STARBURST IV (CRN Ancona 74m)

ANDREA motor yacht can accommodate 12 guests across eight luxurious cabins, including a stunning master suite with huge windows offering panoramic views from bed and a private terrace forward, plus a VIP cabin with sliding doors to the side deck. There are also a further four doubles and two convertible cabins.

ANDREA yacht’s list of amenities is breathtaking, with both an indoor and outdoor cinema, a gym, plus a spa that connects to an outside massage area thanks to a fold-down balcony.

Indeed, it’s in her outdoor spaces that ANDREA really exceeds herself as a charter yacht. There’s a Jacuzzi on the sundeck, of course, and spacious foredeck bow, which can be converted into a dancefloor or set-up for a dinner setting plus a large upper deck aft that connects smoothly with the main inside dining area.

For the real wow factor, however, we must look to the main deck aft and the adjoining beach club. A 10,000-litre pool on the main deck is an innovative use of space, with steps leading down either side to the giant fold-down beach club.

With plenty of space for sunbeds and parasols on the swim platform, plus a chic indoor lounge with an espresso bar, the beach club/pool combination creates an outstanding area for a blissful close-to-the-water experience.
