About this yacht
BELLINI is a 29.7-metre classic motor yacht built by the renowned Cantieri di Pisa shipyard in 1988, representing an era of refined Italian yacht design. What distinguishes her today is a comprehensive 2024 refurbishment that has meticulously updated both interior and exterior while preserving her timeless character. The refit embraces a sophisticated Art Deco aesthetic, blending vintage elegance with contemporary comfort—a philosophy evident throughout her thoughtfully appointed spaces.
Accommodating twelve guests across five cabins, BELLINI offers flexible sleeping arrangements that cater to various group compositions. The master suite features a full-beam layout providing superior comfort, while additional double cabins, a twin cabin, and a convertible cabin ensure privacy and adaptability for different party sizes. Her interior design employs clean lines, soft materials, and abundant natural light to create an inviting atmosphere that flows seamlessly between the main salon and guest areas. The careful spatial planning encourages an unhurried rhythm of movement through shared spaces and private quarters alike, with large windows amplifying the sense of openness. A professional crew of five delivers attentive, discreet service throughout your voyage.
On deck, BELLINI excels as a platform for leisure and social engagement. The main deck cockpit is dedicated to al fresco dining, complete with a sofa facing the stern, a dining table, and moveable furnishings that adapt to your preferences. The expansive sundeck showcases comfortable sofa seating, adjustable sun pads positioned centrally, and an aft jacuzzi—amenities that define relaxed Mediterranean cruising. The flexible deck layout allows sun pads to be repositioned, creating space for additional dining or entertainment as needed. Large windows and open-air spaces throughout encourage natural indoor-outdoor living.
Powered by twin MTU engines producing 1920 kW each, BELLINI cruises at 23 knots with a maximum speed exceeding 31 knots, making her nimble enough to visit remote anchorages while delivering impressive performance. Her water sports inventory includes a 4.6-metre Novurania tender, jet ski, Seabob, e-foil, wakeboard, SUP, and water skis—comprehensive options for active guests seeking engagement with the sea. WiFi and full air conditioning throughout provide modern conveniences essential to contemporary yacht charter.
Based in Athens, Greece, BELLINI operates throughout the East Mediterranean, with particular suitability for exploring the Cyclades, Aegean Islands, Ionian Islands, and Rhodes.

What is included in the charter rate for BELLINI?+
The weekly rate covers the yacht itself, her crew of 5, 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 BELLINI before you sign. Crew gratuity is separate and discretionary, customarily 10–15% of the base rate.
When is the best time to charter BELLINI?+
BELLINI charters from €35,000 per week in low season and €38,000 in high season — a difference of about 9% 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.
