Who this yacht suits

AMARYLLIS is not a generic inventory pick. It is a better match when the client wants a flagship charter mood built around privacy, hosting, and status, a larger group day where deck flow matters, and a route shaped around Caribbean and Bahamas winter cruising.

Local route logic

The local decision is less about distance and more about timing. Around Bahamas and Mediterranean, AMARYLLIS should be planned with boarding point, lunch stop, swim time, and return window in one brief. In practice, match the yacht to the charter area before treating global availability as realistic.

Planning window

peak season dates, when cruising area, berth access, and crew availability should be checked early. For this yacht, confirm preferred dates, guest count, cabin needs, and cruising area together so the quote reflects the real plan. the best-looking option is not always the best route option once boarding point, lunch, and return timing are fixed.

Guest experience

For guests, the difference is felt in pace: where people sit, how lunch is handled, where swimming fits, and how the return feels. AMARYLLIS should be evaluated against that rhythm, not only against specs.

Shortlist logic

AMARYLLIS should be compared against at least one alternative if the brief is flexible. The useful difference may be cabin layout, crew style, speed, toys, berth access, or how naturally the yacht fits Bahamas and Mediterranean.

Broker caveat

Ask the broker to state the limitation as plainly as the advantage. For AMARYLLIS, the check should cover availability, owner approval where relevant, cruising area, APA, fuel, and whether the planned route still works in real weather.

Overview

The 257.32ft/78.43m Custom motor yacht 'AMARYLLIS’' was built in 2011 by the acclaimed German shipyard Abeking & Rasmussen. A highly luxurious superyacht, both her interior and exterior spaces have been styled by the award-winning Reymond Langton Design. Timelessly sophisticated, superyacht AMARYLLIS brings together the best of Belle Epoque, Art Deco, and Art Nouveau in order to set the scene for entirely memorable charter vacations.

Exterior Design

Featuring a midnight blue steel hull and white aluminium superstructure, AMARYLLIS' sweeping curves and structural detail provide her with a truly distinctive profile. Embracing a range of colours, Reymond Langton Design has ensured that the exterior spaces of AMARYLLIS are at once bright and relaxed. Offering an impressive variety of lounging and dining options across her five decks, guests have the chance to enjoy meals whilst facing seaward, or simply lounge on the swim platform which extends off the aft deck. Inspired by the Japanese approach to design, there are traces of ash, elm, and fumed oak to be enjoyed whilst outside. The main exterior area is unquestionably to be found on the aft bridge deck of AMARYLLIS, where a large table overlooked by glittering chandeliers and an adjacent bar allows guests to sample exceptional dishes whilst taking in an ocean breeze.

Interior Design

Bringing their characteristic style indoors, Reymond Langton Design have ensured that AMARYLLIS provides a wholly relaxed and luxurious experience. With their trademark meticulousness, the team have created a voluminous main salon, which benefits from custom-made sycamore wall panels, and plenty of overhead and recessed lighting. In the skylounge, the Macassar ebony furniture and warmer tones create an unrivalled ambience for indulging after a day out on the water, while the lavishly styled panoramic dining room is the perfect setting for elegant dinner parties. Ultimately, whether guests are socialising or unwinding in their stateroom, they can expect to be surrounded by a uniquely engaging decor.

Special Features

Boasting an elegant Schimmel Pegasus piano, the aptly named ‘piano lounge’ offers guests the chance to enjoy some after-hours cocktails in an appropriately glamorous setting. Entirely self-playing, guests are able to enjoy hours of beautiful music without having a virtuoso of their own. Another standout feature is the handcrafted limousine tender, which chaperones guests to AMARYLLIS ahead of their luxury charter vacation.

Performance Range

As a custom displacement yacht, AMARYLLIS features ‘at anchor stabilisers’ which work at zero speed, increasing onboard comfort whilst at anchor or on rough waters. With a cruising speed of 14 knots, a maximum speed of 16 knots and a range of 5,000nm from her 239,620litre fuel tanks, she combines outstanding engineering with supreme comfort.

Guest Accommodation

Comprised of 6 staterooms AMARYLLIS is capable of sleeping up to 12 guests with additional space for a discreetly accommodated crew of 23. Consistent with the Art Nouveau and Art Deco influences found in the social spaces, each of the suites are complete with soft taupe shades and warm tones. The VIP suite includes an automatic shoji screen to provide access to large panoramic views whilst the master suite, accessed through a dramatic curved lobby, comes with a full-beam study and desk carved from two extremely rare English woods - a perfect spot for attending to business whilst out on the water.
