ALHAMBRA is a real treat. This 35m (116ft) yacht is a handsome classic with an aristocratic pedigree, built and finished to the highest standards with exquisite details that will add a touch of historic glamour to your yachting holiday. Brought up to contemporary standards of luxury in an extensive programme of refit works a few years ago, her gorgeous interior is a tasteful blend of modern styling and original features.

She’s designed to host up to 10 overnight guests in a five-cabin layout with a warm, welcoming feel of comfortable elegance throughout. One notable feature is a pair of modern fin stabilisers that can smooth her motion on the water at sea, anchored or in harbour.

There’s ample open-air living space up on the sun deck where you’ll find a spacious seating and dining area around a big table, a sociable cluster of C-shaped sofas, a sit-up bar, and a catering area with a teppanyaki table as well as a barbecue grill. Awnings above provide plenty of shade when required. Another great feature is the cinema system, with a proper projector screen, for movie nights under the stars.

She has a lovely al fresco dining area on the main deck aft, where the views out over the sea are framed by solid teak capping rails and the sculpted mullions that support her upper deck – a nice touch of nautical tradition. Covered companionways lead forward on both sides of the main deck from aft deck to foredeck, where you can step up onto a broad expanse of sunpads for secluded relaxation.

When she’s anchored, an elegant passerelle leads aft and down from double doors concealed in her stern to a bathing platform. This also provides a good launch pad for her fleet of small craft and a safe, easy place to step in and out of her 6m guest tender for transfers between ship and shore. Watersports toys on board includes a jetski, a Liftfoil, a paddleboard, a canoe, and a second RIB.

The main deck lounge is smart and elegant but relaxed, with an open plan layout and a feel of ample space. A palette of neutral tones offsets the fine, original walnut finish. Large, curved picture windows frame the sea views beautifully while letting in plenty of natural light. There’s good separation between lounge and dining areas, and an easy flow from the lounge out onto the main deck aft.

The master suite is a full-beam cabin located amidships on the lower deck, with a sofa and office desk flanking the king size double bed. There’s ample stowage space in three wardrobes and a bathtub plus a separate shower in the en suite master bathroom. The other four guest cabins are a VIP double up forward on the main deck level with windows on three sides, a double tucked behind the wheelhouse on the upper deck, a spacious double on the lower deck, and a twin-bed cabin in the stern. All of these have private en suite bathrooms.
