Questions about Meliti
How can I cancel my reservation?
Contact our customer service via email at info@yachtco.net. We will assist you immediately.
What is the security deposit?
The security deposit is a refundable amount the charter company holds during your charter to cover possible damage. You leave it at the base at check-in — usually as a credit-card pre-authorisation or in cash — and it is returned at check-out if the boat comes back undamaged.
What licences do I need to rent Meliti?
Meliti is a crewed charter — she comes with a professional crew, so you do not need any licence to book her.
What additional costs should I expect?
The crew's wages are in the charter price, and obligatory extras are listed on this page. Food, drinks, fuel and port fees come on top — on crewed yachts usually through an APA, an advance of 30–40 % of the charter price that the captain spends against receipts and settles with you at the end. The refundable security deposit is separate.
When do I check in and check out?
Check-in for Meliti is from 17:00 on the day your charter starts, and check-out is by 09:00 on the day it ends. The charter company’s rule for this base: “Return to the base on the evening before until 18:00 hours.”
Who operates Meliti?
Meliti is owned and operated by Istion Yachting, an independent charter company with 275 boats in our catalogue. We act as your charter agent: you book and pay through us, and Istion Yachting hands the boat over at the base.
