In the yacht charter market, unless you have rented a boat at least once before or better yet a few times (or you work in the industry), understanding and comparing yacht prices can be tricky. Especially when you are bombarded with advertising promising a day on a yacht from 200 EUR only to have a final quote come in at close to 2’000 EUR. Or worth yet hidden costs start to pop up even before you set foot aboard.
LIT & Boataffair: travel design you want to try for your next holiday
Recently we announced a partnership with boutique travel agency Luxury Island Trips by Exotiktraveler. Now we can offer our clients even more luxury experiences on land and on water.
What is particularly exciting for us is that both companies have a great synergy when it comes to the bespoke level of service, high personalisation and shared vision of travel as an experience, not a commodity. As well as the fact that you do not need to be a billionaire or an A-List celebrity to enjoy the finest travel.
You booked your yacht charter holiday, you discussed the itinerary and noted down the experiences you will be including in your boating holiday. Now you need to think about what to wear and what to take with you. If this is your first time (or even if it is not), here are a few things to help you get ready for your holiday. What to pack for the yacht charter and things to remember whilst on board.
One of the questions we get asked a lot is how to choose the right boat for your next holiday and what is the main difference between catamaran charter, motor yacht charter or sailing yacht charter.

We often get asked, "how much does it cost to charter a yacht?". You might be surprised to learn that the cost to charter a yacht can actually be very similar to the cost of a hotel stay. In this blog post we compare the cost of a one week holiday in a spacious hotel suite, with a yacht rental in the Aeolian Islands, for a family of four based on two adults and two kids; 7 nights in May.

Let me take you on a journey. A time and space journey. One of the first colorful TV advertisement I watched and was impressed by it so much that I still remember the vision it made in my little kid’s head was… Bounty. Yes, coconut-chocolate bar. In fact I find it’s too sweet, but the image of the paradise it has created was just stunning. I could watch it for a million times and I still loved it. Note that it was the time when there were just a few TV channels and capitalism was just entering post-communist countries. Travelling around the world and visiting oriental islands were not even in the scope of the dream for majority of people.
This is the incredibly story of one of our clients who booked with us last week. Lea & Charles Maxwell chartered a Lagoon 39 in the Bahamas with us and then the most incredible thing happened.
