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.

Ideal For. This new Bali catamaran works well for groups of 8 to 13 people wanting to explore Sardinia's coast without the complexity of a monohull; the shallow draft and spacious saloon make it forgiving for mixed-ability crews or families wanting comfort over pure sailing challenge.
What Stands Out. The freshwater treatment plant and solar panels signal genuine thought for extended cruising, while the electric winch and modern nav kit remove friction from daily sailing. The underwater lights and grill are nice touches that tip this toward relaxation and entertaining rather than hardcore adventure.
Value Assessment. At €3620 per week from a 2024 build, this sits mid-range for Sardinian catamaran charters; you are paying for newness, reliability, and the operator's solid reputation in the region. The deposit is reasonable at €4500, and the equipment list shows no obvious gaps for a week's coastal sailing.
One Caveat. Sardinia's charter base at Punta Nuraghe sits roughly 45 minutes inland from Olbia airport; you will need a car transfer on arrival, which adds logistics and cost if you are flying in from the UK or Europe. Confirm transfer arrangements with the operator before booking.
