Price Terms
Plus Expenses - add APA to the price you see
Plus Expenses arrangement includes the boat and crew only (without tip).
All additional/variable expenses such as Gas and Food are deducted from an Advance Provisioning Allowance (APA) - an additional deposit that is added on top of the charter price.
The expenses, such as provisioning, fuel, marina fees, are deducted from the APA. The APA is based on the price of the yacht and ranges from 15% (crewed sailing yachts) to 30% (motor yachts with higher fuel consumption).
For a sailing catamaran like La Désirade, the expected APA is 20% to 35% of the charter price (€12,900 - €22,575), making the charter cost €77,400 to €87,075. Exact amount will be confirmed after inquiry.
You can actively control these expenses in your preference sheet (local vs. imported beverages) and by choice of itinerary (distances traveled).
The remainder of the APA is returned after charter.

Reviews
It is with a deep sense of emotion that we left LA DÉSIRADE and her crew. We were truly touched by your kindness and availability, to the point that we felt treated like friends!
Please know that we will always keep the fondest memories of each of you.
Of course, we also appreciated the luxury and refinement of La Désirade, which greatly contributed to the enjoyment of our cruise.
