Accommodating just six cabins for a maximum of 12 guests, the Galaxy Stella offers an intimate, small-ship atmosphere with a strong focus on comfort and personalised service.

The design is contemporary, with a sense of space that works particularly well for a vessel of this size. Onboard social areas are well arranged, linking indoor and outdoor spaces with ease. There is an elegant indoor lounge alongside a dining room and bar, with additional outdoor seating areas for relaxing between excursions or watching the landscape pass by.

The layout feels informal and easy to use, with space to socialise as well as quieter corners. The sundeck is a key feature, offering open-air space with loungers and a jacuzzi, as well as additional areas designed for unwinding at the end of the day. It is well positioned for enjoying the scenery and time on the water. Cabins are modern and practical, all with private bathrooms, air-conditioning and Wi‑Fi. There is a mix of double and twin configurations, along with a more spacious master suite offering extra room and a higher level of comfort.
