The interior of the £47 million superyacht was designed by the legendary H2 Hunt Design with backlit onyx, gold inlay and polished wood running the length of the boat.

The deck of the yacht features a dramatic main salon filled with Roberto Cavalli furnishings, a cozy fireplace and a mini aquarium.

In total, Leona has five cabins, including two VIP rooms on the main deck and a master bedroom that is part of the extravagant palatial suite.

A glimpse of beautiful marble, gold finishes and mirrors is featured throughout the suite, which features a circular bath, a private interior lounge and a terrace with a spa bath.

James Bermudez, director of H2 Yacht Design, said: “Leona’s interior employs a bold, opulent palette with a high level of intricate detail.

“[There is a] intensive use of decorative finishes and interesting textures: glossy lacquers, backlit onyx, figurative wood, gold inlays and luxurious textiles are combined throughout.

“We soon discovered that the client did not respond positively to the modest design.

“He required us to be brave and turn up the volume.”

In addition to the owner’s suite, the yacht also has a plush red velvet covered deck cinema room with a 102-inch OLED screen, a luxurious piano bar, a sky lounge and an indoor gym.

But Leona’s real deal is the dramatic beach club with something unique swimming swimming pool that is secretly located at the back of the ship.

Marble runs across the walls and floor of the club, while the ceiling is finished with modern night sky pattern lights that highlight the beautiful reproductions of Greek statues of Aphrodite of Milos and other nymphs and goddesses.

There’s a bar decorated with amethyst and agate – and a hookah room with drop-down sea terraces.

While people are stunned by the sheer luxury at the beach club, some seemed bewildered by the addition of the pool.

One of those critics joked: ‘What a waste. You have the whole damn ocean. What’s the point?’

Another person quickly responded, saying, “You know why? Because [the owner] can [afford]That’s why.”

A third defended this argument by saying: ‘It is safer to swim in a pool at night than in the sea where there are sharks and what not.”

Leona’s exterior design is finished in a striking combination of red and white that enhances the superyacht’s grand appearance.

Unique Yacht Design founder Emrecan Özgün said: “The red and white color combination contributes to Leona’s very personal presence. We also opted for a fashion sign, which adds to her unique aesthetic.

“In addition, the mast design has been adjusted, resulting in a more masculine and sporty appearance of the yacht. [And] we used carbon handrails, which adds a touch of modernity.”
