BELLA

Bella — Croatia Bella belongs to that rare category of large charter yachts built around a simple idea: no one on board should have to compromise. Twenty-one guests across ten cabins, and a layout that lets several families or a full group of friends share the same week without ever feeling on top of one another. The accommodation is unusually generous in its top tier — three owner's cabins rather than the customary one, which changes the whole dynamic of a group charter. Two further cabins are fitted with a double bed and sleep two, two more offer twin beds, and the remaining cabins complete the ten. Detailed bed configuration is available on request, and we'll always confirm it against the season's final plan before you commit. Each cabin is voice-operated, so lighting, climate and blinds answer without a search for the right switch — the kind of detail you stop noticing after a day, which is precisely the point. Where Bella really distinguishes herself is in the spaces that exist for their own sake. A gentlemen's whiskey and cigar lounge for the end of the evening. A beauty lounge. A dedicated cinema room. A fitness and pilates room for the morning hour before anyone else surfaces. And a children's playroom — a genuine one, not a converted corner — which is what makes a multi-generational charter work rather than merely survive. The Croatian cruising grounds suit her well: short hops between islands, long lunches at anchor, and evenings alongside in towns that reward a yacht of this presence. The crew runs the yacht discreetly and to a standard that matches the accommodation — briefed on preferences before you arrive, visible when needed and invisible otherwise. A comprehensive selection of water toys completes the picture.
