The Bahamas is a seductive yachting destination with hundreds of remote islands, cays, and idyllic anchorage spots. HELIOS, a 92-foot Lazzara motor yacht, can be your home away from home while cruising these tropical waters. Embarking on a Bahamas yachting adventure aboard HELIOS offers an unparalleled luxury experience.
The Yacht | HELIOS
Built-in 2012 by Lazzara with a recent 2019 refit, HELIOS is a sleek yacht that demands attention. This yacht is one of the few American-made, express-style yachts over 90′ currently offered for charter. Since HELIOS only draws a 5-foot draft, it is the perfect option for chartering in the Bahamas. Moreover, the yacht has an updated stabilization system to keep you comfortable throughout your charter.
The air-conditioned salon is bright and inviting. Outside, enjoy a cool drink and a snack at the foredeck table while looking for dolphins or watching the sunset.
Accommodations
HELIOS accommodates eight guests in 4 cabins. There’s one king, two queens, and one twin.
The master stateroom features a walk-around king bed with a big walk-in closet, vanity dresser, and settee. Large panoramic windows invite natural light.
The windows also allow for breathtaking views while underway. Behind the bed is a large window viewing the ensuite and a separate jacuzzi spa room with a fold-out deck. Want more privacy? Tap a touch panel, and the window will become opaque.
The VIP stateroom has a queen bed, a built-in settee, and a private ensuite bathroom. The remaining guest cabin is midship.
