Step aboard Evenstar, a luxurious 2025 55′ Lagoon catamaran where classic elegance meets modern comfort. Featuring four spacious queen cabins with private ensuites, a sunlit interior with custom A/C, and multiple lounge areas—including a top deck and aft terrace—this yacht is designed for both relaxation and adventure. Whether dining under the stars or sharing stories at sunset, Evenstar delivers an unforgettable Caribbean escape.
Accommodation
EVENSTAR is a 2025 55’ Lagoon sailing catamaran inspired by the evening star, where golden-hour sailing, peaceful anchorages, and glowing Caribbean nights set the tone. Sun-filled interiors create an airy, serene feel, while the salon offers an inviting space for lounging and easy dining. Outdoors, the top-deck lounge is made for sunset toasts, and the villa-style aft lounge quickly becomes a favorite gathering spot once the anchor drops.
Accommodating up to 8 guests in 4 expansive queen cabins, each with a private ensuite, EVENSTAR offers a relaxed balance of comfort, style, and connection. Custom A/C adds to the ease throughout the charter, creating a yacht that feels social when guests want it and quiet when they don’t. Crew accommodations are in 1 cabin with 2 singles.
