CHANTELLA

Motor Yacht CHANTELLA is a rare and elegant example of a true gentleman’s yacht, offering timeless style combined with modern comfort on the French Riviera. Based in Cannes and available for charter along the Côte d’Azur, CHANTELLA delivers a refined yachting experience that appeals to guests who appreciate classic craftsmanship, attentive service, and relaxed Mediterranean cruising.

Built in 1966, CHANTELLA is distinguished by her beautifully preserved mahogany hull and graceful lines, embodying the golden era of yachting. While her exterior reflects a classic heritage, she has benefited from continuous investment and meticulous refit work over the years. The current owner has ensured the yacht meets contemporary expectations, installing brand-new, efficient engines for improved performance and reliability, as well as zero-speed stabilizers that significantly enhance comfort both underway and at anchor. Her hull and paintwork are maintained to a high standard, allowing CHANTELLA to present immaculately wherever she cruises.

The interior has been thoughtfully updated to balance modern luxury with traditional charm. New wood paneling, ceilings, carpets, and soft furnishings create a warm, inviting atmosphere, while respecting the yacht’s classic character. Rich tones, elegant finishes, and a timeless layout make the interior feel both sophisticated and comfortable—ideal for extended charters or relaxed family cruising.

CHANTELLA accommodates up to eight guests across four well-appointed cabins, making her particularly well suited to families. The layout includes three double cabins and one cabin fitted with two single bunk beds, suitable for children or adults alike. Each cabin offers a cozy retreat with tasteful décor and practical storage, ensuring guests feel at home throughout their stay.

The main salon is a welcoming social hub, featuring a dining table that comfortably seats up to ten guests, a lounge area for relaxing, and a bar—perfect for evening aperitifs or casual gatherings after a day on the water. Large windows allow natural light to flood the space, enhancing the sense of openness and connection to the sea.

Outdoor living is a highlight on board CHANTELLA. The aft deck offers a relaxed dining setting with seating for eight guests, complemented by additional seating at the stern, ideal for enjoying the Riviera views while cruising or at anchor. Above, the expansive sundeck provides exceptional versatility, with generous space for sunbathing, hosting events, or enjoying a BBQ. A large dining table seats up to ten guests, while a bimini shade offers welcome protection from the Mediterranean sun.

Captain Tristan, who has been part of CHANTELLA’s crew for six years—having previously served as a deckhand—recommends spending time on the foredeck, just ahead of the bridge. While cruising, guests can relax on large cushions and enjoy uninterrupted views. At anchor, the foredeck opens up to become an additional spacious area for lounging and socializing, offering yet another private escape on board.

A dedicated crew of four delivers attentive, discreet service throughout the charter, ensuring every detail is handled with care. With her classic elegance, modern upgrades, and welcoming atmosphere, CHANTELLA offers an authentic and memorable yachting experience on the French Riviera—perfect for guests seeking timeless style and genuine hospitality.
