Why a yacht in Bali
A yacht is the most private venue for an event: the ocean is all around, there are no witnesses, and the sunset is right on course. A wedding for two, a proposal, a party or a birthday on board. Crew, fuel, and insurance are included in the rental.
The fleet ranges from motorboats to premium sailing yachts. Routes: sunset coastal cruise (3 hours), daytime cruise to Nusa Penida (6-8 hours), multi-day cruise to the Gili Islands (2-3 days). Drone, DJ, and catering are optional.
What is included
- Yacht selection according to the number of guests: motorboat, motor yacht, sailing yacht, catamaran
- Crew: captain, deckhand
- Fuel within the route limits
- Passenger insurance and life jackets
- On-board decor: flowers, LED candles, table setting
- Catering: snacks, bar, cake
- DJ, drone, photographer — optional
How the price is calculated
The cost consists of five main categories: location, decor, catering, shooting, and coordination. Each category is transparent, showing the price and details. No asterisks or hidden fees. What is in the estimate is what is in the invoice.
Three factors affect the final cost: season (green season is 20-30% cheaper), number of guests (each guest adds $50-90 to food/drinks), and program intensity (show, drone, second photographer). We calculate the estimate in 1 day after a 15-minute briefing.
What affects the cost
- Season: dry season (April–October) — more expensive, green season (November–March) — 20-30% cheaper
- Number of guests: each guest adds $50-90 to food/drinks + $8-25 to table setting
- Location: beach — from $0, villa — from $400/night, cliff — from $600, resort — from $1,500
- Day of the week: weekdays — 10-15% venue discounts
- Urgency: less than 7 days — +30% to the budget
How to save money
- Green season — lower prices for venues and accommodation
- Weekday instead of weekend — venue discounts
- Reduce decor to accents instead of everywhere
- Video teaser instead of a full movie
- Fewer guests — the main factor in the estimate
