Conte Max (Conte Max)

Perfect for groups The Conte Max is a serious contender if you're chartering with 15, 22 guests, that's a rare find in the motoryacht world, and the nine-cabin layout makes it genuinely sociable without feeling cramped. At 33 metres, she's got proper scale to deliver comfort on longer passages.

Standout practicalities Wi-Fi, air conditioning throughout, and a full toy chest (dinghy, SUP gear) mean everyone stays connected and entertained whether you're anchored or moving. The zero deposit is a genuine sweetener too, which takes pressure off the upfront costs of a big group charter.

Value question mark We'd need to see the actual daily rate to comment fairly on value, but a 2004-build 33m motoryacht with this berth capacity does tend to offer better bang-for-buck than smaller vessels when costs are split across 15+ people. The Maldives base is stunning, though flying long-haul from Europe or the US does add travel time and cost.

One real caveat A 33m motor vessel with 22 berths means cabins will be snug, this works brilliantly for friends or family, but it's not the option for those who need privacy or sprawling suites. Check exact cabin dimensions before committing a large group.
