Sixty two family yachts charter in the fifty metre band, the largest selection at any length. This is the size where superyacht space meets manageable logistics, and where families find enough cabins for three generations, enough crew to make it effortless, and enough deck area to keep children, teenagers and adults occupied at the same time.
Layouts vary widely. Some carry five cabins for ten guests and use the freed volume for entertainment, with cinemas, beach clubs and oversized sun decks. Others take six or seven cabins to sleep twelve, adding a nanny cabin or a children’s room adjacent to the master suite. Crews of nine to fourteen are standard, and every yacht in this group offers a dedicated stewardess team experienced in family service.
Weekly rates open at sixty five thousand euros and run to three hundred and twenty two thousand for the newest and most heavily specified hulls. The median sits around two hundred thousand euros, and more than half the fleet charters between one hundred and fifty and two hundred and fifty thousand a week. Add an advance provisioning allowance of roughly thirty percent for fuel, food, berthing and drinks.
The Mediterranean is the natural setting for a family charter at this length. Sardinia, the Balearics and the Greek islands offer short hops between sheltered anchorages, and the draft of a fifty metre yacht reaches most coves. The Caribbean opens from December, with the Bahamas, the Grenadines and the British Virgin Islands the leading family circuits. Tell us your dates and we will narrow the field.
