What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
Perfect for groups This 48ft Dufour catamaran sleeps up to 12 across six cabins, making it ideal for larger parties, multi-family holidays, or corporate getaways where you want everyone together on the water. The generous berth count is genuinely rare at this size and price point.
Really well-equipped You're getting serious comfort here: air conditioning, water maker, solar panels, electric winches, and a generator mean minimal fussing with basics. The teak cockpit, bimini, and cushions suggest the owner has invested in making time on deck genuinely pleasant rather than just functional.
Strong value proposition At €8,800 per week with a modest €4,000 deposit, this represents competitive pricing for a modern, spacious catamaran with this specification. The five-star operator rating (albeit from just two reviews) is encouraging, though you may want to dig deeper into those reviews before committing.
Charter base location unknown We don't have confirmed information about where this yacht is based, which matters significantly for your travel logistics, some Mediterranean bases require easier airport connections than others. Before booking, confirm the exact location, how far the nearest international airport is, and whether the operator arranges transfers for international guests.
