OLIVIA is a 37 metre Gulf Craft from 2023, a bright, spacious and genuinely recent tri deck motor yacht that makes relaxed, easy work of the clear water of the Mediterranean and the Riviera. She looks after twelve guests across six cabins with a crew of eight, and her appeal is immediate: the generous volume of a larger yacht, finished in soft, warm tones with glass drawn close to the sea on every deck, paired with the calm, attentive service that a full crew allows. For a family or a group of friends who want space, light and comfort on a yacht that still feels current and well cared for, she is a considered and welcoming choice from the first morning to the last.
Her point of difference is that sense of volume and light spread across three full decks. Gulf Craft builds yachts that feel open and uncluttered, and OLIVIA carries that into living spaces and deck areas that flow freely from one to the next, so the whole party can gather together or find a quiet corner of their own. She makes comfortable, unhurried passages between bays and settles into a sheltered anchorage with real poise, and a crew of eight keeps every part of the day running smoothly, from the first swim off the stern to a long dinner under the stars. The result is a yacht that feels generous and composed rather than showy, with the room and the attention to make a full week on the water feel effortless and calm.
Life in the open air spreads across her decks, and it centres on the sun deck. Raised above the yacht and open to the sky, it carries a jacuzzi set into the deck with soft sun pads alongside, the natural gathering point for a long afternoon in the sun and for sundowners as the light drops over the bay. A deck below, the bridge deck sets out alfresco dining and soft seating with a clear view over the water, while the main deck aft gathers further seating a few steps from the sea and the foredeck gives a broad run of sun pads away from the party. At the stern a beach club opens the yacht to swimming and to the tender and toys, so there is always a place to be in the sun or close to the water.
Inside, the mood is bright, warm and contemporary, finished in soft timber and pale upholstery with large windows that keep the sea in view from every seat. The main salon is a comfortable, open living space with deep sofas and a low table, flowing forward into an elegant formal dining area set beneath soft overhead light, so the whole party can gather in one bright, sociable room that opens aft to the deck. A second, more intimate salon on the bridge deck gives a quieter place to settle with the sea close by, and the generous glass throughout gives the interior an airy, relaxed feel, a calm counterpoint to the long days spent out on deck and in the water, welcoming by day and snug once the evening comes.
Accommodation is arranged over six cabins for twelve guests, set below the main deck where the motion is gentlest. The master suite takes a generous, private position with a wide bed, warm joinery and its own bathroom, while a VIP cabin, further double cabins and a twin look after the rest of the party, each quiet and comfortable with their own facilities. It is a flexible plan that suits two or three families or a group of friends travelling together, the twin ready for children or younger guests sharing, every cabin finished to the same bright, modern standard. Spacious, calm and attentively crewed, OLIVIA is a relaxed and genuinely comfortable way to charter the Mediterranean with the whole party kept close.
