Yacht Charter vs Cruise Ship

Jumping Off of a Yacht

Luxury destinations, unparalleled service, gourmet cuisine, and an abundance of activities are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to comparing a crewed charter experience to a cruise ship vacation. As you read on you will discover how a yacht charter differs from a cruise ship vacation in more detail and how freedom, control, and comfort combine to produce the ultimate getaway.

-Privacy-

One of the greatest advantages of a luxury yacht charter is complete privacy! You personally select the people who join you onboard. Only your invited guests and a small dedicated crew will be joining you on your dream vacation. Rather than experience the hustle and bustle of a large crowd, why not build your memories in complete seclusion from the outside world?

-Freedom-

When chartering a luxury yacht, the yacht is yours for the entirety of the charter, meaning you are not only a guest, but you are also in control of the itinerary, shore excursions, and daily schedule. While aboard a cruise ship, any outings you choose to participate in are pre-planned with prepared itineraries, meaning you must abide by time constraints to avoid being left onshore. These readily prepared itineraries are rarely deviated from leaving you with no alternative but to comply with the rules. Onboard a yacht charter, no itinerary is set in stone, you have total control of your itinerary, food choices, budget, and daily schedule. If you want to wake up and spend a long day soaking up the sun on a secluded beach, you can do just that. With a yacht charter, as long as you return the yacht by the agreed-upon time and location, you are free to set your course as you please.

-Personalized Service-

A crewed charter yacht can often exceed a crew to guest ratio of one-to-one, with skilled crew members on board trained to a professional level of 5-star service. Often, it is the crew that makes the charter, and with a dedicated Stewardess on hand to ensure your glasses are topped, the service is incomparable to that of a cruise ship. A cruise ship often carries less than half the crew to passengers meaning a personalized service is far less likely as crew members will have far more guests to attend to.
