Koukles Yacht Description
-
Jacuzzi on flybridge for 4 guests:
Relax with cocktails & sea views in the spacious Jacuzzi—perfect for luxury downtime and romance. -
Two high-performance Jet Skis (Seadoo & SeaDoo Trixx):
Rare for motor yachts, these standup jetskis offer thrilling water fun and exploring secluded bays. -
Zero-speed stabilizers at anchor and underway:
Ensures smooth cruising and better sleep, even in trickier seas common around Greek islands.
Step one: pick your control center. On KOUKLES it’s the flybridge: four‑person deck jacuzzi, wet bar, BBQ, big sunpads, shaded or full sun at the push of a button, and a Sonos sound system wired to keep the whole scene online. This is where most “we should do this every year” decisions get made.
Step two: sleep properly. A 98ft Azimut with a full‑beam master suite accessed by its own private staircase is not subtle. Walk‑in wardrobe, his‑and‑hers sinks, bathtub with jacuzzi setting, hydro‑massage shower. Three further guest cabins (VIP, double, twin with Pullman) take you comfortably to 8–9 guests, each with ensuite and full entertainment.
Step three: don’t waste the water. Two jet skis, Seabob, sea scooters, wakeboard, skis, towables, SUPs, tender, bikes for shore, plus free weights and yoga mats for those who insist on “balance”. If it tows, glides or splashes, it’s probably already on the toy list.
Step four: stabilize the chaos. Zero‑speed stabilizers mean the yacht stays level while the party, the kids, or your laptop don’t. She’s a fast planing Azimut (built 2008, repeatedly refitted, most recently 2024 including new teak), cruising around 20 knots without shaking your drink.
Step five: outsource the life admin. A six‑person Greek crew led by a charter‑specialist captain and a seriously accomplished chef turns “where should we go / what should we eat?” into “yes, that works.” Guest feedback consistently fixates on two things: the routes are clever, and the food makes shore restaurants look like a backup plan.
Accommodation
Since her debut onto the charter market in 2021, Koukles has received nothing but outstanding feedback, with particularly high praise for her captain and chef. With Captain Giannis behind the wheel heading up a fantastic crew and Konstantinos in the galley, you are guaranteed the charter of a lifetime.Delivered by Azimut in 2008 with a refit in 2021, Koukles is a high-performing yacht that perfectly balances contemporary design and space with comfort. During her 2021 refit her exterior and interior were upgraded as well as her interior redecorated, including the purchase of new linen, beach towels and dinnerware.
She boasts expansive deck space with multiple areas for relaxation, featuring a large foredeck with optional sunshade and sunpads, the perfect area for privacy when at anchor in busier ports. On the flybridge there is more comfortable seating, along with sun pads, a wetbar, a BBQ, a four person Jacuzzi and lounging chairs. This entire area can also be protected by a sunroof when desired. Throughout the yacht there is also an incredible top of the range Sonos sound system, the perfect addition to any onboard special event. Her fully sheltered aft deck offers an additional space for al fresco dining.
Her interior design is by Carlo Galeazzi, with fixtures and fittings in dark wood contrasting with light and modern upholstery – her main salon is open and bright and features a bar and 50-inch TV. She accommodates up to nine guests in one master suite, one VIP, one double and one twin cabin with a Pullman berth. All cabins feature entertainment centres and ensuite bathrooms. Her full beam master suite is exceptionally spacious and accessed via a private staircase, providing extra privacy and seclusion. It has a walk-in wardrobe, and the ensuite features his and her sinks, a large bathtub with a jacuzzi setting, and a shower with hydro massage.
Koukles also features a great list of water toys including fitness equipment, a jet ski, a Seabob, water scooters, SUPS, inflatables and 4m Yamaha tender and more! She has a top speed of 24 knots, and also features zero speed stabilisers to ensure smooth cruising.
“We could not have been better looked after by the captain and his entire crew. I hadn’t really appreciated before we set off just how much of a difference the crew can make to the success and enjoyment of a cruise. We had great fun and were superbly looked after by every single member of the team – by the end we felt like we were leaving family on board!”
Whether parties wish to charter as a couple or with family and friends, look no further than Koukles.

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 motor yacht like Koukles, the expected APA is 25% to 40% of the charter price (€13,750 - €22,000), making the charter cost €68,750 to €77,000. 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.

Reviews
We stopped at five islands, several smaller islands and some larger with charming ports, such as Naoussa on Paros. We enjoyed the natural moorings especially at Iraklia for private coves with crystal clear waters to swim and use the various water toys (our favorite was the SeaBob!)
The best part was Koukles’ amazing crew. They anticipated our every need, keeping our cabins spotless, navigating to calm waters to ensure our comfort, suggesting itineraries and excursions with guides while in port, and coordinating our travel arrangements before and after leaving Koukles.
And we were fed like kings. Fresh seafood such as a lobster pasta and large prawns, glorious Greek salads, local favorite dishes expertly prepared and seasoned with fresh herbs. Our chef Constantine gets stars from all of us!
The steward Vasiliki catered superbly to our every need, from cocktails to laundry to protecting us from the wind and serving us elegantly at mealtimes.
The crew also planned and surprised us with a 40th anniversary party complete with cake and sparklers and balloons and champagne. It was a warm and thoughtful approach, as with everything else.
Captain Manos is clearly an experienced navigator, of the seas and of his guests. We were made to feel so comfortable and enchanted by this trip that we hated to leave him, the crew and Koukles. We highly recommend Koukles for a wonderful vacation in the Greek islands.
