M/C Alya
Overview
Alya is a luxury motor catamaran designed to deliver a refined yet relaxed Galápagos experience for just 16 guests. With contemporary interiors, generous outdoor living space, and a stable twin-hull platform, she strikes a balance between boutique intimacy and upscale comfort.
Her wide beam creates an open, airy feel throughout the social areas, while also contributing to enhanced stability during inter-island crossings. The onboard atmosphere is polished but unpretentious — ideal for travelers who want comfort and thoughtful design without a formal cruise environment. Between excursions, guests naturally gather on the expansive sun deck with jacuzzi, in the panoramic indoor lounge for briefings, or in the al fresco dining area. The flow of the vessel supports a smooth expedition rhythm: active days ashore paired with comfortable, well-appointed downtime onboard.

Cabins & Accommodation
Alya features spacious, modern cabins designed to provide a comfortable retreat between daily excursions. Clean lines, soft neutral tones, and large windows create bright, restful spaces that feel open rather than compact. Each cabin includes a private en-suite bathroom, air conditioning, and well-planned storage to keep the space uncluttered throughout the voyage.
