Bachelorette Yacht Charter Ibiza — Three Days, the Office's Most-Booked
Direct answer
Bachelorette yacht charters in Ibiza run most successfully as three-day, two-night formats: Friday villa arrival + short evening cruise, Saturday Formentera crossing + sundown party, Sunday brunch + return. 8–12 close friends, owner-direct yacht with chef, optional DJ at sundown. Typical all-in budget €25,000–€45,000 for 12 guests including accommodation, yacht, chef, DJ.
The hen weekend in Ibiza, run well, is the format the office is asked to plan more than almost any other. The structure we keep returning to — across dozens of bookings — is three days, two nights, the bride and her closest friends, one yacht, one villa for the morning of day one and the evening of day three.
The shape of the weekend
Day one — the slow start
Arrivals through the morning at the villa. Lunch at the villa, a long aperitif by the pool. Embarkation at 16:00 for a short evening cruise — sundown at the lee of Es Vedrà, dinner on the aft deck, cabins by midnight. Day one is intentionally calm; the hen weekend should not peak on its first evening.
Day two — the big day
Crossing to Formentera in the morning. Swim at Espalmador, lunch ashore at Beso Beach or aboard at Cala Saona. The afternoon is paddle boards, music, the bride's choice of activity (yoga teacher brought across from Ibiza, tender ride to a small cove, sometimes a sunset photographer). The sundown dinner is the moment of the trip; the bow becomes the dance floor from 22:00.
Day three — the recovery
Brunch on the aft deck from 10:30 — bloody marys for the brave, fresh juices for the rest. The boat moves slowly back to Ibiza along the west coast with a final swim at Cala Bassa. Disembarkation by 16:00. A quiet dinner at the villa.
Quiet logistics
- A welcome gift for the bride from the host — wrapped, in her cabin, when she arrives
- Cards from the friends who could not come, in her cabin on the second night
- A photographer for ninety minutes at sundown on day two only
- Discreet sober support — non-alcoholic drinks menu without it being announced
- A driver on standby through the weekend for unscheduled departures
- Optional DJ for the second-night sundown set — pre-paired with the boat's system
Costs — ballpark
For 12 guests, the typical all-in budget runs €25,000–€45,000 covering: yacht charter + chef + crew (€18–€30k), villa for two nights (€6–€10k), optional DJ (€1.5–€2.5k), photographer (€800– €1.5k), driver and incidentals. Per person per day: €700–€1,250.

Frequently asked
- Can the bride bring more than 12 friends?
- Maritime regulations cap any single yacht at 12 guests. For larger parties (13–24+) the office arranges a second yacht alongside; the dinner happens simultaneously on both boats and a tender shuttles between them.
- Can we hire a DJ on the yacht?
- Yes. The office has a short list of DJs we recommend specifically for yacht parties (the acoustics, wind and salt are different from a club). Tell us the date and we'll quote both the DJ and the boat.
- What if some of the group don't drink?
- We brief the stewardess on a parallel non-alcoholic drinks menu — properly built craft mocktails, not just sodas. It's not announced; it's simply present.
