We are yacht charter professionals with 15+ years’ experience in the industry managing an exclusive fleet of selected yachts in Croatia. As well as our central fleet, we also recommend and book a wide variety of yachts to suit every desire and create tailor-made experiences for our clients. With years of experience in the industry, we have built a network of yachts which we have personally inspected and who we trust to deliver an excellent experience to our clients.
About Us
Hello!
Welcome to Otium Yachts
We share a passion for sailing
Why us
For more than a decade, we have been living and breathing sailing holidays in Croatia, delivering luxury travel experiences to discerning travellers. Our team is composed of experienced professionals who are passionate about delivering the highest level of service and trust. Our focus is on tailor-made holidays, aboard our handpicked yachts, tailored to meet the individual needs of our clients.
We understand the region intimately, from the perfect secluded bay to the best restaurants and nightlife, and everything in between. We cooperate only with those who have proven the quality of their service. We also know our yachts and crew personally, so we can make recommendations that fit the style and expectations of our guests.
Each gulet, sailing yacht, motor-sailer, and luxury yacht is custom-built and, in most cases, family-run.. This is important to us as it means the yacht owners and captains are passionate about what they do, and this is reflected in the level of service and experience they give their guests – unique, genuine, memorable.
Our commitment to our partners and clients is unwavering. Over the years, we have built a strong reputation for reliability and trustworthiness. At the heart of our business is the commitment to integrity, trust, and the guest experience. We strive to provide the highest standards of excellence from beginning to end, to ensure every guest has a seamless and unforgettable sailing holiday.
What we believe in
Our Philosophy
Our philosophy at Otium Yachts is rooted in the Latin term, Otium, which speaks to the concept of withdrawing from one’s daily life to eat, play, and rest…
Now, imagine yourself holidaying on a yacht, surrounded by crystalline waters and vivid sunsets guaranteed to inspire. Or picture yourself enjoying delicious cuisine prepared by your own private chef, lounging in the sun, or exploring quaint coastal towns.
At Otium yachts, we strive to provide our guests with exactly this – a chance to escape the everyday and experience deep relaxation, meaningful connections, and authentic moments that replenish the mind, body, and soul.
We are passionate about creating these unique experiences for our guests. Step aboard and leave the rest to us – we’ll take care of the details while you relax and recharge.
We are here for you
