The charter fee covers the yacht, standard equipment, and insurance. Cleaning, tourist tax, and any optional extras (skipper, paddle board, etc.) are billed at the base — we confirm the full breakdown when you request a quote.
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.
Perfect for groups This 2025 Bali 4.6 is ideal if you're chartering with friends or family, six cabins sleeping twelve means everyone gets decent private space without breaking the bank per person. The catamaran hull gives you stability and a spacious, flat deck that groups genuinely appreciate.
Well-equipped modern cat You're getting solid gear here: water maker and generator for independence, solar panels to reduce noise, lazy jack and bag for easy sail handling, plus a chart plotter and autopilot that make cruising manageable. The zero deposit is also refreshing, no financial friction getting started.
Strong value proposition At €9,650/week for a six-cabin 2025 boat with an Istion Yachting backing (5/5 rating across 12 reviews), this is competitive for the spec and newness. Splitting costs across 8, 12 people makes it genuinely economical for a week abroad.
One practical note The operator's base location isn't listed here, so before booking you'll want to confirm flight connections and transfer time from your nearest international airport, that matters when you're coordinating a group crossing the Atlantic or traveling from mainland Europe. Istion's track record suggests professional logistics, but pin down those details upfront.

Based at Port of Lefkas, in Lefkada, Greece. Aria is operated by Istion Yachting.
Port of Lefkas sits at the northern gateway to the Ionian Islands, putting you within day-sailing distance of Meganisi, Kalamos, and the Scorpios group; week one typically involves exploring these sheltered anchorages with consistent northwesterly winds that favour southbound passages. The marina itself offers good provisioning and repair facilities, essential before heading into the more remote southern Ionian. From here you can reach Ithaca and Kefalonia by mid-week, making this an ideal base for first-time visitors to Greek waters seeking a mix of established mooring fields and quieter island passages.
