The Best Charter Yachts Available



This is a selection of some of the most luxurious yachts currently available for some fun in the sun.

The fun comes at a price though, expect to cough up between 500,000 and 700,000 Euros for a shindig aboard one of these floating beauties.

Indian Empress
. This yacht, owned by an Indian business man, is available for charter. It does come at a price however, but if you have the cash this 95 meters of yacht delivers what you expect. The yacht has been used for entertaining at the Monaco Grand Prix the last two years, where guests such as Jay-Z have experienced what this yacht has to offer.

Nero is a classic yacht built for charter. Completed as a new build in 2008, the 90 meters NERO was inspired by the “Corsair” series of yachts owned by the financier J.P.Morgan. Promenade deck and multiple exterior seating and dining areas as well as Oak and Ash interior ensures the authentic old time style. A large Jacuzzi on the sun deck and a 5.7m swimming pool with current machine on the foredeck keeps you comfortable as well as in shape. Three tenders and many water toys are available. Other features include the latest audio video systems, outdoor cinema and gym. The vessel has a crew of 20 lead by a British Captain. See neroyacht

Alysia is one of the most expensive yachts available for charter. It was launched in 2005. The rate for this ship is around 700,000 Euros a week. This does not included expenses, and with all the caviar consumed on similar vessels we would imagine those expenses to be substantial. At 85 meters this Neorion Shipyard build by Alpha Marine has 18 staterooms. Key features are a spa with steam room and indoor jacuzzi, hair saloon, massage room and treatment room. A gym is also included for those who like to move about while on vacation. 34 crew members makes for a healthy crew to guest ratio.

If anyone charter one of these and have an extra room available feel free to contact YachtArea. .
