This is the singer’s latest whim

The artist, who has a net worth of 700 million euros, has given himself a new treat to enjoy (even more) his golden retirement. It is a luxurious yacht with which he has already sailed around the Bahamas, where he has a private island, and which he has christened with a name that has not left anyone indifferent: They were weakas her first daughter with Isabel Preysler.

According to TardeARis a boat very similar to that of Rafael Nadala Sunreef Power 80 (the best in the shipping market) that the tennis player acquired last February. The Julio Iglesias The boat was built in Poland under the artist’s instructions and wishes. It is blue and 30 metres long and has five cabins, a bar and an indoor kitchen, among other rooms. It is docked on the private island he owns in the Bahamas, where he has been installed for months. The property, 50 minutes by plane from Miami, has a port and a helipad. Surrounded by coral reefs and large expanses of sand and jungle, it has become the artist’s private paradise.

It is Julio Iglesias’ most exclusive property, but not the only one. In Punta Cana he has several residential areas, golf courses, hotels and even an international airport with his own private plane, which he bought for 35 million dollars. Here he also owns an impressive mansion, which he bought for 24 million dollars, and a house in Indian Greek (an island located north of Miami) that cost him 15.2 million dollars, in addition to the ‘Cuatro lunas’ estate in Ojén, Marbella.

A golden retirement

At 80, which he celebrated with a small party and without too much fanfare, Julio Iglesias lives away from the media spotlight. His ‘disappearance’ has given rise to numerous rumours about his state of health and his alleged mobility and even memory problems, all denied by both him and his children: “My father is doing great,” Julio José repeats whenever he is asked.

His return to the stage has not yet been set, but the singer is working on other projects that will soon see the light of day. The most important is a biopic about his life that he himself announced last February: “After so much speculation, books and documentaries in which I have not participated, for the first time I have decided to tell the truth about my life to a universal company like Netflix,” explained the author of ‘Hey’. “After much thought, a very emotional letter sent to me by Bela Bajaria, vice president of content at Netflix, was enough to convince me that Netflix was the ideal company to carry out this project. I feel grateful to so many people from so many countries who have supported me and encouraged my life,” said the artist.
