If your dream is to have a place in the sun but you're worried that buying a holiday home will not only be a heavy financial anchor , it will also leave you tied to the same old destination year after year, cast off these worries with the new Club La Costa Yacht Club.

Enter the lifestyle of Roman Abramovich and Richard Branson and get a taste of the ultimate luxury as you step on board your own private  €1 million yacht,  with the crew waiting to cater for your every desire.

OK, with prices starting from just £8000, you don't actually own the yacht  outright- but you do get all the perks of ownerships  without having to worry about  the expense of keeping your floating holiday home shipshape. And this small investment does give you six weeks exclusive use of a double berth cabin , or if  you don't want to share your millionaire lifestyle with strangers, you can use four of your weeks at once and charter the whole yacht, with its four luxurious cabins, for your own exclusive use.

This spring, the elite Club La Costa Yacht Club takes to the water in Palma, when the first two  60 ft luxury €1 million catamarans will sail around the island of Mallorca for its inaugural spring/summer season (from March 17th to October 20th, 2007, inclusive.)

The Club intends to quickly expand its fleet and destinations in the future to include Italy, Turkey and the Aegean.

With the backing of parent company Club La Costa Resorts & Hotels- which this year will celebrate 23 years in the holiday industry - the Yacht Club aims to bring the luxury of sailing holidays within the financial reach of everyone, for considerably less than a similar vacation available from the usual charter operators.

Set to cater for those wishing to experience the ultimate holiday lifestyle of the yachting elite – minus the expense and management that comes with owning your own yacht – this unique style of holiday means guests can relax onboard, soak up the sun and enjoy the high life while the crew takes care of everything else, from serving breakfast to mixing mojitos at sunset, or from arranging excursions to scuba diving lessons along with a variety of other water sports.

Roy Peires, Founder and Chairman of Club La Costa Resorts & Hotels says, “The Club La Costa Yacht Club is for those who want a luxurious lifestyle holiday, from company directors looking for a novel way of rewarding staff or impressing key clients and customers, to all of us who would love the luxury of a private sailing holiday without having to sink vast sums of money into buying, and maintaining, our own yacht.

Club La Costa Yacht Club guests will experience five star comfort aboard the Eleuthera 60 catamarans, and the yachts are custom-fitted by top La Rochelle-based French cruising catamaran builders Fountaine-Pajot.  Designed by Berret Recoupeau, the Eleuthera 60 is renowned for its luxury and stability, and is the perfect vessel for seasoned sailors or holidaymakers who may have limited sailing experience but who yearn for a unique yachting holiday.

Roy Peires adds, “We are confident that our fleet of luxurious catamarans and our sailing routes - which will offer cruises around some of the most beautiful yachting destinations in Europe and beyond - will appeal to those looking for that wow factor from their annual vacation. Initial response from our existing Club La Costa members has been so enthusiastic that our first season is already almost fully-booked.

“The extensive range of facilities and leisure options, the Club La Costa Yacht Club offers, both on and off shore, have been designed to make this a memorable holiday. From a fully equipped galley with well stocked bar, members will have their sailing holiday tailored to suit their specific requirements.  We have equipment on board for fishing and scuba diving, snorkeling, sea kayaking, dinghy sailing and windsurfing and, of course, island hopping and shopping, wining and dining onshore are included in the itinerary.”

On board, saloons and cabins are air-conditioned and finished with wood panelled walls and parquet-style flooring and all four cabins have en-suite facilities including freshwater showers. The interior has a 6ft 3in headroom and more in some areas, while the extended coach roof which protects the saloon from the heat and glare of the sun allows an extremely comfortable environment to relax and share your experiences of the day with friends and family, from the moment you wake up to the smell of freshly brewed coffee, to an after-dinner nightcap under the stars before bed. The custom-fitted catamarans will sail around Mallorca, dropping anchor in secluded bays and picturesque beaches for lunch along the way and guests will even have time for a bit of boutique shopping and historic sightseeing in Palma during their holiday.


For those who want to sail off into the sunset on a regular basis,  membership of the Club La Costa Yacht Club is available from £8,000 and is extremely flexible -  members can have their own exclusive chartered yacht and use four of their weeks to reserve all four guest cabins on board the luxury catamaran, use eight weeks and have a private two yacht flotilla at their command, or any other permutation that suits.
