Another gleaming day begins in your main deck master suite. Draw back the drapes and let tropical sunshine fill the room. After freshening up in his-and-hers en suites, sharing a marble shower room, and picking out your morning outfit from the walk-in wardrobe, it’s time for breakfast on the sundeck. Fresh fruit, waffles, eggs how you like them, fresh smoothies from the wet bar – however you love to start your day, the chef and crew will be delighted to oblige.

Now it’s toy-time, so you and your guests head down to the outsize swim platform ‘beach’ where the yacht’s three waverunners are moored in the inflatable dock and ready to delight. SeaBobs, kayaks, snorkel gear, and inflatable towables for the 5.5m (18ft) tender, GRAND ILLUSION delivers thrills and spills in abundance. Watch the fun from sea level on a sun lounger on the swim platform or relax in the main deck aft lounge.

Lunch is taken on the upper deck aft, shaded from the midday sun. Freshly caught and grilled fish, colourful salads, charcuterie and cheese, whatever you want, that’s what you’ll get. As the yacht cruises smoothly to the next amazing anchorage, you and your guests can chill together in the 10-person sundeck jacuzzi watching sports on the pop-up TV, kick back in the semi-circular sun lounge or top up your tan on the sun loungers aft with refreshment from the wet bar. Maybe you’d prefer a movie in the sky lounge’s convertible cinema?

With the anchor down, it’s time to head ashore, meet the locals and feel the relaxed tropical vibes that make these islands extra special. You’ve already briefed the captain and crew on your dinner preferences. You can indulge in local delicacies ashore, BBQ on the beach with the soft sand beneath your feet, dine beneath the stars on the sundeck as music and laughter fill the air, or celebrate something special with formal dining inside on the main deck. Either way, the occasion is perfectly set up with sundowner cocktails to toast another joyous day.
