The headline fact: LOVE BOAT is a 36m, 2013‑built gulet engineered to do one thing most yachts can’t: move up to 36 guests in real comfort, with everyone in a proper bed, in 16 large cabins. This is the point where most other “big group” options tap out.
Designed for big groups without the chaos. The layout is built for actual humans, not floor plans: 6 double cabins on the upper deck plus a mix of twin and triple cabins below, so you can configure families, friends, corporate trips or retreats without playing bunk‑bed Tetris. Every cabin has its own bathroom and SAT TV, and the whole yacht runs full air‑conditioning and Wi‑Fi, so you’re not negotiating who gets the “good” cabin.
Outside is where LOVE BOAT cheats the system. Huge open deck areas mean you can run group dinners under the stars, split into quiet corners for reading or work, or stage a full‑scale sunbathing operation without stacking people like sunbeds. There’s a proper swim platform, easy ladder access, and a fast Joker tender to shuttle people and gear without waiting in line.
Water fun, not water theatre. The toy set is targeted at real‑world use: adult water‑skis, kayak, paddleboard, Ringo/banana rides, snorkelling kit and fishing gear – enough to keep a big party rotating through the water without a queue for a single jet ski. Rendezvous diving is available if some of the group want to go deeper.
Why charter LOVE BOAT: because you need a single, sane solution for a very large group and don’t want to compromise on space, privacy or comfort. Recent build, serious deck volume, 16 en‑suite cabins, strong A/C and connectivity, and a seasoned crew used to running complex charters – it’s a straightforward platform for big weddings, multi‑family holidays or corporate trips where the brief is “everyone on one yacht, and make it work.”
Accommodation
The boat has 6 doubles, 2 twins and 8 triple cabins. The twin cabins can be converted into double. Up to 36 guests. The cabins are very large and confortable. The 6 doubles are on upper deck.What is the cabin arrangement of LOVE BOAT?

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 sailboat like LOVE BOAT, the expected APA is 15% to 30% of the charter price (€4,275 - €8,550), making the charter cost €32,775 to €37,050. 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.
