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.
Ideal for families The Stella Maris is a superb choice if you're chartering with children or a larger group, 11 berths across four cabins give everyone reasonable privacy, and the catamaran's stability makes it forgiving for less experienced sailors. The 2025 build means everything is genuinely new, which matters when you're flying in from North America or Europe.
Smart creature comforts This boat is well-equipped for extended cruising: the water maker means you won't stress about supplies, solar panels plus generator keep batteries topped up, and the lazy jack and bag system make sail handling effortless. Snorkeling kit, TV, and quality speakers suggest the operator understands what makes a charter relaxing rather than just functional.
Strong operator choice Istion Yachting's perfect 5-star rating across multiple reviews is genuinely reassuring, especially when you're booking blind from overseas. A zero deposit is refreshingly straightforward and removes friction on international bookings.
One realistic note At 12.8 metres, this is a nimble catamaran, perfect for exploring tight anchorages and shallow waters, but it won't feel spacious if your group values sprawling deck space like a larger cruising cat would offer. That said, for the berth count and new-build quality, the value is genuinely competitive.

Based at D-Marin Marina Lefkas, in Lefkada, Greece. Stella Maris is operated by Istion Yachting.
East Shore
D-Marin Lefkas sits on the west coast of Lefkada, positioning you perfectly for week one exploration of the Ionian Islands; you can reach Meganisi, Scorpios, and Nidri across the channel within an hour, then push south toward Kefalonia and Ithaka. The protected waters and light northerly winds typical in summer make this an ideal launch point for less experienced sailors, while stronger crews can venture further south toward Zakynthos or explore the intricate anchorages around Paxi to the north. The marina itself offers good facilities and a reliable base for provisioning before heading into the Ionian's quieter anchorages and fjord-like inlets.
