Since having the interior of S/Y GLORIA refit by Cheryl DiGennaro of Newport Yacht Interiors, myself and the owner of the vessel are very impressed with the standard of quality of the workmanship. I can highly recommend Cheryl for any work onboard in the future.

Cheryl has a unique eye for design; she is innovative, creative and no detail escapes her. She finds the individual personality of each client so their yacht or home is not another cookie cutter design but a true reflection of the owners' identity and taste integrated with refreshing ideas that creates something personal and inviting. When working with us on inventory interiors, she has a flair for fabrics that appeal to many but include standout detail features to make them show stoppers. She is organized, responsive and her enthusiasm makes the design process an experience, not a project.

I have known and worked with Cheryl DiGennaro of Newport Yacht Interiors for many years. I have always known Cheryl to be professional, attentive to the wishes of her customer, hard working, knowledgable in her trade and delivers the highest quality of work. She is a hard working business owner with a strong entrepreneurial spirit that contributes to her success. Cheryl is the best in her field which is why I return to her for any work I need to have done onboard my yacht, Impossible Dream.

Cheryl is always a good choice to make a yacht really stand out."
