She has a total of 10 double cabins with large bunk-bed accommodation, and two owners' cabins. All cabins are en suite and feature panoramic windows and access to a mini balcony overlooking the sea. The bathrooms have sinks and vanity mirrors with soft, built-in down lights . The showers have hot and cold running water. Western style toilets are standard throughout.

The well stocked medical room is also on the lower deck. This is also where the engine room, compressors and generators are located. Our huge galley, large enough to cater to guests and crew, electrical systems and air conditioning units are also found here. The air conditioning system is central, using one of two massive units and ducted into each area of the boat. The system is designed so that if one unit fails, the other will kick in automatically, keeping you and the crew cool at all times.
All counters in the bathroom, cabins, and bars are made of solid wood. The food service counters feature hand-carved designs and ornamentation.

The lighting has been deliberately planned down to the last detail to show off the wood and to be easy on your eyes. It's all in the details.
