Some opportunities don't come around twice. Kismet — 122 metres of Lürssen-built, award-winning superyacht — has just opened up for private yacht charter across both the East and West Mediterranean this August and September, following a last-minute cancellation. If you've ever considered what the absolute pinnacle of a luxury charter holiday looks like, this is your answer.
Built Without Compromise
Delivered in 2024 from the Lürssen shipyard — arguably the most respected name in superyacht construction — Kismet was designed to set a new standard. Her exterior lines come from the pen of Nuvolari Lenard, while the interiors are the work of Reymond Langton. The result is a vessel that feels simultaneously like a world-class hotel and something entirely its own. She was named Boat International's Superyacht of the Year 2025. Frankly, that tells you everything.
At 4,918 gross tonnes and 122 metres in length, she accommodates 12 guests across seven cabins — including a master suite that spans two full decks, complete with a private forward deck and jacuzzi. A crew of 37 is on hand to ensure that every detail, every moment, is precisely as it should be.
East Med Yacht Charter: Greece, Türkiye & Beyond
In the Eastern Mediterranean, Kismet comes into her own. Picture anchoring off the caldera at Santorini as the sun drops below the rim of the volcano — or threading through the turquoise bays of the Turkish Aegean, where the crowds never quite reach. A Greece yacht charter aboard a vessel of this scale is a different proposition entirely to anything else on the water. You're not joining the charter circuit; you are the destination.
Türkiye's coastline — the Bodrum Peninsula, the Gulf of Gökova, the bays around Marmaris — offers some of the most dramatic anchorages in the Med, and Kismet's shallow enough draft to get you close to shores that larger vessels simply cannot reach. We've always felt the East Med rewards those who arrive in style, and nothing commands attention quite like 122 metres of Lürssen steel gliding into harbour.
West Med Yacht Charter: Italy, France & the Balearics
Head west and the options are equally compelling. A West Med gulet cruise — though "gulet" hardly does Kismet justice — might take you along the Amalfi Coast, where the clifftop villages cascade into improbably blue water, or north to the Ligurian Riviera and the superyacht heartland of Portofino and Saint-Tropez. The Balearics in August are, honestly, magnificent — Formentera's beaches rival anything in the Caribbean, and Ibiza at sunset from a private deck is a memory that stays with you.
Croatia yacht charter is another possibility for those wanting the Adriatic's extraordinary blend of Venetian architecture, island-hopping, and waters so clear you can see the seabed from the deck. Dubrovnik, Hvar, the Kornati archipelago — it's a cruising ground that rewards exploration, and Kismet gives you the freedom to explore it on your own terms.
What Life Looks Like Aboard
Beyond the sheer scale of the yacht, what makes Kismet exceptional is the breadth of what she offers. A dedicated wellness and beauty spa. An outdoor cinema alongside a full Nemo cinema indoors. A proper DJ station, dancefloor, and four bars — including a wine cellar with a private tasting room. A commercial helipad rated for the EC155. The toys list, as you might imagine, is extraordinary.
This is a yacht that works as hard as you want it to — or doesn't, if sundowner cocktails and doing absolutely nothing is more your pace. The 37-strong crew exists to calibrate everything to your preferences, quietly and without fuss. That's the difference between a good charter and an extraordinary one.
A Rare Window — Act Quickly
Windows like this don't stay open long. Kismet's August and September availability across the East and West Med is a direct result of a cancellation, which means a yacht that is otherwise fully booked is suddenly, briefly, yours to consider. This is the kind of luxury yacht charter opportunity our team sees perhaps once or twice a season — if that. Get in touch with us directly and we'll handle everything from there.
