A closer look
Aft Deck Sanctuary
The aft deck serves as the heart of outdoor living. Here, a large al fresco dining table, shaded from the midday sun, invites long, languid lunches with panoramic sea views. Adjacent, comfortable lounging areas provide the perfect spot for morning coffee as the islands wake, or evening cocktails as the sun dips below the horizon, painting the sky in a riot of colour. The direct connection to the water, with easy access for swimming, ensures a seamless transition from deck to ocean.
Foredeck Lounge
Forward, vast trampolines stretch across the catamaran's bows, offering an idyllic perch for sunbathing or simply watching the world drift by. This expansive space is also ideal for quiet contemplation, perhaps with a good book, or for children to play under the watchful eye of the crew. The gentle sway of the yacht and the whisper of the wind create a truly calming environment, far removed from the everyday.
Saloon Serenity
Step inside to discover a bright and airy saloon, thoughtfully designed for both socialising and quiet relaxation. Large windows flood the space with natural light, offering continuous sea vistas. A comfortable L-shaped sofa invites guests to unwind, perhaps enjoying a film on the TV, or engaging in lively conversation. The indoor audio system provides a curated soundtrack to your journey, creating an atmosphere of refined comfort.
Flybridge Vista
Ascend to the flybridge, an elevated haven offering commanding views of the surrounding seascape. This open-air space features additional seating and sunpads, perfect for those seeking an elevated perspective while cruising or at anchor. It's an ideal spot for enjoying a sundowner, feeling the sea breeze, and watching the stars emerge in the clear Mediterranean night sky, far from light pollution.
Galley Hub
The well-appointed galley is where culinary magic unfolds. Equipped with modern appliances, it allows the crew to prepare exquisite meals tailored to your preferences. Though not a guest space, its efficiency and design are integral to the overall charter experience, ensuring constant access to freshly prepared delights and refreshing beverages, from morning espressos to evening aperitifs.
Accommodation
SAMELI comfortably accommodates ten guests across five elegantly appointed cabins, each a private sanctuary designed for restful nights. The layout typically features a lavish master suite, offering ample space and often a private desk or seating area, alongside four equally inviting guest cabins. Each cabin is a haven of peace, featuring soft linens, thoughtful storage, and individual climate control for personalised comfort. The intelligent catamaran design ensures surprising spaciousness and privacy for all on board, allowing guests to retreat and recharge in their own personal domain after a day of sun and sea.
Culinary journeys aboard SAMELI are a highlight of the charter. The onboard chef crafts bespoke menus, inspired by the fresh, vibrant flavours of the East Mediterranean, tailored precisely to your preferences. Dining can be a casual affair on the aft deck, with freshly grilled seafood from the BBQ, or a more formal experience in the saloon, accompanied by fine wines. From sunrise breakfasts to starlit dinners, every meal is an occasion, prepared with passion and served with a backdrop of ever-changing vistas.
While SAMELI does not feature a dedicated spa or gym, the entire yacht and its surroundings offer a profound sense of wellness. Start your day with a refreshing outdoor shower on deck, feeling the invigorating sea air. The expansive deck spaces invite gentle yoga or meditation sessions at sunrise, while the crystal-clear waters provide the ultimate natural therapy for swimming and re-energising. The sheer tranquility of being at sea fosters a deep sense of relaxation and rejuvenation.
The water toy locker aboard SAMELI is brimming with options for aquatic adventure. Glide across the surface on paddleboards or kayaks, exploring hidden coves. Feel the spray as you master the wakeboard or water skis, or embrace the thrill of being towed on a Ringo or tube. For underwater exploration, the Seabob and Sea Scooter offer effortless glides through the turquoise depths, revealing the vibrant marine life beneath. Light fishing gear is also available for those who wish to try their hand at catching dinner.

What a yacht like SAMELI costs to own — not just to charter
A charter week on SAMELI is a fixed, all-in number. Ownership of a 23m 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.
