RIVIERA LIVING

When stepping aboard this Princess 35m on our day of filming, I was very impressed with how spacious this yacht feels. On some yachts this could make you feel lost, but here the generosity in space is matched with high quality interior finish, from the fendi sofa to the balanced color scheme. This gave me a comfortable feeling of being in a chic but still cozy place. 

For me it feels like I was on a 40m yacht, yet she is compact and easy to maneuver, the captain said, which is great to get a mooring in sought after marinas such as Saint Tropez and Porto Cervo in the high season. 

This yacht is in turn key condition, you can jump right on it to start an early season. Just bring your suitcase, all equipment will stay on board. 

The wow factor in the saloon is definitely the balcony with the side glas doors giving you a spectacular view of the sea. Then I realized how tall the saloon windows are and how high the ceiling is.

The master cabin on the main deck is  one of a much larger yacht and with the high quality finishes lives up to that feeling in reality. The bathroom is well laid out and there is a good separation between his and hers arrears with office space, make up table and two walk in wardrobes. You really feel the full beam of 7.30m here.

On the flybridge you can again feel the beam of 7.3m and I found nicely separated areas each serving a relaxing purpose. You have the well equipped bar, the huge dinging table to easily sit 10 guests, as well as the Jacuzzi to bubble up your game, and then on further to the bow you have a nice L shaped sofa to participate in the cruising experience and comfortably see the course the yacht is taking.

There are two large sunbathing areas, one lounge terrace in the front where you are “throning” over the sea, overlooking the bow of the yacht. Yet the mooring area with anchor equipment is well separated from the guest area. Here you really feel the grandezza of this yacht.

To avoid roasting in the sun all day, there are various shading solutions — from the automatic sunshade integrated into the hardtop to the high-quality, sturdy sun umbrellas on the foredeck lounge.

This is where true Riviera living vibes kick in — champagne, please!
