We have handpicked these 5 fantastic crewed motor yachts in Greece for under €55,000 per week. They are selected for their incredible value for money and their excellent client feedback.
Broker insight
Real crewed motor yachting in Greece usually starts north of 55,000 euros a week, which is exactly why this list exists: these five are the exceptions that deliver the full experience below that line. Proven hulls from 35,500 to 50,000 euros, crews we know personally, refits we have checked ourselves. The trade is simple: you get a well-kept older boat instead of a new build, and the crew makes the week. If you want to step into crewed motor yachting without the full-luxury budget, these five are the ones we would put our own name on.

5. TAKA
Motor Yacht TAKA is one of the most interesting yachts we’ve seen at the Poros yacht show.
Totally unique: Built in 1976, she has a classic 70s style, wood, tiles, retro color scheme, funky art, and a crew of 5 that’s been together forever.
Captain Zafiris Mammis has been onboard 25 years, and it shows.
Big plus: fully set up for mobility needs. Chairlift, proper tender, and real hands-on experience helping disabled guests. That makes a huge difference. Great for an older couple or anyone into vintage style and serious service.
4. MYTHOS G
Fresh from a full 2021 refit, MYTHOS G is a fast and stylish 26 m motor yacht that’s ideal for island-hopping around Greece.
New owner, new crew, and everything onboard, from fabrics to entertainment systems, has been updated. She’s light, comfortable, and eco-conscious, with a no-plastic approach and products from a Greek organic brand.
The flybridge is great for shaded lunches, and there’s a full water toy lineup including 2 jet skis, Seabobs, and more.
With room for 8+2 guests, a separate master suite, and a friendly crew who throw a Greek night with BBQ and souvlaki, she’s one of our go-to mid-range picks for a fun, relaxed yacht charter in Greece.

3. KARMA
We were onboard KARMA again at the MEDYS Yacht Show in Nafplion.
The value for money is unbelievable; she charters for 40k/week with 7 crew. This is very rare!
Chef Marios Glykas is a multi-award-winning megayacht chef who has won 3 x Poros Yacht Show Chef Competitions, 2 x MYBA Yacht Show Chef Competitions + yesterday he won Best Plate Decoration Competition.
KARMA is an older yacht but is in excellent condition. An advantage of her age is the size of her cabins: the VIP is equivalent to the Master Cabin.
The interior is tasteful and classic, and the crew truly succeeds in creating a homely atmosphere.
KARMA is a perfect yacht and crew for the Cyclades and Saronic Islands – a true Greek odyssey.
2. SUMMER FUN
Onboard SUMMER FUN in Nafplion.
A very popular option for 12 guests in Greece. Why? Because she ticks a lot of boxes, she has 6 cabins (rare for this size) and 7 crew, making her a great value and unique package for a common demand. This also means that she must be reserved early!
One of the double cabins is located on the main deck. It is referred to as ‘the playroom’ and comes with a PlayStation, big screen, and separate toilet and shower room.
Her charter style is reflected in her name: “Summer Fun” – she’s got a great selection of water toys, including jet ski.
We recommend SUMMER FUN for a busy itinerary with a focus on packing a lot of action and moving swiftly between locations. The yacht is based in Athens. Please inquire to arrange a delivery or pickup in a different location
1. PROJECT STEEL
We have booked PROJECT STEEL many times before, and we will do it again! She is a great yacht-captain-chef package!!
One of the main advantages of this motor yacht is its low fuel consumption. 130 liters per hour compared to 400-600 l/hour yachts, especially great for longer distances, for example, a Cycladic itinerary including Mykonos or Santorini.
Captain Evangelos used to be the captain of the Sunreef catamaran ABOVE & BEYOND. He is very experienced and has amazing knowledge of all of Greece, including great itineraries and where to find the best fresh fish directly from fishermen. He loves showing his guests “the secret Greece”. His favorite spots are Spetses, Nusa, Sifnos, Milos, Monemvasia, and the Peloponnese mainland.
Chef Konstantinos Katsaros comes from mega yachts – he was also the private chef of the King of Kuwait! – huge sell!
Two twin cabins with extra Pullman beds. The interior is black and white and minimalistic, no fluff.
No waste food – check out the menu based on one fish – head to tail. Glass bottles only, strict recycling! Great to see a yacht that truly cares about it – Captain used to be on Rainbow Warrior for Greenpeace.
