Charter Privilege in Mykonos: Models, Prices and Routes (2026)

·7 min
Chartering a Privilege catamaran in Mykonos for the 2026 season offers an unparalleled blend of French maritime engineering and the vibrant lifestyle of the Cyclades. These vessels are specifically designed for groups of 4 to 12 guests who prioritize space, stability, and a premium "floating villa" experience while exploring the Aegean Sea.

Most Requested Privilege Models for Mykonos Charters

Privilege Marine has long been the gold standard for luxury cruising catamarans, characterized by their signature central "pod" design which provides a larger owner’s suite and a more robust silhouette compared to standard production cats. For the 2026 season in Mykonos, three specific size ranges are most frequently requested by our clients.

  • Privilege Series 5 (50-51ft): The quintessential choice for families. Typically configured with 4 double cabins and 4 heads, it accommodates 8 guests comfortably. It is agile enough to tuck into the smaller coves of Rhenia.
  • Privilege Series 6 (60-64ft): A significant step up in luxury, often featuring a flybridge for 360-degree views of the Mykonos coastline. These models usually host 6 to 10 guests and include a dedicated crew of 2 or 3.
  • Privilege Series 7 / Signature 740: The flagship of the fleet. At 74 feet, this is a true super-yacht catamaran. With expansive deck spaces and high-end interior finishes, it is the premier choice for groups of 10-12 seeking total privacy and 5-star service.

2026 Pricing Guide: Daily and Weekly Rates

Privilege charter prices in Mykonos are influenced by the age of the vessel, the specific model, and the time of year. Prices for 2026 are categorized into Low Season (May/October), Mid Season (June/September), and High Season (July/August). Note that weekly charters usually offer a better price-per-day ratio than single-day rentals.

Model Range Low Season (Weekly) High Season (Weekly) Daily Rate (Est.)
Privilege Series 5 €12,000 - €15,000 €18,000 - €22,000 €2,500 - €3,500

Privilege Series 7 €45,000 - €55,000 €65,000+ €9,000+

Note: Prices are estimates for 2026 and vary based on the specific yacht's equipment and crew profile.

Best 1-Day Routes from Tourlos Marina

Most Privilege charters depart from the New Port of Mykonos (Tourlos Marina). Because these catamarans offer exceptional stability, they are perfect for navigating the Meltemi winds that often sweep across the Cyclades in mid-summer.

A popular 8-hour itinerary starts with a morning cruise toward the uninhabited island of Rhenia. Here, the turquoise waters of the "Blue Lagoon" provide a protected anchorage for swimming and paddleboarding. After a chef-prepared lunch on the aft deck, the route continues to the sacred island of Delos for a glimpse of the ancient ruins from the water. The afternoon is spent cruising the southern beaches of Mykonos, passing Psarou, Platis Gialos, and Super Paradise, before catching the sunset near the iconic windmills of Little Venice.

Extended Itineraries: 3 to 7 Days

For those booking a weekly charter, a Privilege catamaran serves as a mobile base to explore the "Little Cyclades" or the neighboring islands. A 2026 multi-day route often includes:

  1. Day 1-2: Mykonos & Rhenia. Acclimatize to the yacht and enjoy the beach club scene at Nammos or Scorpios.
  2. Day 3: Paros & Antiparos. Sail south to Naoussa, a charming fishing village, then anchor in the crystal-clear straits of Antiparos for a private beach BBQ.
  3. Day 4-5: Naxos & Koufonisia. Discover the rugged beauty of Naxos before heading to the exotic, turquoise waters of Pano Koufonisi—one of the most photogenic spots in Greece.
  4. Day 6: Syros. Visit the elegant capital of the Cyclades, Ermoupoli, known for its neoclassical architecture and marble-paved squares.
  5. Day 7: Return to Mykonos. A final stop at the southern Mykonos coves of Kalo Livadi or Elia Beach before disembarking.

Inclusions and Logistics: What to Expect

When booking a Privilege through Charter & Villas, it is essential to understand the "All-In" vs. "Plus Expenses" structures. Most crewed Privilege charters in Mykonos operate under WMT (Western Mediterranean Terms).

  • Included: The yacht rental, the crew (Skipper and Hostess/Chef), and basic insurance.
  • VAT: In Greece, VAT for charters typically ranges from 12% to 24%, depending on the route and current regulations for 2026.
  • APA (Advance Provisioning Allowance): Usually 25-35% of the charter fee. This covers fuel, food, beverages, and marina fees. Any unused portion is refunded at the end of the trip.
  • Berthing: In Mykonos, berthing is primarily at Tourlos. During peak July and August, securing a berth requires advanced notice due to high demand.

Season and Weather Considerations

The Mykonos charter season begins in late April and runs through October. For the best balance of weather and crowd density in 2026, we recommend the "shoulder" months of June and September. During these periods, the water temperature is ideal for swimming, and the Meltemi winds (strong northerly winds) are less frequent than in July and August. If you choose to sail in the peak of summer, the heavy displacement of a Privilege catamaran ensures a much smoother ride through the waves than lighter, smaller vessels.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many guests can stay overnight on a Privilege catamaran?

Most Privilege models available in Mykonos are licensed for 8 to 12 guests for day trips, but overnight capacity is limited by the number of cabins, typically ranging from 6 to 10 guests plus crew.

Is a skipper required for a Privilege charter?

Due to the value and complexity of these yachts, almost all Privilege catamarans in the Mykonos fleet are offered as "crewed" or "skippered" only. This ensures your safety and allows you to enjoy the destination without maritime responsibilities.

Can we visit Santorini on a day trip from Mykonos?

While possible on a high-speed motor yacht, a sailing catamaran like a Privilege is better suited for a multi-day trip to Santorini. The distance is approximately 64 nautical miles, which is more enjoyable as part of a 2 or 3-day itinerary.

Are water toys included on the boat?

Yes, most Privilege yachts in our 2026 fleet come equipped with stand-up paddleboards (SUPs), snorkeling gear, and often a powerful tender for shore transfers. Larger models may also include sea bobs or electric foils.
