The 154-foot (46.94m) superyacht STAR DIAMOND is a serene on-water retreat, offering the pinnacle of luxury. With exceptional volume for her size, STAR DIAMOND maximizes space for owners and guests, providing an abundance of areas for social gatherings and private relaxation. When considering the recent upgrades, substantial investments, and her unparalleled volume and deck spaces, STAR DIAMOND clearly stands out as an extraordinary value.

STAR DIAMOND's interior exudes a light, airy ambiance, with an elegant beach-house style. Adorned with the finest woods, marbles, and fabrics, her interior creates a soothing environment that melts away stress. The main salon is ideal for family time or entertaining guests, while the sky lounge, featuring an 80-inch theater screen and ample plush seating, is perfect for socializing, watching a movie, or catching the big game. The yacht's exterior spaces reflect a relaxed, casual luxury, inviting guests to unwind and enjoy the breathtaking views of the cruising destination.

STAR DIAMOND's spectacular sundeck is a standout, offering amenities typically found on larger yachts, including direct interior access. This expansive sundeck is the perfect spot to spend the day with family and friends, whether lounging on the sun pads, soaking in the Jacuzzi, enjoying drinks at the bar, or savoring a barbecue prepared by the chef.

Alfresco dining for twelve is available on the bridge deck aft, which also features a comfortable C-shaped seating area with four wicker chairs and ottomans. Even when the weather isn't perfect, this space can still be enjoyed thanks to see-through, windproof curtains.

STAR DIAMOND accommodates 10 guests in ultimate comfort across five luxuriously appointed staterooms. The full-beam master stateroom on the main deck offers unparalleled privacy. The owner's lounge, located on the starboard side, includes seating, an entertainment center, and a desk. The sleeping area on the port side features a plush king-size bed, and the master suite is completed with a luxurious en-suite bath, featuring both a shower and a Jacuzzi tub. The additional guest staterooms provide versatility, with two double-bed staterooms and two convertible twin beds, ensuring ample space for all.

Equipped with an array of tenders and toys, including four jet skis and a large slide, STAR DIAMOND was built for fun. Her expansive boat deck and garage provide easy and convenient access to all the toys, making her a true playground on the water. With the right ownership and charter management, STAR DIAMOND has proven to be a charter powerhouse, capable of covering her annual running costs. There is no other yacht in her class or price range that offers more value.
