A few other mega-yachts to have visited the Marina Casa de Campo include:
Recently, a new element has been added to the repertoire of attractions of the chic Marina Casa de Campo – the Megayacht AIR, yes, “mega” is defineitly the right word – she’s so big she’s docked just outside of the Marina Casa de Campo.
Isn’t she beautiful and graceful? “Nahlin” visited us at the beginning of the year and was docked outside the Marina Casa de Campo because this luxurious lady was too big to come in.
Arriving during Semana Santa (Easter week), the mega yacht “MY GIRL”, owned by a wealthy businessman from the United States, is certainly an impressive addition to the Marina Casa de Campo.
On Saturday and Sunday the 31st of March and the 1st of April, Casa de Campo villa owners and visitors were treated to the magnificent sight of a very impressive megayacht, “Le Grande Bleu” docked directly opposite Casa de Campo’s Minitas Beach and just off the coast of the exclusive Punta Minitas neighborhood. It’s all glamor and fame here in Casa de Campo!
