Benetti is one of the oldest and most respected names in Italian yacht building, with a heritage stretching back to 1873. Eight Benetti yachts currently charter in Greek waters, bringing the yard’s signature combination of elegant exterior lines, refined Italian interiors and dependable engineering to one of the world’s finest cruising grounds. For charterers who value build pedigree alongside the destination, a Benetti in Greece is a compelling proposition.
The Benetti fleet in Greece spans lengths from approximately 36 to 60 metres, with recent builds and refits from the yard’s Viareggio facilities sitting alongside older models that have been updated to contemporary standards. What unites them is the Benetti design language: flowing hull profiles, interiors by leading Italian studios, and engineering that prioritises quiet, stable cruising. Crews on these yachts tend to be highly experienced and loyal to the vessel.
Weekly charter rates for Benetti yachts in Greece range from around 95,000 to 350,000 euros, with a median of approximately 180,000 euros. The advance provisioning allowance of roughly 30% covers fuel, provisions, berthing and drinks. The spread reflects differences in length, build year and refit status, but even at the lower end of the range, the Benetti name guarantees a certain standard of construction and finish.
Greece rewards these yachts well. The short passages between Cycladic islands suit the Benetti hull’s efficient displacement cruising, and the major ports from Mykonos to Hydra provide the kind of stern-to berths where a Benetti’s lines are shown to best advantage.
