Holidaymakers will soon be able to set sail on a 500ft mega yacht that boasts a helicopter, a seaplane, an in-ocean swimming pool and outdoor beds for sleeping beneath the stars.

Norwegian-based cruise company SeaDream Yacht Club is expanding its fleet with the SeaDream Innovation, which it says is ‘a new, revolutionary yacht, which will introduce the concept of global yachting’.

Incredible renderings show how the mega yacht – which will weigh 15,600 gross tons and boast 110 ocean-view suites – will have nine decks and be packed with features. Tickets for the maiden voyage will start at £32,000.

The accommodation is top notch, as you might expect.

It includes open-air ‘Balinese Dream Beds’, allowing up to 40 guests to sleep outside and watch starry skies as the vessel sails (weather permitting, obviously).

They come complete with heated blankets so guests don’t get too chilly.

Water activities that guests can take part in on voyages include kayaking and sailboat excursions.

Most meals are served in an open-air restaurant with striking views – and there is a one-to-one guest-to-crew ratio.

The helicopter will be housed in a hanger at the front of the yacht while the seaplane will, MailOnline Travel understands, be parked on top of the ship – presumably hoisted up there via a crane.

SeaDream Yacht Club was unable to provide any details. 

Atle Brynestad, owner, chairman and CEO of SeaDream Yacht Club, said: ‘This project has been a dream of mine for many years.
