The Ultimate Mallorca Catamaran Experience: Private Charter or Shared Trip?

Deciding on the perfect luxury catamaran excursion in Mallorca is a delightful challenge. The turquoise waters of the Bay of Palma beckon, promising a day of sun-drenched bliss, gourmet food, and unforgettable memories. But which experience is right for you? The exclusive seclusion of a private charter or the vibrant atmosphere of a shared trip? As insiders in the Mallorcan luxury scene, we at Azul Catamaran are here to guide you through the options, ensuring you choose the perfect setting for your Mediterranean adventure.

Azul Catamaran, the largest luxury catamaran in Mallorca, offers a versatile platform for both intimate gatherings and larger celebrations. At 24 metres, with three expansive decks and a capacity for up to 98 guests, it’s a vessel designed for unparalleled comfort and style. Operated by the renowned Bluebnc Yachting, a leader in Mallorca's yacht charter industry, Azul Catamaran is a jewel in the crown of the Azul Privé luxury ecosystem. This means your experience is backed by a network of premium services, from seamless airport transfers with Azul Cars to exquisite villa accommodations with Azul Stays.

So, let's explore the fundamental choice: do you reserve this magnificent vessel all for yourself, or do you join a curated shared experience? The answer depends on your group size, budget, and desired level of privacy and customization.

The Pinnacle of Exclusivity: The Full Boat Private Charter

For those seeking the ultimate in privacy, luxury, and personalization, a full boat private charter is the undisputed choice. Starting from €9,000, chartering the entire Azul Catamaran for yourselves transforms it into your private floating paradise. This option is ideal for large family reunions, significant milestone celebrations, corporate retreats, or simply for those who desire complete seclusion with their chosen group of up to 98 guests.

The Advantages of Going Private

Complete Privacy: The most significant benefit is having the entire catamaran to yourselves. Your group can relax, celebrate, and connect without any external interruptions. The three decks, including the main deck, the sun-drenched top deck, and the exclusive VIP flybridge, are your private domain.

Customized Itinerary: While our standard routes, such as the stunning journey to Cala Vella & Portals Vells or the panoramic tour of the Palma Coast, are spectacular, a private charter allows for a bespoke itinerary. Would you like to spend more time anchored in a secluded cove for swimming and snorkeling? Or perhaps you'd prefer a sunset cruise with the dramatic Tramuntana mountains as your backdrop? Our captain and crew will work with you to craft the perfect day at sea.

Tailored Experience: Every detail of your day can be customized. From the gourmet Mediterranean catering menu to the playlist curated by an optional professional DJ, the experience is shaped around your preferences. You have the freedom to set the schedule, the pace, and the ambiance of your luxury catamaran excursion.

When to Choose a Private Charter

A private charter is the perfect solution for:

  • Weddings and Special Events: Create a truly unforgettable wedding reception or anniversary celebration on the water.
  • Corporate Events: Impress clients or reward your team with a unique and inspiring corporate outing.
  • Large Family Gatherings: Bring multiple generations together for a day of shared memories in a private, safe, and luxurious environment.
  • Discerning Groups: For those who value privacy and bespoke service above all else, a private charter is the only way to experience the Bay of Palma.

Imagine arriving at the port in a luxury vehicle from Azul Cars, stepping aboard your private catamaran, and being greeted with a glass of champagne. The day unfolds exactly as you envisioned, a seamless blend of relaxation, adventure, and five-star service. This is the promise of a private charter on Azul Catamaran.

The Social and the Splendid: Shared Experiences

If you're a smaller group or a couple looking to experience the grandeur of Azul Catamaran without chartering the entire vessel, our shared experiences offer a fantastic and accessible alternative. We have meticulously designed three distinct zones on the catamaran, allowing you to choose the atmosphere that best suits your style. This innovative approach ensures that even on a shared trip, the experience feels spacious and exclusive.

General Access: The Heart of the Action

For €5,400, the General Access ticket accommodates up to 60 guests on the expansive main deck. This is the vibrant heart of the catamaran, where you can enjoy the premium open bar, savor the delicious gourmet catering, and enjoy the optional DJ service. With ample space for lounging and socializing, it’s a fantastic way to meet like-minded travelers and soak up the lively atmosphere of a Mediterranean summer day.

VIP Flybridge: An Elevated Experience

For those seeking a more exclusive feel, the VIP Flybridge is available for €1,800 for a group of up to 20 guests. This elevated deck offers the best views on the catamaran, with comfortable lounge seating and a sense of privacy from the main deck below. It’s the perfect option for smaller groups who want a dedicated space to call their own while still enjoying the amenities and social energy of the shared trip.

Reserved Stern: Your Private Nook

Similarly, the Reserved Stern area can be booked for €1,800 for a group of up to 18 guests. This semi-private section at the back of the main deck provides a more intimate setting, perfect for small family groups or friends who want to be close to the water and the swimming platforms. It offers a degree of seclusion while remaining connected to the overall experience.

The Best of Both Worlds

Choosing a shared experience doesn't mean compromising on luxury. All guests, regardless of their ticket type, enjoy the same high-end amenities: the premium open bar, the exquisite catering, the professional crew, and access to water toys like slides and snorkeling equipment. It’s a model that balances social energy with personal space, making a luxury catamaran excursion accessible to a wider range of group sizes and budgets.

Making the Right Choice for You

So, how do you decide? Here’s a simple breakdown:

  • Choose a Private Charter if: You have a large group (20+), you desire absolute privacy, you want a fully customized itinerary and menu, or you are celebrating a major life or corporate event.

Whether you opt for the unparalleled exclusivity of a private charter or the vibrant community of a shared trip, your day on Azul Catamaran will be a highlight of your time in Mallorca. It’s more than just a day on the water; it’s an entry into the world of Azul Privé, where every detail is curated for an exceptional experience.
