Frequently Asked Questions About Luxury Mini Cruiser Desire
How do package-based yachts handle expenses?
Instead of using an A.P.A., certain yachts cover operating costs through fixed packages. Specifically, these may include half-board or full-board meals and various beverage options. Furthermore, port taxes and fuel for motorized water sports are often handled as flat fees. Typically, these extras are settled directly with the crew on the day of embarkation. This arrangement provides a clear, upfront overview of your holiday costs.
Is it advisable to obtain travel insurance?
Yes, we strongly recommend securing comprehensive coverage for your peace of mind. Specifically, guests should consider Cancellation Insurance to protect their financial investment against unforeseen events. Additionally, Medical and Personal Accident Insurance is vital for your safety at sea. We also suggest Liability and Baggage Insurance to cover third-party claims or lost belongings. Consequently, your broker can help arrange the most suitable protection for your journey.
Can we customize the itinerary for our 18-cabin yacht?
Absolutely, as Desire offers a fully bespoke Adriatic experience. To prepare, we send a preference questionnaire eight weeks before boarding. This allows our 9 crew members to tailor meals and celebrations perfectly. Furthermore, the Captain adapts the daily route based on your wishes and weather. This ensures you discover secluded bays in complete privacy.
What are the onboard policies for connectivity and smoking?
Desire provides Wi-Fi to keep you seamlessly connected during your journey. Regarding smoking, it is strictly prohibited in all interior areas for safety. However, guests may smoke in designated outdoor spaces on the 3-deck exterior. Additionally, please inform us if you need a stable connection for business. We will then optimize the service for your specific route.
Are gratuities for the crew mandatory?
While tips are not strictly mandatory, they are a long-standing tradition to reward the crew’s hard work. Generally, a guideline of 10–15% of the charter fee is suggested to acknowledge exceptional service. However, the final amount should always reflect your personal level of satisfaction. Once provided, the Captain ensures the gratuity is distributed fairly among all team members. Ultimately, this gesture remains entirely at your discretion.
