3 Yacht Charter Must See Destinations | Luxury yacht charter

Posted on

TRIP ADVISOR IMAGES

Our friends at Trip Advisor recently sent us an email.  “Stunning images of 20 awe-inspiring places you must see.”  Most importantly, their members select the locations.

Several of the spots were accessible by yacht.  Additionally, they are easily accessed by land during a luxury yacht charter vacation.

 

FIRST FAVORITE YACHT CHARTER DESTINATION OF 3

PULPIT ROCK – Ryfylke, Norway.

The Pulpit Rock (“Preikestolen” in Norwegian) soars 604 meters over the Lysefjord. This flat mountain plateau was most likely carved and formed from melting ice over 10,000 years ago.

Fjord yacht charters in the summertime certainly remain a popular choice.  Uniquely among European customers from neighboring Soviet countries. 
The Schooner sail yacht MONTIGNE  often offers Norway yacht charter vacations in the summertime.  Her builder is Aegean Yachts.  The 2009 super yacht MONTIGNE is a 57 meter (187 foot) three-masted staysail schooner. She accommodates 12 guests.

Her yacht charter rates start at $140,000 USD per week, plus expenses.

SECOND FAVORITE DESTINATION OF 3

PLITVICE LAKES – Plitvice Lakes National Park, Croatia.

Founded in 1949, Plitvice is the largest national park in Croatia. Above all, it draws more than 1,200,000 visitors annually.  The park situates in the mountainous area of central Croatia. The national park connects the Croatian inland with the Adriatic coastal region. Most importantly, this is a highly popular yachting destination. On the positive side, the interest in Croatia yacht charters continues to grow.

In view of, each summer, clients look for alternatives to the crowded anchorages and overpriced marinas in France and Italy.Aerial photograph of mountains, green trees, turquoise water, and waterfalls flowing from the lakes

Motor yacht AIR, Benetti MINE GAMES, and James Bond boat, DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER, all spend time cruising the waters of the Adriatic yacht charter coastline.

THIRD FAVORITE YACHT CHARTER DESTINATION OF 3  

SANTORINI – Cyclades, Greece.

You see photographs of blinding-white buildings with blue roofs. These are juxtaposed against a backdrop of the Mediterranean Sea.  In other words, chances are that you are seeing Santorini.  The views of the sea from the terraces of the ancient towns along the cliffs are mesmerizing.  
Arguably the most famous island in Greece, Santorini is easily reachable by yacht.  Its location is just 120 miles southeast from Greece’s mainland.

Excellence Abounds on Abeking and Rasmussen Yacht

Posted on

PRESENTING EXCELLENCE V

Today we shine the spotlight on the Abeking & Rasmussen yacht EXCELLENCE V.   She is the 5th vessel in an eponymous line of highly successful superyachts.

 

THE SUPERYACHT EXPERIENCE™

German-built, this 60 meter lady combines elegant design with a sense of space.  She stretches far beyond her physical dimensions.  Indeed, the interior volumes of motoryacht EXCELLENCE V  are far more common on Mediterranean yacht charter vessels in the 70 to 75 meter range.  She is a beautiful yacht who delivers The Superyacht Experience™ by 1-800 Yacht Charters to discerning clients.

HER DESIGN

The owner turns to London based Reymond Langton Design to develop a special design approach. For instance, where space is optimally utilized to meet charter guests’ needs. This approach is most evident within the guest staterooms. The master is located on the upper deck.  In addition, more staterooms are situated on the main fore deck. These sleeping quarters offer interesting concepts.  For example, large windows, spaciousness, and easy accessibility.

 

THE YACHT EXTERIOR

The exterior of the yacht embodies the sense of space provided in the interior.  Her sleek lines, navy blue hull, and white superstructure portray a classic style with a contemporary feel.

Architecturally, major design amenities include:

  • Beach club to starboard

  • Port-side gym and massage room
  • Onboard Cinema
  • Aft swimming and dive platform

 

FLEXIBILITY AND COMFORT

A further example of the yacht’s reverence to flexibility and comfort is the tender launching area, which can be directly accessed from the double suite aft of the master stateroom [perfect for discreet getaways, without disturbing other onboard guests].

 

INTERIOR STYLE

Overall, her interior style is sophisticated and grand.  A central elevator connects all five decks, while a spiral staircase provides access to each interior level. Glossy dark wooden wall panels frame the staircase, and natural stone floors complete the elegant feel.

Throughout the saloon and living spaces, soft upholstery and cushions, and curvy furniture are blended together in colors of grays, light beige and hints of red.

 

HER WARMTH

The same colors, warmth, and intimate feel of the interior flow outward to the exterior lounge areas. Here L-shaped couches actually face outward, allowing guests to enjoy the sweeping panorama from the uncluttered deck areas.

 

 

FAVORITE DECK

A favorite deck area is the privacy deck directly outside the master stateroom.  Here, the guests can enjoy impressive views from either the large cockpit or the private Jacuzzi tub.  Adjacent lounge pads turn this oasis into a private sun deck for the lead charter guests.

For social gatherings, the yacht offers a wonderfully-appointed sun deck featuring a Jacuzzi tub, wet bar, sun pads, and intimate cockpit area.

 

 

WATERSPORTS TOYS

For active charterers, the yacht holds 4 sets of SCUBA gear (for rendezvous diving), waverunners, SUPs (Stand Up Paddleboards), kayaks, SeaBob, a water trampoline, and many other water sports toys.

Possibilities are endless onboard Abeking & Rasmussen superyacht, EXCELLENCE V.  Charterers will simply be amazed by the space, elegant design, and the variety of options for fun and relaxation.
