The ultimate flagship experience. Absolute luxury, designed for VIP clients who want no compromises. Contact us for bespoke multi-day or full-day itineraries. Includes top-tier catering, exclusive drinks, and VIP transfers.

What Affects the Price — the Variables

Duration is the primary cost driver. A 3-4-hour charter covers a coastal cruise with a swimming stop. A full-day charter (8–9 hours) is a complete ocean experience — morning departure, lunch on the water, afternoon swimming, return at sunset.

Vessel determines the base rate. The difference reflects vessel size, equipment level, crew capacity, and the scope of included services.

Additional services are quoted separately and agreed upon before booking:

  • Food & Exclusive Wines: Bespoke catering menus, fresh local seafood, and high-end alcohol selections.
  • Decorations & Flowers: Custom floral arrangements for proposals, weddings, or anniversaries.
  • Cake Delivery: Freshly baked custom cakes for birthdays.
  • Professional Media: Coordination with top-tier local photographers and videographers.

Because every event is unique, we do not use rigid "packages" for these extras. All additional services are highly personalized and calculated individually based on your specific vision. Tell us what you want, and we will quote it exactly.

The Per-Person Maths: Why Private Charters Make Sense When you divide the total cost by the number of guests, a private charter often competes directly with premium shared tickets.

Vessel Capacity 3-Hour Price Per Person (Full Capacity)

Libby's Waterfront Up to 7 €440 ~€62

Skyline Up to 12 €590 ~€49 Oh la la Up to 12 €820 ~€68

Tigresa Up to 12 €2,000+ VIP / Custom

At 7 guests on the Libby's Waterfront, you pay €62 per person for a private vessel, dedicated crew, and flexible route. A group tour at €50–70 per person puts you on a shared boat with 15–20 strangers. The difference in price is €0–17 per person. The difference in experience is another category entirely.

What's Included in Every Price — No Exceptions Every AMAR charter price includes:

  • Vessel & Professional Crew: A licensed captain and attentive crew (e.g., the Skyline features 2 crew members for enhanced service).
  • Safety equipment: life jackets including children's sizes, first aid, VHF radio.
  • Drinks & Alcohol: Cava, wine, beer, water, and refreshing soft drinks are always included.
  • Snacks & Food: From fresh fruit and basic tapas to premium snacks, depending on the yacht category.
  • Water Toys: Snorkelling equipment is standard. Many yachts also include paddleboards (SUP).
  • Fuel & Port Fees: Included for the agreed itinerary.
  • Transfers (Select Yachts Only): Premium VIP charters, such as the Tigresa or our highest-tier shared tours, include dedicated hotel transfers.

(Reminder: Following post-COVID health and hygiene protocols, AMAR no longer provides shared towels. Please bring your own). What is never charged extra: fuel surcharges, port fees, tips (appreciated but never solicited or mandatory), equipment use, and swimming stop access.

When Pricing Represents Value — and When It Doesn't A charter is a good value when:

The vessel matches your group size and occasion. The crew delivers service that makes the day memorable. The equipment works. The route adapts to your preferences and conditions. You leave the boat feeling the price was fair for what you received.

A charter is poor value when:

You overpay for a vessel too large for your group (2 people on a 12-guest yacht). You underpay for a group tour and receive a crowded, impersonal, equipment-worn experience that wastes your limited holiday time. You book a "luxury" charter from an unknown operator and discover the vessel doesn't match the photos.

AMAR's approach:

We recommend the vessel that fits your group — not the most expensive option. If an intimate, fast cruiser like Libby's Waterfront is the right choice for your small group, we say so. If a VIP flagship like the Tigresa is unnecessary for your occasion, we say that too. Pricing transparency starts with honest recommendations.

Frequently Asked Questions About Charter Pricing Is a private yacht charter expensive in Tenerife?

It depends on the vessel and group size. Libby's Waterfront starts from €440 for 3 hours, which is approximately €62 per person for a group of 7. That's comparable to a premium shared ticket, but with entirely private service. On the other end, the Tigresa at €2,000+ is a VIP product for premium expectations.

Are there hidden costs?

No. The price confirmed at booking includes the vessel, crew, fuel, port fees, drinks, snacks, and snorkelling gear. (Note: Towels are not provided due to health protocols). Additional services (custom catering, bespoke decorations) are quoted and agreed upon separately before the charter. Nothing is unexpectedly added on the water.

Do prices change by season?

AMAR does not apply surge pricing. Rates are consistent year-round. Peak season (June–October) affects availability — popular vessels like the Tigresa book out faster — but not the price per charter.

Can I negotiate the price?

AMAR's pricing reflects the vessel quality, crew expertise, and included services. For multi-day bookings or repeat clients, contact us directly to discuss arrangements.

What is the deposit and payment process?

A deposit secures the booking. Final payment is due on the day of the charter. Rescheduling due to weather is always free. Specific deposit amounts and cancellation terms are discussed at booking — no surprises.

How far in advance should I book?

1–2 weeks for standard dates. 3–4 weeks for peak season weekends (June–October), especially for highly requested vessels like the Oh la la or Tigresa. Last-minute availability is sometimes possible on the Skyline or Libby's Waterfront, but advance booking is always recommended.

Is it cheaper to book directly or through a platform?

Book directly with AMAR for the most accurate pricing, full vessel selection, and direct communication with the team. Third-party platforms may carry additional booking fees.
