BELLA STELLA — 45m CRN Ancona for Charter in Athens Riviera
Charter destination
Athens, Greece
About this yacht
BELLA STELLA is a 45-meter motor yacht built in 1987 by the renowned Italian shipyard CRN Ancona, exemplifying the enduring quality and craftsmanship that has defined the builder's reputation for decades. Following a comprehensive 2025 refit, she emerges refreshed with a modern aesthetic while retaining the solid steel hull and spacious proportions characteristic of her pedigree. The interior redesign by designer Sara Economou introduces ocean-inspired art and sophisticated grey tones throughout, creating an inviting atmosphere that blends timeless elegance with contemporary comfort.
Accommodating twelve guests across seven cabins, BELLA STELLA offers exceptional flexibility for family and group charters. The full-beam master suite occupies prime position on the main deck, bathed in natural light and offering commanding views. Four double cabins and two twin cabins on the lower deck have been recently updated with individual en-suite facilities, satellite entertainment systems, and climate control. Each cabin features unique color coordination and full air-conditioning, ensuring personalized comfort for every guest. This cabin configuration is particularly well-suited to multi-generational parties and corporate groups seeking comfort without sacrifice, and the yacht is notably wheelchair-friendly for guests with accessibility requirements.
The yacht's entertaining spaces are equally impressive. The main deck features a spacious lounge with joyful pastel accents and large windows flooded with natural light, complemented by a formal dining area seating all twelve guests in elegant grandeur. An upper salon with card table and commanding views provides additional gathering space, while two alfresco dining venues—including the upper aft deck—extend the experience outdoors. A dedicated cinema and home entertainment systems throughout ensure sophisticated leisure pursuits at sea, with WiFi connectivity reaching all areas of the vessel.
The sundeck is the social centerpiece, featuring a deluxe jacuzzi, generous sunpads, and a shaded relaxation area. Zero-speed stabilizers ensure comfort while anchored, and an impressive water toy collection—including a seven-meter Zodiac tender, SeaBobs, kayaks, paddleboards, waterskis, and a waterslide—caters to active guests. A professional crew of ten, supported by full WiFi connectivity throughout, attends to all requirements with local expertise.
With a cruising speed of 14 knots and a range of approximately 1,225 nautical miles, BELLA STELLA charter operations span year-round across the East Mediterranean, including Greece and Turkey, as well as seasonal deployments to the Middle East. Her versatile layout, family-friendly design, and recent comprehensive refit make this CRN Ancona yacht an outstanding candidate for charter clients seeking a well-maintained vessel in the 45-meter category, available at EUR 139,000–159,000 per week depending on season and region.

What is included in the charter rate for BELLA STELLA?+
The weekly rate covers the yacht itself, her crew of 10, insurance, and use of the onboard equipment and water toys. Fuel, food and beverages, berthing and port fees, and shore excursions are paid from the APA, and VAT is charged on the base rate. APA (Advance Provisioning Allowance) is typically around 40% of the base rate, held by the captain and accounted for in full — unspent balance is refunded at disembarkation. Greek charter VAT varies by yacht and by charter, broadly between 5.2% and 24%, depending on the yacht's type, size and certification, the duration of the charter, whether it passes through international waters, and whether the yacht carries permanent professional crew. We confirm the applicable rate for BELLA STELLA before you sign. Crew gratuity is separate and discretionary, customarily 10–15% of the base rate.
When is the best time to charter BELLA STELLA?+
BELLA STELLA charters from €139,000 per week in low season and €159,000 in high season — a difference of about 14% between the two. In Greece, July and August are peak: the most settled weather, the busiest anchorages, and the highest rates. Late May, June, and September offer warm water and quieter islands at the low-season rate, and are what we most often recommend. The meltemi wind is strongest in July and August across the Cyclades, which is worth weighing if sea state matters to your party.
