In short

Bali luxury yacht hire means booking a private motor yacht for an agreed block of hours or a full day, crew and skipper included, from Benoa Harbour. Most premium hires run a four-hour minimum, are priced per yacht rather than per guest, and cover the Nusa Dua, Uluwatu and Nusa Penida day range.

What's included

What a luxury yacht hire includes

“Hire” and “charter” mean the same thing here: exclusive use of one vessel and her crew for a set window — not a per-seat ticket.
  • Exclusive use

    The yacht for your named party only, for the booked hours.

  • Captain & crew

    Professional crew, with a host or stewardess on larger vessels.

  • Fuel for the route

    Within the standard day range; longer or faster runs are quoted separately.

  • Soft drinks, water & ice

    Catering and alcohol arranged on request.

  • Safety & insurance

    Standard safety equipment and insured operation through the licensed partner.

  • Concierge coordination

    Airport-to-marina car, timing, dietary notes and occasion setup.

Add-ons — premium catering, champagne, private chef, water toys, AV, photography, flowers or cake — are itemised per request.

Hire length

How long is the minimum yacht hire

Most luxury motor-yacht hires from Benoa start at a four-hour minimum — right for a sunset cruise or a focused island run. Full-day hires of eight to ten hours open up the offshore islands properly.

Transit times depend on the yacht's speed and the sea state, so treat them as planning ranges, not promises.

  • Nusa Dua The Bukit resort belt: calm water and easy swim stops, close to Benoa.
  • Uluwatu The south-coast cliff lines, best in good light.
  • Nusa Lembongan Beach clubs and snorkelling — a full-day favourite.
  • Nusa Penida Crystal Bay and the manta sites, the longest offshore leg.
