ELA Yacht for Charter

Delivered in 2021 by the revered Dutch shipyard Heesen, ELA is a 49.8-metre motor yacht that exemplifies a masterful fusion of contemporary elegance, high performance, and guest-focused design. Previously named ALTEA, ELA is part of Heesen’s fast-displacement line—crafted with precision in lightweight aluminium, she showcases the brand’s hallmark of innovative naval architecture and smart engineering. With exterior styling by Omega Architects and sophisticated interiors by Cristiano Gatto Design, ELA embodies understated luxury, where every detail is tailored to elevate the onboard experience.

At just under 500GT, ELA boasts an impressive sense of volume, offering space that rivals much larger yachts. Her interior spaces exude warmth and modernity, defined by curvaceous organic shapes, textured leathers, and natural wood finishes. From the open-plan salon with floor-to-ceiling windows to the expansive sundeck adorned with a Jacuzzi and loungers, ELA invites guests to experience both tranquility and vibrant sociability in equal measure. Bespoke furniture, a calm palette enriched with pops of color, and Gatto’s thoughtful curation down to linens and perfumes create a sensory journey that is both refined and welcoming.

Designed to accommodate up to 12 guests across six impeccably styled suites, ELA is ideal for families and groups of friends alike. The main deck master suite and full-beam VIP stateroom set a benchmark in luxury, while four additional guest cabins on the lower deck maintain the same high standards. With a cruising range of 3,750 nautical miles and zero-speed stabilisers for supreme comfort at anchor, ELA is perfectly suited for long, leisurely voyages in the Caribbean or the West Mediterranean. Supported by a crew of nine and featuring a beach club, full gym, outdoor cinema, and extensive toy selection, ELA promises an exceptional charter experience where every moment is tailored to pleasure.
