Our favourite lifestyle store in Palma!
How annoying is everything when you work on a yacht? Very.
Is it the first mate’s gum smacking that makes you irritable? Or is it the teaspoons left in the sink that drive you insane? From crew members’ obnoxious behaviour to the boat cutlery’s inexcusable ways, we all have on-board gripes that truly test our patience. However, there’s one pet peeve that practically everyone finds annoying: doors that slam, items that slide and things that fall in the dead of night. When you work on a boat, this is something that happens quite regularly.
Picture the scene: you’re fast asleep when your roomie tiptoes into the cabin. She tries to gently close the door behind her, but a sudden roll of the boat prevails and the door slams something fierce. Or, you’re binge watching “The Blacklist” with your headphones on when a book ‘jumps’ from the top bunk’s shelf and lands with a big thud on your stomach, giving you an almighty fright in the process. Ouch.
Here’s where Zuny’s synthetic-leather bookends, paperweights and door stops come in. Sold at Palma’s Rialto Living, the heavyweights signify the end to being attacked by 500-page best-sellers and woken by doors with a mind of their own. Zuny’s impossibly charming items are handmade to look like animals and include penguins, pigs, pandas and puffins, to name but a few.
Aside from being functional, these minimalist eye-catchers are perfect as decor pieces for the crew or guest area and make for versatile gifts anyone would love to have in their home!
Palma’s Rialto Living, conveniently located on Calle Sant Feliu 3, is just a stone’s throw away from STP and sells a wide selection of eye-catching super yacht must-haves. Have a snoop around and see for yourself. And if you make a purchase don’t forget to flash your STP (or other) entry card so you can relax in their leafy, oasis-like café and sip on a complimentary ‘cafe con leche’ before you head back to the boat.
