BABALU 51 Yacht Description

  • RIB Tender 13ft with 40hp outboard:
    Fast, reliable RIB tender to explore islands and enjoy water adventures with up to 8 guests.
  • Wide range of water toys for all ages:
    Includes wakeboard, adult & kids water skis, 2 SUPs, snorkel gear, and inflatable sofa for 2.
  • Full air conditioning and watermaker:
    Keeps guests comfortable and self-sufficient, perfect for luxurious, relaxed stays around Greece.

This is a 2024 Lagoon 51 catamaran wired for one thing: using the massive deck space properly. Wide, stable platform, big social areas, zero “where do we all sit” problem. Four double cabins sleep up to 8 guests, all with en-suite facilities, so nobody is testing their patience in a queue with a towel on.

The real hook is the crew-and-food combo. You get an Ocean-certified skipper who’s also a PADI Divemaster and lifelong watersports guy, plus a professionally trained cook/pastry chef running a menu that reads more like a boutique restaurant playbook than “boat food”: Greek classics, seafood, serious breakfasts, and desserts from baklava to tiramisu. This is the yacht for people who care as much about the plate and the plan as the view.

Hardware is built for play, not just transit. A 13ft RIB with 40hp outboard, wakeboard, adult and kids water skis, towable sofa, SUPs, snorkeling and fishing gear turn every anchorage into a low-friction watersports station. Full air-conditioning, generator, watermaker and onboard Wi‑Fi keep the comfort level realistically high, not “camping with sails.”

Net result: new-build Lagoon stability and volume, hotel-style cabins, a three-person pro crew, and a serious gastro-forward galley. If your idea of a successful charter is “everyone is busy, fed too well, and nobody is fighting over a bathroom,” this one is engineered for you.

Price Terms

Plus Expenses - add APA to the price you see

Plus Expenses arrangement includes the boat and crew only (without tip).

All additional/variable expenses such as Gas and Food are deducted from an Advance Provisioning Allowance (APA) - an additional deposit that is added on top of the charter price.

The expenses, such as provisioning, fuel, marina fees, are deducted from the APA. The APA is based on the price of the yacht and ranges from 15% (crewed sailing yachts) to 30% (motor yachts with higher fuel consumption).

For a sailing catamaran like BABALU 51, the expected APA is 20% to 35% of the charter price (€3,400 - €5,950), making the charter cost €20,400 to €22,950. Exact amount will be confirmed after inquiry.

You can actively control these expenses in your preference sheet (local vs. imported beverages) and by choice of itinerary (distances traveled).

The remainder of the APA is returned after charter.

Thank you for everything! I couldn’t imagine spending this week in any other way with anyone else. Each day was filled with great views, tasty food, and lots of fun! If I ever come back (which I hope to do), I wish for it to be with these same 3. I will need to have a rematch with stewardess as she is surprisingly good at cards!

Thank you guys so much for an amazing week! Without y’all this week would have been nowhere near as much fun. Every new island was an awesome adventure, the food was always amazing, and everything else I needed was provided, from a new drink to a clean room. You guys are awesome and I hope the next groups are as fun as us for you.

Thank you to all crew,
we had the best and most relaxing week on the Babalu. We loved seeing beautiful, secluded beaches across the Cyclades. It was a week of smooth sailing. We ate like Queens and Kings and loved all of Cooks creative Greek meals – our favorite was brownies and pastitsio! Hostess always took great care of us with coffee, drinks and pillows We appreciated you checking in on us so frequently and watching out for us on the paddleboards. This was a magical week for our family, and we are so grateful for the experience! Hope to return next year!
