Xanadu | Nautor Swan 59 | Luxury Sailing Yacht | Sailing Holiday | Sardinia

THE YACHT

There are yachts that simply follow time, and others that become timeless. Xanadu belongs to the latter category.

This magnificent Nautor Swan 59, designed by German Frers, represents one of the great classics of offshore sailing: a yacht built to truly sail, capable of combining performance, structural strength and elegance with the authentic charm that only a Swan can offer.

Originally conceived for the famous 1991/92 Europa Rally, XANADU — then named Gulliver — was built with special specifications dedicated to long ocean passages. Thanks to her high-performance design and Nautor Swan’s exceptional build quality, she won the rally after sailing thousands of miles with complete reliability, confirming herself as a true blue water yacht.

Over the years, the yacht has been continuously upgraded and improved to offer a modern, safe and comfortable sailing experience. Major refits have included the deck, onboard systems, electronics, engine, air conditioning, generator, watermaker and technical equipment, while preserving the yacht’s elegant and sporty character.

With nearly 18 meters in length, XANADU offers spacious and refined living areas both on deck and below. The fully renewed teak deck, clean lines and protected cockpit create the perfect atmosphere for enjoying life at sea in total comfort, both while sailing and at anchor.

The interiors retain all the timeless Swan charm: warm spaces, beautifully crafted wood finishes and a layout designed for long stays on board. The yacht accommodates up to 8 guests in 4 cabins, offering privacy and comfort for families and groups of friends alike.

The modern sail plan, optimized handling systems for short-handed sailing and numerous technical upgrades make XANADU smooth, enjoyable and highly performing in every sailing condition, while always preserving the authentic feeling of pure sailing.

Based in Valencia, in the heart of the Western Mediterranean, XANADU is the perfect choice for those wishing to experience an exclusive sailing cruise between the sea, navigation and timeless elegance.

A yacht designed for those who truly love the sea, sailing and the freedom of life under sail.

Beyond the sea, beyond yourself.

Xanadu is an elegant Nautor Swan 59 designed by German Frers, an iconic sailing yacht that combines offshore performance, comfort and timeless charm. Originally conceived for long ocean passages and completely refitted over the past few years, she now offers an exclusive cruising experience blending classic style, modern technology and the authentic pleasure of sailing. Spacious outdoor areas, refined interiors in true Swan style and upgraded onboard equipment make Xanadu the perfect choice for those who wish to experience the Mediterranean under sail with comfort, safety and character.
