Weekly Yacht Charter in the Mediterranean
From a week in the Pitiusas to a three-week western basin passage. Fully crewed, owner-direct.
At a glance
Weekly yacht charter in the Mediterranean through Aurelius Society means seven to twenty-eight nights aboard a fully-crewed yacht — Ibiza and Formentera at the front, optional crossings to Mallorca and Cabrera, with longer passages reaching Sardinia, Corsica, the Côte d'Azur and the Italian Riviera. The fleet ranges from 24-metre flybridges to the 35-metre Benetti flagship. Weekly base rates start around €35,000 (mid-flybridge) and reach €140,000+ for large superyachts; APA of 25–35% covers fuel and provisioning.
A week is the format the office runs most for serious yacht charter. Three nights settles the family in; four to five nights is when the rhythm of the boat takes over; seven is what most repeat clients now book from the start.
The standard itineraries fan out from Marina Botafoc: the seven-night Pitiusas loop (Ibiza + Formentera), the ten-night Balearic circuit (adding Mallorca and Cabrera), the eighteen-night Italian Riviera run (Bonifacio + Côte d'Azur + Portofino), the twenty-night western Mediterranean passage. All charters owner-direct, fully crewed, chef on board from day one.
The fleet
Yachts for the week — 24m and over
35.0 mFriendship
12 guests + 6 crew
115ft Benetti — the flagship of the fleet. Refit in 2019, full-beam master suite, four further guest cabins, and a sundeck built for shaded dining at twelve. A crew of six runs the boat as a household: chef, two stewards, captain, two engineers. Built for weeks aboard, not days.
31.0 mDark Knight
12 guests + 4 crew
102ft Leopard with twin MTUs, 26 knots flat. Built for owners who'd rather arrive than cruise — Formentera in forty minutes, Mallorca before lunch. Twelve guests across five staterooms; a crew of four who've been aboard since the 2023 refit.
31.0 mLa Romana
12 guests + 4 crew
Sister hull to Dark Knight, refit 2024. Same Leopard 102 chassis, same twin MTUs — finished in warm teak and cream. Flybridge jacuzzi, foredeck sun pads, a tender lift that handles 4.2m. Quieter at speed than the original.
30.2 mLady KC
12 guests + 3 crew
99ft Maiora with zero-speed stabilisers — comfortable at anchor in any swell. Flybridge jacuzzi, sun beds, sound system, and a full provisioning package included: seabob, jet ski, paddleboards, drinks. The reliable choice for guests who value stillness over speed.
27.0 mAya One
12 guests + 3 crew
27m Leopard 90 — sport-yacht performance with a flybridge that runs the full length of the upper deck. 27 knots cruise on triple MTUs, three doubles plus a twin, full crew of three. The fastest hull in the larger fleet and the most generous toy package: two seabobs, two paddleboards, a jet ski.
28.2 mDrift
12 guests · day · 10 overnight
92ft Mangusta 92 — open Italian sport flybridge, 28m hull, 5-cabin layout, full crew of three. Twin diesels, 25 knots cruise, fully equipped kitchen, A/C throughout, jet ski + 2 seabobs + 2 paddleboards on board.

Questions we hear
Most-asked.
What's the minimum charter length on a Mediterranean weekly?+
Most owners accept five-night minimum for the larger yachts; seven nights is standard. Four-night charters are accepted by some owners outside peak weeks.
Can a single charter cover multiple countries?+
Yes — multi-country weekly charters are routine. Spanish Balearics → Bonifacio (France) → Costa Smeralda (Italy) is a typical 14-night routing. The office handles the cross-border paperwork.
How does VAT work for multi-country charters?+
VAT is calculated by the time spent in each jurisdiction's waters. Spanish VAT (21%) applies for Balearic days; French VAT (10% under the French commercial regime) for Côte d'Azur days; Italian VAT (22%, reducible) for Italian days. The office structures the invoice properly.
Are crossings part of the charter time?+
Yes — every night the yacht is in use, including transit nights, counts toward the charter total. Most multi-island weeks plan one or two transit days; the route is shaped by the captain at the start of the trip and adjusted to the weather.
Can the office add a chef, photographer or helicopter mid-week?+
Yes. Most additions can be arranged within 24–48 hours. Helicopters are typically pre-booked; chefs and photographers can be added on shorter notice in the Balearics.
