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 groups This 2019 Lagoon 42 catamaran sleeps up to 10 across six cabins, making it ideal for families or friends wanting to share costs on a week-long adventure. The spacious layout and dual hulls mean everyone gets reasonable privacy without feeling cramped.
Well-equipped and modern Melissanthi comes with genuinely useful kit: solar panels keep power costs down, a generator provides backup, autopilot takes the strain out of longer passages, and the lazy jack system makes sail handling effortless. The sprayhood and bimini keep you shaded and dry, while the chart plotter and radio-CD player cover navigation and entertainment.
Solid value proposition At €5,400 per week with zero deposit required, you're getting a relatively recent catamaran with solid five-star backing from Istion Yachting (12 glowing reviews). For a six-cabin boat that sleeps ten, the per-person cost splits very favourably compared to chartering smaller monohulls.
One practical note: The listing doesn't specify the charter base location, you'll need to confirm where Melissanthi is moored before booking flights, as that affects your international transfer time and overall trip logistics. Contact Istion Yachting directly to confirm the base and factor in airport connections accordingly.

Marina Kos sits in the eastern Dodecanese and offers immediate access to a compact, well-protected cruising ground; you can reach Nisyros, Tilos, and Symi within day sails, with reliable northwesterly winds in summer making the return leg straightforward. The nearby Turkish coast at Marmaris lies just 40nm south, adding variety for sailors wanting to mix Greek and Turkish anchorages. First-week routes typically loop through the inner Dodecanese islands, giving you sheltered bays and short passages ideal for shake-down sailing before committing to longer distances.
