A yacht charter vacation is all about freedom. Escape everyday life and enjoy the ultimate freedom a yacht charter entails. Standing on the bow of a magnificent vessel and going where you want to go, doing what you want and seeing only what you want to see- that is the true definition of freedom. But, freedom by itself is not enough to completely forget about all the obligations of the everyday grind or the chores, duties and responsibilities one has in the real world.

Freedom Yacht Charter

During the span of your yacht charter holiday, it is completely normal, and even obligatory, to let go of all factors that cause stress in your life, so you could return to your routine refreshed, energized and rejuvenated.

There are many ways how you can relax on a yacht – by yourself or with the help of your dedicated and experienced yacht charter crew. The typical way is to let your crew pamper you with hand-made cocktails, chilled champagne and excellent canapes, while your Michelin-level chef surprises you with exquisite dishes, each one better than the previous.

Regardless of excellent service, there are some things that are more beneficial to overall stress relief while on a yacht charter holiday.

Massages on the main deck aft

Let your crew prepare a relaxing experience by organising massage therapy on the sun deck of your yacht charter. A professional masseuse is an unavoidable part of any luxury charter and a great way to relieve yourself of accumulated stress.

Choose the time of day and the type of massage you would want: an early morning deep tissue therapy, an after-lunch foot rub or a hot stone massage at dusk, followed by a quick dip in the refreshing Croatian Adriatic sea. There is no limit to what kind of massage you can experience – so relax, let go of stress and enjoy.

If there is one discipline that offers a sure way to relax your body and quiet your mind, it is yoga. Whether you are a beginner or an advanced practitioner, a yacht charter is a perfect stage for learning new asanas or trying out advanced moves. Ask your crew to hire a professional yoga instructor, who will offer guided and personalized sessions or practice solo and admire the panorama of the setting sun, against the backdrop of numerous Croatian islands.

Wellness facilities

A yacht charter is a perfect opportunity to spend some time pampering yourself in more ways than one. There are many different wellness options on a yacht charter; depending on the size of the yacht you booked, you can expect facilities like saunas, hammams or spas.

There is also the potential of anchoring near a medicinal mud or medicinal clay beach, so you could benefit from the medicinal properties of famous healing beaches in Croatia. If your charter does not offer certain wellness services, do not worry; your diligent yacht crew can organise an all-inclusive treatment in an on-shore wellness facility, without sacrificing the luxury yacht standard of your charter holiday.

A fully customizable private atmosphere

Wellness, yoga and massages are not the only things that can help guests relax on their charter vacation in Croatia. Some guests prefer just lazying around the yacht, passing between the jacuzzi and the sunbeds, all the while being treated with refreshing cocktails by their diligent yacht crew.

For some, a short and crisp swim in the Croatian Adriatic is all that is needed for replacement; for others, napping in the air-conditioned salon is a favourite choice for stress relief. Whatever your choice may be, know that the yacht and the crew are at your full disposal, ready to totally customize every part of your luxury yacht experience.

Use nature’s help to relieve yourself of stress

Nature’s way of helping travellers relax in Croatia are subtle, yet they work wonders over longer periods of time. The Croatian sea has definite healing properties, thanks to its ideal salt levels and incredible cleanliness, while the sun in Croatia is neither too strong nor too weak; if you are careful, you do not even need sunscreen.

This kind of climate affects the floral world as well: countless aromatic and medicinal plants grow in the wild all over the Croatian coastline, releasing essential oils in the air. This property, in combination with warm breezes that carry salt, has unbelievable effects on the respiratory system, to which every Croat can testify.
