First up. Hovercraft. Because
British made Griffon 995 type
Submersible.
Not obvious from the photo, but if you look carefully it's the front of a acrylic bubble, which is where the occupants sit.
Also appears to have manipulator arms
It's a Dutch made U-Boat Worx design. It's covered so hard to ID exact model.
Landing craft for two SUVs
The lead Toyota Land Cruiser has a Cypriot number plate
3 tenders, two large (like one on left), two small. All look high performance, but haven't tried to ID exact models
4 Quad Bikes
Correction, typo. Two large, one small
IMPORTANT TWEET CORRECTION
Owned by Alexey Mordashov, not Roman Abramovich. Typed in haste, mixed the yachts up

Some video footage of the inside, not the most lavish parts.
Note that they are wearing shoes, so much for creeping around in socks to preserve the lavish finish
Re. smaller tender. Now provisionally identified as an amphibious speed boat which can drive up the beach. Made by Iguana Yachts, possibly a 'Commuter'. Reference photo added
Link to an old article i did on these hisutton.com/Iguana.html
Nod @Fredu57294645 for help with the ID
CORRECTION
Further analysis suggests that this submersible is actually made by Triton
