We’re speaking to Bluewater’s Bertrand Mattei, Head of Charter Marketing, to talk about one of his favourite spaces onboard a truly exceptional Benetti.
I’d like to share an experience I recently had on a stunning 37m 2023 Benetti.
I was fortunate enough to spend time onboard M/Y ALLURIA during a fam trip organised by the owner, and I was genuinely proud of how flawlessly the crew delivered the full charter experience.
For anyone who hasn’t stepped onboard as yet, ALLURIA feels calm, elegant, and reassuringly luxurious from the first moment.
Her design leans toward classic Benetti sophistication rather than trend-led styling, with soft neutral tones, generous use of light, and beautifully balanced proportions.
She has a welcoming, almost residential comfort that immediately puts guests at ease, making her ideal for longer charters or guests who value comfort as much as style.
ALLURIA is particularly well suited to families and multi-generational groups, though she also works very well for couples traveling together or relaxed groups of friends.
Her layout offers excellent separation between guest areas, generous cabins, and inviting communal spaces, allowing everyone to enjoy time together without ever feeling crowded.
The quality shows in the sense of volume, stability, and finish throughout the yacht.
The cabinetry, soft furnishings, and stonework all feel solid and timeless, and the flow between interior and exterior spaces is exceptionally well thought out.
Storage, headroom, and sound insulation are all subtle but telling indicators of Benetti’s experience in building yachts designed for real comfort at sea.
Are there particular features that consistently impress charter clients?
ALLURIA is easy to recommend because she delivers exactly what clients expect from a Benetti, space, comfort, and reliability.
Charter clients consistently comment on how spacious she feels for her length and how smooth and quiet she is underway.
Her layout, crew professionalism, and overall sense of ease onboard make her a safe and satisfying recommendation for a wide range of clients.
The crew onboard ALLURIA are highly attentive and naturally hospitable, creating a relaxed yet polished atmosphere throughout the charter.
They are particularly strong with family groups, adapting seamlessly to different age groups and preferences.
Their experience shows in the small details, from intuitive service to well-paced days that allow guests to truly switch off and enjoy the yacht.
ALLURIA offers excellent value through her volume, stability, and proven build quality.
Clients benefit from the space and comfort of a true displacement yacht, paired with a well-run charter operation and a trusted brand name.
For guests prioritising relaxation, space, and a refined onboard experience, she often outperforms more modern but less substantial alternatives.
The upper deck aft is without question my favourite spot onboard.
The large dining table is perfect for hosting long, leisurely lunches that effortlessly turn into dinners with loved ones, while the chaise longue nearby invites guests to stretch out, relax, and enjoy the views.
What really sets this space apart is how quickly it transforms.
In just a few seconds, it can convert from an elegant lunch setting into a relaxed lounge or even a lively disco-style setup, making it just as suited to sunset cocktails and dancing as it is to slow afternoons around the table.
Any favourite destinations or cruising styles she’s perfect for?
ALLURIA is a natural fit for the Caribbean, especially the St Martin, St Barts, and Anguilla triangle.
This is cruising at its best, short hops, stunning anchorages, and just the right mix of energy and escape.
Think shopping and dining in St Barts, barefoot beach days in Anguilla, and relaxed evenings at anchor off St Martin, all enjoyed from the comfort of a yacht designed for slowing the pace and savouring every moment.
ALLURIA is ideal for clients who value space, comfort, and a relaxed, elegant charter style, and who understand that real luxury is having nowhere else to be.
She’s especially well suited to families and experienced charterers who appreciate a yacht that feels calm, solid, and genuinely easy to live onboard.
The good news for brokers is that ALLURIA currently offers strong last-minute availability, and with her weekly rate freshly reduced from USD 190,000 to USD 160,000 (which is an exceptional rate for a yacht of this calibre and one that is very rarely seen).
She represents exceptional value in her category.
It’s the kind of opportunity that makes clients very happy and brokers look quietly brilliant, which, let’s be honest, is always the goal.
Thank you Bertrand for sharing MY ALLURIA with us.
