There's high demand for sea-bound holidays that combine the luxury resort experience with a swift topographical traverse of a superyacht, and the 'Streets of Monaco' yacht will definitely do it best.

Conceived by Yacht Island Designs and BMT Nigel Gee, this floating ocean oasis will measure a whopping 155 meters, carrying an urban replica of part of the principality's metropolitan elements. With a garden, a casino, a go kart track and countless extravagant living, dining and lounging spaces, the 'Streets of Monaco' yacht will prove to be the next hottest drifting travel destination.
