The movie was filmed on a $150 million superyacht known as the Savannah, “the world\u2019s first true hybrid superyacht,” per Luxury Launches<\/a>.<\/p>\nAccording to the Dorset Echo<\/a>, the Savannah was docked at Portland Harbour during production, next to the Isle of Portland in Dorset, England.<\/p>\nFilming on the Savannah lasted nearly three weeks, with some interior scenes later recreated on soundstages, according to Town & Country<\/a> \u2014 but most scenes set on the ship were actually filmed on board.<\/p>\n“Everything you see that has the boat interacting with water is real,” director Simon Stone told the outlet. “Water is not conducive to being faked on screen, so wherever you see water, it\u2019s real.”<\/p>\n

The yacht from The Woman in Cabin 10 is 274 feet long and costs $1 million per week to rent, according to Luxury Launches<\/a>. It has six cabins that can accommodate up to 12 guests.<\/p>\nDescribed as a “floating palace,” the ship features impressive interiors including video walls, a spiral staircase, a sundeck, a DJ booth and a 30-foot-long swimming pool. There is also an underwater lounge, spa and “a secret room to enjoy the sea in solitude,” per the outlet.<\/p>\n
According to Boat International<\/a>, the Savannah was “built in Netherlands by Feadship and delivered in 2015.” It went on to win the Motor Yacht of the Year at the 2015 World Superyacht Awards.<\/p>\nThe yacht was owned by the late businessman Luka Lundin<\/h2>\n\n\n![\"Parisa](\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/u9Z9kWZQ6JlbP3WwTDyWww--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTEyNDI7aD04Mjg-\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/aol_people_articles_471\/a31e6bdfc7524709484f0cd8ad6db3a8\"\/)

Filming on an expensive and glamorous superyacht required several rules, which Stone confessed were “massively challenging.”<\/p>\n
“We weren’t allowed to bring any film equipment on board apart from the cameras. Whatever we brought on board had to be handheld,” he told Entertainment Weekly<\/a>. “So we did have some lights, but they were in hands. We didn’t have lighting stands. We weren’t allowed to put anything on the ground.”<\/p>\nThe cast and crew were also not allowed to wear shoes while aboard the ship, something Stone wrote into the script because “that was what we went through every time we visited one of these yachts.”<\/p>\n
“We were all walking around in our socks with cameras on our shoulders and recording equipment hanging off of us,” he recalled. “The whole thing was like we were making a guerrilla movie in a war zone, and we were on the most luxurious yacht.”<\/p>\n
Knightley told PEOPLE about the tricky filming situation, noting that “because the boat was so expensive, we weren’t allowed to touch any of the walls.”<\/p>\n
“We weren’t allowed to walk on any of the carpets, we weren’t allowed to sit on anything, we weren’t allowed to lean on anything,” she continued. “So we really were all, for 12 hours a day \u2014 because we weren’t allowed on and off either \u2014 crunched up against each other. So it wasn’t quite the luxury that I’d been envisaging in my head.”<\/p>\n
In an interview with Decider<\/a>, Knightly said the cast and crew “weren\u2019t allowed to eat or drink anything, apart from in tiny little designated areas.”<\/p>\n
