David Geffen, the billionaire co-founder of Dreamworks, is the owner of the Rising Sun, a spectacular superyacht that has been sailing the Mallorcan waters this summer filled with celebrities.

After hosting the likes of Katy Perry, Orlando Bloom, Chris Rock and Oprah Winfrey early this summer, the Rising Sun has brought a new group of VIPs to the island this week. Amazon's founder Jeff Bezos, supermodel Karlie Kloss and her husband Joshua Kushner are its new guests. In its whopping 138 metres, the Rising Sun boasts an indoor pool, a fully-equipped spa and all the water toys you can think of.

Also in Mallorca this week is fashion designer Roberto Cavalli who has been sailing the Mediterranean in his luxury yacht Freedom. Donald Trump's daughter, Tiffany Trump, has also visited the island with her mother Marla Maples. Staying at the five-star Cap Rocat Hotel, they've been exploring the island: walking the streets of Palma, posing for pictures at Son Marroig, admiring the views from Sa Foradada and enjoying a cocktail at Gran Folies Beach Club.
