During her debut at the 2023 Mediterranean Yacht Show in Greece, YachtCharterfleet had the pleasure of stepping aboard the 74m (241ft) superyacht LADY VERA to marvel at the stunning layout and wealth of amenities she has to offer.
Fresh from an extensive refit, including a brand new light grey hull, the elegant custom-made motor yacht features a compelling line up of spacious living areas and an abundance of standout amenities that come together to create a luxurious and comfortable yacht charter platform.
As soon as you step on board, you are greeted by a vast main deck, courtesy of her 12-meter beam, which is complimented by several sumptuous white sofas positioned around a beautiful wide coffee table. Perfect for convening for drinks and cocktails, this resplendent area offers the first hint of what is in store for lucky yacht charter guests.
This area sits in between a shaded serving station and an elevated circular fold-down touch 'n' go helipad that can be interchangeably harnessed as a dance floor, sun lounging area and balcony over the sea – creating a unique split-level beach club with her huge bathing platform below.
Heading inside her cool interiors you are immediately transported into a world of elegance and refinement, where no detail has been overlooked.
LADY VERA’s main salon is her guests’ first port of call, which showcases an elegant Art Deco chiaroscuro scheme with touches of blue, yellow and gold that complement the unique artwork and sculptures adorning this area, including a large 3-dimensional rendering of Athens’ Parthenon.
Black zebrano wooden floorboards run through the center of the salon, creating two distinct port and starboard lounges replete with their own wide coffee tables that house beautiful coral centerpieces, with plush rugs adding to the overall sophisticated air.
This is enhanced by full height windows creating a harmonious connection to her natural surroundings. Recessed lighting in the ceiling, floor and under counters add a warm ambience throughout.
A large centralized drop-down screen can be also deployed for anyone keen to catch the big game or simply enjoy a cozy night on board, while a fully-stocked cocktail bar neatly partitions the main salon with her formal dining area.
On our visit, the table, capable of seating up to 12 guests, had been laid with an exquisite Hermès dining set and beautiful floral displays, set off by the resplendent chandelier overhead. An elegant grand piano on her starboard side lends a cultured vibe, while playful sculptures and colorful artwork add an instant touch of fun.
This area leads through to an black onyx stairwell and central elevator, providing access to her various guest cabins and main social spaces, including her convivial sky lounge.
This upper deck salon encompasses an inviting circular seating area, with further seating, games tables and a games console providing different entertainment options for guests, big and small. Whether looking for a peaceful retreat, enjoy some after-dinner games or simply want to curl up in front of one of the two screens on offer, this space is just calling out for days of relaxation and nights of fun.
This area also leads to a dedicated movie theater with plush tiered seating and surround sound offering an intimate movie experience nonpareil. This room sits alongside a convenient stewardess pantry ensuring her high service level continues, even while guests are enjoying a movie.
Back on the main deck, you'll find her generous full-beam master stateroom, which is accessed through a private study/office and separate lounge area. Further forward there is a large walk-in-closet leading to a powder room, replete with a sumptuous sofa, and two his and hers ensuites.
Huge vases of flowers and discreet lighting panels add a luxurious feel to the room, where principal guests are sure to enjoy the complete range of amenities on offer, including the latest audio/visual technology at the touch of a button – whether for work, social media or streaming movies.
There is a further generous VIP cabin located on her upper deck, with the remainder of her elegantly appointed guest cabins located on her lower deck.
These comprise four doubles, two of which can be converted into twin cabins, offering a high degree of versatility for a variety of charter party configurations.
Offering a wealth of relaxation and socializing throughout, her sunkissed top deck is definitely one of her standout features for leisurely days at anchor. Partitioned to offer a variety of conversational zones, the space plays host to a huge central cocktail bar and incredible 10-person spa pool.
This area is accessed via steps and is surrounded by plush sunpads adorned by parasols, with tinted glass panels offering privacy and protection from the wind without detracting from the stunning panoramic views.
As well as a convenient day head, there is also a tiered seating arrangement further aft with a removable cushion housing a projector that can be transmitted onto her white superstructure amidships, offering a beautiful cinema set-up for relaxing nights under a star-strewn night sky. This area also benefits from an amazing sound system, along with disco lights for memorable parties and glamorous shoreside events.
An additional dining option can be found on her upper deck aft for those who prefer to dine alfresco. This area is bestowed with a large lounge area, perfect for pre-dinner cocktails and appetizers. There is also a dining table on her main deck, ensuring plenty of choice for meals on board.
Another highlight lies at water level in her beautifully appointed beach club, encompassing a distinctly beach-house vibe. Featuring a cabana lounge, integrated TV screen, sauna and dedicated massage area, guests will find they have the ideal set-piece elements for relaxing and entertaining during their luxury yacht vacation.
Her beach club leads to a wide swim platform within easy reach of the sparkling azure waters, with shade offered from the fold-out helipad balcony above. For guests looking for more adventure, the water toy garage holds a host of adrenaline-fuelled equipment to stretch out sealegs and witness the staggering environment from a whole new angle.
LADY VERA also comes equipped with a limited edition 12-meter Chris Craft chase tender capable of speeds of up to 60 knots. With the freedom to be independent of the main yacht, the chase tender can act as a day boat, exploring destinations with greater ease and speed to any number of must-see destinations, from medieval coastal citadels to secluded lagoons and beaches.
After the tour was over, it's clear to see why LADY VERA is such a sought-after superyacht. Her wide alfresco areas have been cleverly designed with relaxation and entertainment in mind, while her chic interiors have placed elegance and luxury at the forefront. And with a crew of 16 on hand, a memorable luxury yacht charter is absolutely guaranteed.
