Perfect for groups. TI-BO I is a 2024 Excess 11 catamaran sleeping up to 8 across 4 cabins, making it ideal for families or small groups wanting to share costs and adventure together. The shallow draft and catamaran design mean easy anchoring in the shallow, turquoise bays typical of the Caribbean.

Thoughtful modern kit. Solar panels and an inverter keep you self-sufficient at anchor, while the bimini provides essential shade in the tropics, never underestimate this on a bareboat. You get snorkeling gear and a dinghy included, so the reef exploration and beach stops are ready to go straight away.

Solid value proposition. At €2,185 per week (around £1,850, $2,300 depending on your home currency), you're looking at roughly €275 per person for a group of 8, which is genuinely competitive for a modern, well-equipped catamaran in the Caribbean. The recent build year means fewer surprises mid-charter.

One practical note. Star Voyage Antilles has only 2 reviews on record, so ask for recent client references before committing, this helps confirm that the boat and team are delivering consistently. You'll want to confirm exact base location, transfer times from the nearest international airport, and whether the operator offers pre-arrival support for international clients.
