A practical guide for guests planning a Maia Fair charter
A private yacht charter in Marbella costs from €4,375 for a 4 hour half day charter and from €7,000 for an 8 hour full day, aboard Maia Fair, a 72ft Sunseeker 68 Sport Yacht for up to 12 guests. All prices include experienced crew, fuel, full watersports package (jet ski, Seabob F5-SR, paddleboards, water skis, wakeboard) and entertainment systems. Overnight charters and multi day extended charters are available on application.
Every Maia Fair Marbella yacht charter price includes the full crew (skipper plus crew throughout), all fuel for the route, the complete watersports package, Sonos and Fusion entertainment systems, full UK MCA commercial vessel certification, lifejackets and liferaft for all guests, drinking water and ice. There are no hidden extras for fuel surcharges, crew gratuities, equipment hire or marina fees at Puerto Banus.
Catering and champagne are quoted separately based on the menu and group size, typically from €45 per guest for grazing platters up to €180 per guest for full multi course Spanish menus. Tender drops at beach clubs ashore may incur a small marina fee depending on the venue. Optional photography and video can be arranged through the crew at additional cost.
Maia Fair charter prices are consistent across the standard April to October season, with a small premium for high season weekends in July and August. Out of season charters from November through March are available on application and typically priced 10 to 20 percent below the standard rate. Special weekends including Marbella Luxury Weekend and the Puerto Banus regatta carry a peak premium.
Compared to per-person commercial yacht trips on the Costa del Sol, which typically run €60 to €120 per person for a shared 2 hour cruise, a Maia Fair private charter works out at €365 per guest for a half day with full luxury inclusions, the entire yacht to your group, and total flexibility on route and timing.

All Maia Fair prices are for private hire of the entire yacht, not per person. €4,375 buys the whole 72ft Sunseeker for a 4 hour half day charter for up to 12 guests.
Spanish IVA at the relevant rate is included in the quoted price. There are no additional taxes added at the point of booking.
Crew gratuities are not included and are entirely at the guest's discretion. Industry standard on the Mediterranean is 10 to 15 percent of the charter price, though guests are under no obligation.
No. The price is for the whole yacht regardless of group size. Smaller groups simply have more space to spread out.

Cancellations made more than 30 days before charter receive a full refund of the deposit. 14 to 30 days, 50 percent of the deposit is retained. Inside 14 days, the full charter price is non refundable. Weather cancellations by the captain receive a full refund or rebook.
Multi day bookings, off season charters and repeat client charters are quoted with preferential rates. Contact the crew with your specific requirement and group size for a tailored quote.
Maia Fair sits in the upper end of the Marbella private charter market, reflecting the 72ft Sunseeker class, the watersports inclusions, the experienced crew and the UK MCA commercial certification. Cheaper options exist on smaller boats with fewer inclusions, but few private 70ft+ yacht charters from Puerto Banus offer the full inclusion package at this price point.
