About this yacht
EXCLUSIVE LINE
SailChecker Expert View

Ideal for groups The Ortensia sleeps up to 12 across five cabins, making it excellent for larger parties or two families wanting to share costs and explore Sardinia together. The catamaran hull means excellent stability and minimal motion, a real comfort advantage for less experienced sailors or anyone prone to seasickness.

Well-equipped vessel This 2020 Bali comes with genuinely useful kit: water maker and solar panels for self-sufficiency, electric winches to reduce physical effort, bow thruster for tight anchorages, and air conditioning for Mediterranean summers. The cockpit barbecue and coffee maker suggest the owner understands charter comfort.

Mixed value signal At first glance, the spec looks solid for a newer catamaran in Sardinia, a premium charter destination. However, the operator's 3.3/5 rating (based on 19 reviews) raises a flag; that's below average for the industry and suggests inconsistent service or maintenance standards. Request specific recent reviews before committing.

One honest caveat The operator rating genuinely warrants caution here. Before booking, contact Yachting in Sardinia directly about those reviews, ask what they've improved since, and verify the boat's actual condition with photos and a pre-charter call. You're flying long-haul; you deserve confidence in your booking.

The marina & destination

Based at Marina di Asfodeli, in Porto Rotondo - Punta Asfodeli, Italy. Ortensia is operated by Yachting in Sardinia.

Via Sos Teuladdas 3

Why this is a great starting point

Marina di Asfodeli sits on the northeast coast of Sardinia within Porto Rotondo's protected anchorage, offering immediate access to the granite-studded Maddalena Archipelago and the Costa Smeralda's sheltered bays. Week one typically involves exploring northbound to Caprera and the Maddalena islands, with reliable thermal winds allowing easy day hops between anchorages, or heading south toward Golfo Aranci for protected overnight stops. The marina's position makes it ideal if you want dramatic coastline and island-hopping without long open-water passages on your first week afloat.

Frequently asked questions
Can Ortensia be rented with or without a skipper?
You can charter Ortensia bareboat (you skipper) if you hold the relevant sailing licence, or hire a professional skipper alongside the yacht. The choice is yours when you request the quote.
What sailing licence do I need to charter Ortensia?
Bareboat charter typically requires a recognised sailing licence (RYA Day Skipper, ICC, ASA, or equivalent) plus a VHF radio licence. The exact requirements depend on the country of charter — we confirm with the operator when you enquire.
What's included in the charter price?
The charter fee covers the yacht, standard equipment, and insurance for the dates booked. Tourist tax, transit log (final cleaning + bed linen), fuel, food, marina fees during the trip, and any optional extras (skipper, paddle board, etc.) are normally extra and paid at the base.
What additional costs should I expect at the base?
Typical mandatory extras are the transit log (often €200–€350), tourist tax (a small per-person-per-day fee), and a refundable security deposit (often €1,500–€5,000 depending on the yacht). Optional extras like a skipper, hostess, paddle board, or early check-in are listed on the quote.
How does the security deposit work?
The deposit is held by the operator at check-in (usually card pre-authorisation) and refunded after check-out if the yacht is returned without damage. Many operators offer a deposit-waiver insurance product that reduces the held amount in exchange for a smaller non-refundable premium.
Can I cancel my charter booking?
Cancellation terms vary by operator. Most allow cancellation with a full refund if requested more than 60–90 days before the start date, with progressive penalties closer to departure. Some operators offer a flexible-cancellation insurance product when you book.
Is the yacht insured?
Yes — every yacht is insured by the operator against damage and third-party liability. The insurance covers the yacht itself; personal effects and trip cancellation are not covered and are worth insuring separately.
What documents do I need to bring?
You'll need your passport, sailing licence (if chartering bareboat), VHF radio licence, and proof of payment. The operator will send a check-in form ahead of time covering crew details and any special requests.
What payment methods are accepted?
Charter fees are normally paid by bank transfer in advance (often a 50% deposit at booking, balance 30 days before charter). On-base extras are usually paid by card or in cash.
