We also love the Lagoon 50 and the Lagoon 52F. Both are elegant, comfortable catamarans that are spacious enough to accommodate large groups (i.e., up to 11-12 people), but they can also be your go-tos if you’re a smaller party or couple looking for a yacht charter with more space and comfort on board.
Not sure if chartering a whole yacht is your style? Don’t worry—you can still enjoy Christmas sailing in the Caribbean islands! Another great option for a holiday yacht getaway is a cabin cruise on board a large, luxury catamaran.
