MAYA by Rezzan Benardete Interiors

MAYA, the latest 37-metre superyacht from Numarine, redefines luxury and innovation with a seamless fusion of elegance, functionality, and sustainability. Designed by Rezzan Benardete Interiors, with exterior styling by Can Yalman and naval architecture by Umberto Tagliavini, this exceptional vessel is a true reflection of modern yacht craftsmanship. Delivered in June 2024 and built in Istanbul, MAYA embodies the highest standards of contemporary yacht design.

Inspired by the concept of a floating home, MAYA offers a perfect balance between private retreats and social spaces. Accommodating up to 12 guests, its open-plan layout fosters a sense of connection while maintaining an intimate atmosphere. Expansive windows flood the interiors with natural light, enhancing the sophisticated ambiance created through high-end materials and curated artworks. The seamless transition between indoor and outdoor areas allows for uninterrupted views and an immersive experience with the surrounding seascape.

Constructed with lightweight composites and marine-grade aluminium, MAYA is designed for exceptional performance and efficiency. The use of advanced materials not only enhances speed and stability but also reduces environmental impact. Sustainability is a key focus, with eco-friendly materials and energy-efficient systems integrated throughout the yacht. From recyclable elements to cutting-edge energy solutions, MAYA exemplifies a commitment to reducing its ecological footprint without compromising on luxury.

Technology plays a central role in enhancing the onboard experience. An intuitive touchscreen interface allows effortless control of navigation and yacht functions, ensuring ease of use for both crew and guests. A fully automated swim platform provides seamless access to the water, while large opening windows create a dynamic, adaptable living environment that strengthens the connection to the sea.

MAYA represents a collaborative effort between some of the most respected names in yacht design. The combination of Rezzan Benardete Interiors’ refined aesthetic, Can Yalman’s bold exterior styling, and Numarine’s engineering expertise results in a yacht that is both timeless and forward-thinking. With its blend of luxury, innovation, and environmental responsibility, MAYA sets a new benchmark in superyacht design, offering an unparalleled experience for those seeking the ultimate home on the water.
