Booking a yacht charter is a super exciting venture, whether you’re planning a relaxing getaway or an adventurous sea voyage. Here’s an easy-to-read guide to help you navigate the process smoothly, ensuring you find the best yacht for your needs:

Here is What You Should Know:

The Inquiry:

  • Start Early

Initiate your booking by contacting a brokerage firm early. The ideal time frame is 6 to 9 months in advance, allowing you access to a broader selection of yachts.

  • Tell Us What You Want

Communicate specific details about the size of your group, your preferred type of yacht, your budget, and your desired itinerary. Being specific in the information you give us helps our brokers tailor their search to your exact needs.

Choosing the Right Yach:

  • Yacht Types

Understanding the different yacht types and their advantages will help you choose the right yacht for your specific itinerary. Yacht type, size, and speed are all factors that determine suitability for your location. Read our article on How to Choose the Right Yacht for the Cyclades. 

  • Exclusive Options

Some yachts aren’t listed publicly; these private listings are often available through experienced brokers.

Responding with feedback on initial suggestions helps the broker refine their search to find the perfect yacht for your trip.

  • Book Early

The demand for luxury yachts has spiked, with increased bookings post-pandemic. Early booking not only secures your preferred choice but also gives brokers ample time to match your requirements.

Once you find a yacht that fits your needs, place a hold on it to prevent other bookings for a week, giving you time to finalize without pressure.

Why Choose DMA Yachting:

  • Personalized Service

Unlike generic booking platforms, DMA Yachting offers a personalized approach. You can choose a broker you resonate with or let the owner match you with the best expert for your needs.

  • Transparency and Trust

With visible broker profiles and customer reviews on platforms like Trustpilot, DMA ensures a transparent and reliable booking experience.

  • Booking Tips

Always secure your yacht before booking flights.

Consider the length of the charter and the specific needs of your group to ensure the best fit.

Who are We?

At DMA Yachting, we are proud to have a team of individuals who have real on-water experience. Many of our brokers have worked or lived on yachts themselves. This firsthand experience allows us to truly understand life at sea in both the shoes of crew and guests and the details that make a yacht charter exceptional. We closely inspect yachts and meet in person with captains and crew to ensure every element of the charter meets our high standards. Our yearly participation in yacht shows like the EMMYS, and MEDYS helps us stay on top of industry trends and client needs. We are here to guide you through every step of your charter, from the moment you reach out to the moment your yacht charter ends.

Daniel and Martina were outstanding and helped us execute the trip of a lifetime ! Very responsive and available to assist with anything and everything. They made sure that every detail was addressed and that our family was treated well. We have worked with other Charter Brokers in the past and DMA Yachting service and knowledge was far superior. Highly recommend.

He helped us select the right boat, walked us through all the options available to us and helped ensure that we had an incredibly memorable experience.
