About the experience

Explore Zakynthos in absolute style and comfort aboard a luxury yacht designed for unforgettable private escapes. This exclusive cruise offers a unique opportunity to discover some of the island’s most iconic sights, including the spectacular Blue Caves, the world-famous Navagio Beach, and the protected waters of Laganas Bay, home to Greece’s first National Marine Park and one of the Mediterranean’s most important nesting areas for the endangered Caretta Caretta sea turtle.

Your experience begins at 09:00 from the main port of Zakynthos, where a professional crew welcomes you on board for a day dedicated to relaxation, swimming, and effortless luxury. As you cruise along the island’s breathtaking coastline, you can enjoy crystal-clear waters, hidden beaches, and a tailor-made atmosphere with music of your choice, all while taking in the beauty of the Ionian Sea from the privacy of your yacht.

For those wishing to elevate the experience even further, lunch can be arranged at a traditional seaside taverna, where you can enjoy high-quality local cuisine and authentic flavors in a beautiful sea-view setting. At 15:00, you return to the port after a truly memorable day on the water, filled with elegant moments and exceptional scenery.

This yacht is ideal for daily cruises of up to 18 guests, accompanied by captain, co-skipper, and hostess, while also offering accommodation for 2 guests on overnight escapes. The exterior spaces are designed for both relaxation and entertaining, featuring a large hardtop with electric sliding roof, generous shaded areas, an exclusive hydraulic swimming platform, refrigerators, an ice maker, mini galley, outdoor shower, and spacious lounge areas at both the cockpit and bow.

Inside, the yacht combines refined style with the comfort of a private retreat. Two beautifully appointed master cabins with en-suite bathrooms and separate shower areas create an inviting and elegant atmosphere, while the interior also includes a fully equipped kitchen, a stylish salon, ample storage, air conditioning, freshwater system, and onboard entertainment. Spacious, sophisticated, and thoughtfully designed, this yacht offers a seamless blend of luxury, comfort, and unforgettable cruising around Zakynthos.

    Steve and his captain and crew were awesome…we would highly recommend their experience while in Zakynthos. the beaches we went to were beautiful and unforgettable and we would definitely go again upon our return. The value was outstanding and the expense really is the fuel costs. all of us were so happy, including our kids!

    What a day was had! We were a family of 15 on the yacht Monica (13 adults & 2 children) with each one of us having the most enjoyable day on board. The communication with Steve from start to finish was faultless. The crew on board were excellent, professional, informative & all with amazing hospitality. The tour was wonderful, seeing the southern part of the island & the stops we made to swim were breathtaking. We also requested to stop & take lunch off board the yacht, we asked the crew to book somewhere they recommended & wow their choice was unbelievable! Lunch at Porto Roma was stunning. In all my family & I would thoroughly recommend Steve & his crew if you are looking for a day to remember! Thank you all once again 🩵

    We received a great welcome and the boat captains were fantastic! Overall, the tour was fun, but there were a few minor things that definitely need improvement for the high price. There were 19 of us (15 adults and 4 children), which is rather cozy on board for that number; the boat should have been bigger. There was wine and soft drinks, but far too few snacks (mini sandwiches and fruit, unfortunately so few that not everyone even got a bite, with hungry children on board - better bring something). We would have expected more for the number of people on a 6-hour trip with swimming stops. There's no beer, but you can bring your own. Otherwise, everything went smoothly, and we were dropped off right on time. Steve even organized a taxi for us. The tour, however, started at 9 a.m., not 10 a.m. as described.

    We had a wonderful day on the yacht! The crew on board was super friendly, attentive, and absolutely professional – we felt completely taken care of. The yacht itself was beautiful and very well equipped. We especially appreciated the fresh fruit, soft drinks, and wine that were provided and even served to us – it made the experience feel extra special. During our 6-hour tour, we made three amazing swimming stops. The water was incredibly clear and truly a highlight! The route took us to the southern part of the island. It’s important to know that even though the tour lasts 6 hours, you only see a small part of the island – something to keep in mind when booking. We also weren’t asked in advance which route we would prefer, which is something that could be improved. Communication beforehand could have been a bit better. I had to ask for a lot of information myself. It would be helpful if a standard message with all the important details was sent out automatically after booking – that would make things much easier. Still, I would absolutely recommend this tour! For us, it was definitely the highlight of our vacation. We were 12 people and the size of the yacht was perfect for our group. Thank you for this amazing experience!

    Steve was very communicative regards the boat and location. The crew Christina and Demitri and captain I could not recommend enough. Christina especially went above and beyond to make me and my family and kids welcomed and tended to our every need. Demitri was very knowledgeable about the places to go and also extremely helpful. The captain was obviously extremely experienced and professional. My family had such a good day that we booked again the next day to do the north side of the island after doing the south the first day and also managed to see the turtles. 🐢 These are the best team on the island and I guarantee you will have an amazing trip if you go with these guys. 5 ⭐️ experience. Thank you so much from me and the family. Xxx

    Please be aware. We rented this boat from Steven for 2 days with sleepover and I regret to inform it was a mixed experience. Fist I want to praise the hostess and captain of this boat, they were fantastic! So professional, friendly, humble and helpful it made all the difference to our trip! Thank you! Sadly the complete opposite is true about Steven the boat owner. Unfortunately he’s only nice and makes and effort until you have paid (all upfront). 1. We were told by Steven that the boat was in excellent condition. However, it had to severe problems that ruined our trip; The boat had a very loud high pitch whine when cruising, causing discomfort and headache. The boat did not have good batteries so it could not even stay a single night without connecting mainline electricity only available in some specific harbour. We had agreed to stay overnight in/near Fiscardo port because we really wanted to enjoy an evening there with our friends who stayed there. But after paying the full amount we were told this was not possible! Due to no mainline electricity available. So we were forced to leave at 6pm to a port 45 min away. Consequently we only had 15 min in Fiscardo and no time to spend with our friends there. Our friends were to join us on the boat the morning after, but since we were now 45 min away they had to pay 70€ a taxi van to drive them early in the morning to this port. Steven refused to refund the 70€ taxi fee regardless of him breaking our agreement to stay in/near Fiskardo. A decision which ruined our visit to Fiskardo and our dinner night with our friends. Due to poor maintainance of the boat and Steven’s unethical behaviour I’m writing this review to warn others, if he fixes the whine noise and batteries then it’s a good boat and lovely crew, but do NOT pay in full in advance. It’s the only leverage you have to ensure Steven keep the agreement and takes responsibility.

    This boat was amazing! Booking was easy and Steve walked us through all options to save us money where possible. The captain took us to the most beautiful places we’ve ever seen, gave us privacy when needed and guidance/information along the way. They made sure we had whatever we needed, food/drinks/etc. Worth every penny!!!!

    What an amazing boat tour we had! When we arrived to the marina Steve (the owner) and his crew were there to greet us and get us settled onto the yacht. They were very friendly and welcoming and offered refreshments right away. Captain Antonis was phenomenal with his boat skills. He took us to the Keri caves where he steered the 48ft. long yacht right into some of the caves so we could take some gorgeous pictures inside the caves with their clear blue waters. We made many stops along the southern coast where we jumped off the boat and swam near Mitzithres and Turtle island. He then took us to Piscines beach where it was the bluest and clearest waters you’d ever seen! The crew was very informative and talked to us about the history of turtle island and other areas and they also served us with wine, beer, snacks and sandwiches. On the yacht they also had floaties, pool noodles and snorkels for the kids to play with in the water. They had many juices, pop and snacks for the kids as well. The yacht was spacious and easily fit all 11 of us. At one point we all sat together at the front of the boat as it sped across the ocean! It really was beautiful and the most amazing day we had on our trip! Highly recommend this yacht and crew to anyone visiting Zakynthos!

    From communication, to the staff on the boat- absolutely 10/10. we wouldn’t have changed a thing. We had 4 kids on board, aged 10, 6 and 18 months old and the staff were brilliant. They let the kids have a drive of the boat, the steps down to the water were excellent. Fresh sandwiches and fruit on board everytime we come in from the water and drinks served to us all day. Can’t thank the staff enough! Made our day amazing. Thanks again Steve and the whole team :)

    We had an excellent time. We were able to explore and enjoy every minute of our Journey. The crew of Adonis, Demetris and Christine were fabulous. We were like a family. We enjoyed hosting dinner at their favorite restaurants and made them part of our family from the start. The level of attention, care and hospitality goes both ways. We could not have dome anything different to make this any better. It was the best!!!! Having said all that, the next time you charter PLEASE treat them not as paid servants but as extended family. The last words I remember my wife saying as we departed on our final day was "Christine, thanks for being the daughter I never had". It was heartfelt and one can never express the happiness of both Crew and customers with the same level of excitement. They went beyond to show their appreciation as did we. What a GREAT trip.

    We had amazing time on the boat, it was the highlight of our holiday, the boat is super fast and large, accommodating 12-14 persons, the crew was so nice, discreet and professional, they were flexible with our plans and take good care of the children's safety (we had 7 children in the group starting 4 years old). The stop for lunch was pre-booked and the North trip is absolutely a must have. Go and see Navagio from the see, it is wonderful. We had several stops for swimming and caves. I also appreciated the instant response of Steve and the good price that he gave us from the start, it was the best offer, comparing with others. So, we are fully recommend it! It was a blast!

    The staff was very kind and attentive, they are not to blame for anything. The problem is the boat owner who was "sly" and charged us double the advertised price in extras that were not mentioned anywhere. It was a terrible experience and we felt wronged.

The boat trip was amazing up the east coast of Kefelonia. And then lunch on Ithaca. We lots of swimming and diving in between. The crew led by Captain Antonis supported by Dimitris and Christina were excellent nothing was to much trouble. Thank you all for the memories??️?

    I appreciate Steve and his boat and the trip was a good experience. The boat looks very good and the staff was super helpful. Good Nespresso on-board :) I only have one regret: the captain did not want (despite several requests) to go a bit faster (than 18-20 knots), saying it is electronically blocked. Even if this would have been truth, i regret because looking on such kind of boats I was expecting a more powerful experience, nut just “a walk”. Other recommendations: glasses for sparkling wine (not the basic plastic ones).

    We had an outstanding experience spending the day on this yacht. The crew was professional and prepared to make us comfortable and happy with drinks and snacks. The moving swim platform was so great for taking a nice swim. Many beautiful sights of caves and awesome cliffs to see around the area and it was great to be away from the crowded areas especially as we came in for the day on a cruise ship. Smooth seas in the area. I highly recommend Steve and his yacht.

    The whole experience was incredible from start to finish. Steve and his onboard team were unbelievably attentive and accommodating. The boat was spotlessly clean and had everything we required. We had 3 swim stops, each one accompanied with snacks; fresh fruit, savoury biscuits, sandwiches, along with a wide range of refreshments. The swim platform at the back of the boat is an excellent facility, especially for nervous swimmers/snorkelers, disabled people, children - or anyone who simply takes a little longer to get used to the water temperature!! Absolutely perfect day out and would not hesitate to do it all again!
