Dos Hermanos (Lagoon 46-12pax)

Perfect for larger groups This 2024 Lagoon 46 catamaran is ideal if you're chartering with 8, 12 people or want serious space and comfort. The six cabins spread across a 14-metre beam mean everyone gets their own bunk without the usual catamaran squeeze, and at €5,375/week, you're splitting costs across more people than a monohull would allow.

Smart modern setup You're getting a genuinely well-equipped boat here: solar panels, water maker, air conditioning, and a generator mean proper creature comforts on longer passages. The autopilot and twin chart plotters take the stress out of navigation, and that sprayhood combo keeps the cockpit usable in choppy conditions, smart additions for Ionian sailing where weather can turn quickly.

Strong value proposition At this price point for a brand-new catamaran with a full equipment list, you're getting solid bang for buck. The 5/5 operator rating is encouraging, though only two reviews, so worth checking recent feedback on SailChecker's full reviews section before committing.

One practical note Ionian Catamarans operates in Greece, so factor in connecting flights from major European hubs (London, Amsterdam, Frankfurt all have good connections to Athens or regional airports) plus a 2, 3 hour transfer to the base. It's worth it for the sailing, but don't expect a short hop if you're transatlantic.
