SANTOSHA is a 56.7-metre motor yacht built by the Dutch shipyard Heesen, delivered in 2024 as the first example of the yard’s stunning new 57-metre series. Her exterior was designed by Omega Architects and her interiors by Harrison Eidsgaard, with the two studios working together to produce a yacht of both striking visual presence and genuinely refined living quality. She was named winner of the 2025 BOAT Design & Innovation Outstanding Exterior Design award and the Superyacht Awards for Semi-Displacement Motor Yachts over 50 metres, an outstanding double for a yacht still in her first full season on the charter market.nnThe name SANTOSHA is Sanskrit for contentment, and it reflects the overall character of the experience she delivers on board. Her scoop-shaped stern, concave superstructure lines and large glass windows throughout create both a striking appearance and a genuinely light, airy interior that feels expansive and calm in equal measure. Floor-to-ceiling windows carry natural light deep into every space, and Harrison Eidsgaard’s refined interior design pairs precise, contemporary finishes with warmth and comfort.nnAccommodation sleeps 12 guests across six luxurious cabins. The main deck master, positioned forward with views in multiple directions from large panoramic windows, is the standout space on board. Her impressive top speed of 22.7 knots and a shallow draft of just 2.3 metres make SANTOSHA ideal for island-hopping itineraries in destinations like The Bahamas, where access to shallower anchorages sets the best charters apart from the rest.nnZero-speed stabilisers ensure exceptional comfort both at anchor and underway, and her combination of multiple award-winning design, Heesen’s build quality and a completely fresh delivery means SANTOSHA is one of the most exciting and coveted charter yachts currently available on the market.
SANTOSHA won both the BOAT Design & Innovation award and the Superyacht Awards in her first full season, a remarkable achievement.

The exterior deck spaces of Santosha are laid out for the full range of superyacht charter experiences. An expansive aft deck provides a natural gathering point for meals and aperitifs, while the upper deck and sun deck above deliver progressively more sweeping views across the water.
