When it comes to holidays, Cristiano Ronaldo knows how to do it in style. The Juventus legend recently indulged in a sun-soaked vacation in the French Riviera with his stunning partner, Georgina Rodriguez, after a successful debut season in Serie A. And their getaway was nothing short of extraordinary, thanks to the breathtaking luxury yacht they chose to sail on – the Africa I – worth an astounding £15 million, and available for rent at an astonishing rate of £180,000-per-week.
This magnificent motor yacht, launched by the esteemed Italian shipyard Benetti in 2010 and refurbished just last year, is truly a floating paradise. Measuring an impressive 154.20 feet in length, with a beam of 8.8 meters, the Africa I boasts three air-conditioned decks, offering accommodation for up to 12 guests in six opulent cabins. Alongside the master suite, there are four double cabins and a twin cabin, making it a haven of comfort and luxury.
What sets the Africa I apart, however, are its outstanding amenities. On the sun deck, Ronaldo and Georgina can relax and unwind in a spacious jacuzzi while enjoying the picturesque views of the sea. Fitness enthusiasts will be delighted to find a fully-equipped gym on board, allowing the couple to maintain their sculpted physiques even during vacation. And for those who can’t disconnect from their electronic devices, Wi-Fi is readily available.
For water sports enthusiasts, the Africa I has an impressive array of recreation facilities to keep boredom at bay. With two Seadoo RXP-X RS 300 Waverunners jet skis, one Seadoo 260 HP Waverunner jet ski, two F5S Seabobs for diving, and a thriℓℓing waterslide, there’s never a dull moment on this luxurious yacht. Guests can also enjoy paddle boarding, wakeboarding, and snorkeling to further enhance their yachting experience.
Entertainment is taken to another level with the inclusion of an outdoor cinema, complete with a Sony Ultra HD 4K Laser projector. Underneath the stars, Ronaldo and Georgina can unwind and enjoy a movie night after soaking up the sun all day.
The Africa I offers not only indulgence but also stability, thanks to its anchor stabilizers that minimize the discomfort of sea sickness even in rough waters. Built with an aluminum hull and superstructure, the yacht’s performance is nothing short of exceptional, with a cruising speed of 12 knots, a maximum speed of 23 knots, and an impressive range of 3,915 nautical miles.
Ronaldo, Georgina, and their nine-year-old son Cristiano Jr. have been making the most of this dream holiday, cruising from Greece to the French Riviera on their magnificent yacht. With the Africa I as their home away from home, they are savoring every moment of this luxurious and unforgettable getaway.
