VERINA STAR | 2023

Best for: groups of friends or families who want space and water play, with multi-generational groups a close second.

VERINA STAR is a 2023 Lagoon 55 based in Lixouri, Greece, and her standout is the tenderlift bathing platform: it drops to water level and turns the stern into a floating lounge, making getting in and out of the sea as easy as stepping off a terrace. She carries up to ten guests across five cabins, with a three-person crew on hand, so everyone has room and nobody has to lift a finger.

The main saloon is wide and light-filled, designed to draw the outside in, while the cockpit and deck give plenty of space for meals, sunbathing, and gathering in the same place at the same time. The toy inventory is serious: two seascooters, two SUPs, a wakeboard, kneeboard, tube, double water skis, and snorkelling and fishing kit mean active days are fully covered. For groups who want the Ionian to feel genuinely accessible, on a boat that can comfortably host a crowd, VERINA STAR delivers it cleanly.
