SHADES OF GREY Description and Charter Summary Information
If you had to describe the Sunreef 80 SHADES OF GREY in one sentence, you would say that this Sunreef 80 impresses with its clean, elegant design and is truly no 'grey mouse'. Warm shades of grey, combined with a modern green, give the interior a fresh and very elegant look. You will immediately feel at home on board as there are no 'loud' design elements to obstruct the view and everything is simply harmonious.
The master cabin is located in the middle of the starboard side and has a king-size bed, a small sofa for relaxing, a dressing table and a walk-in wardrobe. The bathroom with shower is very spacious. Also to starboard is the double cabin (queen size bed) with a comfortable en suite bathroom.
On the port side, amidships, is the VIP cabin (queen-size bed), which is slightly larger than the double cabin and has a walk-in wardrobe. The bathroom is also slightly larger. Forward on the port side is the guest cabin with three comfortable single beds and an en-suite shower room. The beds are 80 x 200 cm and the bunk beds are staggered so that the upper bed is easy to reach.
The saloon is all about relaxing together, with two really big lounge sofas. In the centre is a black glass table that can be converted into a dining table for up to 10 people in bad weather.
The aft deck has a large dining table that can seat up to 10 people and a lounge sofa. There is also a lounge with a coffee table on the foredeck.
On the flybridge, the SHADES OF GREY has another large dining table, perfect for up to 10 guests, with a U-shaped seating area. Behind this is a full width sunbathing area. Forward of the helm position is an attractive bar, where you can enjoy a drink or have a snack from the chef.
The flybridge is transformed into a spa area when the stewardess sets up her massage table and pampers guests with a feel-good massage.
There is also a wide range of water sports on board, including an E-Foil, two Seabobs and numerous other water toys, as well as a water slide. And it's not just the kids who have fun!

Charter Feedback Mallorca August 2025
The boat is stunning: we had high expectations of the Sunreef 80 and they were met if not exceeded: beautiful, luxurious, very spacious, functional, beautifully decorated and super comfortable.
The toys were great and everybody had so much choice and enormous fun. Both our friends for the first half of the holiday and our family for the second half were completely blown away.
But what made the holiday seriously special was the crew. They have been truly special: super professional, extremely attentive, always available, always a step ahead when it came to looking after our needs. The chef was amazing; we ate spectacularly throughout the whole holiday. The whole team have been a dream: they created a harmonious, welcoming, extremely high end service level, with a feeling of being at home.
We have been chartering boats for many years but we had not experienced such a beautiful dedicated crew before. The captain has created a perfect team: good atmosphere, always calm, with everybody always available for any need. Francesco is really an amazing skipper - have not met someone like him before in over 15 years of chartering.
So we feel we have been very lucky and I think we will charter Shades of Grey again.

Cruising Grounds
Where SHADES OF GREY voyages
Amalfi Coast
Cliff-stacked villages and long lunches the tender reaches — the Italian summer the boat makes possible, anchored under the Faraglioni at sundowners and tied up in Amalfi by midnight.
Italy
Four cruising grounds in one country — the Amalfi Coast, Sardinia & Corsica, Sicily and the Aeolian Islands, the Italian Riviera south to Tuscany. The hardest part of an Italy yacht charter is choosing which week to take first.
Sicily & Aeolian Islands
Stromboli erupting off the anchorage at Panarea, the Greek theatre at Taormina with Etna smoking behind, and the Cappella Palatina at Palermo's Norman Palace — the Mediterranean's only active-volcano cruising ground and the Italian week most guests book the second time they come.
French Riviera
Monaco's Port Hercule, Cap Ferrat's villa coast, Cannes and Antibes in the central corridor, and Saint-Tropez at the west end. The French Riviera is the western Mediterranean's maximum-glamour yacht week: shorter passages, premium dockage, Michelin density, and the visible harbor theater guests are usually booking on purpose.
