Benetti is one of the oldest and most prolific luxury yacht builders in the world, tracing its history to 1873 in Viareggio, Italy. Sixteen Benetti yachts are available for charter across the Greater Antilles, making this the single largest builder selection in the region and giving charter guests a range of vessels from the 30 metre Delfino class through to 90 metre custom superyachts. No other yard offers this breadth of choice in a single Caribbean destination cluster.nnBenetti’s output divides between the Giga series of custom vessels above 70 metres, the Oasis and Fast series of 35 to 50 metre semi-production yachts, and fully custom commissions that span every size. In the Greater Antilles, the fleet covers almost every price point and style preference, from the contemporary Italian minimalism of the Oasis series to the classical grandeur of an 80 metre Giga commission. Interior partnerships with firms including Cassina and leading independent design studios give Benetti interiors a consistently high level of finish.nnWeekly rates for Benetti charters in the Greater Antilles range from approximately 40,000 euros for a smaller production vessel to 650,000 euros and above for the 80 to 90 metre custom fleet. The advance provisioning allowance adds around 30 percent. The December to April season sees Benetti’s Caribbean fleet at near-full capacity, making early booking essential.nnPuerto Rico, the Dominican Republic, Jamaica and the Spanish Virgin Islands all feature regularly on Benetti itineraries. Culebra and Vieques from Puerto Rico, Samaná Bay from Hispaniola, and Port Antonio from Jamaica are the headline anchorages.
