Broker Description
Description supplied by the yacht's central agent
The ultimate family charter yacht, VA BENE has relaxed, comfortable living areas, a great sun deck and exceptional crew.
Fun, enthusiastic and friendly, the crew will ensure children are happy and entertained both on deck and on the water. Kids will love splashing around with the large selection of watertoys, supervised by RYA qualified instructors, and themed evenings with fancy dress and karaoke ensure the fun continues until lights out.
But children aren't the only ones to fall in love with VA BENE, her versatile guest areas transform into sophisticated spaces for evening entertaining. The large main salon has a timeless interior design, with pale, limed wood emphasising the sense of space and abundance of natural light. With a separate dining room and a large al fresco dining area on the aft deck, this yacht offers a choice of areas to enjoy delicious meals in both casual and formal settings.

At night the sun deck transforms into a dancefloor with romantic lighting and a state-of-the-art sound system, while the six-man jacuzzi is rarely empty during the day. The aft section is shaded, with a barbeque and tables for a chilled out lunch with a view. Large, indulgent sun pads forward can be moved around to accommodate gym equipment or a large dining table for special occasions.
VA BENE has an exceptionally versatile accommodation arrangement for up to 12 guests in six cabins. The full beam master cabin on the main deck has an en suite bathroom and a large private study which converts to a children's cabin with a pullman berth and sofa. The expansive VIP suite features a huge bathroom and a seating area, and all cabins are named after favourite Italian cruising destinations including Positano, Capri, Porto Cervo, Venezia and Portofino. The twin cabin has a pullman berth, making it popular for children's sleepovers, and there are a further three well-sized double cabins on the lower deck.

Good to know
- Licences
- None needed: this is a fully crewed charter. The professional crew hold all required licences, so no sailing qualifications or experience are required from your party.
- Cancellation
- Cancellation terms are operator-specific and disclosed in the charter contract before payment. As a rule, most Mediterranean operators retain the full charter fee within 30 days of departure; we recommend charter cancellation insurance (typically 4-5% of the charter fee).
