Your Experience, Included in Your Luxury Yacht Charter Itinerary

Amalfi: Arrive to port onboard your luxury yacht charter. The Amalfi Coast and the Sorrento Peninsula are beautiful to behold from the water, and enchanting to experience firsthand. Step off your yacht and make your way in style to the charming and famed, Hotel Santa Caterina. Awaiting your arrival is one of the members of the Gambardella family, owners of the celebrated hotel, ready to welcome you like a true VIP. See the amazing property, and marvel as you overlook this large estate that winds its way down the cliffside along with a series of scenic natural terraces in the rock face. Drink in hand, let the Gambardella family member escort you down the private elevators or stairs to access the exclusive beach club, overlooking the incredible waters. Next make your way to one of the two restaurants (of your choice), which both boast endless sunset panoramic sea views. Let us arrange for you a discrete photographer to capture your style and visit to this gorgeous locale.

Ravello: Make your way high up the scenic cliffs to the medieval hilltop village of Ravello, where you will discover for yourself the stunning Palazzo Avino- once a 12th-century private villa for a noble Italian family. Today, it is one of Italy’s most celebrated five-star hotels, complete with Michelin dining. Upon arrival, you will be warmly welcomed as a VIP by Mariella or Attilia Avino, to the Palazzo Avino, and escorted to look down from the terraces upon the coast’s most picturesque sites and fishing villages. As the owners’ VIP, make your way to your table at the Michelin-star Rossellini’s, where your meal will be complemented by the incredible seascape views from the restaurant’s glorious heights.  “I love the Palazzo,” Managing Director Mariella Avino says. “I love the location. I love the views. I love every single element. I love it because I grew up here. I know its past (my father’s commitment and effort to create the property), I know it’s fantastic to present, and I’m excited to write its future with all my passion, my heart and my love.” Fall in love with Palazzo Avino and get to know the family behind it for yourself.
