Onboard visit
The standout here is Chef Nikola Statev — serious fine-dining experience across Bulgaria and Germany, with a real passion for fresh, local seafood and a genuine willingness to tailor menus for vegan, keto, or allergy needs. The yacht itself has a crisp, cohesive design, and the crew favors low-key spots in the Saronic Gulf away from the crowds. Smooth, comfortable cruising throughout.

Transcript — Astoria: A Week That Will Change You
>> Especially, you can be with a swimsuit all day, and if you get hot, you just jump. After one trip with us, you will be born. You will be a new person. Luxury resort offers you every day the same and the same, and the length of the trip, you will be boring a little bit from the same things every day. On the luxury boat like our boat, we provide a different program, a different island every day, a different place to swim. It's not boring at all. So it's everyday surprise.
>> Astoria. Our catamaran is all red color because the color we put on the boat, red color, belongs to one very famous Greek song. The name is "Kokkino Karavi," that means "the red ship." So to choose the red color is not by chance. It's a special point here.
>> Even if you are only browsing, please use me as a resource. There's no pressure to book. We can look at yachts. I'm happy to go through the process as far as you like. If you decide to book, fantastic. If you don't, it's no problem at all. But please do use us as a resource. We know these yachts well, and we love to talk about them.
Captain: More of the people, they like turquoise water to swim, quiet bay to sleep good, and of course, the best Mediterranean food we provide here. These three things are most important for most of the people. Most, maybe I will say, Mediterranean kitchen, that's my favorite to cook, and of course, pasta, risotto. This is homemade hummus, tapenade. Those are bites with cucumber, smoked salmon, and caviar. This is octopus with fine cherry tomatoes. In Greece, as you know, there are many islands, and there is a choice for every kind of trip you like. Some people, they like it more noisy, more a place with the nightlife. Of course, for the people like this, who choose the nightlife, we are going to Mykonos, we are going to Santorini. People who choose the more quiet trip, we have another small islands like Schinoussa, Koufonisia, which are small, not so many people. So, we have an opportunity for every kind of client, and we take care for everyone and for every detail. Brokers are very important because the brokers are between us and the clients, and the broker explains us every small detail what the clients needed. We have a time, we sit together with the brokers. We discuss everything, and we make the program, make a separate program for every one of details to the clients, like only the good brokers can do this with us together.
