Luxury Yacht For Sale in Coronado, California — Rare 60’ Slip Transfer Opportunity

Imagine waking up to a golden sunrise over the water, stepping onto a massive, fully enclosed climate-controlled bridge with your morning coffee, and looking out over the pristine waters of Coronado. Amberella is not just an exceptionally capable, turn-key cruising yacht—she is your next luxury coastal home-away-from-home, nestled in one of Southern California's most exclusive and desirable locations.

If you are searching for a premier liveaboard yacht, an elegant coastal cruiser, or a floating luxury condo in San Diego, Amberella offers an unmatched combination of space, upgrades, and location.

The Ultimate Coronado Dockside Lifestyle (With 60' Slip)

Securing a slip in Southern California is famously difficult, but Amberella offers a rare, highly coveted shortcut.

  • 60' Slip Transfer Opportunity: Amberella is currently berthed at the premier Glorietta Bay Marina in Coronado, CA.

  • Skip the Waitlist: The highly desirable 60' slip is likely transferable to the new owner (subject to marina application and approval). This gives you immediate, turn-key access to a world-class waterfront lifestyle that others spend years on waitlists hoping to secure.

Designed for Entertaining: The Hardtop Sky Lounge

The bridge deck on Amberella is a true masterpiece of space planning, serving as a primary upper salon.

  • Fully Enclosed Hardtop: Equipped with a solid fiberglass hardtop and protective side curtains, this massive deck is protected from the elements while offering sweeping 360-degree views of the bay.

  • Year-Round Living: Whether hosting an evening cocktail party in the coastal breeze or staying warm during a cool winter evening, this space effortlessly transitions to suit any climate.

An Unrivaled, Open-Concept Interior (No Lower Helm)

Step inside, and you will immediately notice what sets Amberella apart from other yachts in her class: unmatched space, light, and flow.

  • No Lower Helm = Maximum Living Space: By omitting the traditional lower helm station, the main deck has been completely unlocked. The salon and galley flow seamlessly into an expansive, forward lounging area that would normally be occupied by controls.

  • Incredible Onboard Volumetrics: This layout creates a remarkably open, house-like feel. It maximizes natural light through the forward windshields and provides a massive, comfortable layout perfect for extended stays, liveaboard potential, or hosting family and friends.

  • The Perfect Catalina Cruiser: When you are ready to slip your lines, Amberella is fully equipped and ready to cruise to Catalina Island, the Channel Islands, or down the coast to Mexico in complete comfort and safety.

Amberella represents an incredibly rare opportunity to purchase a turn-key, heavily upgraded luxury motor yacht combined with a gateway to the highly coveted Coronado waterfront lifestyle.
