Francesco and Sabrina’s Unforgettable Journey Aboard CHRISTINA O in Costa Rica
Royal Yacht International proudly shares the extraordinary experience of our charter brokers, Francesco and Sabrina, who recently embarked on an exclusive fam trip aboard the legendary yacht CHRISTINA O. Certainly this journey highlighted not only the unparalleled luxury of one of the world’s most iconic superyachts. But also the breathtaking allure of Costa Rica. And this is a destination where natural beauty, adventure, and opulence seamlessly come together.
A VESSEL STEEPED IN HISTORY AND ELEGANCE
CHRISTINA O is more than just a yacht; she represents a floating icon with a legendary past. Originally built in 1943 as a Canadian frigate, the vessel underwent a remarkable transformation by renowned shipping magnate Aristotle Onassis, emerging as a masterpiece of luxury and design. Today, at nearly 100 meters in length, CHRISTINA O accommodates 34 guests in 17 exquisitely designed cabins, while a dedicated crew of around 40 professionals ensures impeccable service. Her lavish amenities, including a mosaic-tiled swimming pool that converts into a dance floor and a full-service spa offering massages and bespoke treatments, create an unparalleled charter experience.
THE COSTA RICAN ADVENTURE: Setting Sail for Paradise
The adventure began in Costa Rica’s vibrant capital, San José, where our brokers set off on a journey to explore the country’s pristine natural wonders. After a short flight to Golfito, the crew warmly welcomed them before they boarded CHRISTINA O and set sail into the mesmerizing waters of Golfo Dulce. Over five exhilarating days, Francesco and Sabrina followed a carefully curated itinerary designed to showcase both the yacht’s luxurious offerings and Costa Rica’s diverse attractions.
ONBOARD EXPERIENCES
Every detail on the yacht elevated the journey to a new level of indulgence:
• Gourmet Dining: Every meal became a culinary experience, expertly crafted by top chefs who infused local flavors with international sophistication.
• Spa and Wellness: Dedicated therapists provided rejuvenating massages and bespoke treatments in a tranquil setting, ensuring complete relaxation.
• Luxury Leisure: Whether sipping sunset cocktails at the expansive aft bar or unwinding in the jacuzzi with panoramic ocean views, every moment onboard delivered pure bliss.
Shore Excursions and Natural Wonders
Costa Rica’s rich biodiversity and dramatic landscapes provided the perfect playground for adventure:
• Marine and Water Sports: The crystal-clear waters of Golfo Dulce offered exhilarating snorkeling, kayaking, and deep-sea fishing experiences, bringing our brokers up close to vibrant marine life.
• Onshore Adventures: Excursions included treks through the lush rainforests of the Osa Peninsula, zip-lining across verdant canopies, and hiking scenic trails to discover hidden waterfalls and breathtaking vistas.
