Perfect for groups The Lagoon 51 is a modern catamaran offering excellent space and comfort for up to 10 guests across 4 cabins, making it ideal for families or small groups wanting to explore together without feeling cramped. At 15.3m, she's substantial enough for a proper holiday but still manageable for mixed sailing abilities.
Standout comfort features Air conditioning throughout, onboard water maker, and Wi-Fi connectivity are genuine bonuses on a 2024 build—these aren't standard on all catamarans in this size. The catamaran hull design means excellent stability and shallow draft, so you'll access anchorages and coastal areas that monohulls simply can't reach.
Solid value proposition At €19,040 per week with zero deposit required, this represents reasonable pricing for a brand-new, four-cabin catamaran with modern amenities and the operational support of Istion Luxury Yachts (a reputable Greek operator). You're paying for newness and reliability, which matters when you're traveling internationally.
One practical note The base location isn't specified in the data provided, so I'd recommend confirming with Istion whether it's in the Greek islands, Turkey, or elsewhere—this will determine your flight connections from the US or UK and overall trip logistics. Getting that detail locked down early makes a real difference to your travel planning.
