Design & Construction
Designed around a semi-displacement GRP hull and superstructure she features a 9.4m beam and a 2.4m draft. The yacht is built over 3 decks with an internal volume of 492 GT (Gross Tonnes).
Construction started in early 2009. This was the eighth yacht built on the W164 design. Launched in February 2011 this yacht undertook sea trials over the following months. She was delivered to her owners in March 2011.
Exterior Design
At 164 feet in length, Hospitality presents a streamlined profile that contributes both to its visual appeal and performance at sea. The use of glass along the aft deck not only enhances visibility but also introduces natural light, creating an inviting atmosphere for guests. The inclusion of a fixed swim platform extends the usable outdoor space, providing direct access to the water.
On the main deck, a thoughtful arrangement of seating areas invites relaxation and social interaction, while a dedicated bar area serves as a central point for outdoor entertainment. The upper deck, accessible via a well-placed staircase, continues the theme of thoughtful design with additional dining and lounging options. It is evident that each exterior space has been designed with guest comfort and practicality in mind.
The sundeck stands out as a notable feature of Hospitality, offering expansive areas for sunbathing, a fully equipped bar, and a jacuzzi, all set against the backdrop of panoramic sea views. This area is optimized for enjoyment, whether hosting gatherings or seeking solitude under the sky.
Functionality extends to the foredeck, which houses additional storage for water toys and tenders, ensuring that adventure is never far away. The yacht's practical design elements, such as the side docking stations, reflect a commitment to operational efficiency and safety.
Interior Design
The main salon is a spacious area that serves as a central gathering spot, featuring a large sofa, additional seating, coffee tables, and a prominent television. The choice of materials in this space strikes a balance between durability and aesthetics, with wood paneling and soft furnishings that add warmth without compromising on practicality.
The formal dining area is situated forward of the main salon and is designed to accommodate guests in a refined setting. The dining table and chairs are chosen for both comfort and style, making it an ideal location for formal meals. The proximity to the galley allows for efficient service during dining occasions.
In addition, the library space can convert to a gymnasium.
The galley in Hospitality is equipped to cater to high standards, featuring state-of-the-art appliances and ample prep spaces. It includes double sinks, refrigeration units, freezers, and a commercial ice maker, ensuring that the yacht can be well-provisioned for extended voyages. The layout and equipment in the galley are selected to facilitate the preparation of a wide range of cuisines, accommodating the preferences of guests on board.
The bridge presents a bright and open space, equipped with modern navigational and monitoring systems essential for safe passage. The design here is functional, with visibility and accessibility prioritized. The helm includes a captain's office and a seating area, making it a practical space for navigation planning and monitoring the yacht's systems.

The superyacht Hospitality offers a generous accommodation setup designed to host up to 16 guests across its seven cabins.
Onboard, the guest accommodation is split across two levels, ensuring privacy and comfort for all guests. The VIP cabin, notable for its spaciousness, features a large shower with a bench, two vanities, ample closet space, a television, and a desk, blending functionality with comfort seamlessly.

Descending to the lower deck, guests will find four more cabins. Among these, one room is especially large and houses two single beds, making it an ideal choice for younger guests or staff. Like the rest of the guest accommodations, this cabin has its own ensuite bathroom, ensuring privacy and convenience. The remaining cabins mirror this thoughtful design, with one featuring both a double and a single bed, and the others offering similar levels of comfort and privacy, inclusive of double vanities and walk-in showers with rainfall heads.
