PLAN & OVERVIEW
SeaStar – Beneteau 57 layout
Sea Star was built as the flagship of the Beneteau shipyard and you can feel that the moment you step on board.
The first impression is one of space, with a center cockpit layout that breathes luxury. It feels solid in the water as the sails take up a breeze.
The deck includes teak on the side decks and molded nonskid on the coachroof. Teak provides the best traction possible, especially when wet, and looks great.
The interior is breathtaking. Beneteau did a masterful job of finishing the 57, it looks like a one-off custom boat built in Italy.
The finish is cherry-stained Douka wood, and the sole is Iroko parquet. Padded ceiling sections, carved door frames, halogen lighting throughout and the elegant drape on portlights and roller shades provide design accents to this world-class yacht.

WINING & DINING
Your holiday will include a wonderful mix of meals at island tavernas and succulent meals on board.
Menus aboard are created based on the local cuisine your personal preferences and the fresh ingredients we find in local markets on the islands — there is no standard menu. Every meal is designed to suit your dietary likes and needs.
Before your holiday we’ll ask you to complete a dietary preference to tell us what you like and dislike, and of any dietary restrictions, you and your guests may have.
We’ll also ask what you like to drink, and stock the yacht with your favorite beer, wines, liquors and soft drinks.
Breakfast
Depending on your preferences, we might serve local fruits, juices, freshly brewed coffee and a selection of teas, plus cereals, yogurt and a variety of fresh bread and preserves.
Other options include Greek Pancakes served with Fresh fruit, Crispy Bacon, and Mushrooms, Local honey with yogurt and walnuts, and French Toast served with Fresh Fruit.
Late lunch
Lunches on board are served with Freshly Baked Bread and a Local freshGreen Salad.
XXX
Ice Cold Water and a choice of Soft Drinks, Beer or Wine to accompany.
Sundowners & Cocktails
As the sun starts setting, Walter gets creative with cocktails from his special Daiquiry to the classic Margarita as well as a selection of ‘Virgin’ Cocktails to appeal to all ages. Alexandra takes care of a selection of snacks to accompany Walters cocktail.
Dinner
Most guests like to enjoy local foods in one of the many tavernas that the Greek islands are famous for.
If you feel like staying in or enjoy a night under the stars we are happy to serve dinner on board.
For Kids
Most children enjoy our meals, but we can prepare special dishes for younger guests.
Favorites include freshly made Personal Pizzas, Chicken Nuggets, Blackbeard’s Burger, Caribbean Chicken Kebabs, and Pasta in Paradise.
If we stay on anchor we will prepare dinner on board or we can organize a BBQ on the beach.
HOLIDAY PRICES
The holiday cost varies according to season and destination but starts from € 7700 per week.
Sea Star is normally booked per week starting on Saturday. In low and mid season we can be more flexible with start and end dates and the duration of your trip.
A one-week sailing holiday can be combined with island stays, but to really enjoy the private sailing experience we recommend sailing holidays of two or three-week duration.
A minimum of 2 weeks is required to enjoy the full Mykonos-Santorini experience.
The holiday cost includes two crew, a skipper and hostess/cook, VAT and cleaning. Two changes of towels and bed linen are included per week.
An addition charge is made to cover fuel and provisioning. This is called the APA (Advanced Provisioning Allowance) and averages around 15% of the holiday cost depending on the number of guests and your provisioning wishes.
At the end of your cruise the APA accounting is finalized and you receive a refund or an invoice to make up the exact amount.
To confirm your holiday booking a 50% downpayment is required, with the balance paid one month before departure.
Our cancellation policies can be found in our terms and conditions of booking.
