Exquisite craftsmanship at Moonen Yachts
A yacht is more than just a vessel—it is an extension of its owner’s personality, a floating retreat where luxury, comfort, and cutting-edge craftsmanship come together. While a yacht’s exterior may turn heads, it is the interior that defines the onboard experience, offering refined elegance and tailored functionality. Yacht interior design is an art that balances luxury, comfort, and functionality. For yacht owners, every detail—from the choice of materials to the integration of technology—contributes to an exclusive and personalized experience.
At Moonen Yachts, we specialize in crafting superyachts that seamlessly blend Dutch craftsmanship with modern elegance. Every detail in our luxury yacht interiors is meticulously planned to ensure that each space is both aesthetically stunning and supremely comfortable.
Luxury yacht interiors are a delicate balance between function and opulence. Unlike traditional homes, every element of a yacht’s interior must account for movement, space constraints, and marine conditions while maintaining a refined aesthetic.
At Moonen Yachts, we approach every project with a keen understanding of how space, materials, and lighting come together to create an inviting atmosphere. Our interiors are designed to offer the best of both worlds—elegance and practicality—ensuring that owners and guests can enjoy a five-star experience while at sea. This commitment to balance, elegance, and functionality is at the core of Moonen Yachts’ philosophy, where each interior is not just a space, but a masterpiece crafted to reflect the owner’s vision.
Moonen Yachts has built a legacy of superior craftsmanship and innovative design, earning a reputation as one of the finest yacht builders in the world. Our expertise lies in blending traditional Dutch shipbuilding techniques with cutting-edge interior solutions. Each of our yachts is a testament to timeless craftsmanship, bringing together bespoke design, unparalleled attention to detail, and premium materials.

Luxury yachting is all about exclusivity, and no two owners have the same vision for their super yacht interiors. Customization is at the heart of every Moonen yacht. From bespoke furniture to hand-selected fabrics and finishes, every detail can be tailored to reflect the owner’s personality and lifestyle. Our team works closely with clients to understand their preferences and transform their ideas into reality. Whether they desire a contemporary, minimalist aesthetic or a more classical and ornate look, our expert designers ensure that each space aligns with their vision.
At Moonen, customization is not just about selecting materials, it’s a collaborative journey between owner and designer. From the first consultation, clients work alongside our team, reviewing mood boards, testing materials, and exploring digital renderings of their yacht’s interior. Whether they envision a modern, minimalist retreat or a classical, ornate design, our specialists translate their vision into reality, ensuring that every detail reflects their personal style and lifestyle needs.
True customization goes beyond aesthetics, it’s about crafting an environment that enhances life onboard in every way. From selecting premium materials to maximizing natural light, every detail influences the yacht’s ambiance. Thoughtful space planning ensures both luxury and practicality, while state-of-the-art technology and advanced acoustic treatments elevate comfort. At Moonen Yachts, we seamlessly integrate these elements, creating interiors that reflect each owner’s unique vision while delivering an unparalleled yachting experience.
The selection of materials plays a pivotal role in defining the yacht’s ambiance. We meticulously choose exclusive marbles, natural stones, fine woods, and luxurious fabrics to craft interiors that are both aesthetically pleasing and durable. This careful curation ensures a harmonious balance between elegance and functionality.
Maximizing space without compromising on luxury is a hallmark of superior yacht design. Thoughtful layouts and multifunctional furniture are employed to ensure that every area serves a purpose while maintaining an open and luxurious feel.
Modern yacht interiors seamlessly integrate advanced technology to enhance comfort and convenience. From state-of-the-art entertainment systems to intelligent climate control, these features are discreetly incorporated to maintain the aesthetic integrity of the design.
A truly luxurious yacht interior is a serene and peaceful retreat, free from unwanted noise. Advanced insulation materials and double-glazed windows minimize engine and water noise. Soft textiles, layered carpets, and acoustic panels absorb sound, ensuring a quiet and relaxing atmosphere.

At Moonen Yachts, when delivering world-class luxury yacht interiors a central role lies with our dedicated in-house specialists. Unlike many yacht builders who rely entirely on external firms, Moonen boasts an expert team of craftsmen, engineers, and interior designers who oversee every aspect of interior development. Jos van Dongen, Head of Interiors, explains how the Moonen team creates an exceptional experience for Moonen owners:
Our in-house team plays a crucial role in:
This hands-on approach allows us to maintain the highest standards of quality while offering clients the flexibility to bring their unique visions to life.
While Moonen’s in-house team brings decades of expertise in interior craftsmanship, we also collaborate with world-renowned design studios to introduce new creative perspectives. These partnerships allow us to explore avant-garde aesthetics, cutting-edge material applications, and unique stylistic expressions tailored to each owner’s tastes. The MOONSHINE project is a prime example, where Hollander Yacht Design brought a distinctive vision to life, blending rich textures and a moon-inspired palette to create distinct personalities within each area of the yacht.
One of our latest projects, MOONSHINE, exemplifies the art of yacht interior craftsmanship. Working alongside Hollander Yacht Design, we developed a moon-inspired palette that blends deep, rich textures with light, airy elements. Every room has its own distinct identity, creating a journey of discovery as one moves through the yacht.
The use of bespoke furniture, premium textiles, and custom lighting ensures that every space exudes warmth and sophistication. The MOONSHINE project is a testament to Moonen’s ability to merge personalization, innovation, and timeless elegance.
As technology and design trends evolve, super yacht interiors will continue to push the boundaries of innovation. Expect to see AI-driven automation for personalized climate and lighting control, self-healing surfaces that repair minor scratches, and modular living spaces that adapt to different functions. Sustainability will also drive future designs, with bio-fabricated leathers and eco-conscious materials shaping the next generation of superyacht interiors. At Moonen, we are continually exploring these advancements to ensure our interiors remain at the forefront of luxury and innovation.
A luxury yacht interior goes beyond aesthetics, it is a carefully curated experience designed to enhance the yachting lifestyle. At Moonen Yachts, we take pride in crafting interiors that reflect our clients’ desires, ensuring that every voyage is experienced in utmost comfort, beauty, and sophistication.
