Expected for October, 2028, Ulyssia will be instantly identifiable for its organic curves, sizeable blueprint and cascading levels. The design will be by Espen Øino, Meyer Werft will handle the construction, and it’ll measure 320m. Rather important to know is the fact it’ll house 133 residences, as well as 22 guest suites for visitors (the founding team behind the creation also worked on The World, a vessel with a similar concept). Residences will range from 110sq m to 953sq m, the bedroom count will range from one to six, and there will also be reception areas, open-plan kitchens, and private terraces.
Beyond your own walls, you’ll be able to beeline towards the onboard yacht club, dive centre, spa, pools (indoor and outdoor), and myriad sports facilities. When wanting to fuel up, there’s a ‘gourmet market’, several restaurants and a ‘culinary studio’; for downtime, the cigar bar and theatre await. Two twin-engine helicopters allow for further exploration (padel and pickleball courts will be found on the landing deck). ‘This is floating real estate. But it’s much more than that. It’s about the lifestyle that we’re offering, the possibility to discover the world without leaving home’, says principal investor Frank Binder. Construction is planned to start this season.
