BELLE ILE

Citterio Viel's interior architecture aboard this 2023 Custom Line creates a living environment where conversations flow as naturally as guests move between spaces. The design duo has orchestrated a social rhythm that begins in the main saloon, where oversized windows flood the space with light and frame ever-changing seascapes as backdrop to morning coffee or evening cocktails. Life aboard centers around the seamless connection between indoor and outdoor entertaining areas. The main deck configuration allows ten guests to gather as one group or naturally break into smaller conversations, with sight lines that keep everyone connected whether they're lounging inside or stepping onto the aft deck. Filippo Salvetti's exterior styling includes generous outdoor dining areas that become the heart of al fresco meals, where the 7.31-meter beam provides surprising stability for lingering over lunch as the yacht moves between anchorages. The social flow extends to how guests experience their days aboard. Morning gatherings migrate naturally from interior breakfast spots to sun-soaked deck areas, while afternoons find groups spreading across multiple zones without feeling disconnected from the larger party. The Ferretti Engineering Department's hull design ensures this 28.43-meter yacht moves through water with minimal disturbance to onboard life, allowing conversations to continue uninterrupted and meals to be served without concern for sea conditions. Five crew members manage the yacht's operations invisibly, their presence felt only in the seamless service that keeps glasses filled and spaces refreshed as guests move through their days. The 199-gross-ton yacht provides enough space for privacy when desired, yet maintains the intimate scale that keeps groups naturally connected throughout their time aboard BELLE ILE.
