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.
Perfect for larger groups The Papanga sleeps up to 10 across six cabins, making it ideal if you're chartering with family or friends who want their own space. At 11.6 metres, this 2019 Lagoon 380 catamaran offers the stability and comfort catamarans are known for, no heeling, flat cabin floors, and plenty of room to move around.
Well-equipped vessel You're getting solid navigation gear (chart plotter, radar, autopilot) and practical amenities like a refrigerator and dinghy with outboard, so you can explore anchorages independently. The bimini keeps sun exposure manageable during longer passages, which matters when you're flying in from abroad to make the most of your week.
Excellent value proposition At €4,000 per week, you're paying roughly €400 per berth for a modern, spacious catamaran, that's genuinely competitive for a boat of this size and condition. The operator (SAILOÉ) has a solid 4.5/5 rating, though the small review sample (4 reviews) means you might want to dig deeper into their cancellation and support policies before committing your €6,000 deposit.
One practical note The base location isn't specified in your details, so confirm how close it is to an international airport and what the transfer logistics look like, charter success often hinges on smooth airport connections when you're travelling long-haul.

Based at Eden Island Marina, in Mahe, Victoria, Seychelles. Papanga is operated by SAILOÉ.
Eden Island Marina in Victoria is the primary charter base in the Seychelles, positioned perfectly for exploring the inner islands of the Mahe group. Week 1 typically involves gentle sailing to nearby islands such as Praslin and La Digue, with consistent trade winds and short passages of 15-30 nautical miles that suit both experienced sailors and those acclimatising after long-haul travel. The protected anchorages around these islands offer good holding and predictable conditions, making this an ideal base for building confidence before considering longer passages to the outer islands.
