Best 4-Cabin Catamarans in Greece

No. We charter the whole yacht, fully crewed, one price per yacht per week, and the eight guests are your party and nobody else's. By-the-cabin charters exist in Greece on other operators' boats and are a different product; if that is what you want, we will say so rather than sell you a week that does not fit.

Per yacht per week before VAT and APA, from each yacht's own rate card: Azul EUR 20,000 to 26,900, Explorion EUR 21,000 to 28,000, Kimata EUR 31,500 to 42,500, Alexandra II EUR 33,500 to 43,500, ALTEYA EUR 49,000 to 69,000, Above & Beyond EUR 56,000 to 77,000, SAMARA EUR 65,000 to 70,000, Imladris EUR 65,000 to 85,000. Add APA of 20 to 30% of the base, VAT at 5.2 to 12% by the yacht's certification, and a customary 10 to 15% crew gratuity on the base. A EUR 30,000 base week lands around EUR 38,000 to 43,000 all-in before gratuity.

The bigger hulls: Imladris, Above & Beyond, ALTEYA and SAMARA at 21 to 24 metres carry the afternoon Meltemi comfortably when the passages are planned for the mornings. Kimata, Alexandra II, Explorion and Azul at 16 to 20 metres are the better boats for the Ionian and the Saronic in high summer, where the wind does not reach and the anchorages are sand in three to ten metres.

Two couples, a family with three or four children, or a family plus grandparents. Eight guests map onto four suites without anyone drawing the short straw, which is why the 4-cabin layout is the workhorse of Greek family chartering.

The yacht and her crew. On top come APA (typically 25-30% for catamarans, a transparent account for fuel, provisioning and berthing) and Greek VAT at the yacht's certified rate, in practice 6.5% or 12% for most catamarans.

Sailing (Above & Beyond, Imladris, Kimata, Alexandra II, Azul) for the rhythm and the lower rate; power (ALTEYA, SAMARA, Explorion) for 18-22 knot passages that fit two island groups into one week.

Step up to the 5-cabin class (ten guests) or, for the full legal twelve, the six-cabin Fountaine Pajot Thira 80 ChristAl MiO 80. George keeps a separate guide for 5-cabin catamarans.

Yes. The 2027 calendars are open, and the 4-cabin class is where family demand concentrates, so the short list of genuinely excellent boats commits its July and August 2027 weeks first, typically by late winter. Owners publish 2027 rate cards through the autumn; reserving early holds the yacht while the rate confirms.
