A DAY ON THE YACHT

As you walk up the dock in a Croatian marina, searching for INSIEME yacht charter and pondering the next week-or-so of an exciting yachting holiday in Croatia, you will surely be impressed by the exterior profile of your yacht charter, once you first spot her from afar.

She will imbue you with a sense of stability and utter surety, as well as comfort and performability, with her sleek hull and elegant superstructure.

Your charter crew will be awaiting your arrival on the dock with perfectly-chilled champagne, cold strawberries, and icy towels, so your vacation can start in a way fitting for a yacht charter holiday.

As the crew take your baggage onboard, talk to the stewardess about which guest will sleep in which cabin – it is common for families with children to place their kids in the twin bunk cabin, with the rest of the parents dividing the double cabins. Either way, when everyone is satisfied, the stew will showcase the sundeck, which will be one of your favourite places aboard INSIEME yacht charter.

This is because it provides a second alfresco dining option, as well as plenty of places to sunbathe AND a jacuzzi, all on a yacht under 30 meters, which is a really amazing feat – you get more than you bargained for if you decide to book INSIEME yacht charter.

Sit down at the sundeck alfresco dining table just as INSIEME starts to heat up her engines- the captain will be sailing off shortly, so this is a perfect time to instruct him on a specific course or let the local know-how of your crew take to only the most beautiful places, reserved only for the locals who know their exact location.

Your captain might suggest cruising to the ancient walls of Dubrovnik in the south Adriatic sea or exploring the island of Korčula and its neighbouring isle of Lastovo, which is also a Natural Park.

If you are hungry, there are plenty of food options available, like sushi or canapes, but the main delight will arrive at lunchtime, made with love and care by your Michelin-level chef.
Let your crew open a bottle of excellent Croatian white wine, that will go splendid with tuna tartare with tartar sauce, followed by a grilled salmon with spinach, balsamic vinegar and thyme. For dessert, you can ask for something similar to an almond and coconut cake, with sweet lime syrup.

Filling up on this food will not weigh you down, so you can be ready to hit the water in a matter of minutes. Take full advantage of both the clarity and the cleanliness of the Croatian Adriatic sea and the multitude of different water toys available on INSIEME yacht charter. Listen to the safety tips of your expert crew and spend hours of fun in the water, exploring the seabed or flying above the waves.

Either way, adrenaline and excitement will not be lacking, but for those inclined towards a more relaxed way of spending time, the sunbathing matrasses on INSIEME`s sundeck are an excellent choice if you want to work on your tan. If you want to gather the entire charter party for a joint activity, tell your crew to organize a beach picnic on a private and secluded beach. Plenty of champagne and snacks will keep you full until dinner, while you explore your chosen beach.

On the other hand, you could find a comfortable place under the shade of pine trees and take a nap – truly a genuine indication of an excellent holiday.

As you spend your day in relaxing activities, you will be surprised at how time flies; seemingly unnoticed, the sun begins to set, signalling that it is almost time for dinner. Return to your cabin and prepare your evening attire, before you choose where you want to dine. The sundeck is excellent if you want to enjoy a beautiful view, but a more traditional choice of the main deck offers a chance for an aperitif in the interior salon. Either way, dinner will be served where you want it.

As with lunch, the chef will astound you with the quality of the food being served, as well as the presentation and the plating. Starting with hand-made guacamole served with homemade pita bread, you will surely enjoy pork tenderloins with sweet mashed potato and fried bacon bits, finishing off with hand-made vanilla ice cream with mascarpone cream.

In the evening, after your dinner, you could plan a night around your yacht charter. Consider imitating locals, who simply love to skinnydip in the evening, or just go out for a nice and relaxing swim. This could be somewhat problematic because the sea can be intimidating in the evening; unless your yacht was fitted with underwater LED light, and luckily, INSIEME yacht charter just has that kind of amenity.

Turn the underwater lights on and enjoy the instant transformation: the sea around your yacht charter will glow in a warm blue-ish light, which will seem like your personal pool, right in the middle of the sea. Since your hardworking crew will constantly keep an eye out for your safety, there is no reason why not to experience this unique feature of your yacht, firsthand.

Afterwards, warm yourself up in the sundeck jacuzzi, alongside excellent hand-made cocktails, which will be provided by your loving crew.

YACHT CHARTER DINING

Every successful charter story starts with fantastic food, and a Croatian yacht holiday on INSIEME yacht charter will be no different. Your chef will dedicate his heart and soul, as well as his knowledge and experience, to presenting only food that is up to par with Michelin standards.

This means that all raw ingredients will have an eco-friendly certificate, as well as a purely organic origin. Your chef will provision at farmer`s markets, as well as visit fishing boats in the break of dawn, to acquire only the freshest fish.

Applying his great knowledge and skill, the chef will transform these excellent ingredients into incredible, mouth-watering delicacies, worthy of a yacht charter holiday in Croatia. Dishes like special Croatian cheese from Pag island and salted prosciutto dried on winter Bora winds, Adriatic tuna steak with black beans, parmesan cheese and steamed vegetables or a traditional Croatian apple strudel, made by following centuries-old recipes.

The galley aboard INSIEME yacht charter is capable of delivering incredibly delicious dishes, thanks to modern appliances and smart use of space and storage. When an expert chef is handed a high-tech and well-equipped galley, you can expect nothing less than Michelin-level quality of food.

This includes dishes like sea bass carpaccio with rosemary and tomato and olive oil drizzle or a smoked salmon prepared with sage hazelnut butter, roasted carrots and hand-made yoghurt. Whatever your preferred style of cuisine might be, know that you will eat only your favourite foods during your yacht charter vacation in Croatia.

YACHT MAIN DECK

Since INSIEME yacht charter is a Princess-made yacht, she hides many innovative deck solutions and smart interior design features, that will enable this yacht to provide the same type of service as do yachts of 35+ meters.

When stepping onto INSIEME yacht charter, you will be greeted by your crew on the main deck aft with a welcoming glass of champagne, next to the alfresco dining table. This will be a perfect place for future alfresco dining experiences, mostly due to the huge fold-out table and a comfortable lounge sofa, stretching the length of the stern. Another feature on the main deck aft is a foldable bimini canvass, which can protect the entire main deck aft from the sun, while also enabling unobstructed airflow.

From the aft portion of the main deck, you can walk around the entire length of the deck and reach the bow sundeck.

FRONT SUNDECK

This area is perfect for relaxing in the sun and enjoying the unobstructed views of the turquoise Adriatic sea. Just in front of the helm windshield, guests can sit and relax in a charming lounging nook, in form of a long sofa moulded into the superstructure frame and a compact coffee table.

This coffee table serves as a connection for the forward-facing sun mattresses, which are a crucial part of the whole arrangement, allowing guests to be part of a bigger group. While your friends are drinking their cocktails sitting down, you could be exchanging jokes and sunbathing simultaneously. These kinds of innovative sundeck solutions are what make Princess Yachts one of the best builders of luxury yachts in the world.

Yacht charter accommodation: main salon & dining area

Returning from the front sundeck back to the main deck aft, guests can use the starboard staircase to climb up to the flybridge or enter into the interior main deck salon, but not before one last drink at the exterior bat, right next to the entrance to the salon.

Entering the interior, be swept off your feet by the ingenuity and beauty of the interior design aboard INSIEME yacht charter. The portside of the salon is reserved for a big lounge arrangement, consisting of 2 L-shaped sofas with a cabinet connecting them in the middle and a very wide coffee table in the centre.

Feel the light atmosphere of the salon, thanks to big windows that illuminate the entire space and soft colours that complement the natural vibe of the space. Beige and white tones are dominant in the decor, with soft gray carpets and creme ceiling leather panels.

The starboard side is reserved for the pop-up Tv, which transforms this space into a potential entertainment centre, best used for watching family movies or your favourite sports game. Forward from the sofa lounge area is the interior salon dining table. Since the galley is right next to the dining area, expediting food and beverages will be swift and easy for the crew, and enjoyable for the guests.

There is a second staircase, leading up the flybridge, located opposite the dining table, on the starboard side. From this staircase, guests arrive at the bow of the main deck and the interior helm station. There is a small dinette in the portside corner of this area, where you can chat with members of your crew about the best places to visit in Croatia.

YACHT FLYBRIDGE

Guests can access the flybridge either via the starboard staircase on the main deck aft or the interior staircase, across the salon dining table on the main deck. Once you are standing on INSIEME`s flybridge, it will not be difficult to conclude why this is the favourite place among charter guests.

The aft section of the flybridge carries the tender; once the tender is launched with the hydraulic crane, lots of space opens up to be used as a surface for staying active on your charter holiday, by letting your crew improvise a yacht gym or hiring a yoga instructor for some enjoyable yoga exercises.

Forward from the aft section of the flybridge, on the portside, is a very smart jacuzzi+sunpad combo, with the sun pads half-encircling the jacuzzi, which is placed centerline. This solution allows for plenty of legroom and for good communication between the aft and bow portions of the flybridge, while still providing an enviable level of luxurious comfort.
A fully-functioning wet bar is located starboard, which will be your go-to place for cocktails and champagne, while spending time in the comforts of the jacuzzi.

Let your dedicated charter crew pamper you, always making sure your glass is full and you have something to nibble on. Across the bar, on the portside, is a second alfresco dining option, consisting of a C-shaped sofa and a coffee table, with movable chairs on the opposite side of the table. On the bow of the flybridge is the exterior helm station, a perfect place to stand and look at the horizon, as INSIEMENE yacht charter cruises towards new adventures.

YACHT LOWER DECK

All the guest`s accommodations on INSIEME yacht charter are located on the lower deck and are made up of 1 master stateroom, 1 VIP cabin, 1 double cabin and 1 twin cabin with bunk beds.

Yacht Charter Accommodation: The master stateroom

The master stateroom is located amidship on the lower deck, enabling the floor plan to be full-beam. This means that the master aboard INSIEME yacht charter can compete with cabins on much bigger yachts, thanks to smart design and clever use of space.

There is a full-sized walk-in closet on the port side and a long work table next to it, excellent for either reading, writing, answering emails or applying make-up. The centrally-placed king-sized berth has a nightstand on either side and will provide comfortable rest during the entire span of your yacht charter holiday in Croatia.

The ensuite is also very generous in size, incorporating a double sink, with a bidet, a head and a big shower cabin. The decor of the ensuite is stunning: a black marble sink countertop with a black mosaic made up of polished stone squares.

Yacht Charter Accommodation: The VIP cabin

The VIP cabin is placed in the bow of the lower deck, ensuring a high level of privacy, as well as good sound insulation from the engines. Beige matte wood cabinetry, complemented by daylight, adorns the walls on either side of the berth, providing plenty of storage.

There are sloped walls and plenty of portholes on both sides, ensuring that the cabin stays filled with natural light throughout the day. A walk-in wardrobe on the portside and an ensuite bathroom on the starboard side ensure that the VIP cabin offers everything a guest should need on their holiday.

Yacht Charter Accommodation: The double cabin (convertible)

The double cabin aboard INSIEME yacht charter is a convertible, meaning guests can choose one queen-sized berth or two regular twin berths, depending on the convenience of the guests and the charter party.

When it comes to design, light brown cabinetry and plenty of storage space enable a pleasant stay for any guest who will find their accommodations in the convertible double cabin aboard INSIEME yacht charter.

There are 2 portholes on the starboard side which ensure this cabin stays bathed in light during the day, with smartly integrated LED lights providing soft and welcoming illumination during evenings.

Yacht Charter Accommodation: The twin cabin

Decorated similarly to the rest of the cabins aboard INSIEME yacht charter, the twin is a snug cabin, equipped with everything needed for a prolonged charter holiday in Croatia.
Since the twin berths are arranged in a bunk combination, this accommodation suits children the best, because they can appreciate this fun and unusual sleeping arrangement.
The twin is even equipped with a regular-sized closet, as well as an ensuite bathroom.

YACHT BEACH CLUB & SWIMMING PLATFORM

The beach club and swimming platform are connected with the main deck aft with double staircases, one on either side of the hull. This enables a smooth flow of communication and traffic between the decks, effectively transforming the entire aft section of INSIEME yacht charter into one big beach club.

There is enough space for several guests to swap between water toys without causing any jams, while still enjoying cocktails, prepared by your loving crew. The swimming platform usually carries the jet ski, but once the jet ski is launched, the area transforms into one wide space, ideal for developing a personal connection with the turquoise Croatian Adriatic sea.

Sit on the edge of the swimming platform with your feet in the refreshing sea and chit-chat with members of your charter party that are either playing with water toys or just taking a refreshing dip, before continuing with their sunbathing session. If you do not mind leaning back against the hull of INSIEME yacht charter, you can also enjoy a sunbathing session on the swimming platform.

YACHT WATER TOYS & WATER SPORTS

You can expect to experience different levels of thrill and enjoyment on the water, with the aid of INSIEME`s water toys. Starting with 8 sets of snorkeling equipment, which is enough for every member of your charter party to gear up and undertake an expedition of exploration along the shoreline of some quaint Croatian island.

Prepare to discover numerous aquatic treasures, hidden in the lively seabed, like fish schools of different sizes and colours, as well as starfish, sea urchins and sea cucumbers – even bio-luminescent plankton in the evenings.

The Croatian Adriatic sea welcomes all explorers with its warm waters which allow snorkelers to enjoy longer periods of time underwater. There are also 2 Sea bobs, which can be combined with the snorkeling gear to create magnificent underwater experiences similar to flight. Explore the azure seabed by moving like a fish, thanks to your electrically-powered Sea bob and discover first-hand all the wonders hidden beneath the waves.

For a swifter and more thrilling ride, opt for the jet ski or waterskis, both of which will provide enjoyment and excitement for any charter guests who will dare to climb aboard and be swept away by the call for adventure on the high seas.

Finally, two stand-up paddleboards will be a good counterweight to the speed and thrill of the jet ski or the waterskis – flow softly and slowly through the water and experience the true meaning of “meditative”; paddle on the still surface of the sea and let your body and mind harmonize, thanks to the rejuvenating effect of the Adriatic.
