The best luxury charter yachts for under €50k

Seas to See is the perfect option for families with children in tow. The VIP cabin has a partition that can be fully closed off from the main cabin and converts the seating area to Pullman bunks to create a 'mini cabin'. An enclosed cockpit meanwhile keeps little ones from wandering too close to the edge of the swim platform. The 28 metre yacht for charter carries a Great Tow tender for fishing excursions away from the boat, or guests can take advantage of the cockpit for a spot of trolling while underway. Cruising the Caribbean year-round, her interior is finished with tropical printed cushions.

Seas to See is available for charter with Worth Avenue Yachts from $36,000 per week.

First launched by Brooke Marine in 1939, Eros is a classic charter yacht with a colourful past, having previously been owned by Greek shipping magnate Stavros Niarchos and chartered by the former King of Spain Juan Carlos I during his royal honeymoon. The 31.39 metre sailing yacht retains many of her original features such as the teak panelling in the dining saloon and classic wooden helm, while her refitted interiors maintain a sense of gilded age charm with distinctly art-deco features. Up to eight guests and five crew can be accommodated on board, with the al fresco dining table offering the perfect spot to socialise over dinner. Other highlights on board Eros that will rival pricier yachts include her well-stocked toybox, which carries kayaks, deep-sea fishing equipment, paddleboards, gear for waterskiing and wakeboarding and more.

Eros is available to charter with Classic Charters, with a weekly rate starting from $42,000.

Lady Soul's wide open deck spaces boast sunpads, loungers, an al fresco dining table, barbecue and a capacious lounge area, perfect for sunset cocktails. The 30.9 metre superyacht also has a toy box brimming with gadgets and gizmos to ensure maximum fun can be had on the water. Below deck, Lady Soul can sleep up to 10 guests in five cabins with accommodation for a crew of five. Guests can unwind and catch up in a spacious wood-panelled main saloon with plenty of comfy seating and a dining area, or the elegant skylounge complete with corner sofa and office area.

Lady Soul is managed for by Fraser with charters starting from €49,000 per week.

Twelve guests can be accommodated in Martina’s five cabins, making her an ideal yacht for parties and larger families. The 30 metre yacht, which can reach a top speed of 27 knots, is managed by six crew members and can be found cruising the East Med. Martina features Indoor and outdoor dining areas and sports a classic, wood-finished interior design. Delivered by Falcon in 2002, she was last refitted in 2016. The best part about chartering Martina is that your holiday can be used for good; each year a percentage of the yacht’s charter revenues are donated to support non-profit organisations that protect marine life.

Martina is managed for charter by Atalanta Golden Yachts with a weekly charter rate starting at €45,000.
