What you'll pay

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.

Paid at the base (mandatory)

Tourist tax (per person)

Regulated rate, charged by the marina (not the operator).

€1.30 per person per night mandatory

Final cleaning

Above the Croatia average. Operators with higher transit logs often run newer fleets — usually a sign of investment, not a hidden charge.

€400 per week mandatory

Refundable security deposit

Held at check-in (card pre-auth or bank transfer), refunded after charter if the yacht is returned without damage. Deposit-waiver insurance is one of the optional extras below — reduces the held amount in exchange for a smaller non-refundable premium.

€2,000 refundable mandatory

Perfect for families The Bavaria Cruiser 57 is an excellent choice if you're bringing together a larger group or multi-generational crew , ten berths across four cabins gives genuine comfort without cramped compromises. The 2017 build means solid systems and modern conveniences without the premium price tag of newer models.

Standout practical touches Electric winches take the hard work out of sail handling, especially valuable if your crew has mixed experience levels or anyone with less upper-body strength. The air conditioning, Wi-Fi, and full navigation suite (chart plotter, autopilot) make this feel like a proper floating home rather than a spartan adventure vessel.

Solid value proposition A 57-footer with this specification and low deposit (€2000) sits in a sweet spot for groups splitting costs , you're getting serious cruising capability without flagship pricing. The teak deck and cockpit add durability and that classic feel without being a maintenance nightmare on a charter vessel.

One practical note You'll want to confirm the exact base location, as that affects your flight logistics considerably , some bases are 90 minutes from major European hubs, others further out. Worth checking airport transfers and whether bluEmotion offers English-speaking provisioning support before booking.

Can Be luxe be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Be luxe 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 Be luxe?

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.
