Lemon Tree

Stats: 61.5 metres, Sanlorenzo, 2021, 12 guests, 16 crew

Highlights: Rest and relaxation are at the heart of all charters on board Lemon Tree, where sun pads abound and a crew of 16 cater to every whim. A barista serves up coffee each morning (which is best enjoyed from the sun deck) while a masseuse is on hand to soothe sore muscles after a day spent rummaging through her toy box. A flexible layout means she can host families of all shapes and sizes, with a convertible that can be used as a playroom for those with little ones in tow. The hardest decision guests will have to make during their stay on Lemon Tree is which of the two pools to swim in first.

Charter rate: From €485,000 per week with Y.CO.
