New York-based architects Bonetti/Kozerski was responsible for interior design, bringing the warmth and naturalness of outdoor teak indoors, to create a relaxing setting dominated by bleached Canaletto walnut. The layout is open and flowing, while the custom-designed furnishings take their inspiration from ocean waves and are joined by selected iconic pieces from top Italian design brands.

Two drop-down bulwarks expand the size of the deck, establishing closer contact with the water at the same time as providing protection from the waves, while increasing the views of the water. The cockpit also includes a covered area, with facing sofas on each side, while guests have a clear view of the Oasis Deck from the main-deck interior, which starts with a dining area followed by a lounge.
