selected by Senior Charter Broker Alexander Hailwax

IRENE is a 1999 Ferretti 69 with a warm, family-friendly setup that makes her stand out in this size range. She sleeps 8 guests across 4 cabins, including a rare single with a pullman bed that works perfectly for kids or a nanny. With a crew of 4 and a solid 20-knot cruising speed, she’s a comfortable choice for exploring the Med at pace.

The single cabin with pullman makes her especially flexible for families with children or staff
A practical yacht with simple, comfortable interiors — easy to relax into
We like her mix of classic fun: waterskis, Seabob, paddleboards, kayak, plus fishing gear
At 21m she’s compact enough to slip into smaller harbors, but still feels spacious with 4 cabins

We recommend IRENE for families who want a straightforward, comfortable charter yacht with a child-friendly layout and a good set of toys.

PRICE: from €20,500 / week

VIEW YACHT

Compared to IRENE (a 1999 Ferretti 69) above, FLOW is the newer, sportier version — built in 2008 with sharper lines, faster speeds, and a more modern feel. She offers 4 cabins for 8 guests, looked after by a crew of 3. Cruising at 24 knots and reaching 30 knots, she’s one of the faster yachts in her class, while her shallow 1.7m draft lets her access bays and anchorages that deeper yachts can’t.

Quick underway: 24-knot cruising, 30-knot top speed
Shallow draft means she can tuck into coves and smaller harbors
Balanced toy set: Jet Skis, Seabobs, towables, paddleboards, snorkel gear
Ferretti design with open deck and salon spaces, made for Med summers

We recommend FLOW for groups who want a fast-moving, sporty charter with access to shallow bays and plenty of toys to enjoy once anchored.

PRICE: from €21,000 / week

VIEW YACHT

ULISSE is a 2009 Aicon 76 designed for easy, comfortable family cruising. She sleeps 8 guests in 4 cabins — a master, a double, and two twins — making her particularly good for groups with children.

With a shallow 1.2m draft she can anchor close to shore, while at-anchor stabilizers keep things steady once you’re there — a rare combination on a yacht this size. A top speed of 32 knots gives her plenty of pace when it’s time to move.

Exceptionally shallow draft for slipping into bays and beaches most yachts can’t reach
At-anchor stabilizers add comfort — unusual on a 23m yacht
Family-friendly cabin setup with two twins alongside the master and a double
Fast when needed, topping out at 32 knots

We recommend ULISSE for families or groups who want a versatile Med cruiser: shallow access for hidden coves, stabilizers for comfort, and speed for longer passages.

PRICE: from €24,000 / week

AMORAKI is a classic Posillipo 76 from 2002, with the traditional Italian lines the yard is known for. She sleeps up to 9 guests in 4 cabins — slightly more flexible than most yachts this size — and carries a larger 4.4m tender that makes beach runs and group transfers easy. Cruising at 20 knots and topping at 28, she’s a comfortable and fast option for short hops around the Med rather than long passages.

We like that she can take 9 guests — unusual for her size
2 single and 2 pullman beds for kids
The bigger tender makes shore runs easier when the whole group wants to go together
A full toy line-up: Jet Ski, Seabob, waterskis, paddleboards, towables, fishing and snorkel gear

We recommend AMORAKI for families with kids who want a classic Italian yacht with flexible guest capacity, plenty of toys, and an easy Med day-cruising style.

PRICE: from €25,000 / week

We like OXYGEN 8 for her fresh, modern feel — she had a full refit in 2022 and looks like new. Built by Ferretti, she combines a minimal, contemporary interior with well-designed outdoor spaces: a sun deck with bar and BBQ, wide sun pads, and cushioned lounging forward. She sleeps 10 guests in 4 cabins (master, VIP, and two twins), all supported by a crew of 4.

Recent 2022 refit — she feels up-to-date and modern inside and out
We like the sun deck bar and BBQ, perfect for relaxed entertaining
Upgraded sound system throughout, indoors and outdoors
An excellent toy collection: Jet Ski, Seabobs, eFoil, wakeboard, paddleboards, kayak, water skis (adult & kids), tubes, fishing and snorkel gear, plus inflatables for children

We recommend OXYGEN 8 for groups who want a modern, freshly refitted yacht with strong social deck spaces and one of the most complete toy sets in her class.

PRICE: from €33,000 / week

We like M FIVE because she’s every inch a Sunseeker — sporty, stylish, and built for island hopping. At 76ft, she’s a good size for families or two couples and friends, sleeping 8 guests in 4 cabins. What sets her apart in this size bracket is her outdoor spaces: the flybridge is big enough for proper dining and lounging, while the foredeck is one of the best seats onboard for long days in the sun.

On the water, she’s quick — cruising comfortably at 23 knots, hitting 32 knots when you want to move.

Expansive flybridge with dining table, bar, and plenty of sun-lounging space
A proper foredeck lounge — always in demand on Greek charters
Sunseeker performance: 23-knot cruise, 32-knot top speed
Well-rounded toy box: Jet Ski, Seabob, paddleboard, water skis, tubes, snorkel and fishing kit, plus a Tempest tender

We recommend M FIVE for guests who want the classic Sunseeker package — fast, stylish, and built for outdoor living — with plenty of room to enjoy Greece’s islands at anchor.

PRICE: from €34,000 / week

We like RED ROSE because she punches above her weight on value. At 85ft, she gives you the space and comfort of a larger yacht, but typically charters for less than newer rivals. She sleeps 8 in 4 cabins (master, VIP, and two twins) with a crew of 4.

The big win here is her deck setup: a proper jacuzzi — not something you usually see at this level — plus a 5m Zodiac tender that’s bigger than most in her class, ideal for groups heading ashore together. RED ROSE is a good deal!

Strong space-to-budget ratio — an 85ft yacht at good value
Deck jacuzzi, rare on a sub-30m yacht
Oversized 5m tender, perfect for group transfers and water sports support

We recommend RED ROSE for groups who want maximum space and features for their money — a comfortable Med charter yacht with a jacuzzi and big tender without paying 30m+ prices.

PRICE: from €35,000 / week

We recently visited THIS IS MINE at the EMMYS yacht show in Poros and can confirm she’s well kept, clean, and ready for active groups. She feels genuinely different. Originally built for a basketball player, she has more headroom than most yachts her size — a detail taller guests will appreciate. She sleeps up to 10 guests in 4 cabins (master, VIP, and two twins with pullmans), with a crew of 4 who keep things running smoothly.

A big plus here is her captain, who is passionate about Mykonos and Santorini, which is rare. For charters in the Cyclades, that local knowledge and enthusiasm make a huge difference.

Extra headroom throughout
Captain who knows and loves Mykonos & Santorini
Broad toy line-up, ideal for active charters
Proven, clean yacht we’ve personally inspected at the Poros EMMYS

We recommend THIS IS MINE for active groups and families chartering in the popular Cyclades, especially those who want to experience Mykonos and Santorini with a captain who knows them inside out.

PRICE: from €36,000 / week

DREAM is a 2004 Leopard 26, built for speed and fun in the Med. She sleeps up to 9 guests in 4 cabins (master, VIP, double, and twin) with a crew of 5. Cruising at 20 knots and topping out at 28, she’s a great choice if you want to cover ground quickly between anchorages. A deck jacuzzi is a nice touch for a yacht this size.

Interior styling is early-2000s Leopard, so don’t expect the latest look, but she’s well maintained and offers good value compared to newer yachts in this size and speed bracket.

Fast cruising at 20 knots, with the ability to hit 28
A deck jacuzzi is a rare bonus on a yacht this size
Strong toy selection: Jet Ski, Seabobs, wakeboards, paddleboards, towables, snorkel gear, bikes
Williams tender makes shore runs smooth and easy

We recommend DREAM for active groups who want speed on the water and plenty of toys while exploring the Med.

PRICE: from €37,000 / week

We placed ESTIA YI at the top of our top 10 list because she is a very proven, popular charter yacht with consistently strong client feedback. Built by Ferretti in 2004 and styled by Zuccon, she’s a crowd-pleaser — spacious, reliable, and always well received by guests. Sleeping 9 guests in 4 cabins (master, double, and two twins), with a crew of 5, she runs like clockwork.

A deck jacuzzi adds an extra touch of luxury, while her performance is another highlight: cruising at 19 knots and topping out at 31, she’s quicker than most in this bracket. Her toy selection is well-rounded, including Jet Ski, Seabobs, wakeboard, paddleboards, and scooters.

Excellent client feedback — a proven, reliable charter choice
Deck jacuzzi, always a plus for downtime on deck
Fast: 19-knot cruising, 31-knot top speed
Toys cover everything from Jet Ski thrills to scooters for land exploring

We recommend ESTIA YI for guests who want a proven Ferretti with a strong track record, great crew, and a balance of speed, comfort, and toys.

PRICE: from €40,320 / week

Why These 5 BVI Catamaran Charters Are a Step Ahead

Klara Jakobsen — Thu, 16 Jan 2025 12:40:33 +0000

5. Infinity

The Chef is Out of This World

Infinity is a brand-new 2023 Lagoon 46 that’s raising the bar for what you’d expect on this size yacht. For example, she has an e-foil onboard—something practically unheard of for a Lagoon 46. On top of that, she’s got a wakeboard, water ski, paddleboards, sea scooter, snorkeling gear, and floating mats. She is also equipped with all the SCUBA gear for 2 divers at the time, including suits, tanks, and air compressors.

Infinity also has a movie projector for outdoor cinema nights, basic gym and yoga gear, a Weber Grill, and a pizza oven.

This brings us to Infinity’s absolute highlight–the Chef, Mathis Chenavas. With a background rooted in French culinary traditions and experience with Italian, Spanish, and Caribbean cuisines, he’s the kind of chef you’d expect in a fine-dining restaurant—not on a yacht in this price range. Having someone of his caliber onboard adds incredible value to the charter experience.

4. Purely Blu

Great Rates, Amazing Crew

Purelu Blu is a fantastic option, especially when you consider the charter rate—it’s hard to find this level of value with such a well-outfitted yacht. The cooling systems, storage space, and overall layout are a step above what you’ll see on many other Lagoons in this price range.

We are not the only ones liking Purely Blu – She actually won the title Runner Up Best in Show at the recent USVI Yacht Show 2024.

The real highlight, though, is the crew consisting of American Captain Brad Needham and Chef Zoe Gahan. They’re not just there to take you from point A to point B—they’ll go out of their way to show you the real BVI, which they know like the back of their hand.

Purely Blu is perfect for groups who want flexibility: whether you’re into water sports, heading ashore to explore, or just enjoying lounging around onboard, the crew tailors the experience to whatever you’re in the mood for. They also love sharks and can get you up close with these fantastic beasts.

3. Andiamo

Amazing Selection of Watersports Equipment

We recently had the pleasure of stepping aboard Andiamo at the BVI Yacht Show 2024 for a walkthrough and crew interview. We were welcomed onboard by Captain Juan and Chef Rochi. It’s not just their professionalism that stood out—it’s their palpable passion for what they do. Their dynamic partnership is the heart of Andiamo, and it’s easy to see why so many guests rave about their time aboard.

First, let’s talk about the toys—because, wow, Andiamo really delivers here. Whether you’re into paddleboarding, snorkeling, water skiing, kneeboarding, kiteboarding, or trying out the ever-popular Seabobs, this yacht has it all. For those who love fishing, the gear is ready and waiting. The variety of equipment makes this yacht perfect for adventure seekers of all ages and skill levels. It’s clear from guest feedback that these toys create some truly unforgettable moments, from tubing with kids to foiling lessons with Juan’s patient guidance.

The layout of Andiamo is like a typical Leopard 50, with a layout and cabin arrangement that suits families, couples, or groups of friends. The cabins are immaculate, thanks to the crew’s great attention to detail. Little touches—like the daily quote cards on the beds—are evidence of the crew’s thoughtfulness and care.

But let’s not forget the cuisine, which is where Rochi truly shines. Guest after guest has raved about her incredible meals—healthy, creative, and tailored to their individual dietary needs. One past guest even mentioned that her food surpassed what they serve at their own restaurant back home—high praise indeed!

What struck us most was the consistency of glowing feedback from past guests. We left Andiamo impressed, inspired, and frankly wishing we could stay onboard longer.

Highly recommend!

2. Deborah Anne

A Standout Bali 4.8, the Crew Makes the Charter

We’ve included Deborah Anne on our list mainly because of her incredible crew. Guests consistently rave about how Captain Liam Wilson and Chef Keagan van Blerk run the yacht—with great attention to their needs, wonderful and fun personalities, and excellent knowledge of the BVI’s best spots. They seem to have really nailed the balance between professionalism and creating a relaxed, fun atmosphere onboard.

Charter Catamaran 'Deborah Anne' aft deck al fresco dining

Deborah Anne is a Bali 4.8 and brings a different kind of design to the table than the other Catamarans on this list. Think of her more as a floating villa than a traditional catamaran. The signature “garage door” feature opens the main saloon completely to the aft deck, creating a spacious, breezy living area that guests really apprechiate when spending a week onboard.

Up front, the trampolines are replaced by a solid deck with extra room for lounging and sunbathing, while the flybridge has both a shaded area and a sunbathing area under the open sky.

1. Ohana

A Super Well-Priced Fontaine Pajot

And now to our favorite charter catamaran currently available in the British Virgin Islands. This well-priced Fountaine Pajot 59, fresh off her first charter season, carries an incredible story: She has recently been around the world with her owners. That is proof of an excellent vessel!

When you meet the crew, Brian and Jessi, you are instantly convinced of their dedication; you know you are in good hands. They want to make Ohana feel like a home away from home. Guests have repeatedly praised their ability to anticipate every need, as well as their welcoming and warm nature, which makes them feel like family.

Let’s talk about Ohana. She’s spacious and beautifully laid out. There is honestly so much deck space you will have to make an effort to use it all–Flybridge lounge, foredeck lounge, afterdeck al fresco area, a big swim platform, and a super spacious main saloon. But honestly, the boat is just the backdrop. Brian and Jessi are the stars of this show.

Brian, a seasoned captain with a wealth of local knowledge, has a knack for planning itineraries that are both adventurous and perfectly paced. He likes to introduce his guests to a mix of the BVI’s more “secret” spots and legendary spots like the Soggy Dollar Bar and Bitter End.

And Jessi? She’s a rockstar. Her food isn’t just good—it’s the kind of cooking that makes you stop mid-bite to say, “Wow, this is amazing.” And she even manages to nail it with picky eaters or strict dietary restrictions.

It is pretty clear that Ohana is destined to become a very sought-after charter favorite. As she is new in charter, her price is set quite low compared to her size and standards; we expect this might change in the future. If you’re looking for an affordable luxury catamaran, this is an exceptional opportunity.
