Samurai is a 60.3 m motor yacht built by Alia Yachts in 2016 (refitted 2022), for 12 guests in 6 cabins with 15 crew. Charter from €445,000 per week in summer (Italy, Monaco and Sardinia); in winter from US$445,000 (Antigua, Bahamas and Saint Martin), plus expenses.
The flagship of Turkey’s Alia Yachts, with a glass-walled main deck and a master suite of nearly 90 square metres, a fine fit for a family that wants space, light and a quick chase boat.
Samurai was launched by Alia Yachts in 2016 as the Turkish yard's flagship. Omega Architects drew her lines and Redman Whiteley Dixon designed an interior that picked up a ShowBoats Design Award in 2017. She was shown to the public for the first time at the Monaco Yacht Show in 2019 and was refitted in 2022.
Light is the main idea indoors. Floor-to-ceiling glass wraps the salon and the dining area, so the sea stays in sight from almost every seat. Forward on the main deck, the full-beam master suite covers about 87 square metres, with a skylight and a separate sitting area. That is a generous share of a 60-metre yacht, and it is the space the couple at the head of a family trip will appreciate most.
Flexibility comes next. The four guest cabins on the main deck switch between a double bed and two singles, which suits a family whose mix of couples and children changes from one trip to the next, and an office on the bridge deck turns into a sixth cabin when needed.
At the stern, the transom folds down to widen the swim platform, and the beach club sits at water level with a gym whose glass panels close so it can be air-conditioned, plus a sauna and a steam room. Up on the sun deck there is a large Jacuzzi and a bar. For days out, a 12.5-metre Axopar Brabus chase boat gets you to beaches and lunch spots along the coast in no time.
Families or groups of friends up to twelve who want a modern, bright yacht with a standout master suite will feel at home, whether in the Mediterranean in summer or the Caribbean and Bahamas in winter. It works less well for groups in which several couples expect suites of equal size: the master is in a different league from the other cabins, and someone will notice.
