Charter pricing is famously opaque. Here's everything the operator will charge — mandatory items paid at the base, plus optional add-ons you can opt into.
Solid mid-size cruiser The Astondoa 53 HT is a well-established Spanish-built motoryacht that suits couples, small families, or groups of friends wanting comfort without the complexity of sailing. At 16 metres, she's spacious enough for 10 berths across three cabins, making her ideal for shared charters where everyone gets proper sleeping quarters.
Practical standouts You're getting air conditioning, Wi-Fi, and a generator, essentials if you want reliable comfort in the Greek summer heat. The stand-up paddle boards are a nice touch for exploring shallow bays and downtime activities. As a trawler-style motoryacht, she'll cruise effortlessly between islands without demanding much crew skill.
Fair value proposition Built in 2009, she's mature but not dated, and the zero-deposit offer from CD Yachting is genuinely attractive, removes friction for international clients flying in. You're paying for dependable, comfortable cruising rather than cutting-edge, which suits most charter groups fine.
One honest note She's motor-only with no sailing option, so if you're chasing that classic Aegean sailing experience, this won't deliver it. For pure island-hopping relaxation and flexibility, though, that's actually an advantage, easier handling, better fuel efficiency than you'd expect, and less weather anxiety.

Based at Ornos bay, in Ornos, Greece. Aron 26 is operated by CD Yachting Mykonos.
Ornos is a sheltered bay on Mykonos offering good holding in sand and mud, making it a reliable base for island-hopping through the central Cyclades. Week 1 typically takes you south to Delos and Rhenia for anchorages, then west to Paros and Antiparos where you'll find stronger winds and better provisioning; northbound options include the shorter hop to Tinos. The bay itself provides protection from the meltemia (summer northerlies) that dominate the region, though you'll experience these winds on passage between islands and may find them challenging on exposed southern routes.
