About this yacht
Quinta Essentia represents a refined expression of modern superyacht design and engineering from Admiral Yachts. Launched in 2016 and recently refitted in 2025, this 55-metre motor yacht combines Italian shipyard craftsmanship with distinctive design sensibilities. The vessel was designed by Dobroserdov Design with naval architecture collaboration from Vripack, while Michela Reverberi created the sophisticated interior aesthetic—a palette of whites, creams, and carefully curated furnishings that define the yacht's elegant ambience.
Built on an aluminium hull, Quinta Essentia accommodates 12 guests across six spacious cabins, each thoughtfully appointed. The main deck features an owner's suite with a private balcony ideal for morning yoga or intimate dinners, while the upper deck VIP cabin commands 360-degree panoramic views from its dedicated private deck. Four double staterooms on the lower deck provide flexible accommodation, with convertible configurations available to suit varied guest compositions. A professional crew of 13 ensures attentive service throughout.
The exterior spaces define this yacht's charter appeal. A striking swimming pool with waterfall cascades across the main deck, where guests dine alfresco and enjoy Mediterranean sunshine. The sun deck houses an expansive Jacuzzi, whilst an enormous beach club provides direct water access and entertainment flexibility. The full-beam spa centre includes hammam, sauna, steam room, massage room, and beauty facilities—luxury wellness amenities rarely encountered at this size. A well-appointed gymnasium and comprehensive toy collection complete the offering.
With a cruising speed of 12 knots and maximum speed of 16.5 knots, Quinta Essentia achieves an impressive 3,500-nautical-mile range. This capability opens diverse itineraries: Mediterranean classics during summer months, while winter seasons embrace distant horizons including the Red Sea, Maldives, Seychelles, and Madagascar. Her matching limousine tender and exceptional exterior design language make elegant arrivals a signature experience.
The 2025 refit ensures modern systems and refined finishes meet contemporary expectations for ultra-luxury charter. Quinta Essentia charter represents sophisticated leisure across varied global destinations, offering the refined ambience and technical capability discerning charterers demand.

What is included in the charter rate for Quinta Essentia?+
The weekly rate covers the yacht itself, her crew of 13, 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 Quinta Essentia before you sign. Crew gratuity is separate and discretionary, customarily 10–15% of the base rate.
When is the best time to charter Quinta Essentia?+
Quinta Essentia charters from €320,000 per week in low season and €360,000 in high season — a difference of about 13% 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.
