We've just received word of an exceptional opportunity from our Croatian partners. The magnificent Rara Avis — Latin for "rare bird," and quite frankly, one of the most sought-after luxury yacht charters in the Adriatic — is offering a 10% seasonal discount throughout May 2026.
This isn't just any yacht. At 33 meters, Rara Avis consistently books solid, year after year. There's a reason for that.
Why This Croatia Yacht Charter Stands Apart
Built under the meticulous eye of Captain and owner Časlav Reljić, Rara Avis represents everything we love about Croatian craftsmanship. Her six elegant en-suite cabins accommodate up to 12 guests, but the real magic lies in the details that set her apart from the typical charter fleet.
The sundeck jacuzzi? Perfection. The dedicated swimming platform with jet ski access? Brilliant. But we're particularly impressed by thoughtful touches like the telescope and cinema screen setup for evening entertainment under the stars. It's these kinds of considered amenities that transform a luxury charter holiday from merely impressive to unforgettable.
The Complete Private Yacht Charter Experience
What really distinguishes Rara Avis is her approach to service. Captain Reljić's crew of six doesn't just maintain the yacht — they curate experiences. Their insider knowledge of Croatia's hidden coves, historic towns, and pristine islands means you're not just chartering a yacht; you're gaining access to the Adriatic's best-kept secrets.
The water toys collection reads like a luxury resort inventory: SeaBobs, Sea Doo, fishing equipment, kayaks, paddleboards, and even gym equipment including their "Gym Monster" setup. We've sailed aboard vessels with impressive toy garages before, but Rara Avis goes several steps further.
Croatia's Most Coveted Charter Dates
May in Croatia offers something special — shoulder season perfection. The crowds haven't yet descended on Dubrovnik and Split, the weather is gloriously warm without the intense summer heat, and the water is crystal clear. It's arguably the best time for a Croatia yacht charter, which makes this 10% discount particularly valuable.
The accommodation layout is thoughtfully designed: a generous 30-square-meter master cabin, a 16-square-meter VIP cabin, and four additional cabins at 13 square meters each. The twin cabins convert to doubles, offering flexibility for different group configurations.
The Numbers That Matter
Base charter rates start at €65,000 per week, plus the standard VAT and APA. With the May discount, you're looking at significant savings on what's already exceptional value for a yacht of this caliber and reputation.
But here's the reality about Rara Avis: she books solid. This May opportunity won't last long. The yacht's reputation precedes her, and savvy charter guests return season after season. We've seen it repeatedly — once you've experienced the Croatian coastline from Rara Avis' deck, everything else feels like a compromise.
This is your chance to secure dates aboard one of the Adriatic's most coveted private yacht charters. May 2026 availability won't wait.
