Ladyship

A DAY ON THE YACHT

LADYSHIP yacht charter deserves to be boarded in a luxurious marina near a big coastal city, rather than a small port. Start your holiday the right way and tell your local SuperYachts Croatia broker to have LADYSHIP wait for you in the Zadar marina, a place where excellent service meets exquisite panoramas of the beckoning Croatian Adriatic sea.

You can arrive to Zadar by plane, road or the sea; regardless of the means of transportation, you will be instantly surprised by the historic architecture and cultural heritage of this ancient city. Located on a fortified peninsula, Zadar dominated the region throughout the ages, leaving it rich with incredible treasures in form of palace squares, gardens, high walls, towers and battlements.

If you have time to spare, why not take a short walk around the old core of Zadar and experience firsthand the many different pleasures that this city offers. While LADYSHIP waits to be boarded, take a short walk in the old core and get acquainted with numerous artisan shops selling souvenirs, but also quaint cafes, museums, restaurants, and many other different tourist hotspots.

Keep in mind that it would be a shame to spoil your lunch by eating on land, seeing that you have a fully qualified Michelin-level chef aboard LADYSHIP yacht charter. This individual cannot wait to showcase the skills acquired through a long and fruitful career of working in some of the best restaurants on the continent.

When you have seen enough of Zadar, LADYSHIP will be waiting for just several meets from the main city square, with your dedicated crew handing out welcome champagne to you and your charter party. Do not worry about luggage, just follow your stewardess on a tour of the yacht, while the rest of the crew take your belongings to appropriate accommodations. After an all-inclusive tour, choose a space to sit and enjoy LADYSHIP as she takes you on an adventure of a lifetime.

The wider area of the Zadar archipelago is home to more than 300 islands, all of which have something unique and different to offer to yacht charter guests. You can choose the perfect island yourself or let the local know-how of your crew be the deciding factor in picking the perfect islands for your first day in Croatia.

If your choice falls on Dugi Otok island, know that this patch of land has plenty to offer to first-time visitors. Known for orchards, vineyards, and the incredible Saharun beach, Dugi Otok island is also home to the Telaščica nature park.

The cruise may take some time, during which you can relax with one of several amenities on LADYSHIP yacht charter. Take your place in the air-conditioned salon and relax in a comfortable seating area while watching your favorite game or climb aboard the flybridge and take in the slow-shifting Adriatic panorama.

During the entire cruise, you are free to call upon your crew to serve a variety of different drinks, like premium champagne, hand-made cocktails, local Croatian spirits or non-alcoholic smoothies, alongside excellent Michelin-level canapes. Once you arrive in the vicinity of Dugi Otok island, be sure that you will instantly fall in love with this incredible isle.

Many secluded golden beaches await curious travelers; here, privacy and peace will be guaranteed. While some of the crew prepare to anchor LADYSHIP yacht charter, the other will be at the stern, opening the beach club garage door, which hydraulically transforms into a wide swimming platform. This area is spacious enough for all the guests to stand, swapping water toys and stories, as they sip perfectly-chilled champagne.

Spend the first half of the afternoon enjoying the bounties of Dugi Otok island, until you start feeling hungry. Before lunch, choose your dining venue; savor the elevated panorama from the flybridge, the air-conditioned atmosphere of the interior dining salon or the informal vibe of the upper deck aft alfresco dining area.

Once you have chosen, prepare to taste your lunch, which could start with oysters on grill with creamy spinach and artichoke puree, continuing with beef wellington tarts with grill stuffed portabella mushrooms, followed by smoked haddock in Italian garlic wine sauce with spinach gnocchi. For dessert, delight in Choux Inaya & Pépites Cacao. After you have enjoyed every last bite of scrumptious Michelin-level food, move to the flybridge and sit in the jacuzzi, as your crew prepares cocktails.

During this time, LADYSHIP yacht charter will start to move towards Telaščica Nature Park. This incredible natural wonder sits at the backdoor of Kornati National Park, one of the most treasured Croatian parks. You could spend the rest of the day in Telaščica, preparing to enter Kornati the next day.

There are many things special and unique about Telaščica, like a chance to witness nature in its primordial form, without any distractions or traces of civilization. Swim in the clear sea and observe the many different species of fish, that freely move around the water of the park. Cruise beneath white cliffs that reach a height of over 150 meters and then bathe in aquamarine lagoons that look like a set of a Hollywood movie.

Explore the remnants of ancient architecture in some of the most beautiful environments in the Croatian Adriatic. Listen to the local advice of your charter crew and enjoy the most remote and beautiful parts of the park in a guided tour or roam the wilderness alone and discover incredible beauty in fields of colorful flowers, small patches of hinterland and magnificent panoramas.

Spend the day surrounded by the beauty of Telaščica Nature Park; it gets even more beautiful when the sun begins to set and all the colors of the spectrum begin to appear in the sky. As the evening unfolds, you may want to dine under the stars, because Croatia has some of the clearest skies in Europe and passive sky gazing is an incredible tool to elevate every dining atmosphere.

Sit with your charter party on the flybridge and enjoy a dinner menu similar to seared scallops with braised truffle barley, followed by lobster tails with parmesan and parsley crust and goat cheese, and basil stuffed chicken with mustard curry green beans. Finish with a terrific cold raspberry cream cheese pastries with hot cognac liqueur for dessert.

After a delightful meal, you can spend the rest of the evening in anyway you wish. Sit on the swimming platform and enjoy being close to the sea with a cocktail in your hands or opt for the jacuzzi and be massaged by hot streams and bubbles, as you enjoy the companionship of your charter party.

LADYSHIP yacht charter also offers a good opportunity to enjoy a group movie night in the main deck salon, thanks to a large lounge setup and a big flat-screen TV. Whatever you choose, your hard-working crew will always be by your side to assist in any request you may have.

YACHT CHARTER DINING

LADYSHIP yacht charter is equipped like a small hotel, when it comes to the capabilities of her galley. Firstly, know that your yacht chef is more than capable of producing mouthwatering delights and culinary masterpieces that will transform the way you experience luxury yacht cuisine.

From the plating to the service, everything will be perfect. When you start experiencing all the different scents and tastes, you will be transported to a world where there are no culinary boundaries, just magnificent sensory inputs, which will elevate your yacht vacation in Croatia to a level beyond imagining.

Rely on your chef to take your senses on a journey from which you will return as a changed person, one that will experience the world of gastronomy in a different way. No longer will food have the meaning of just nourishing you; it will become a way to get in touch with yourself, as well as the country you are visiting.

Many yacht charter guests prefer tasting authentic local cuisine when they come to Croatia, and you may want to do the same. If that is the case, be sure to fill out your preference sheet beforehand and prepare the taste the essence of what the Croatian Adriatic sea is all about.

Firstly, the incredible freshness of the seafood will amaze you, as your chef prepares and grills many different kinds of fish, like grouper, tuna or seabass. Crustaceans will also be on the menu; you have not lived until you try scampi in a white-wine reduction sauce known as “buzara” as well as a broth made out of mussels, a Croatian specialty.

Lobsters and crabs can also be grilled and served in a “surf`n`turf” combination, while appetizers may include the famous black risotto, made from wild herbs and squid. Croatian cuisine is not just about the sea; there are also many different sources of food that are not tied to the water. This includes the interior hinterland of the Istrian peninsula, which is famous for its variety of “wild food” like asparagus, chestnuts, truffles and other mushrooms.

Finally, Croatia has a lot to offer when it comes to drinks; Croatian wines are some of the best in the world, to which many different international awards bare witness. Let your competent chef pair the dishes with different wines or ask your crew to hire a professional sommelier which will introduce you to all the different aspects of Croatian enology.

YACHT MAIN DECK

LADYSHIP yacht charter has a very straightforward profile, that aged like fine wine. Few are the chances to enjoy such classic lines and traditional naval architecture. One thing is for certain – when Heesen builds a superyacht, they build it to last.

Starting from the main deck aft, guests can relax in the alfresco veranda where they can enjoy meals or admire the panorama. Since this area is compact and does not serve a secondary purpose, stepping inside the main deck salon is necessary to experience LADYSHIP`s design.

The interior of LADYSHIP yacht charter is a blend between traditional interior architecture and contemporary design; these two opposing forces meet in the middle and create a stylish atmosphere that is both luxurious and subtle.

Each space in the interior is different and unique from every other space; there is no single art direction; instead, each room and cabin area is treated individually. This way of yacht designing is something that is not a common occurrence in the yacht design community, but Heesen pulls it off marvelously. There are many different kinds of ornaments and accessorizes spread out through the different decks, enabling guests to experience different levels of luxury.

Yacht charter accommodation: main salon & dining area

When it comes to the main deck salon, a staircase to port connects the main deck with the lower deck guest cabin near the beach club, while to starboard a quaint corner-placed lounge area invites guests to unwind in the luxurious atmosphere of the salon. A small chess table presents an opportunity to try to beat the yacht`s champion.

Moving forward, a grand bar in a shape of a crescent moon, with several barstools, will definitely be one of the more popular locations on your holiday. There will constantly be a crew member ready to serve drinks to guests at the bar, or teach them a couple of handy tricks when it comes to preparing handmade cocktails.

In the center of the salon, a very angular C-shaped sitting arrangement faces a pop-up TV and presents an opportunity for guests to enjoy movie nights together, with refreshing beverages and hand-made popcorn made using local Croatian butter.

Forward from this entertainment area, guests will observe the lavish interior dining area, with a long table able to sit your entire charter party comfortably. From here, two staircases lead to the lower deck and the upper deck salon respectively. Lastly, a practical day head is located to port, right next to the entrance to the main deck master suite.

The design of the salon incorporates many different shades of white, on both reflective and matte surfaces, creating an atmosphere that reminds of fast-moving mists or clouds. The texture of the floor and the furniture can account for this, seeing that they are both comfortable and plush; just like clouds. There are intermittent breaks in the white colour pattern of the salon in the form of lacquered wood cabinetry and other carpentry decorations and accessorizes, like narrow wall panels or furniture framing.

Yacht charter accommodation: main deck master suite

Guests can enter the main deck master suite starting from the portside corridor, which passes through a very spacious walk-in wardrobe. The main part of the suite consists of a big, centrally-placed berth, with cabinetry and nightstands placed on either side.

When it comes to amenities, a big armchair on the portside offers guests a chance to relax while getting ready for a fine dining experience aboard LADYSHIP yacht charter. There is also a full-sized table beneath the starboard window, which gives it plenty of natural light for reading or enjoying breakfast in your cabin with a marvelous view.

The decor of the suite mostly uses beige and crème colors to accentuate daylight, with several dark brown carpentry finishes, mostly concentrated around the berth headspace. The ensuite bathroom is equipped like a mini-spa; a bathtub with massage jets, as well as a shower cabin, allow guests to fully relax or just rinse the salt off after a swim. There is also a head and a bidet, with two sinks also being a practical addition.

YACHT UPPER DECK

The upper deck aft is reserved for a long stern bench, that follows the entire length of the aft section. Its purpose is clear; to provide seating in a glorious Adriatic atmosphere to guests of LADYSHIP yacht charter. There are two wide tables and movable chairs as well, which means you can also enjoy a fine dining experience in this area.

The unofficious design of this upper deck section means that it is perfect for relaxing drinks as well as dining; your expert crew will always be moving between the galley and the upper deck aft, bringing with them delightable delicacies, refreshing beverages, and premium champagne. Since the upper deck aft can be covered with a bimini and completely shielded from the sun, guests can enjoy this area any time of day.

To port, a practical second day head means that guests do not need to go all the way to the lower deck cabins to wash their hands before a meal. Next to the day head, also to port, a staircase leads to the sundeck, while the staircase to starboard takes guests down into the main deck salon.

Stepping into the sky lounge, guests can immediately sit down at the charming sofa arrangement to port and admire the design of this interior space. Right across the sofa is another dedicated bar with accompanying barstools.

This is a perfect addition to the sky lounge because your crew can serve drinks to guests allocated all across the deck; some might want to enjoy the alfresco atmosphere, while others stay in the interior, but all of them will be served from this beautiful polished wooden bar.

The floors in the sky lounge are bare, with wooden floorboards mimicking the teak on the exterior deck. Thanks to the subtle, but tasteful décor, the entire sky lounge exudes a strong dose of exclusivity and style.

An equal amount of surfaces are covered in brown polished wood finishes, while the other is covered by eggshell white glossy wall and ceiling panels. A design like this creates a subtle dynamic between the overlapping colors, extending the natural feeling tied to the sea and bringing it straight into the sky lounge.

Before leaving the sky lounge, guests will have a chance to sit at a full-length business desk, which can give the sky lounge a corporate feel. This could potentially be a good place for hosting a corporate yacht charter with your company, by holding presentations and meetings, with drinks being served at the bar; it is a perfect blend of business and pleasure.

The sky lounge is connected with the helm station via a long hallway. On the port side of the hallway, a quaint double cabin has the most unique views of the entire yacht.

Yacht charter accommodation: upper deck double cabin

This double cabin is more compact than its lower deck counterparts, but what it lacks in leg space it makes up for the most brilliant views in the entire vessel. The portside panorama is spectacular, thanks to a wide and long window located just beneath the queen-sized berth.

There is a single nightstand on the side opposite the window because the berth is strictly nestled against the wall. The window also supplies the cabin with massive amounts of natural light, so you will be able to sunbathe, even if you just lay on the berth. Besides the berth, this cabin is also equipped with a standard closet, as well as an ensuite bathroom with a shower cabin, a sink, and a head.

YACHT FLYBRIDGE

Arriving from the upper deck aft, the flybridge aboard LADYSHIP yacht charter is a personification of an out-of-this-world luxury experience, that can only be felt if you decide to book this yacht with SuperYachts Croatia.

The stairs are located on the port side, whilst a small lounging nook is located starboard. The coup de grace of the flybridge is definitely the costume-made jacuzzi, positioned on the stern. This jacuzzi is the prime reason why LADYSHIP yacht charter is to be considered a superyacht, offering unparalleled experiences of luxury and enjoyment, coupled with 5-star service from your hard-working crew.

Thanks to a mobile bimini, the jacuzzi can stay protected from the sun and provide a shaded environment; when the sun goes down, your crew can remove the bimini, allowing guests to enjoy the magnificence of a Croatian sunset, as well as the starry sky in the evening. Forward from the jacuzzi, there are L-shaped sofas on both the port and starboard sides, with a helm station in the middle.

These sofas are perfect for leisurely enjoyment while LADYSHIP yacht charter is underway and you can comfortably watch as the panorama slowly goes by. The centrally-placed helm station at the tip of the flybridge makes steering and maneuvering LADYSHIP yacht charter a very smooth experience.

Because the wheel is centered, and not leaning to either side, this provides better visibility in steering, as well as an overall better “feeling of movement” of the yacht.

YACHT LOWER DECK

The lower deck of LADYSHIP yacht charter is where most of the guests will be accommodated, in one of 4 well-appointed cabins. Three cabins in total (2 double and 1 twin) are located amidship in the lower deck, while the 4th twin cabin is positioned in an unusual location.

Yacht charter accommodation: lower deck aft twin cabin

One of the most unique characteristics of this awesome yacht is the twin cabin that stands out above all other cabins in the SuperYachts Croatia catalogue. This lone twin cabin is located towards the stern of the lower deck and is accessible through the main deck staircase, that connects the beach club with the main deck.

This means that this cabin has its own private entrance, alongside plenty of privacy and peace. These attributes mean that this accommodation can be used for those guests who do not like to be interrupted while resting, or for kids who want to be far away from their parents.

The simple and minimalistic design of this twin cabin does not mean that it lacks luxurious finishes or stylish touches, on the contrary; each berth has a mirror above its headspace, seemingly creating an illusion of a much bigger space.

Next, the wide porthole fills this space with plenty of natural light during the day, creating an inviting interior, where guests would want to spend time. There is also a dedicated ensuite bathroom, with a shower cabin, a head and a sink.

Yacht charter accommodation: amidship twin cabin

When compared to its counterpart in the aft section of the lower deck, the amidship twin cabin is definitely more stylized. There are still some similarities, like the mirrors behind each of the berths, but there is more space in general, and the twin berths are also a bit wider than in the aft twin cabin.

Rich textures, colors and details adorn this space, with artworks also in place to make this space more appealing to guests. Light beige and crème colors are the decorational mainstays of this space, which suits nicely with the overall style of LADYSHIP yacht charter.

The porthole also supplies this cabin with natural light, and in combination with the rest of the details and accessories, makes for an inviting accommodation, for both adults and children. This twin is also equipped with an ensuite, containing a shower cabin, a head and a sink.

Yacht charter accommodation: amidship double cabin

This double cabin is similar to the aft twin cabin, mainly due to its modern design, complimentary use of colors and smart space arrangement. The centrally-placed queen-sized bert has nightstands on either side of the berth, with plenty of storage space all around the cabin.

There is even a compact table, right beneath the starboard portholes, which will allow guests to read, do some business, eat breakfast or just fix their makeup, before an entertaining evening aboard LADYSHIP yacht charter.

When it comes to the colours, the dominant ones are definitely beige and light brown, with traces of white. This makes the interior seem warm and inviting, whilst the somewhat streamlined and minimalist approach to décor creates an atmosphere similar to a compact 5-star hotel room.

Yacht charter accommodation: amidship VIP stateroom

The VIP stateroom on the lower deck resembles the main deck master suite in many ways, like having a day sofa on the starboard side, a perfect place to relax, while your significant others find the ideal attire a fine dining experience aboard LADYSHIP yacht charter.

The queen-sized berth is placed in the centre of the stateroom; with sided edges, it provides more leg room in the cabin, while also making the berth look more unique. There are nightstands on both sides of the berth, with mirrors behind them, while the berth headspace is decorated with glossy wood wall panels and an art piece; this arrangement extends onto the ceiling and creates an impression of more headroom overall.

Because this VIP stateroom is full-beam, it benefits immensely from having port holes on either side of the cabin. Thanks to this, the space stays illuminated during the day, while also providing good views in the evening.

YACHT BEACH CLUB & SWIMMING PLATFORM

The beach club and swimming platform aboard LADYSHIP yacht charter are unique because this whole area closes when the yacht is underway. Once anchored, the hydraulic swim platform opens, to reveal a tender garage and a dedicated beach club area, which can be used for a multitude of purposes, once all the toys and tenders are launched.

Guests usually like to sit on movable chairs and enjoy drinking cocktails served by the competent charter crew, as they watch other members of the charter party have fun on the water.

Also, it is often that some of the guests request massages near the water`s edge, to feel the tranquil and soothing effect of the healing Croatian Adriatic sea. In this case, the crew hires a professional massage therapist to come and perform hot stone, deep tissue, aromatherapeutic or sports massages for guests in need of a good relaxation session.

Because the hydraulic garage door doubles as a swimming platform, guests will also have an opportunity to jump or switch water toys from this wide area, or just soak their feet while admiring the magnificent panorama. There are also safety railings, as well as a swimming ladder so that the water is accessible to guests of all backgrounds.

YACHT WATER TOYS & WATER SPORTS

When it comes to water toys, LADYSHIP yacht charter will definitely surprise charter guests with an extensive list of different playthings. There are some guests who do not love to spend time in the water by splashing and speeding over the waves, but rather enjoy a quiet and peaceful fishing session.

This is possible on LADYSHIP, because, thanks to the local know-how of your crew, you will always have the best fishing spots available. If you do manage to catch a fish, your dedicated yacht chef will gladly prepare it for you.

Two jet skis will provide plenty of excitement and adventure for guests hungry for some adrenaline. In between rides, you can approach the swimming platform and take a sip from a cocktail that will be waiting for you, before venturing out into the shimmering Croatian Adriatic sea.

A kayak will offer an opportunity to get acquainted with the stillness and the beauty of the sea, while still having enough mobility to explore the coastline surrounding LADYSHIP yacht charter. The kayak is the best way to find the perfect private beach and enjoy it for a short duration, before returning to the sea and searching for other interesting things along the shoreline.

There are also two stand-up paddleboards, which can be used in a manner similar to the kayak, with an added bonus of having the ability to sunbathe on the SUP or to practice your balance while paddling.

By using the tender, your expert yacht crew will tow any guests if they want to have fun on waterskis, wakeborads or the Jobe towable toys. There will also be 12 sets of snorkeling equipment, enough for the entire charter party to take to the sea in one big group and enjoy the treasures of the Adriatic. Share experiences with your closest friends and family members, and create unforgettable memories under the sea.

Finally, kids will absolutely adore the Aquaglide, which is a synonym for a really big slide that is mounted on the sundeck of LADYSHIP yacht charter. Allowing for countless hours of fun, the Aquaglide is a safe and easy way to enjoy the water, without the need of going to an aquapark. While the children play, the parents can relax, knowing that one of the crew is keeping an eye out for their safety.
