Choose by type and size first, and by yard second. In Croatia a crewed Lagoon or Sunreef catamaran costs about €33,000 to €76,500 a week in high season, a 90 to 110 foot Ferretti about €75,000, and a Princess of 98 to 131 feet €72,000 to €195,000.
Those are typical weeks at the standard we recommend, catamarans from €20,000 and motor yachts from €50,000, before the APA and 13% VAT. Each builder guide shows the full range, smaller yachts included.
Which yacht builders can you charter in Croatia?
The builders we charter most in Croatia fall into three groups:
How do the yacht builders compare in Croatia?
| Builder | Type | Most common size | Typical guests | Typical high-season week |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lagoon | Sailing catamarans | 55 to 60 ft | 8 to 10 | €33,000 |
| Sunreef | Semi-custom sailing, power and Eco catamarans | 60 to 80 ft | 6 to 10 | €42,500 |
| Ferretti | Flybridge motor yachts | 90 to 110 ft | 10 to 12 | €75,000 |
| Sunseeker | Sport and flybridge yachts | 100 to 129 ft | 8 to 12 | €79,000 |
| Azimut | Flybridge and Grande yachts | 80 to 129 ft | 8 to 12 | €86,750 |
| Princess | Flybridge yachts and superyachts | 98 to 131 ft | 10 to 12 | €117,000 |
| Benetti | Superyachts | 130 ft and up | 12 | €196,000 |
The typical week is the middle high-season rate of the yachts cruising Croatia that meet the standard we recommend, October 2026. The APA and 13% Croatian VAT come on top, and our Croatia yacht charter cost guide works through a real example.
Which yacht builder suits a family in Croatia?
For a family of eight to ten, a catamaran is usually the answer in Croatia, with equal cabins and a stable ride in the island anchorages. A Lagoon 55 or 60 gives the most space for the money, and a Sunreef adds more finish and, on some models, a fifth cabin for children.
If the family wants to run from Split to Dubrovnik and back in a week, a 100 foot Ferretti covers the distance with time to spare.
Catamaran or motor yacht: does the builder matter more?
No. The choice between a catamaran and a motor yacht changes the week far more than the badge on either. Below €50,000 a week a catamaran usually wins in Croatia, and above it a motor yacht adds speed and a classic yacht feel.
