Some yachts feel designed for the brochure. Valinor feels designed for the sea. This 50-metre Westport — built in 2013 and comprehensively refitted in 2024 — is one of those rare luxury yacht charter offerings that genuinely justifies every superlative. And for summer 2027, she's coming to the Mediterranean. We think this is one of the most exciting charter announcements we've seen in years.
Meet Valinor
At 164 feet, Valinor accommodates 12 guests across six beautifully appointed staterooms — including a magnificent master suite on the bridge deck, complete with a private balcony, steam shower, and a walk-in closet that would shame most five-star hotels. A dedicated VIP stateroom sits on the main deck for guests who want a little extra seclusion. Twelve crew look after you — one for each guest, if you think about it that way, and that ratio shows.
The 2024 refit brought everything up to the sharpest possible standard. Zero-speed stabilisers make anchorages genuinely serene. Starlink means you stay connected — or blissfully switch off — entirely on your own terms. The entertaining spaces, spread across multiple decks, are vast and considered: there's always somewhere private to retreat to, and always somewhere spectacular to gather.
Greece Yacht Charter — Islands Without End
A Greece yacht charter aboard Valinor opens up one of the most rewarding cruising grounds on the planet. Picture slow mornings at anchor in the Cyclades — the sea an improbable shade of blue, breakfast served on deck as the island of Santorini rises in the distance. Or push north into the Ionian, where the pace drops further, the bays are quieter, and the tavernas on the waterfront still feel like a genuine secret. Greece rewards the unhurried, and Valinor is built for exactly that kind of travel.
The water toy inventory is frankly exceptional — a 34-foot Regulator towed tender, two SeaDoo jetskis, a pair of Lift Foil e-foils, Seabobs, paddleboards, and a full array of snorkel and fishing gear. Greek waters have never had a better companion.
Croatia Yacht Charter — Dalmatia at Its Finest
Croatia yacht charter has a loyal following, and rightly so. The Dalmatian coast is, frankly, unmatched for sheer visual drama — limestone cliffs dropping straight into water so clear you can read the seabed from the sundeck, medieval walled towns rising from harbour edges, islands that appear on the horizon just when you need them to. Valinor handles it all with authority. Her size commands attention in ports like Hvar and Korčula, yet her tenders and toys mean the hidden coves between them are just as accessible. The 19-foot RIB alone opens up dozens of passages too shallow for the main vessel.
A Croatia charter here is equal parts culture and pure indulgence. Long lunches ashore. Late nights on deck. Early starts to beat the crowds to the best anchorages. Valinor's crew — genuinely dynamic by every account — make all of it feel effortless.
Italy Yacht Charter — From Sicily to Venice
The Italy yacht charter options aboard Valinor are almost bewildering in their range. Sicily and the south: ancient, volcanic, raw — where the food alone justifies the trip. Sardinia's Costa Smeralda: glamorous, turquoise, unapologetically beautiful. The north, from the Amalfi Coast and its vertiginous clifftop villages all the way up to Venice, where arriving by a yacht of this calibre feels exactly as theatrical as it should. We'd struggle to pick a favourite — though a week drifting between Positano, Capri, and Ischia on a private yacht charter would test anyone's desire to go anywhere else.
The full Italian cruising region is on the table: north and south mainland, Sicily, Sardinia, and the extraordinary lagoon approaches to Venice. Few yachts can offer a charter guest this breadth across a single country.
