About BIG SKY
Description
Beautifully designed for charter, BIG SKY has a calm, serene ambience, huge living areas and a riot of watersports equipment.
View all yachts for charter
The full beam main lounge is exceptionally wide, with picture windows framing its entire length. A fresh, white, contemporary interior is complemented by plenty of natural light, helping give the impression of a far larger yacht. Guest areas are comfortable and informal, decorated with characterful touches collected on the yacht's travels to South-East Asia and Turkey.
The accommodation is divided between a full-beam master suite on the main deck, and three equal-sized en suite double cabins and a twin cabin on the lower deck. The master suite follows a calm, neutral colour scheme and includes a dressing area, en suite bathroom and chaise lounge window seat. The en suite twin cabin is made up of two pullman beds that can be converted to a double, or the beds can be removed to create space for a gym, office or children's playroom if required.
Perfectly set up for living outdoors, BIG SKY has a well-equipped sun deck with sun pads forward and sun loungers aft that will catch the sun at any time of day. Take a dip in the jacuzzi or head to the shaded swim-up bar mid-ships to sip on an ice-cold drink if the sun gets too hot. Alternatively make the most of the extensive beach club which forms the perfect launch pad for BIG SKY's impressive array of watersports equipment.
Guests can make the most of the exhilarating watertoys, relax in extreme comfort, or head ashore for a five-star beach BBQ, laid on by an attentive and creative crew.
