Charter destination
Athens, Greece
About this yacht
DILIAS is a refined 24-metre motor yacht delivered by the renowned Italian shipyard Posillipo in 2006, representing the builder's commitment to quality craftsmanship and timeless design. Originally constructed with elegance in mind, this vessel underwent a comprehensive refit in 2017 that renewed her systems and finishes while preserving the sophistication that defines her character. The yacht features interior styling by Laura Baldoni de Gorga, creating a warm, welcoming environment with neutral earth tones, soft furnishings, and high-gloss cherry wood panelling throughout.
The main saloon showcases an open-plan layout that seamlessly connects the salon and dining areas, featuring a generous U-shaped sofa and entertainment system that facilitate both relaxation and socialising. The formal dining area seats guests with comfort and refinement, while the aft deck provides an elegant transition to the outdoor spaces—ideal for Mediterranean cruising. Below decks, four en-suite cabins accommodate up to ten guests, comprising a master stateroom, VIP cabin, and two twin cabins each with additional Pullman berths, ensuring flexibility for family groups and friends travelling together.
Powered by twin 1800 HP MTU engines, DILIAS achieves a cruising speed of 24 knots, with a maximum speed of 30 knots, making her equally suited to leisurely exploration or purposeful repositioning across Mediterranean waters. Based year-round in Athens, Greece, she has established herself across the region's most coveted cruising grounds—the Cyclades, Ionian Islands, Aegean archipelago, and Turkish Riviera—as well as the Adriatic. A professional crew of four delivers attentive, personalised service throughout your voyage.
This Posillipo yacht represents the ideal choice for discerning charterers seeking a refined blend of comfort, performance, and Mediterranean authenticity. The DILIAS charter experience combines accessible luxury with proven seaworthiness, offering families and groups the flexibility to explore diverse anchorages whilst enjoying sophisticated onboard living. With her balanced size, efficient fuel consumption, and proven charter record, DILIAS delivers exceptional value for those seeking a crewed Greek island experience.

What is included in the charter rate for DILIAS?+
The weekly rate covers the yacht itself, her crew of 4, 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 DILIAS before you sign. Crew gratuity is separate and discretionary, customarily 10–15% of the base rate.
When is the best time to charter DILIAS?+
DILIAS charters from €29,000 per week in low season and €32,500 in high season — a difference of about 12% 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.
