Perfectly poised for both private use and charter, the motor yacht Illusion V has been designed as a relaxed and stylish family home at sea. Opulent materials, including Lalique glass, exotic woods, coconut weave, mother-of-pearl, onyx and parchment, are ingeniously employed throughout her interior and exterior design.
Boasting a precision layout combining style with space and comfort, her external design is the result of the Benetti design team, with considerable input from the designer duo Green & Mingarelli. Full height windows on her main deck flood her sumptuous interior with an abundance of natural light, and also promise unspoiled views. Her vast master suite can be found on the main deck, and below a full width VIP stateroom and four large staterooms with lavish ensuite bathrooms in rich cream stone and onyx. The main deck also has a full bar (one of six on board) and beach area, allowing maximum privacy for relaxing or entertaining as well as easy access to the water or one of her many water toys. The toy list is incredible and guests can choose from flying on the jet board to the aquatic fun on the seabob and scuba diving. The lower deck is a spacious beach area. Everything has been carefully planned for optimum privacy, comfort and fun and all her decks provide guests with a multitude of entertainment areas and secluded zones.
The latest movies are on offer in the cinema on the bridge deck, cocktails at sunset can be served in the Jacuzzi, and guests can work off all that indulgence with the state-of-the-art gym equipment on the sun deck. The sun deck is itself spectacular, offering clear uninterrupted views form the rear sunloungers to the raised foredeck Jacuzzi area. At the centre of the sun deck is a large dining area that can be used year round thanks to clear doors fore and aft.
Like her predecessors, Illusion V represents the latest in a series of yachts built for this client through Camper & Nicholsons broker Alex Lees-Buckley and is available to charter in the Mediterranean throughout the summer season and the Caribbean and Bahamas throughout the winter season. camperandnicholsons.com
