light, offering uninterrupted vistas of the passing coastline. Deep, comfortable sofas and armchairs are arranged for convivial conversation or quiet contemplation, perhaps with a book from the ship's modest library. The subtle lighting scheme transitions effortlessly from bright daytime to ambient evening glow.
Sky Deck Vista
Ascend to the open sky deck, where the horizon stretches infinitely before you. This elevated sanctuary is perfect for sun worshippers, offering generously cushioned loungers for soaking up the warmth. Adjacent, a beautifully integrated Jacuzzi promises restorative soaks, enveloped by the vast expanse of the sea and sky. It’s a prime location for morning coffee as the sun rises or a sundowner as dusk paints the heavens.
Bridge Deck Relaxation
Just forward of the pilothouse, a secluded seating area on the bridge deck offers a more intimate space for reflection. Protected from the elements, it’s an ideal spot for enjoying a quiet breakfast or escaping with a captivating novel. The vantage point provides a unique perspective of the yacht's graceful lines and the unfolding seascape, a private retreat for those seeking solace amidst the journey.
Foredeck Sun Pad
The foredeck presents another inviting area for basking in the sun's warmth. A vast sun pad, luxuriously appointed with soft cushioning, provides an excellent spot for undisturbed relaxation. Here, one can feel the gentle spray of the ocean and enjoy the refreshing sea air, offering an exhilarating sensation as the yacht glides through the waves, a perfect spot for sunbathing in privacy.
Accommodation
Below deck, four beautifully appointed cabins await, providing serene retreats for eight guests. The full-beam master suite, often found forward, offers a sanctuary of calm with its generous proportions, perhaps featuring a comfortable seating area and an opulent en suite. Each guest cabin is a testament to thoughtful design, offering plush bedding, ample storage, and private facilities, ensuring utmost comfort and privacy. The interiors are finished with a sophisticated palette, creating a tranquil environment conducive to restful sleep after exhilarating days on the water, all maintained at a perfect climate by the yacht's air conditioning.
Culinary delights are a cornerstone of the charter experience. A talented chef crafts bespoke menus tailored to individual preferences, sourcing the freshest local ingredients from vibrant Mediterranean markets. Meals can be enjoyed al fresco on the aft deck, where the sea breeze complements every dish, or in the elegant interior dining area. From casual breakfasts to elaborate gourmet dinners, each meal is a celebration, served with impeccable attention by the attentive crew, ensuring a memorable gastronomic journey.
For moments of pure relaxation, the yacht features a delightful Jacuzzi on the sky deck. Imagine steamy, bubbling waters against the backdrop of an endless azure sea or a star-strewn night sky. This inviting amenity offers a perfect antidote to active days, providing a soothing escape for muscle relaxation and serene contemplation. The yacht's stabilisers ensure a smooth, comfortable ride, enhancing the overall sense of tranquility and wellbeing on board.
The yacht comes equipped with an exciting array of water toys, promising endless aquatic enjoyment. Guests can feel the thrill of skimming across the waves on a stand-up Jet Ski or mastering the art of the Wakeboard. For more relaxed fun, a Banana boat and various towable tubes provide laughter-filled moments for all ages. Water skis for adults are also available, ensuring every preference for on-water adventure is catered for, all launching easily from the swim platform.

What a yacht like NEW STAR costs to own — not just to charter
A charter week on NEW STAR is a fixed, all-in number. Ownership of a 30m 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.
