A yacht charter in Marbella costs between 1,815€ and 6,929€ for a four-hour trip, and between 3,025€ and 9,075€ for a full eight-hour day — always per boat, never per person, with VAT included. The entry price of 1,815€ covers a 15-metre motor yacht such as the Prestige 50 "La Brisa" for up to 12 guests, while 9,075€ buys a full day aboard the 31-metre Antago 90 "Venus" with two jet skis and an inflatable water slide. Every charter departs from Puerto Banús with captain, crew, catering, drinks and water toys already included. Here is what you will pay in 2026 — and what you get for it.
Yacht Charter Prices in Puerto Banús
If you are comparing boat rental prices in Puerto Banús, these are the current rates for our fleet. Every yacht carries up to 12 guests:
All prices are per boat, not per person, and VAT is included. That one detail changes the whole equation: a figure that sounds high at first becomes remarkably reasonable once you divide it among your group.
What's Included in the Price
Many operators quote a bare boat rate and add crew, fuel and food later. Our prices include everything you need for a complete day at sea:
There are no hidden fees: the price you are quoted is the final price.
What Affects Yacht Charter Cost in Marbella?
Four factors determine how much it costs to rent a yacht in Marbella:
Yacht size and category. A 15-metre yacht like La Brisa and a 31-metre superyacht like Venus offer very different experiences — more deck space, more cabins, more crew and more water toys as you move up the fleet. All of them carry the same 12 guests, so a bigger yacht doesn't mean more people; it means more luxury per person.
Duration. The 4-hour morning or afternoon charter is the most popular format. The 8-hour full day always costs significantly less than two half-days — La Brisa's full day at 3,025€ saves over 600€ compared with booking four hours twice — and it unlocks extras such as the inflatable water slide on Venus and the inflatable pool on Nina, which are reserved for full-day charters.
Season. July and August are the peak months in Puerto Banús, and the most popular yachts sell out weeks in advance. With around 320 days of sunshine a year on the Costa del Sol, May, June, September and October deliver the same experience with better availability — see our guide to the best time to charter on the Costa del Sol.
Extra guests. The Mangusta 80 "Nina" can bring up to 8 additional guests out by dinghy at 121€ per person — a useful option for larger celebrations.
What Does That Cost Per Person?
Because pricing is per boat, the per-person maths is what matters. Take the entry level: La Brisa at 1,815€ for four hours, shared between 12 guests, works out at just over 151€ per person — for a private yacht with captain, crew, catering, drinks and a jet ski. A full day on a Mangusta 80 at 7,865€ is roughly 655€ per person for twelve guests aboard a genuine 27-metre superyacht. Even the flagship Venus at 9,075€ for eight hours comes to about 756€ each — with four cabins, a crew of four and the biggest water-toy collection in the fleet.
Yacht Charter vs Beach Club or Restaurant
Put those numbers next to Marbella's other luxury plans. A full day at a top beach club on the Golden Mile — sunbeds, lunch and bottles — can easily rival the per-person cost of a shared charter, and a long dinner at one of Puerto Banús's fine-dining restaurants is not far behind. The difference is what you actually get: instead of a crowded venue, you have a private yacht, your own crew, swimming stops in quiet coves between Cabopino and Estepona, and the view of La Concha mountain from the water. For birthdays, hen and stag parties or corporate events, few experiences on the Costa del Sol deliver more per euro.
