About this yacht
LIVA is a distinguished 39-meter Maiora motor yacht built in 2006 and recently enhanced by a comprehensive 2022 refit that revitalized her systems and accommodations. Previously known as Phalarope, this elegant vessel represents the quality engineering and timeless design philosophy that has made Maiora a respected name in superyacht construction for decades.
Accommodating up to 12 guests across six well-appointed cabins, LIVA offers flexibility for various charter configurations. The layout includes a master suite on the lower deck, three additional double cabins, two twin cabins, and Pullman berths, ensuring comfort for groups of varying sizes. Each cabin features ensuite facilities, and the generous accommodation plan reflects the thoughtful design that characterizes this yacht.
The vessel's sophisticated interior centers around a main deck salon with dining table, providing an elegant gathering space for guests. Above deck, the sundeck offers alfresco dining and entertainment with panoramic views—an essential feature for Mediterranean cruising. A hot tub on the sun deck adds another dimension to the onboard leisure experience, perfect for evening relaxation after days of exploration.
Powered by twin MTU 16V 4000 M90 engines, LIVA achieves a cruising speed of 22 knots with a maximum speed of 29 knots, offering both capability and efficiency for Greek waters and beyond. Her three generators ensure reliable power and climate control throughout the vessel. The yacht maintains excellent fuel economy at cruise speeds, consuming approximately 850 liters per hour—practical considerations for extended voyages through the Aegean and Ionian islands.
LIVA's professional crew of nine manages all nautical operations and guest services, allowing charter parties to focus entirely on the experience. The vessel is ideally positioned in Athens for comprehensive Greek island charters, with easy access to the Cyclades, Sporades, and Dodecanese archipelagos. Whether guests seek active exploration of secluded anchorages or leisurely cruising between charming ports, LIVA's capabilities and refined atmosphere provide the ideal platform.
Available for LIVA charter at €85,000–€95,000 weekly, this Maiora yacht delivers sophisticated Mediterranean cruising with professional service and modern comfort for discerning clientele.

What is included in the charter rate for LIVA?+
The weekly rate covers the yacht itself, her crew of 9, 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 LIVA before you sign. Crew gratuity is separate and discretionary, customarily 10–15% of the base rate.
When is the best time to charter LIVA?+
LIVA charters from €85,000 per week in low season and €95,000 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.
