Benetti is Italy’s oldest and largest superyacht builder, producing motor yachts from Viareggio since 1873. The yard offers custom and semi-custom yachts from 37 to over 100 metres, and its charter fleet in the South of France is the deepest and most varied in the Mediterranean. Benetti yachts are defined by their Italian exterior styling, generous interior layouts, and the breadth of size and specification available.
Monaco is the natural home port for a Benetti charter, combining the prestige of the principality with deep marina berths, exceptional provisioning, and the full range of maritime services. Benetti yachts from compact 40-metre motor yachts to 70-metre-plus flagship superyachts are represented in the Monaco and South of France charter fleet, each with experienced crews familiar with the principality’s rhythms and the surrounding Riviera anchorages.
Weekly charter rates for Benetti yachts span from approximately 80,000 euros for smaller vessels to 700,000 euros per week for the largest commissions. The advance provisioning allowance runs at around 30 percent of the base fee, covering fuel, provisions, harbour dues including Port Hercule berth fees, and crew gratuity. The Monaco Grand Prix in late May and peak season in July and August drive the earliest demand.
From Monaco, a Benetti itinerary can head west to Cap Ferrat, Juan-les-Pins, Antibes, and the Lérins Islands within a single day, or east to Menton, Ventimiglia, and San Remo over a morning passage. Saint-Tropez, Corsica, and the Italian coast from Portofino to Amalfi extend the range for charter groups with more time.
