## Lazzara 84 — Western Mediterranean Some yachts in the mid-eighty-foot range feel like a compromise. This Lazzara 84 doesn't: her interior volume, and above all her owner's accommodation, read like those of a considerably larger yacht. A refit completed in 2022 brought her joinery, systems and finishes back to a standard that shows in the details — the kind of condition you notice within thirty seconds of stepping aboard. The main salon is broad and generously glazed, with fine timber joinery, marble surfaces and skylights that keep the space bright through the day. The galley is a genuine talking point: a full country-kitchen layout built around a central island, sized for real cooking rather than reheating — which changes the rhythm of a charter day, particularly with a chef aboard. Accommodation is arranged over four cabins for eight guests. The owner's cabin is the standout: hotel-scale proportions, a walk-in wardrobe, and an en-suite with whirlpool tub, double shower and twin basins. Two further cabins offer queen-size beds, and a fourth a double bed, each with its own private bathroom — the kind of layout that lets two or three couples, or a family, share a week aboard without ever feeling on top of one another. Detailed bed configuration on request. Exterior living is where she earns her keep. Teak decks run throughout, with substantial lounging and sunbathing areas, and a flybridge fitted with a hot tub, a full wet bar, sunpads and enough seating that the whole guest complement can gather without anyone perching on a cushion edge. It is, quite simply, where most of the day gets spent. Her permanent crew handle the yacht discreetly and know her cruising grounds well — the Bay of Naples and Sicily, or Spain and the Balearics, depending on the season. Both offer the short hops and sheltered anchorages this format suits best. For the water, a 16-foot Walker Bay tender is set up for waterskiing, kneeboarding and towing the inflatables carried aboard. Fishing rods can be broken out from the tender or off the swim platform. On multi-day charters a three-seat jet ski comes with the yacht; on shorter day charters of four to eight hours, one can be hired in for you at additional cost. Available for charter in the Western Mediterranean. Enquire for availability, rates and itinerary suggestions.
