Luxury yacht charter Monaco

The fullest expression of a Riviera charter — flawless crew, chef and detail.

A luxury charter is measured in details: a crew that anticipates, a chef who plans around your tastes, a captain who finds the quiet anchorage when the coast is busy. We curate each element rather than simply book a boat.

From a Monaco departure we shape an itinerary that balances the glamour of Monte-Carlo and Saint-Tropez with the calm of the Lérins and the Italian coast.

For the most discerning guests a luxury super yacht charter brings a hand-picked crew, a private chef and a Riviera itinerary built entirely around you.

What makes a charter truly luxury

Luxury at sea is not the size of the yacht but the quality of the experience around it. It is the crew who remember how you take your coffee, the captain who slips into a quiet cove when the next bay is crowded, the stewardess who has your favourite rosé chilled before you think to ask. We curate every element — yacht, crew, chef and itinerary — rather than simply confirm a booking, because the difference between a good charter and an unforgettable one lives entirely in the detail.

That standard runs from the first enquiry to the last morning aboard. We brief the crew on your preferences in advance, anticipate the small things that make a week effortless, and stay reachable throughout so any wish, however last-minute, is handled quietly and well.

Dining at sea: the private chef

On a luxury charter the galley becomes a private restaurant. Your chef plans menus around your tastes, sources the best of the coast's markets — Ligurian seafood, Provençal produce, cheeses and wines from small growers — and serves whatever the day calls for, from a barefoot lunch at anchor to a formal dinner under the stars. Dietary needs, allergies and children's tastes are all accommodated as a matter of course.

Wine pairings, celebration cakes, a champagne sundowner on the foredeck: tell us the occasion and the chef and chief stewardess build the table around it. Provisioning is handled through the APA and accounted for in full, so the only thing you notice is how well you eat.

Concierge, ashore and afloat

A luxury charter reaches beyond the passerelle. Our concierge books the hard-to-get table on the Croisette, reserves beach-club daybeds at Pampelonne, arranges helicopter transfers from Nice, secures event tickets and tenders you ashore for dinner and back without a thought for parking or timing. Spa therapists, photographers, dive instructors and toys can all be brought aboard.

The aim is a week with no friction: you express a wish and it is arranged, whether that is a private tour of a hilltop village, a berth for a special evening in a particular port, or a surprise for someone celebrating aboard.

Privacy and discretion

For many guests the greatest luxury is privacy. A chartered yacht is a private world — no lobby, no other guests, no schedule but your own. Crews are chosen for discretion as much as skill, accustomed to high-profile guests and to the unwritten rule that what happens aboard stays aboard. Anchorages can be chosen for seclusion, and arrivals and departures timed to avoid the crowds.

We handle bookings and logistics with the same confidentiality, so your plans remain your own from first enquiry to final farewell.

Curating the yacht and crew

Not every beautiful yacht has a great crew, and on a luxury charter the crew is everything. We draw on long relationships and first-hand knowledge to shortlist yachts whose captains and interior teams have a reputation for excellence, then match them to your party — a warm, family-friendly crew for a multi-generation week; a polished, formal one for corporate hosting or a milestone celebration.

We are candid about each yacht's strengths and its quirks, so you choose with full knowledge rather than from a brochure. The result is a vessel and a team that genuinely suit the week you have in mind.

A tailored Riviera itinerary

From Monaco we shape a route that balances the glamour of Monte-Carlo, Cannes and Saint-Tropez with the calm of the Lérins islands and the Italian coast toward Portofino. Each day is built around you — a long lunch at anchor, an afternoon of water toys, an evening ashore in a chosen port — and the captain adjusts to the weather so you are always in the right place at the right time.

Special requests are the norm, not the exception: a particular restaurant, a quiet bay for a proposal, a fast passage to catch an event. We design two or three draft itineraries and refine the one that fits.

Occasions a luxury charter suits

A luxury charter rises to almost any occasion. Families take a week that moves at the pace of every generation, with sheltered swim spots for children and quiet evenings for the adults. Couples mark anniversaries and honeymoons with secluded anchorages and dinners under the stars. Groups of friends combine glamorous nights ashore with lazy days at sea, and companies host clients in a setting no restaurant can match.

Whatever the reason for the week, the planning is the same: we listen to what matters most to you, choose the yacht and crew that fit, and build the detail around the occasion so the charter feels made for you — because it is.
