Who It Suits. This newer Lagoon 65 catamaran works well for larger groups or extended families wanting comfortable cruising in the Mediterranean; the five cabins sleep ten, which spreads costs sensibly across multiple couples or a multi-generational party.
Standout Features. As a 2026 build, you get modern systems and fresh interiors, plus the catamaran's signature shallow draft and wide beam mean good stability, natural light, and usable deck space without sacrificing sailing performance.
Value For Money. At 45,000 euros per week from a Campania base, this sits mid-range for a large catamaran of this vintage and spec; the zero deposit is genuinely helpful for international clients managing currency and upfront cash flow.
One Thing To Note. Marina d'Arechi sits near Salerno in southern Italy, which requires either a drive from Naples airport or a flight connection; confirm how Dream Cat Lab handles airport transfers, since that logistics detail matters when you're flying from the UK or US and coordinating ten people.

Based at Marina d'Arechi, Italy. Soleanis III is operated by Dream Cat Lab.
Marina d'Arechi sits at the northern gateway to the Amalfi Coast, putting you within a day's sail of the Sorrentine Peninsula's steep cliffs, the island of Capri, and the quieter anchorages around Positano and Praiano. Week 1 typically involves working south towards the Cilento coast or north towards the islands of Li Galli, with reliable thermal winds and short hops between established ports. The marina's position on the Tyrrhenian Sea means you can reach protected anchorages and small fishing villages without committing to longer passages, making it ideal if you're adjusting to Mediterranean sailing after a long flight.
