With more diamonds than days to wear them and enough cashmere to keep the whole of Scotland cosy, you need a treat that blows all other presents out the water. Helpfully you remember 'Santa Baby', that ultimate ladies' Christmas list. So what's on it? It opens with a car but that's a little predictable. A platinum mine sounds like an administrative nightmare. Houses and checks you already have, but a yacht? Now that sounds perfect. Yacht purchase, however, is a slightly more complex matter than waiting for Santa to drop off the keys and legal papers. That's why we've listed the most important questions you should ask yourself when buying a yacht this Christmas.

A superyacht escape is a dream luxury holiday for many, but what can it offer adrenaline junkies? As it turns out, when combined with Arctic heli skiing, pretty much everything you could wish for. Heli skiing trips mean being flown by helicopter to the top of a mountain in a quest for untouched powder and phenomenal views. They deliver a level of freedom and adventure that is simply not attainable by ski lift. Now imagine being able to explore the polar ice caps like this while staying on a luxury superyacht. Slicing down virgin slopes, viewing the northern lights, relaxing back at your yacht anchored in the dramatic fjords of Greenland. Spending a day husky-sledding and ice-diving before a massage in the yacht's Balinese spa, a soak in the ultra-heated Jacuzzi, or an elegant dinner prepared by the yacht's private chef. Sounds like paradise to me.

There's no doubt that Christmas is the most wonderful time of the year, but there comes a time in every person's life when it needs a little shake up. When the frosty weather and short days become gloomy, the idea of hosting your extended family for the fifth year in a row is exhausting and you've had enough turkey to last a lifetime, don't worry - there is another way. An exotic Christmas is a fantastic way to escape the usual yuletide traditions whilst still treating yourself, and Christmas on a yacht takes this indulgence to the next level. However, with so many destinations to choose from, how does one decide? We're here to help, with the knowledge that although there are many fabulous potentials, nothing comes close to a Maldives Christmas yacht charter.

A yacht with an onboard gym is vital for yacht owners who want to stay fit and healthy while travelling the world in style. Imagine running on the treadmill or working up a sweat on the cross trainer as the yacht floats through stunning landscapes, whether that's the tropical islands of the Caribbean, the active volcanoes of Sicily, or the ethereal blue-green icebergs of Antarctica. With a yacht gym you can exercise any time of day or night in complete privacy - and what's more, as soon as you finish your workout, it's only a few steps to dive into the cool, refreshing sea, or relax tired muscles in the yacht's Jacuzzi.

Greenland in the spring is a bucket list experience - a chance to see the crystallised Arctic landscapes at their best. It's also something best done by yacht: cruising from remote destination to destination, revelling in the surrounding wilderness, with a selection of adrenaline-fuelled activities to keep your heart racing. Seeing Greenland by boat means swathes of unexplored terrain. Heli skiing, dog sledding and snowmobiling across the dramatic, mountainous landscape. Ice diving to spot unusual marine life. And Greenland on a luxury charter yacht like 77.4m LEGEND means doing all that from an opulent on-the-water home, with access to amenities such as an onboard spa and gym, gourmet meals and an ultra-heated alfresco Jacuzzi.

Beautiful design is often restricted by one key thing: the budget. However, not so in yachting, where architectural funding goes into the billions and yacht owners are determined to put their stamp on vessels at any cost. Much like land-based homes, yachts can take many forms. However, when we think of a yacht, we tend to think of the same thing: a glamorous white exterior with blacked-out windows around the facade. That's why Frers Design's Bill and Me yacht caught our eye, as a beautiful example of how yacht design can take a different direction.
