Luxury has long been a defining feature in the breathtaking Maldives, an archipelago synonymous with lush resorts and private villas. Yet, amidst this affluent landscape, an evolution is cropping up, whispering a new narrative of what luxury entails. That whisper’s source? SIX & SIX PRIVATE ISLANDS, an ambitious endeavour fuelled by the vision of reimagining island living through continuity, ownership, and long-term living.
The Maldives has long been approached as a symphony of arrival, departure and return. Yet, these timeless echoes have started to evolve into a gentler cadence. To an increasing number of travellers, the islands have become more than a holiday destination; they have become an extension of their lives. And with this shift in perspective, the expectation of continuity over novelty gains prominence, ushering in an era defined by persistence, not transience.
Indulge in the magnificence of Italian craftsmanship with the Baglietto motor yacht ‘New Master’, now available through the new central agency of Anastasiya Myslivets and Julia Skop from Smart Yachts. Originally crafted in 2001 in Baglietto’s La Spezia shipyard, this beauty offers a captivating blend of aesthetic perfection and remarkable engineering.
Armed with a steel hull and an aluminium superstructure, New Master has consistently maintained an exceptional standard, thanks to the diligence of her only private owner. Owing to its never-been-chartered status, the yacht offers a certain exclusivity - a blank canvas ripe for an interior refit.
Coziness mingles with grandeur within the New Master, with interiors designed by Elisabetta Ruggiero, featuring delightful spots for relaxation and recreation. The main deck houses a stylish saloon, a dining zone, and a television area, while a skylounge sets the scene for an undisrupted view of the ocean on the upper deck.
