The awards, which are established by the UK-based trade association, showcase local and international properties.
The achievement follows the news of Ayla Marina’s Smart and Sustainable Standards label, presented by M3 Monaco at this year’s Monaco Yacht Show.
In February 2025, the association awarded Ayla Marina a 5 Gold Anchor Accreditation. The luxury resort previously received a “Clean Marina” accreditation.
Ayla Marina offers 231 berths for vessels up to 45 meters in length.
