AD ASTRA 80
€65,000 - €85,000 / WEEK
S/Y AD ASTRA, the newest flagship from Fountaine Pajot, represents the future of luxury sailing—where superyacht comfort meets innovative design and unparalleled spaciousness. Crafted with elegance, balance, and performance in mind, AD ASTRA offers an extraordinary charter experience across every deck and detail. At the stern, the yacht’s layout revolves around an impressive beach club, accessed by a graceful flight of steps leading down to a platform positioned just above sea level. This area becomes a haven for swimmers, divers, and watersport lovers, offering a spacious water-level retreat for relaxation or activity. The aft cockpit itself is a vast social hub, featuring a generous dining table, plush sunbeds, and multiple seating areas perfect for hosting, lounging, or enjoying meals crafted by the onboard chef. On each side, AD ASTRA features elevated fold-down balconies—positioned above sea level rather than at the water’s edge. When opened, these terraces provide elevated viewpoints and additional lounging space, enhancing airflow, natural light, and the stunning vistas without compromising safety or comfort. They effectively create two unique “side terraces” that expand the already impressive cockpit footprint. Forward, guests will find a beautifully designed front cockpit, complete with a dedicated bar and an expansive sunbed that hides a luxurious Jacuzzi underneath. This space is ideal for sunbathing, enjoying a refreshing soak, or simply relaxing while taking in panoramic views of the horizon. The flybridge serves as an additional full deck—an elevated open-air retreat with a sweeping wrap-around sofa that accommodates large gatherings with ease. Equipped with a full bar and plancha grill, it provides the perfect setting for alfresco dining, sunset celebrations, or admiring the stars in comfort. Inside, the galley-down configuration creates a serene and spacious saloon, designed for relaxed evenings and effortless elegance. Deep starboard sofas and stylish free-standing seating to port, each paired with chic cocktail tables, offer ideal settings for reading, socializing, or enjoying onboard entertainment. Floor-to-ceiling wrap-around windows ensure the sea remains the centerpiece from every angle. A standout feature aboard AD ASTRA is her Silent Night capability, allowing guests to enjoy peaceful evenings and early mornings with minimal generator noise—enhancing comfort, serenity, and the connection to nature. This eco-luxury element elevates onboard living to a truly premium experience. A dedicated professional crew of five brings hospitality to the highest level. With refined service, warm personalities, and an instinctive understanding of guests’ wishes, they ensure every moment aboard AD ASTRA becomes a cherished memory. S/Y AD ASTRA redefines luxury sailing—innovative, serene, and meticulously crafted for unforgettable journeys across the Greek seas.
