'La Belle' ~ the luxury Yacht - exclusive females ... !!

The ways of rich and famous are often different – they have lavish and exotic life style…. They own costly cars, private jets and luxury yachts with many special features and exclusively made.  Yachts are recreational boats. The term originated from the Dutch Jacht meaning "hunt". It was originally defined as a light fast sailing vessel used by the Dutch navy to pursue pirates and other transgressors around and into the shallow waters of the Low Countries.  There are Yacht clubs which allows only very rich people into their fold. Even among billionaire megayacht owners, there's competition to be the biggest and best.

‘and this is why I sojourn here; Alone and palely loitering; Though the sedge is withered from the lake,…… and  no birds sing.’ – lines from ‘La Belle Dame sans Merci’ meaning – ‘the beautiful lady without mercy’, a ballad written by the English poet John Keats. The poem is considered an English classic, stereotypical to other of Keats' works. It avoids simplicity of interpretation despite simplicity of structure.

Now this post is about a beautiful luxury yacht named ‘la belle’ and it is unique because ‘no boys allowed’ inside this luxury yacht, complete with Swarovski crystal chandeliers, gold mosaics, ice fountains and a spa !!!

MailOnline reports - You may have thought all superyachts were created equal. But according to one designer, there is a gap in the market for vessels targeted at the fairer sex. In case the world's most powerful women don't want to splash out on the regular millionaires' toys on the market, luxury designer Lidia Bersani has created the first luxury mega yacht with a female in mind. The sleek white and gold yacht, measuring an impressive 262ft, is targeted at female buyers and is designed using crystal, gold, fur and flowers. It is even named La Belle, which translates as 'the beauty'.

Luxury designer Lidia Bersani has created the first luxury mega yacht designed for a 'lady' and measuring 262ft in length.  The master cabin is unsurprisingly lavish with a round king size double bed and baldachin and its own terrace with panoramic views. The 80-metre superyacht is not for the faint hearted, or Laura Ashley lovers. It's a riot of opulent gold mosaics, mother of pearl, Swarovski crystal chandeliers, gemstones, onyx and bespoke wooden furniture.  The boat's design revolves around soft edges, smooth lines, floral patterns and a large amount of glass, crystal and bright white.

Lidia Bersani's website says of La Belle: '[The] Yacht is in distinctive Bersani Style, romantic and warm. The colors in white, ivory and gold are predominant. Interior is full of opulent and comfortable elements.' The vessel could comfortably sleep 12 guests in six deluxe cabins. If you get bored of sunning yourself on deck there are a few lounges, dining places and facilities for live music on board. The master cabin on the second deck is unsurprisingly decadent; with a round king size double bed and baldachin (a canopy that traditionally sits over a throne or tomb of someone important), private terrace, thick curtains, gold touches and floral carpeting. There are five other guest suites spread around the boat. If you get bored of sunning yourself on deck the yacht has lounges, dining places and facilities for live music.

In place of darts boards and computer games, you'll find a spa area with hyrdromassage pool, sauna, hamman, infrared sauna, snow room and ice fountains; small fitness club with outdoor Jacuzzi; library with fireplace; beauty centre, disco club, cinema – theatre, as well as a few bars.  'The idea is to equip this Super Yacht with ultra-modern stabilizing system and state of the art machinery and equipment,' says Lidia Bersani Luxury Design.  There are five decks and a lift to get you from one to another, as well as a helicopter landing pad on the roof... although a gold helicopter is not included

Of the price, Ms Bersani told MailOnline, 'Unfortunately we do not have yet the final price. The idea is to build the most luxurious yacht on the world, and the golden decorations, Swarovski crystals, and some precious stones which we would like to use, it will be not cheap, I am sure.' 

So,  interested in bidding for one !
