3 Greece Catamarans Worth Planning Around

Greece has a way of making yacht charters feel effortless. The islands are close enough for relaxed cruising, the water is clear, the villages are beautiful, and every day can feel completely different from the last.

For travelers considering a private yacht charter in Greece, the right yacht matters. Some groups want speed and deck space. Others want a newer sailing catamaran with a family-friendly setup. Some want a chef-led culinary experience, strong water toys, and a crew that knows the Greek islands well.

Three yachts currently standing out for Greece charters are SAMARA, Stephanie, and Majesty of Greece. Each offers a different style of charter, but all three are strong options for guests who want comfort, privacy, and a thoughtfully crewed experience in the Greek islands.

SAMARA: An 80′ Luxury Power Catamaran With Serious Presence

Best for: Guests who want a power catamaran, Jacuzzi, water toys, and a more motor-yacht-style experience.

SAMARA is an 80-foot luxury power catamaran available for private yacht charters in Greece. Refit in 2025, she offers a spacious layout for up to 8 guests in 4 cabins, with a professional crew of four.

What makes SAMARA stand out is her combination of catamaran stability and motor yacht comfort. She has generous deck space, full air conditioning, onboard Wi-Fi, a Jacuzzi, and an impressive water toy collection that includes 2 jet skis, water skis, a wakeboard, a kayak, paddleboards, snorkeling gear, fishing gear, and an 8-meter Brig tender.

For guests who want to cruise the Greek islands with plenty of space to relax, dine, sunbathe, and play on the water, SAMARA is a strong contender. She works especially well for couples traveling together, families with older children, or a small group celebrating a special occasion.

Her crew is led by Captain Stavros Dritsas, a Greek captain with a lifelong background on the water and a calm, safety-focused approach. The crew also includes Chef Triantafillos Pnevmatikos, Stewardess Meni Ralli, and Deckhand Petros Menelaou.

Charter rate: From €65,000 to €70,000

Stephanie: A Newer Fountaine Pajot Sailing Catamaran for Comfortable Island-Hopping

Best for: Families, couples, and small groups wanting a modern sailing catamaran in Greece.

Stephanie is a 2024 Fountaine Pajot sailing catamaran measuring 66.8 feet. She accommodates up to 8 guests in 4 cabins and is served by a professional Greek crew of four.

Stephanie is a beautiful option for guests who want a newer yacht, a relaxed sailing atmosphere, and the comfort of a catamaran layout. Her full air conditioning, onboard Wi-Fi, open deck spaces, and comfortable interior make her a strong fit for a week of Greek island-hopping.

Her water toy lineup includes adult and children’s water skis, kneeboard, wakeboard, kayak, paddleboards, snorkeling gear, and a Yamaha tender with 70 HP engine. That gives guests plenty to do once the yacht is anchored in a quiet bay.

Stephanie is led by Captain Giannis Gargalos, a Greek captain with experience on yachts and as a sailing instructor. Her crew also includes Chef Artemis Liaskou, Stewardess Dimitra Karousou, and Deckhand Dimitris Siotas.

This yacht feels especially well-suited for families or small groups who want an easy, comfortable, polished charter without going into the larger motor yacht price range.

Charter rate: From €33,500 to €43,500

Majesty of Greece: A Spacious 67′ Catamaran for Up to 10 Guests

Best for: Groups needing 5 queen cabins and space for up to 10 guests.

Majesty of Greece is a 2025 Fountaine Pajot catamaran measuring 67 feet. She accommodates up to 10 guests in 5 queen cabins, making her one of the strongest choices of these three for larger families or groups of couples.

With a crew of four, full air conditioning, onboard Wi-Fi, watermaker, and generous catamaran living spaces, Majesty of Greece is designed for guests who want a comfortable and easygoing Greece charter experience.

Her water toys include adult and children’s water skis, wakeboard, kayaks, paddleboards, snorkeling gear, fishing gear, and a Highfield tender with 60 HP engine.

Captain Thanos Kourtelis leads the crew and brings deep knowledge of the Aegean Sea, sailing experience across the Mediterranean, and a strong technical background. The crew also includes Chef Hector Bitter-Kourounis, Steward George Kourtoglou, and Deckhand Dimos Papoutsakis.

Majesty of Greece is a smart match for groups who need more guest capacity but still want the intimacy, stability, and relaxed atmosphere of a crewed catamaran.

Charter rate: From €34,000 to €48,000

Which Greece Catamaran Is the Best Fit?

Each of these yachts offers something different.

Choose SAMARA if you want the feel of a luxury motor yacht with the space and stability of a catamaran. She is the best fit of the three for guests who want a Jacuzzi, jet skis, and a more powerful cruising experience.

Choose Stephanie if you want a newer sailing catamaran for up to 8 guests with a polished crew, comfortable layout, and strong value for a private Greece charter.

Choose Majesty of Greece if your group needs room for up to 10 guests and wants five queen cabins, a new 2025 build, and a highly comfortable setup for families or couples traveling together.

Don’t Forget! Prices are plus VAT and Advance Provision Allowance

In Greece, yachts operate under a base charter rate + APA (Advanced Provisioning Allowance) + VAT (Value-Added Tax) pricing structure.

The Advance Provision Allowance, APA, typically 25–40% of the charter fee, is a pre-paid amount used to cover variable expenses such as food, beverages, fuel, dockage, and any special requests. The captain manages the APA and will provide you with regular updates on spending throughout your trip.

Any unused funds from the APA will be refunded at the end of the charter or can be applied toward the crew gratuity. If expenses exceed the APA amount—often due to high fuel consumption, running the air conditioning extensively, or premium alcohol preferences—you may be asked to replenish it during the charter.

The VAT in Greece is currently 12–13%, depending on your itinerary and the ports visited.

Why Greece Works So Well for a Catamaran Charter

Large neoclassical building with palm trees in front, open square with pigeons on the ground, and a clear sunny sky—perfect for envisioning your private yacht vacation or Mediterranean yacht charter.
Outdoor Greek café with blue tables and chairs on a stone patio, white buildings, docked boats, and a Greek flag under a blue sky—perfect for enjoying views of crewed yacht charters sailing nearby.
A winding stone path with white edges leads to a small white church with a blue dome, overlooking the sea on a rocky coastline at sunset—the perfect view for an all-inclusive yacht charter or private yacht vacation.

Greece is one of the best destinations in the Mediterranean for a crewed catamaran charter because the experience can be shaped around your group.

A typical itinerary might include quiet morning swims, lunch on deck, an afternoon cruise to a new island, time ashore in a seaside village, and dinner under the stars. Depending on the yacht, weather, and itinerary, guests may explore areas such as the Saronic Islands, Cyclades, Ionian Islands, or other Greek cruising grounds.

Catamarans are especially popular in Greece because they offer excellent space, stability, and access to shallow anchorages. That makes them ideal for guests who want comfort without feeling disconnected from the water.

Planning a Greece Yacht Charter

The best yacht for your group depends on your dates, guest count, budget, cabin needs, and preferred cruising style. Some groups prioritize the newest yacht. Others want the strongest water toy lineup, a certain cabin configuration, or a crew that fits the tone of the trip.

SAMARA, Stephanie, and Majesty of Greece are all strong Greece charter options, but they serve different types of travelers.
