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.
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.
Well-rounded starter yacht The Dufour 390 suits couples and small families new to bareboat sailing or looking for stress-free cruising, three cabins sleep up to eight, though realistically you'll be more comfortable with five or six. The 2020 build means everything feels fresh, and the 11.9-metre size is forgiving enough to handle without a skipper's license in most Mediterranean countries.
Smart everyday features This boat ticks the practical boxes: bow thruster and autopilot take the sweat out of docking and long passages, while solar panels keep your fridge running without hammering the engine. The sprayhood, bimini, and cockpit cushions show someone thought about comfort, and snorkeling gear is included, handy for dropping anchor in clear water.
Strong value proposition At €2,975 per week with zero deposit required and a five-star operator backing it, you're getting a reliable, well-maintained platform without the financial friction. Istion Yachting's 12 solid reviews suggest consistent service, which matters when you're flying in from abroad and have limited time to troubleshoot.
One honest note A Dufour 390 is sensible and capable, but it won't turn heads or offer the performance buzz of sportier models, it's built for relaxation and straightforward handling, not thrills. If you're experienced and want to push harder, look elsewhere; if you want a hassle-free week afloat,

East Shore
D-Marin Lefkas sits on the west coast of Lefkada, positioning you perfectly for week one exploration of the Ionian Islands; you can reach Meganisi, Scorpios, and Nidri across the channel within an hour, then push south toward Kefalonia and Ithaka. The protected waters and light northerly winds typical in summer make this an ideal launch point for less experienced sailors, while stronger crews can venture further south toward Zakynthos or explore the intricate anchorages around Paxi to the north. The marina itself offers good facilities and a reliable base for provisioning before heading into the Ionian's quieter anchorages and fjord-like inlets.
