Best for groups The Bavaria Cruiser 34 is ideal for small groups or families wanting affordable Adriatic sailing with plenty of sleeping space—three cabins and eight berths mean everyone gets a bunk without breaking the bank. At €1260/week, it's genuinely competitive for this region and boat size.

Solid everyday cruiser You're getting a well-maintained 2019 boat with practical essentials: autopilot takes the strain on longer passages, a swimming platform and dinghy open up hidden anchorages, and the bimini and sprayhood keep you comfortable in Mediterranean sun and spray. The Adriatic Charter operator scores 4.7/5, which suggests reliable turnover and friendly service.

Fair value proposition For €1260/week plus a modest €1500 deposit, this Bavaria delivers honest, no-frills sailing without premium pricing—you're not paying for flashy extras, just a capable boat that does the job well. If you're flying from the UK, US, or northern Europe, budget time to reach the Adriatic base, but once there, you'll find this boat ready to explore.

One heads-up With eight berths in a 10-metre boat, the cabins will feel snug rather than spacious—fine for active sailors who spend days on deck, less ideal if your group values privacy or lounging below. Check the cabin layout before booking if comfort is your priority.

Can Lotus be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Lotus 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 Lotus?

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.
