How it works

There are two ways to book a family holiday on a boat. One is in the "Bareboat"and another in "Crewedmode":

 

Bareboat mode navigation:

The modality "Bareboat (boat only + optional skipper) consists of a private sailing or catamaran holiday in which you rent your boat plus individual services, not the organisation of the trip at the destination. The travel arrangements at the destination, with the help of our detailed instructions, must be made by you.

Bareboating is the world's most widespread form of private group sailing, and is recognised as the most economical way to sail in private groups.

 

When chartering pleasure boats in "Bareboat" mode, we agencies are not the direct organisers of the trip, but rather mediators between the final supplier and you.

Even so, we will accompany you by the hand until the end of the journey as if we were you, and we will give you the necessary support throughout the booking process and during the days of travel:

  • We recommend the most convenient boat for your group.
  • We inform the details of all expenditure you are going to have at your destination to avoid surprises.
  • Carry out our own secure payments to the supplier.
  • We design the most suitable route for your group, tailor-made.
  • Agree with the supplier on the equipment of the sailboat or catamaran required.
  • We help you with the organisation of purchases on board.
  • We provide all the detailed written information so as not to have any problems at destination when boarding.
  • Give you 24-hour on-site support by telephone.
  • Try to offer the best price on the market. If you see a lower price, let us know and we will try to match or even better it.

 

 

In addition, we offer you the possibility of sailing in a "flotillanext to our boat. This is very comfortable and fun.

You can see it below.

 

You can see below also the destinations where we offer the Bareboat charter in "Bareboat" mode. We can also arrange for you to charter a boat to any other destination that has a fleet available.

 

Crewed mode navigation:

Yacht charter holidays in "Crewed" mode is different than in "Bareboat" mode. Now you book an organised trip directly with us, not individual services. You should not deal with the local supplier at any time.

In the "Crewed" mode navigation we are responsible for the success of the trip from the beginning to the end, when on the "Bareboat" the final responsibility for the success of the voyage rested with you.

 

Included in the total price of the Crewed mode are some mandatory services, as if it were a package. Unlike the "Bareboat", where everything is separated as individual services.

The final price is higher in the "Crewed" mode than in the "Bareboat" mode. Especially on gulets and some catamarans, where you normally pay a fixed price with all-inclusive.

 

The services we always include in our "Crewed" products are:

  • The complete organisation of the trip with a tailor-made itinerary.
  • Purchasing and loading of supplies on board needed throughout the week.
  • A pattern of our team.
  • Security deposit of the ship in case of damages or losses.
  • Final cleaning of the vessel.
  • Sheets and towels.
  • Inflatable boat with engine.
  • The following will also be eligible half board, sailor, water equipmentamong others.
  • In some cases and on request, the total cost of the trip may also be included in the price: food, moorings and fuel. Although it is not usual.

 

Check out our sailing and catamaran private holidays "Crewed" (all inclusive) to different destinations:

 

We can also organise any journey to the destination of your choice. Just ask us and after checking the fleet at your destination we will make you the best proposal.

family-sailing-vacations

Flotilla navigation

In "Bareboat" mode, you have the option of selecting flotilla navigation, in which you can steer the vessel independently without a skipper, but with the assistance of our team. As the term "flotilla" implies, flotilla sailing involves the operation of multiple vessels simultaneously.

 

Mêlée Travels runs ships in some itineraries that follow the same route every week. These routes have been designed over the years, and after having scoured all the nooks and crannies. You can follow these boats and sail along them.

 

It is great fun to sail and has several advantages over sailing alone:

  • Don't you have to agree on a route with the skipper. Longer, shorter, which places to visit? Only you follow our boat.

 

  • You ensure see the best places of the area.

 

  • You can make small regattas between the boats we sail together, great fun.

 

  • You can ask the skipper of our mother ship any questions you may have. 24h Support.

Sailing with children

A boating holiday with children is a fantastic experience for them, as they not only have fun on board, but also have the possibility to learn a lot of things about the sea and sailing.

Life on board teaches them to share, tolerate, adapt and socialise. In addition to learning the values of the sea. The skipper will be happy to spend the necessary time with you.

 

They are passionate about sailing, and jumping from the highest point of the boat into the water is often their favourite activity. Sharing it as a family is an indelible memory. And it will undoubtedly be the best family holiday you can give them.

 

We have experience sailing with children and we guarantee you the most suitable routes. for them. We adapt the itinerary to the little ones with affordable routes so that they have the best time possible. You can see them below.

It was my first trip and I am looking forward to more. Everything was great
I booked a gulet trip in Turkey through them and everything was wonderful. Very reliable and professional agency 100%. Highly recommended
We are a family of 7 people, we are sailing in Croatia for 7 days this summer 2024.
The trip has been a fantastic experience, combining sailing and discovering wonderful beaches and bays during the day with visits to the cities in the afternoons and evenings (Vis, Hvar, Korcula, Stari Grad, Split and Trogir). All this under the guidance of our wonderful skipper, Pave.
We would like to thank Joan Nogueron, from the Melee Travels Agency, for his organisation, advice and tips to make this trip a success.
Thank you for everything, we will surely repeat in another destination.
I booked a trip to Turkey by gulet with Mêlée Travels and I couldn't be happier. Joan, is super professional, at all times informed me about the trip, route and characteristics of the trip in a very accessible way. Thank you very much for everything, thanks to you it has been an unforgettable trip. A very reliable agency, I will recommend you as much as I can!

The trip itself has been good, for the places we have been able to enjoy and certainly for the company, but we would not repeat with this company, we had chosen precisely this one because of the comments and in our case they have not been adjusted to reality.
- The food was scarce, it had the feeling of being in camps, with a daily pasta menu with very basic preparations, and the breakfasts were also very scarce. Luckily in port we were buying our own bread and pastries to be able to have a good breakfast. We know that the cook who usually does the crossing failed and the new one was not used to these tasks on a ship, but I consider that the passengers should not pay for these inconveniences. The same goes for the mess and lack of cleanliness in the galley. I would like to thank Lucia and Lourdes, two crew members who took charge of the galley and solved a large part of the problem.
- The whole week without air conditioning due to a breakdown. We are in the month of July and it was really oppressive to sleep in port with so much heat at night.
Finally, this is a high value trip and we feel that we should have received better attention from MeleTravels, when we exposed the problems we encountered, they were all just a bunch of baloney without taking any blame.

I have already travelled with Melee Travels to Croatia and Greece. This year it was Sardinia, and everything was great as always: the organisation, the boat, the company, the skipper Joan, and Anita the cook. I'm already thinking about where to go next year!!!!

Costa Smeralda, a dream destination. Joan, the best possible skipper. The fact that we had a cook included is beyond name, it is a quantum leap in comfort. And the quality of the cuisine was spectacular. All this made us spend an unforgettable week and we made a very nice human pineapple. Thank you Joan and Anita!

An experience of ten! It couldn't have gone better... the boat, the company, the skipper... it wasn't the first time I had done this type of trip but it was the first with Mêlée and it was by far the best. Thank you Joan for your patience and I hope to meet again in a new adventure.

A unique, dreamlike experience, sailing through paradisiacal places with turquoise seas, the sea breeze, the sun gilding your face?

With Joan, the experienced skipper at the helm, taking care of your safety and every detail, it is certainly worth repeating again and again.

A thousand thanks!
An experience to repeat. I took a trip with a friend to Ibiza and Formentera and we were more than satisfied. First of all, the professionalism and formality shown by the staff. From the first moment, they informed us of the details of the trip, being totally clear and transparent with the conditions of the trip. Secondly, the skipper of the boat, Joan, has been charming, not only in his work, but also as a person. He has been very friendly and approachable, concerned for the welfare and safety of all crew members. He knows the area where he sails to perfection and always has alternatives for anchoring if the sea conditions are somewhat adverse. All this so that clients can make the most of the experience. Thirdly, the rest of the crew have been a pleasure to work with. We got along very well and created a great atmosphere on board. Finally, the area in which we have sailed and the experiences we have had (such as sunrises, sunsets, dinners on land or activities such as snorkelling or paddle surfing) have made a week seem like two days.
I recommend this company and this captain 100%. I will sail with them again!

Thank you Joan, this experience has been like a dream come true.
In love with the colour of the waters of Ibiza/ Formentera. I think everyone should experience this with Mêlée Travels. It has been a fascinating adventure and hard to match.

We have enjoyed the most beautiful sunrises and sunsets we have ever seen, including a full moon, unforgettable!
Sailing and feeling the wind while watching the sails dance or snorkelling off the most idyllic beaches is a wonder that is hard to describe.
I made the journey with a friend and met some wonderful people when I got there.
It was an excellent trip in all aspects.
Recommended 100%.
Thank you very much for everything Joan, I will repeat for sure!

I highly recommend working with Melee Travels 100%. The boat Joan found for us was a 2022, brand new, beautifully finished, and we had no problems whatsoever during the week. We were very happy to have chosen such a new boat, totally recommendable to enjoy the experience to the fullest and not have any problems during the week. The boat company provider (manager) Michael, was fantastic, he was very helpful throughout the whole trip and was in constant communication with our skipper. He booked us scooters on islands, tables for dinner in restaurants and gave us lots of recommendations of things to do on each island. Our skipper Michael was also fantastic. He gave us lots of recommendations as well, super cautious with the weather and waves and cautious with the boat. The supplier's manager told us he had no idea how we got such a good price for such a new boat! We thank you for all your research Joan! Thank you for everything! We couldn't have done it without you. We had a dream honeymoon.

It has been a dream to be able to see the sunrise in the middle of the sea, to reach deserted coves or islands that can only be reached by boat, the Greek islands are a wonder of nature and we have been able to discover them in the best company. I only hope to be able to repeat soon!

Hi Joan, we loved the boat, it was very well looked after, and the crew was very charming and very attentive to us all the time. The meals were plentiful and delicious, we were treated like kings and it was the best boat we could have been on. It's great that you offer it on your website. Thank you very much for everything.

It was an amazing experience. With the agency and the skipper it was great. He advised us other places to visit, we trusted him and we loved it.

Thank you very much for everything, I'm sure we will repeat the experience 🙂

The experience has been unforgettable. Joan is not only an excellent, professional, friendly and discreet skipper, but he also adapts the trips to the conditions of the passengers. He also offers the possibility of extending the trip, with days before (in our case Athens) and after (in our case Corfu) with very well chosen hotels both in terms of area and quality and price.
We have been 3 couples on the Ionian Islands, and we are delighted !!!!

I had never travelled on a sailing boat before and it was a truly unique experience. The crossing, the atmosphere inside the boat and the organisation of the route made it an unforgettable trip.

Our first time was two summers ago, in the Greek islands, an unforgettable experience, to repeat.
Perfect organisation and management of Joan and her advice.
I did a crossing of the Kornatti islands with Mêlée travels. The sea is calm (ideal for beginners) and with unforgettable sunrises. We were also lucky enough to have Joan as skipper who, in addition to his duties, has the added bonus of a close personal touch and explains key navigation, making the experience more enriching. Totally recommendable and repeatable.
It has been a fantastic experience. We have sailed and enjoyed the islands of Croatia. The children had a great time. We have learned a lot and the patience of Joan, his kindness and ease of treatment, great. I would recommend him to everyone without the slightest doubt. Everything was perfect!
It has been an unforgettable experience, both for the company and for the landscapes and colours seen. I never get tired of looking at the photos because it has been a real visual spectacle.
I look forward to more crossings with you, a pleasure.

Great Experience with the whole team on Board. I spent 1 week some years ago sailing along Croatia Islands coast with Joan and his wife and it was a very nice experience. The boat, the crew, the views, the stories and memories will be with me forever. Thanks to Joan for being our Captain and I deeply encourage new travelers to sail the Sea with Melee Travels. I sure will do it again. Highly recommended.
