Lurssen, the Bremen yard founded in 1875, builds the largest and most complex superyachts in the world, with vessels measuring 80 metres and above delivered to owners for whom scale and technical innovation are the primary considerations. Four Lurssen yachts are available for charter in Cuba through The Yacht Collection, each a significant commission representing the pinnacle of what custom superyacht construction can achieve.
In Cuban waters, the size of the Lurssen fleet creates an immersive charter experience that smaller vessels cannot replicate. The largest vessels in this fleet carry crew complements of 30 or more, who manage the yacht’s operations, service and activities with a level of coordination that resembles a boutique hotel rather than a conventional charter. Guests move through spaces designed by the world’s foremost interior designers, with facilities that can include beach clubs, spas, cinemas and helicopter pads.
Charter rates for Lurssen yachts in Cuba begin at approximately 200,000 euros per week for the smallest examples and can reach 800,000 euros or more for the largest and most celebrated vessels. The advance provisioning allowance of around 30 percent covers fuel, provisioning, marina fees and crew costs. Cuba’s peak season is December through April. Early enquiry is essential, as the Lurssen fleet is in consistent global demand.
A Lurssen charter in Cuba allows the kind of ambition that smaller vessels cannot support. From Havana’s historic harbour, the fleet ranges south to the Jardines de la Reina before continuing east toward Cabo Maisi, with the option to cross to Jamaica or the Cayman Islands for guests who want to extend their voyage beyond Cuban waters.
