SERENITY is a beautifully considered 40.5-metre motor yacht built by IAG Yachts and delivered in 2016, a tri-deck yacht that redefines the luxury charter experience with an exquisite blend of performance, elegance and family-friendly practicality. Conceived through close collaboration between her owner and a hand-picked design and build team, and shaped by years of multi-generational family boating, she was created to be as welcoming to families as she is impressive to charter guests, and following a comprehensive refit in 2023 she presents in superb condition with new marble accents, plush furnishings and striking artwork. Her exterior styling and interior are both the work of the acclaimed British designer Evan K. Marshall, with naval architecture by Axis Group Yacht Design, and she is built on a semi-displacement GRP hull that delivers smooth, stable passages, cruising comfortably at 12 knots with a top speed of around 17 knots. A rare and thoughtful feature is a lift serving all four decks, making the entire yacht accessible to guests of all ages and mobility levels. Her interior offers wonderfully versatile spaces for relaxing and socialising, with ambient lighting able to set any tone, fabric-panelled walls and expertly constructed furniture lending an air of quiet luxury throughout. The main saloon is open plan to the formal dining table, and doors lead out to an inviting aft deck with a statement bar counter, while a deck above reveals a second skylounge with a large L-shaped sofa, a coffee table and a cocktail bar framed by panoramic views. Life on deck is exceptional and geared towards fun. On the sun deck, a Jacuzzi with a waterfall feature takes pride of place, and the space aft of it can be flooded and transformed into a safe splash pool for young children, a wonderful touch for family charters. The cockpit is equipped with a sophisticated blue-lit bar and offers alfresco dining for up to ten with panoramic views, and a beach club, swim platform and generous array of water toys deliver endless enjoyment at the waterline. Accommodation is arranged for up to 12 guests in six elegant en-suite cabins. The supremely spacious full-beam master suite resides on the main deck and benefits from his-and-her bathrooms, two private balconies and direct, discreet access to the galley, while a generously sized VIP suite on the upper deck and four further double and convertible cabins, each with independent climate control, drop-down televisions and its own audiovisual system, complete a flexible, family-friendly layout. A professional crew of seven ensures a relaxed, seamless and highly attentive charter experience. SERENITY cruises the Caribbean and Bahamas, from the Virgin Islands to the Leeward and Windward chains, offering warm, sun-soaked island-hopping itineraries, and gives charter guests a rare combination of a versatile family-focused layout, a genuinely accessible four-deck design with a lift, a playful sun deck with a convertible children’s pool and a warm, refined Evan K. Marshall interior aboard one of the most inviting charter yachts of her size on the market. Thoughtful touches abound throughout, from the practical, commercial-grade galley with its high-quality appliances to the generous, well-appointed crew quarters that allow her professional team to deliver seamless service while preserving guest privacy. Whether hosting a large family gathering or an intimate group of friends, SERENITY strikes a rare balance between refined luxury and genuine, relaxed liveability, making every day on board effortless and memorable.
