A closer look
The Aft Deck Lounge
Beneath a substantial awning, the aft deck unfolds as the primary social hub. Here, a polished wooden table, large enough to gather all eighteen guests, invites leisurely breakfasts and moonlit dinners. The gentle hum of the sea provides a constant soundtrack, while plush cushions encourage hours of conversation or quiet contemplation, shaded from the Mediterranean sun. It’s a space designed for connection, where every meal becomes an occasion, framed by ever-changing coastal panoramas.
Sun-Kissed Foredeck
The foredeck is a vast expanse dedicated to sun worship and open-air relaxation. Sprawling sun pads, upholstered in crisp marine fabrics, beckon for long afternoons spent soaking in the warmth, perhaps with a good book or simply the distant horizon for company. The gentle sway of the yacht and the whisper of the breeze create a tranquil atmosphere, perfect for unwinding as the East Mediterranean scenery drifts by. An ideal spot for morning yoga or an evening sundowner.
Saloon's Cool Comfort
Stepping inside, the air-conditioned saloon offers a cool respite from the midday heat. Rich timber panelling and soft, neutral furnishings create an inviting and comfortable atmosphere. Large windows frame the passing seascape, ensuring a connection with the outside world even when seeking shelter. This versatile space serves as a comfortable lounge for evening entertainment, a quiet corner for reflection, or an alternative dining area should the weather turn.
Bridge Deck Views
Ascend to the bridge deck, an elevated vantage point offering uninterrupted views across the bow and out to sea. This area provides a sense of command and offers a more private space for guests seeking a moment of solitude. The expansive vista makes it an inspiring spot for photographers or those who simply wish to absorb the vastness of the ocean, feeling the sea breeze on their face as the yacht glides through the waves.
Swim Platform Access
At the stern, a broad swim platform offers effortless access to the inviting turquoise waters. This dedicated space transforms the yacht into a private beach club, perfect for refreshing dips, launching water toys, or simply sitting at the water's edge. It serves as the gateway to aquatic adventures, allowing guests to seamlessly transition from the deck to the refreshing embrace of the Mediterranean Sea.
Accommodation
MELTEMI comfortably accommodates eighteen guests across eight well-appointed cabins, a rare offering for a yacht of her size. Each cabin is a thoughtfully designed haven, featuring traditional timber finishes and soothing colour palettes, ensuring a restful night’s sleep after a day of exploration. The layout comprises a flexible configuration of double and twin berths, making her ideal for larger family gatherings or groups of friends. While not featuring a sprawling master suite in the conventional sense, each room offers a private, air-conditioned sanctuary with its own en-suite facilities, providing comfort and privacy for all on board.
The culinary journey aboard MELTEMI is a celebration of the East Mediterranean's vibrant flavours. The dedicated onboard chef crafts delightful dishes using the freshest local ingredients, from sun-ripened tomatoes to just-caught seafood. Meals are typically enjoyed al fresco on the expansive aft deck, where the sea breeze and stunning views enhance every bite. From leisurely breakfasts as the sun rises, to elegant dinners under a blanket of stars, each meal is a bespoke experience, tailored to individual preferences and dietary requirements, promising an authentic taste of the region.
While MELTEMI does not feature a dedicated spa or gym, the entire yacht inherently promotes a sense of wellbeing. The constant presence of the sea, the gentle rocking motion, and the opportunity for daily swims directly from the swim platform soothe the mind and body. The ample deck spaces provide perfect spots for morning meditation or a quiet stretch, enveloped by the revitalising sea air and the serene beauty of the East Mediterranean landscape.
MELTEMI provides excellent opportunities for aquatic enjoyment. A nimble tender ensures seamless transfers to secluded coves and charming coastal villages, allowing guests to explore hidden gems. For those seeking active pursuits, a range of snorkelling gear invites discovery of the vibrant underwater world, while paddleboards offer a serene way to glide across the calm, azure waters. These thoughtfully selected toys enhance the experience, inviting guests to fully immerse themselves in the Mediterranean's aquatic playground.

What a yacht like MELTEMI costs to own — not just to charter
A charter week on MELTEMI is a fixed, all-in number. Ownership of a 22m yacht in this class is a five-year commitment — crew payroll, insurance, class and refit reserves, berthing and depreciation. Our yacht ownership vs charter vs fractional ownership study runs the real five-year cost of a €15 million yacht against the equivalent charter spend, and the most profitable yachts for owners ranking shows how much of that stack charter revenue actually recovers.
