CABIN TYPES:
Standard Cabin Type: All our standard cabins, besides their comfortable mattresses, are ensuite with their shower, hair dryer, a wardrobe for storage, reading lights, their A/C device, and an electric fan! Regarding our cabins, we do have a variety of doubles/twins (lower beds/bunk beds) and a few triples and quads, depending on your cruise package and demand.
Premium Cabin Type: Our premium cabins are available on the majority of our gulets, always subject to availability. By premium cabin, we define cabins that have a separate shower box inside the WC and/or larger space available (usually 2/3 s.m.) from our standard ones. Usually, they are located on the stern or the bow of the ship, making them slightly more isolated than the rest of the cabins onboard and they have better sound insulation than the rest since they are bigger.

ACCOMMODATION:

Allocation of cabins is done on-site. All gulets and cabin layouts are different, and cabins are not predetermined.
We strive to room same-gender guests together, but we cannot guarantee this under unexpected situations.
Couples should notify us beforehand for a double private cabin.
Private cabins incur an additional charge of 75% of the total amount for one person.

PORT INFO:
The ports we dock at, at Ag. Nikolaos, Ag. Efimia, Ithaca, Fiskardo, Meganisi, Nydri (Lefkada), and Zante are public.
The only exception is Meganisi’s port, which is private. This means that all ports we visit operate on a first-come, first-served basis. Thus, our Captains are not able to reserve a docking birth beforehand, and that is why the earlier we arrive at each port, the more likely we will find berthing availability.

RESTRICTIONS:
- Bringing your own food and drinks on board is strictly forbidden.
- The itinerary may change due to weather, docking difficulties, or unforeseen circumstances at the captain’s discretion.
- The atmosphere is friendly; all crew members assist during meals; no dedicated waiter is provided.
- Regarding shower water, you can have a shower at any given time of the day. Keep in mind that when the gullet is docked at any of the ports we visit, the engines are turned off, the water flow is reduced, and thus there is no warm/hot water after midnight. Also, all water tanks onboard are limited, meaning when multiple cabins shower at once, hot water is likely to run out faster. If this happens, and you do not have warm/hot water available, inform your operating Captain so that he can activate the water heater. After 15 to 20 minutes, you will have warm/hot water again. Showers are available at any time, but hot water may be limited during specific times; inform the captain for water heater activation. Limited water tanks may result in reduced hot water when multiple cabins shower simultaneously.
- All cabin lights, showers, and toilets onboard work at 24V. Additionally, as the vessels are equipped with batteries that supply an output of 24V, there is no need for an external power supply for the electronics inside your cabin to operate.
- The onboard Wi-Fi router works only when the vessels are connected to the equivalent port’s power supply or while the onboard generator is working.
- The A/C on board works only when the generator is on and running, but unfortunately, due to local port regulations, generators are prohibited from working after midnight. Also, the power supply from the shores at Zante’s Port, Ag. Efimia, Nydri, and Ithaca (weak infrastructure) are not powerful enough to operate all our A/C units simultaneously.
Note: The ports we dock at are at Ag. Nikolaos, Fiskardo, and Meganisi do not have electricity at all.
- The standard daily operating hours for all onboard A/C devices is up to 6 hours and does not include any type of overnight service. For the overnight A/C service, you will have to upgrade your cabin entry at an additional cost of 140€ per person.
- Onboard cleaning service includes daily basic floor cleaning, dusting, bin changing, bathroom cleaning, and sanitization of all shared areas.
- During the weekly cruise, our stewards change sheets and bath towels once.

BEFORE YOU GO, PLEASE REMEMBER TO BRING:
- The only additional expense passengers need to consider are the local port fees, which all guests need to pay in cash upon their arrival directly to the captain. The port fees are at 80€ per person.
- Remember to bring your sunscreen, beach towels, camera, power bank, charger, passport and/or ID, booking confirmation, Visa if required, and Euros in cash, as we cannot guarantee any specific bank ATM at any of the destinations we visit.

MEETING POINTS:
Meeting Point: Zante’s Main Port
Check-in (Embarkation): Saturday (May-October) at 17:00
Departure: Sunday (May - October) at 09:00
Check-out (Disembarkation): Following Saturday at 09:00

If all passengers are onboard before 17:00 on Saturday, the vessel will most probably depart to Ag. Nikolaos (North Zante), instead of departing the following day on Sunday.
