A private day on the water can be the highlight of an entire villa holiday. Whether you are island-hopping in the Caribbean, exploring hidden coves along the Amalfi Coast, or slipping out for a sunset sail from St. Barths, a chartered yacht gives you the sea on your own terms.
The best days are not over-planned. Your captain knows the waters — where to anchor for a swim, which beach has the quietest lunch spot, when the light is at its best for the journey home.
Day sails and longer charters
A single afternoon on the water suits many guests: depart after breakfast, swim, lunch on deck, and return in time for a villa dinner. Others extend the experience into a multi-day charter, waking in a new anchorage each morning.
Villa and yacht itineraries can be woven together seamlessly — begin at your private home, continue by sea, and return to shore without missing a beat.
What to expect on board
Expect a capable captain and crew, generous deck space, and the freedom to set your own pace. Snorkelling gear, paddleboards, and tender rides to shore are often part of the day.
Tell your advisor how your group likes to spend time on the water, and they will match the right vessel, route, and crew to your villa stay.
