Inclusions vary by yacht, so the smartest approach is to separate private-use basics, hospitality, activities and optional extras.
The answer
A Maldives yacht charter quote should make clear what is included, what is available on request and what creates an additional cost.
Azalea JournalThe finest journeys begin long before the anchor is raised.
Why Azalea
Your yacht is your private sanctuary, with space to relax and reconnect away from resort schedules.
Reach remote islands, hidden lagoons and marine-rich atolls that resort-based travel simply can't.
Tailored itineraries, personal service and unforgettable moments built around your group.
Five-star comfort, exquisite cuisine and an exceptional crew, at sea.
The foundation is exclusive use of the yacht for the agreed dates, with crew, cabins and shared guest spaces reserved for your group. For Azalea, this private-use model is central to the experience: one group, one route and one crew rhythm.
Private chef service, hosted meals and flexible dining times are often a major reason to choose a yacht. Confirm beverages, premium requests and special menus in advance.
Airport transfers, tender use, snorkelling support, water sports and dive Dhoni operations may be included or packaged differently depending on the charter.

Best time to go
Dec – Apr
The Northeast Monsoon brings calmer seas, lower rainfall and the clearest underwater visibility of the year.
May – Nov
The Southwest Monsoon brings short showers, lush island greenery, fewer crowds and better value for longer charters.
Mid-Dec – Feb
Festive-period and February travel bring the highest demand for cabins, so these dates are the first to book out each year.
May – Nov
Plankton blooms draw manta rays and whale sharks to Baa and Ari Atoll, making this the strongest window for marine-life encounters.

Planning tips
A little planning goes a long way in ensuring an extraordinary experience. Here are our top tips for your charter.
Read our tipsPick a route around what matters most to your group — diving, sandbanks, family comfort or a quiet private escape — and let the crew shape the days around it.
From manta encounters to sunset sandbank dinners, tell the team what you're hoping to see and do so it can be built into the route.
Light, breathable layers, reef-safe sunscreen and swimwear cover most days — the crew can advise on anything specific to your route.
Transfers, permits, dining preferences and daily timing are handled onboard, so the only decision left is what to do next.
Common questions
Meals are commonly included in private charter packages, but guests should confirm menus, beverages and premium requests before booking.
