Group Charter

Up to twenty, with the crew to match.

Beyond about twelve guests, the constraint stops being cabins and becomes crew. A superyacht carries eight to fifteen — enough that service never queues and the party can keep different hours.

  • April–November Best season
  • Parties of 8–20 Suits
  • Six nights or more Time to allow
  • Included In the charter rate

The short answer

What group charter actually involves

Space to be together and space to be alone, on the same vessel. Suits parties of 8–20; multi-generational and celebration groups. Season: April–November; book six months ahead at this size. Equipment: full-beam suites, tenders, water toys, multiple decks.

What makes it work

Three things that decide it

01

Crew is the real limit

Twelve guests need a different crew count than twenty, not just another cabin. That is what moves the quote.

02

Decks, not just rooms

Multiple levels let one half of the party be loud while the other reads. On a single-deck hull that does not work.

03

Two vessels, sometimes

Above twenty, a second hull sailing in company is often cheaper and better than the one boat big enough.

Inside the rate

What the day rate already covers

  • Fully crewed private charter
  • All meals and beverages
  • Specialist guide where the activity needs one
  • Equipment listed above
  • Komodo National Park permits
  • Timing planned around tide, light and the day boats

A private charter sets its own hours. Day boats run to a fixed schedule; you do not — which is usually the difference between doing this well and doing it in a queue. Specific inclusions depend on the yacht selected, our charter desk will confirm the full list for your chosen vessel.

Before you commit

Four questions the desk gets weekly

What is the maximum party size?

Twenty on a superyacht with eight to fifteen crew. Larger groups run two vessels in company, which is quoted at preferential rates.

How far ahead should we book?

Six months for peak season. There are few hulls this size in Indonesian waters.

Can we split across two boats?

Yes, and it is often the better answer — more deck per guest and usually less money than the single largest hull.

Is pricing per person?

Never. Charter is for the whole vessel; how you divide it among the party is your arithmetic, not ours.

Build it into the charter

Tell the desk this is the priority and how many days you have. The route is planned around it, and the written quote comes back the same day.
