Charter yachts in Antigua and Barbuda from 500,000 euros per week sit at the very highest level of the Caribbean charter market, covering vessels of 95 to 115 metres with crews of thirty or more from the most established superyacht harbours in the eastern Caribbean at English Harbour and Falmouth. Six yachts at this level are available.
At 500,000 euros per week, the programme is designed from the first conversation with the owner or captain. The vessel carries an owner’s deck with a private saloon, sun deck and owners suite separated from the guest accommodation, allowing complete autonomy for two groups aboard. The beach club at this scale operates as an independent hospitality venue with its own bar team, a DJ system, loungers for twenty-four and a water sport deck with a dedicated chase tender and a twelve metre limousine tender permanently assigned to guest transfers.
The 500,000 euro weekly rate covers crew, insurance and standard equipment under MYBA terms. An advance provisioning allowance of 30 to 35 percent, between 150,000 and 175,000 euros, covers fuel for the Antigua programme, premium provisioning including private wine selection, helicopter transfers from Antigua to Barbuda if preferred over the four-hour passage, and all port and marina dues. Total expenditure for a fully active programme routinely reaches 650,000 euros per week.
At this level, Antigua is typically the gateway rather than the primary destination, with the superyacht deploying to Barbuda for four nights, across to Montserrat for a volcanic landscape approach by tender, and south to Guadeloupe for the final nights of the programme before returning to English Harbour for disembarkation.
