When to book a luxury family week for 2027
School holidays fix the weeks, and the five and six cabin yachts with a chef for late July and August are contracted a year ahead. Peak weeks for July and August 2027 are being contracted now, in the autumn of 2026; the five and six cabin yachts go first. Nine to fourteen months ahead for a peak week, six to nine for June and late September, three to four for May and October. Booking early buys first choice of yacht and week rather than a discount.
George's insider notes
- Ask for the crew list with the proposal; the chef and the stewardess are the luxury.
- A six-cabin yacht for twelve puts every couple in a double; a five-cabin one for ten puts the children together, which they prefer.
- Stabilisers at anchor on a motor yacht are worth more than an extra cabin if grandparents are aboard.
- The gratuity is 10 to 15 percent of the base, shared by a crew of five to eight; on a EUR 60,000 week it is EUR 6,000 to 9,000.
