Benetti’s Superyacht Calex Reviewed

  • By Diane M. Byrne
  • September 8, 2023

Benetti Calex

It’s a long way to go from California to Italy just to build a boat. Then again, Calex , delivered last year by Benetti , is a 220-foot fully custom build—60 feet larger than its owner’s previous superyacht , which was semicustom. It’s also an example of the degree to which an experienced owner will go to ensure the comfort of those accompanying him: not just family and friends, but also crew.

While a larger yacht naturally affords more indoor and outdoor space, this California resident wanted an abundance of both, prioritizing privacy and well-being.

Benetti Calex lounge

Arguably the best example of this is the owner’s suite, which, in combination with a dedicated alfresco area, is more like a penthouse apartment. Giorgio Cassetta and his team at Cassetta Yacht Designers, which has styled numerous Benettis, penned 1,772 square feet on the upper deck for this, from amidships forward. The owner’s suite includes the master stateroom, an office, a double bath and a walk-in closet. Since the stateroom faces sole-to-ceiling glass forward, 180 degrees of changing views welcomes the owner each morning. The alfresco lounge lets the owner relax in privacy. Accessible from the suite via two curved sliding doors, the lounge has chaises, chairs and a gas fireplace. And, the raised foredeck forward can be the owner’s touch-and-go helipad.

Benetti Calex interior

Unwinding in the company of friends and family was also important in commissioning the yacht, whose beach club is one of the more cleverly private places aboard Calex . Beach clubs have become bigger indoor-outdoor areas, especially through the use of fold-down platforms. They enhance the feeling of having a large lounge atop the sea, but they present a problem when owners and guests want seclusion. So with Calex , a single gull-wing door fully aft swings up to yield access. The beach club is still sizable, in part thanks to the yacht’s 35-foot beam. Guests can watch sports on the TV, enjoy drinks from the bar and use the hammam. To take a dip, they can step out onto the swim platform and use the flip-down swim ladder. Boarding water toys is just as simple from the platform.

And boy, does Calex have toys—especially ones that will help guests burn calories. Stand-up paddleboards, kayaks, water skis, electric surfboards, electric foiling boards, a wakeboard and a surfboard are all available. Friends and family craving a little more speed can step aboard two personal watercraft capable of 65 mph. If the toys aren’t enough exercise, gym equipment and a yoga space are on the sun deck, with a nearby hot tub for a post-workout muscle soak.

All of the time and attention put into creating these areas would be for naught if the crew had subpar quarters. Time and time again, well-planned crew’s quarters contribute to stronger staff retention and a better yacht-ownership experience. Sixteen hands, led by Capt. Eddie Cooney, handle operations aboard Calex . While no one will blink to learn that Cooney’s cabin is on the bridge deck, near the wheelhouse and the ship’s office, they’ll definitely do a double take to see its design, along with that of the quarters for the rest of the crew belowdecks.

According to the Benetti Style Department, the owner had a singular focus for their area from the start of planning. The furnishings and decorative materials are similar to those in the two main-deck VIP staterooms and four guest staterooms (two doubles and two convertible twins) on the lower deck. Finally, and wisely, dumbwaiters connect the main-deck galley to the upper decks’ lounging spaces inside and out.

Calex also features sculptures and art pieces the owner has picked up amid his travels. The yacht casts a comforting spell, inviting guests to be as social as they wish throughout the five enclosed decks, as well as outside on the terrace-like areas and fully open sun deck. Movable deck furnishings make it easy to go from big, garrulous groups to cozier conversations. Simultaneously, Calex caters to more secluded downtime, especially for its owner. Ultimately, Calex is built for different needs, including those of the crew.

It’s a long way to go from California to Italy to get all of this. But, especially for this owner, it was worth it.  

Benetti Calex

Well(ness) Wishes

As much as the owner set aside space for health and wellness, he wanted the interior ambience of Calex to convey a sense of well-being too. Ivory-toned furnishings and warm woods, such as maple and American walnut, create a serene atmosphere, along with a dose of sophistication. The decor is by the Benetti Style Department and the owner’s team.

Engine Emissions

Calex is Benetti’s first fully custom yacht in this size range to comply with Tier III regulations. Tier III is an International Maritime Organization standard that reduces nitrous-oxide emissions by about 70 percent compared with prior regulations. Calex has a scrubbing system for exhaust gas from the main engines and gensets.

Charter Calex

Calex is part of the Northrop & Johnson charter fleet. The yacht is heading for the Caribbean this winter and the Mediterranean next year. A glass elevator and space-planning make the five enclosed decks accessible for wheelchairs. The weekly base rate starts at $680,000.

CALEX Yacht for Charter

The revolutionary 2022 Benetti superyacht CALEX is a vision of class and opulence. Bespoke in every detail, this 219’ (67m) charter yacht showcases a completely custom design with a magnificent owner’s suite complete with its own private exterior lounge space. In fact, charter yacht CALEX’s sweeping layout won her the award for Best Layout at the 2022 World Yacht Trophies. Her sleek exterior design is courtesy of Giorgio Cassetta, while her award-winning interior was brought to life by a collaboration between Benetti and the owner’s design team.

CALEX’s interior is adorned with a beautiful mix of light and dark shades, white statuary, gleaming marble and stunning ivory-color furnishings giving an overall feeling of serenity. Guests can admire the rare sculptures and treasures picked up along the yacht’s travels. The main salon is designed to be a social space with a huge U-shaped sofa, armchairs, a full bar, pop-up TV and a dedicated dining table. Accessibility has been carefully considered aboard. Guests can effortlessly travel between the many interior decks in the stunning glass elevator. The deck furniture also can be configured depending on requirements. CALEX’s exceptional Benetti craftsmanship and clever use of space are demonstrated throughout the entire yacht, enveloping guests in luxury from deck to deck. 

CALEX welcomes 12 guests in seven warm and modern staterooms. The vast master suite is situated on the upper deck with a clear focus on privacy and relaxation. With a private office, spa-like double bathroom and their own private foredeck, this is the epitome of on-water luxury. This stateroom’s 180-degree views can be admired while in bed, or guests can head through the automatic doors to the completely private open-air hangout. CALEX’s six guest cabins, two VIPs on the main deck, two kings and two convertible twins with Pullmans on the lower deck all offer the same chic marble ensuite bathrooms. CALEX’s clever layout is extremely charter-friendly, with versatile guest accommodations and many different zones for guests to enjoy depending on their mood.

This charter yacht is a dream for those seeking to take advantage of all things alfresco. From the main deck aft and upper deck aft, guests can enjoy meals and entertainment surrounded by unbeatable views. CALEX’s sundeck is second to none, with a dedicated workout and yoga space, a Jacuzzi and plenty of space to recline. Her bridge deck has an outdoor area with a lounge and bar. In our opinion, her best feature is the five-star beach club. For those interested in hanging out waterside in style, this prime real estate invites guests to rejuvenate in the hammam, rehydrate at the bar, watch the game on TV or enjoy the vast array of watersports on offer.

First look: On board the 67m Benetti Calex

Having been launched in February 2022, the 67-metre Benetti yacht, Calex has remained a closely guarded secret. Now offered for charter for the first time BOAT looks at her contemporary interiors ahead of her inaugural charter season.

Delivered to an experienced American owner in spring 2022, the 67-metre Calex was something of a first for Benetti , being the first custom project of this size to fully comply with TIER III regulations. The accreditation is thanks to a scrubbing system for the exhaust gases from both the propulsion and generating systems.

With an exterior designed by Giorgio M Casseta Calex is an entirely custom project built in steel and aluminium with a seven-cabin layout that can accommodate 14 guests. The owners specifically requested that the crew quarters include materials and furnishings of a similar quality to those used in the guest accommodation, making working conditions on board more comfortable for her 17 crewmembers.

The interiors of the superyacht are by Benetti's in-house team working closely with the owner and feature a blend of light and dark shades, white sculptures and marble accents.

Calex has six decks, with special attention paid to the owner’s deck, which occupies 160 square metres and includes a lounge with bar and a 180-degree view that still offers complete privacy. The sliding glass doors of the master cabin leads to a private open-air lounge forward with two white curved sofas and loose furniture.

The master cabin also features a private office, a spa-like double bathroom with marble, frosted glass and wooden features.

Calex’s six further guest cabins include two VIP cabins on the main deck, two kings, and two convertible twin cabins with Pullmans on the lower deck. All cabins have marble ensuite bathrooms and something of a flexible layout, in line with charter clients, with various locations available to provide the perfect spots for socialising or choosing to relax in solitude.

The main saloon is bright and filled with cream furniture and wooden accents. Calex has a large U-shaped sofa, armchairs, a fully stocked bar and dining table. Thanks to a glass elevator connecting the interior decks the yacht is also accessible.

Out on deck, there are plenty of alfresco options for days spent basking in the Bahamian sun. Guests can enjoy meals and entertainment on the main deck aft and upper deck aft, surrounded by uninterrupted vistas.

The sundeck also offers a dedicated space for workouts and yoga. There’s a Jacuzzi and ample space for relaxation. The bridge deck features an outdoor lounge area and a bar. Leading down to the water – and considered one of Calex’s most exceptional features – is the beach club, which has a hammam, another bar, and television and toy and tender storage. 

Calex will spend her inaugural season in the Bahamas and Caribbean before cruising over to the Mediterranean. Managed for charter with Northrop and Johnson, she has a weekly charter rate from $680,000.

BENETTI LAUNCHES 67-METRE CUSTOM YACHT M/Y “CALEX”

Benetti launched, in Livorno, M/Y “Calex”, a bespoke 67-metre yacht with a steel hull and an aluminium superstructure designed for a Californian owner. The sleek exterior styling is by Cassetta Yacht Designers, while the contemporary interiors, featuring precious marble and fine wood, are designed by the Shipyard’s Style Department. The master cabin is on a deck designed around the owner. Facing forward and looking out onto an exterior space with a lounge area and fireplace, it cannot be seen from the upper decks because of a clever interplay of perspectives and volumes that ensures complete privacy.

my calex yacht

M/Y “Calex” is the 67-metre full custom yacht launched today in Livorno by Benetti, with delivery to the owner planned for this spring. Bespoke in every detail, the yacht has indoor and outdoor spaces that ensure absolute privacy and comfort and cater to the owner’s passion for exercise and well-being. Cassetta Yacht Designers developed the streamlined, well-proportioned exterior contours, while the interiors designed by the Benetti Style Department feature alternating light and dark colour shades, with the extensive use of maple and American walnut, ivory-coloured leathers, and white statuary and crema marfil marble. The fabrics used for the decorative cushions are by Loro Piana Interiors.

The yacht extends across five enclosed decks, plus a Sundeck, and stands out for her perfectly balanced volumes. The interiors were fitted out using the ‘box in box’ method and meet the highest construction standards, testifying yet again to the shipyard’s exceptional craftsmanship, with new technology used on “Calex” to minimise noise transmission and ensure silent navigation at a speed of 12 knots.

The stand-out feature of this 67-metre yacht is the Upper Deck, which has a surface area of 160 square metres devoted entirely to the owner’s personal spaces. A huge Master Cabin , containing a spacious suite, an elegant double bathroom, a private office and a walk-in wardrobe , extends from midships onto the foredeck outside and offers a 180-degree view, with two curved automatic sliding doors opening out onto an exclusive lounge area furnished with chaises longues, armchairs, a table and an original gas fireplace. While wide open, it is a very private space, much of which cannot be seen from the upper decks as a result of the carefully planned volumes and depths. The foredeck can also be used as a touch and go helicopter pad, giving the owner the greatest possible freedom when coming on board. On the same deck, an open area in the stern, with a dining table and a relaxation area furnished with armchairs and other seating, is complemented by an interior lounge with a TV cabinet.

The stern area on the Main Deck hosts guests in a spacious open-air lounge, while inside we find the main lounge , with a table seating 12 , sofas and armchairs, followed by the galley. The owner also wanted two large VIP cabins on this deck, one on each side of the yacht, with two garages of different sizes in the bow for the main tender and various water toys.

The four guest cabins , two doubles and two with twin beds (convertible), are midships on the Lower Deck and completely separated from the accommodation in the bow for the crew of 16, which at the owner’s request is decorated with materials and furnishings similar to those used in the guest area. Separate guest and crew flows and the use of dumb waiters ensure maximum privacy and excellent service on board, connecting these areas with the galley on the Main Deck and the upper decks.

Also on the Lower Deck of M/Y “Calex”, amidships, is the large engine room, Benetti’s first on a full custom yacht this size to fully comply with TIER III regulations because it is fitted with a scrubbing system for the exhaust gases from both the propulsion and generating systems. In the bow, the spacious swim platform and the beach club are connected to the Main Deck by two fixed stairways. A gullwing door opens onto the swim platform and lets light flood into the interiors of the beach club, where a long swing-down hatch on the starboard side provides easier access to the water and even more light.

The Bridge Deck , which has an outdoor space containing a lounge area furnished with bar, sofas, TV cabinet and barbecue and is served by a pantry, revolves around the captain and the wheelhouse. The large captain’s cabin is separated from the officer and crew quarters to be close to the ship office and the futuristic helm station, which features a touchscreen console designed by Telemar.

On the Sun Deck , the only deck not served by the lift, a central area with gym equipment and a Jacuzzi pool ensure the utmost in comfort and well-being.

Benetti M/Y ‘Calex’ Is the 67-Metre Bespoke Yacht Customized to the Last Detail

my calex yacht

M/Y ‘Calex’, bespoke 67-metre yacht with a steel hull and an aluminium superstructure, was custom-made by Benetti for a Californian owner. The sleek exterior styling is by Cassetta Yacht Designers, while the contemporary interiors, featuring precious marble and fine wood, are designed by the Shipyard’s Style Department. The master cabin is on a deck designed around the owner. Facing forward and looking out onto an exterior space with a lounge area and fireplace, it cannot be seen from the upper decks because of a clever interplay of perspectives and volumes that ensures complete privacy.

M/Y ‘Calex’ is the 67-metre bespoke yacht by Benetti, customized in every detail. The yacht has indoor and outdoor spaces that ensure absolute privacy and comfort and cater to the owner’s passion for exercise and well-being. Cassetta Yacht Designers developed the streamlined, well-proportioned exterior contours, while the interiors designed by the Benetti Style Department feature alternating light and dark colour shades, with the extensive use of maple and American walnut, ivory-coloured leathers, and white statuary and crema marfil marble. The fabrics used for the decorative cushions are by Loro Piana Interiors.

The yacht extends across five enclosed decks, plus a Sundeck, and stands out for her perfectly balanced volumes. The interiors were fitted out using the ‘box in box’ method and meet the highest construction standards, testifying yet again to the shipyard’s exceptional craftsmanship, with new technology used on ‘Calex’ to minimise noise transmission and ensure silent navigation at a speed of 12 knots.

The stand-out feature of this 67-metre yacht is the Upper Deck, which has a surface area of 160 square metres devoted entirely to the owner’s personal spaces. A huge Master Cabin, containing a spacious suite, an elegant double bathroom, a private office and a walk-in wardrobe, extends from midships onto the foredeck outside and offers a 180-degree view, with two curved automatic sliding doors opening out onto an exclusive lounge area furnished with chaises longues, armchairs, a table and an original gas fireplace. While wide open, it is a very private space, much of which cannot be seen from the upper decks as a result of the carefully planned volumes and depths.

The foredeck can also be used as a touch and go helicopter pad, giving the owner the greatest possible freedom when coming on board. On the same deck, an open area in the stern, with a dining table and a relaxation area furnished with armchairs and other seating, is complemented by an interior lounge with a TV cabinet.

The stern area on the Main Deck hosts guests in a spacious open-air lounge, while inside we find the main lounge, with a table seating 12, sofas and armchairs, followed by the galley. The owner also wanted two large VIP cabins on this deck, one on each side of the yacht, with two garages of different sizes in the bow for the main tender and various water toys.

The four guest cabins, two doubles and two with twin beds (convertible), are midships on the Lower Deck and completely separated from the accommodation in the bow for the crew of 16, which at the owner’s request is decorated with materials and furnishings similar to those used in the guest area. Separate guest and crew flows and the use of dumb waiters ensure maximum privacy and excellent service on board, connecting these areas with the galley on the Main Deck and the upper decks.

Benneti Calex sun deck

Also on the Lower Deck of M/Y ‘Calex’, amidships, is the large engine room, Benetti’s first on a full custom yacht this size to fully comply with TIER III regulations because it is fitted with a scrubbing system for the exhaust gases from both the propulsion and generating systems. In the bow, the spacious swim platform and the beach club are connected to the Main Deck by two fixed stairways.

A gullwing door opens onto the swim platform and lets light flood into the interiors of the beach club, where a long swing-down hatch on the starboard side provides easier access to the water and even more light.

The Bridge Deck, which has an outdoor space containing a lounge area furnished with bar, sofas, TV cabinet and barbecue and is served by a pantry, revolves around the captain and the wheelhouse. The large captain’s cabin is separated from the officer and crew quarters to be close to the ship office and the futuristic helm station, which features a touchscreen console designed by Telemar.

On the Sun Deck, the only deck not served by the lift, a central area with gym equipment and a Jacuzzi pool ensure the utmost in comfort and well-being.
