EXPERIENCE OF A LIFETIME

Discover the world’s most beautiful destinations while enjoying Michelin-standard cuisine and making memories with family and friends – it’s what a luxury yacht charter is all about.

Luxury. Exclusivity. Privacy. Adventure. These are just some of the words you’ll often hear associated with a superyacht charter and, as the most extravagant way to enjoy a one-ofa-kind experience in spectacular locations, it’s no wonder why.

Boasting luxurious accommodation and a dedicated five star crew, a yacht charter is, quite simply, unlike any other holiday or travel experience.

The world is your oyster Whether you’re looking for an island-hopping motor yacht to cruise the Caribbean or you have your heart set on adrenalinefuelled sailing in the Med, there’s a choice of spectacular yachts to satisfy every wish. Once you’ve chosen your yacht, every aspect of your itinerary will be tailored to your needs to ensure your dream trip delivers.

Would you like to discover the remote marine paradise of Raja Ampat boasting some of the best dive sites in the world? Have you always wanted to experience the Northern Lights in Norway’s fjords? Or perhaps rubbing shoulders with the stars on the glittering waters of the Côte d’Azur is more your thing?

Whatever your style, the world is your oyster.

Onboard luxury For those who appreciate aesthetics and craftsmanship, a superyacht is a showcase of clever design, with every detail meticulously thought out and finished to the most exacting standards. With salons and staterooms to rival the leading hotels of the world, every aspect of a superyacht’s interior reflects the vision of her owner, from the practicalities of flow through to ambient lighting, colours, furniture, textiles, accessories and art. The choice of styles is endless, ranging from modern to classic, with décor to suit every taste and every mood. Many yachts are also designed with disabled access in mind, such as including elevators between decks on all levels.

Superyacht chefs A major highlight of any yacht charter is the spectacular cuisine prepared by your very own chef. Superyacht chefs are world-class, many having worked at leading hotels and restaurants ashore before honing their skills on board for the most discerning of clientele.

Every meal is a memorable event, whether it’s a picnic in a secluded bay, a healthy breakfast al fresco or an elegant dinner to mark a special occasion. Superyacht chefs are passionate about their cooking and the way each meal is presented. Many work closely with the interior team who create incredible table decorations to mirror the theme of the menu, and great care goes into the pairing of wines to perfectly complement each dish.

With an impressive array of amenities on offer, from gyms and wellness spas to infinity pools and beach clubs, as well as wine cellars, cinemas and libraries, there’s plenty for all to enjoy, even on the rare occasions when the sun doesn’t shine.

For families with little ones, a superyacht becomes a giant playground, and on many yachts the crew will delight in laying on themed activities including fancy dress and treasure hunts to keep them entertained.

For older kids and adults there’s a treasure trove of water toys, with everything from jet skis and submersibles to inflatable slides, flyboards, paddleboards and snorkelling. Depending on your itinerary, many yachts also offer rendezvous diving by appointment.

Equipped with the very latest AV and communication technology, you’ll also be able to stream music, catch a movie or watch the big game. And if you need to keep tabs on the office, today’s superyachts boast excellent connectivity whether it’s Wi-Fi you need or a full-blown video conference.

Ultimate hospitality Of course, it’s not all about the yacht! Ultimately your charter experience and the memories you’ll cherish are down to the people who make it happen. Yacht crew are consummate professionals, highly trained and motivated to exceed your expectations to give you the experience of a lifetime.

Whether it’s meticulous planning by the captain, the thoughtfulness of the stewardesses, the can do approach of the bosun or the creativity of the chef, a superyacht charter is simply a world apart.
