GRACE YACHT
The 16-passenger Grace Yacht Galapagos was given as a wedding gift to Prince Rainier and Princess Grace of Monaco from Aristotle Onassis, and the couple enjoyed their honeymoon aboard this very vessel.
A journey aboard the Grace Yacht gives you an opportunity to lie back in luxury and take a trip back in time as you enjoy one of the finest cruises available in the Galapagos Islands. One of the key points about The Grace is that it boasts a high crew-to-passenger ratio, spacious cabins and stylish lines. The friendly naturalists aboard have been carefully selected, are highly professional and are the most knowledgeable in the region, with an average of 15 years of experience guiding on the Galapagos Islands. Those who experience the yacht at first hand regularly comment that the service on board the Grace Yacht, coupled with the true feeling of a safari experience, is unlike anything that is currently offered in the Galapagos Islands.
The Grace Yacht is a swift, stable vessel that is both spacious and comfortable. The yacht has a unique stabilizer system which allows for smooth cruising between the Islands and enhances your journey. The recreational areas include an expansive lounge area, featuring luxurious sofas and chairs, plus a bar and entertainment system. Here guests will find the ideal place for briefings by the naturalist guides of the Grace Yacht plus a place to watch movies, have a drink, or simply relax. Dining on the Grace Yacht is excellent and can be enjoyed al fresco on deck. Whilst up on the sun deck there is a hot tub for you to relax in and watch the world sail by. Here you will also find plenty of reclining lounge chairs for sunbathing or for reading in the fresh air.
The Grace Yacht has 9 luxurious cabins split over 2 decks which are befitting of such an iconic vessel making this a true luxury Galapagos boat. On the Albert Deck you will find 2 Twin Suites and 2 Master Suites with ocean-view windows. The captain’s bridge is also located on this deck plus the al-fresco bar and lounge. The Monaco Deck features the Grace Kelly Suite, as well as interior lounge and the al-fresco dining area. On the Carolina deck are 4 Premium Staterooms (double and twin) with ocean-view port-holes. The Grace Yacht operates two unique 8-day Galapagos itineraries, which can be combined together to create a longer 15-day cruise.
It’s the ultimate in luxury cruising in the Galapagos islands.
