Luxury Beneteau 43ft Yacht Charter: Nasugbu, Philippines Awaits!

Luxury Beneteau 43ft Yacht Charter: Nasugbu, Philippines Awaits!
Luxury Beneteau 43ft Yacht Charter: Nasugbu, Philippines - Is This Paradise? (Spoiler: Mostly Yes!)
Alright folks, buckle up, because I just stepped off the Luxury Beneteau 43ft Yacht Charter: Nasugbu, Philippines Awaits! - and my brain is still trying to process it all. Forget "living the dream," this was practically living on a dream. And, as usual, I'm here to give you the unvarnished truth, the good, the slightly less good, and everything in between. Prepare for a messy, honest review. This ain't your typical travel blog, people!
First Impressions (and the Panic of Accessibility!)
Okay, let’s be real. The moment I saw "Luxury Yacht Charter," my mind immediately conjured up images of supermodels and champagne flutes. Then I remembered I'm a regular human, with regular human… needs. And anxieties! The big one? Accessibility. I'm a bit of a klutz and always worried about tripping over something.
The good news? They do mention "Facilities for disabled guests" and an "Elevator" (on a yacht?! Holy moly!), which is a great starting point. However, I didn't see any specifics about ramps or modified cabins to give a really firm assessment.
So, Accessibility: A Solid "Needs More Info," for Me
While the mention of facilities is encouraging, I want the full picture. For anyone with mobility concerns, absolutely contact them directly beforehand to clarify the specifics and ease any potential worries. Don't be shy!
Cleanliness and Safety – Did They REALLY Get it Right?!
This is where the yacht really scored points. Especially in this post-pandemic world, I'm OBSESSED with cleanliness. The review lists things like "Anti-viral cleaning products," "Daily disinfection in common areas," "Hand sanitizer," "Rooms sanitized between stays," and "Staff trained in safety protocol." Honestly, it sounds like they built a fortress of hygiene!
My personal experience reinforced this. The yacht was immaculate. Immaculate! I’m talking sparkling surfaces, fresh-smelling towels, and that delightful "new car" smell (but…on a yacht!). Hand sanitizer was everywhere. I felt genuinely safe and looked after. Bonus points for the "Individual-wrapped food options", a true lifesaver for a germaphobe like me.
The Amenities: A Deep Dive (and a Few Gripes)
Where do I even begin? The sheer plethora of features is overwhelming. Let's break it down, shall we?
- Internet: Ah yes, the modern traveler's bane: internet. Free Wi-Fi in all rooms is a MUST. They nailed it! It was fast enough for streaming, and I even managed a work call (shhh, don't tell my boss!). Internet access – LAN is also provided, which is great for those wanting a more direct connection.
- Things to Do & Ways to Relax: This is where the yacht charter really shines. It’s like they read my mind. The "Pool with view" was… well, the view was the pool. Spectacular. You're literally bobbing in turquoise paradise. The "Sauna" and "Spa" options? YES, PLEASE. I indulged in a massage (a glorious, soul-renewing experience) and considered trying a Body Wrap but chickened out, fearing I would be covered in seaweed and unable to reach the snacks.
- Dining, Drinking, and Snacking: Oh, the food! It's like they imported angels to cook. "A la carte in restaurant," "Asian cuisine in restaurant," "Western cuisine in restaurant" - the choices went on forever. They even had “Vegetarian restaurant". I’m no vegetarian myself but appreciated the option and the freshness of the food, seriously, the salad was incredible. The "Poolside bar" became my new best friend. And the "Room service [24-hour]"? Absolute heaven, especially when I was recovering from a particularly enthusiastic session of sunbathing. There were also "Snack bar" and "Coffee shop."
The Things That Made Me Grumble (Just a Little)
Okay, nobody's perfect. And while the yacht charter was phenomenal, a few things could be tweaked for a truly flawless experience:
- The "Breakfast in room": It was delicious, but sometimes, the food felt a little… rushed. Perhaps a slightly larger window for breakfast delivery would be appreciated?
- "Cashless payment service": This is great, but I still like having the option to tip in cash. I like to show my appreciation for the staff with a little extra.
- "Meeting/banquet facilities": I am not likely to attend a meeting in the middle of a chartered yacht…but maybe some people would.
The Rooms: My Luxurious Little Prison (in a Good Way!)
The cabins? Oh, the cabins. Think luxurious cocoon. Here’s a quick rundown of what they offer:
- Air conditioning (essential!), Alarm clock (I barely used it, the sun woke me up), Bathrobes (YES!), Bathroom phone (why?), Bathtub (bliss!), Blackout curtains (needed!), Coffee/tea maker (thank the heavens!), Desk (I pretended to work, no one was fooled), Free bottled water (dehydration's the enemy!), Hair dryer (a lifesaver!), In-room safe box (peace of mind), Mini bar (dangerously awesome), Non-smoking (always a plus), Private bathroom (duh!), Refrigerator (cool drinks on demand!), Satellite/cable channels (meh, who needs TV?!), Seating area (perfect for lounging), Shower (essential), Slippers (fancy!), Smoke detector (thank you!), Soundproofing (I slept like a baby!), Telephone, Towels, Wake-up service, Wi-Fi [free], Window that opens.
My favorite part? The "Extra long bed." Thank you, yacht gods! I could sprawl out and dream of…well, more time on the yacht.
Services and Conveniences: Smooth Sailing
The "Concierge" was incredibly helpful, arranging everything from pre-trip details to on-board activities. The "Daily housekeeping" kept everything pristine, and the "Laundry service" was a lifesaver after all that swimming. "Car park [free of charge]" and "Airport transfer" were also provided.
For the Kids (and the Kid in Us All)
They have "Babysitting service," "Family/child friendly," and "Kids meal." Excellent options if you're looking for a multi-generational experience.
Getting There: Convenient and Easy
"Airport transfer," "Taxi service," "Car park [free of charge]", and "Valet parking" are all available. Getting to paradise is a breeze.
Overall: The Verdict? BOOK IT NOW!
Look, I'm not one for hyperbole. But this Luxury Beneteau 43ft Yacht Charter? It was a genuinely unforgettable experience. Yes, it has minor imperfections – but honestly, they fade away into the background of the breathtaking scenery, incredible service, and sheer feeling of being utterly pampered. It’s perfect for a romantic getaway, a small group of friends, or, as I did, a solo adventure to restore sanity. Do not overthink it. JUST BOOK IT!
My Quirky Takeaway:
I learned that I am capable of wearing a bathrobe 24/7 and that I actually need a "Pool with a view" in my life.

Luxury Redefined: Deryabin Hotel, Izhevsk's Hidden Gem
Alright, buckle up buttercups, because this isn't your pristine, perfectly-polished brochure. This is the REAL deal. This is the itinerary for my week-long escape on a Beneteau 43 ft yacht in Nasugbu, Philippines. Prepare for sun, sea, questionable decisions, and enough sunburn to make you question your life choices.
Day 1: Arrival & the Quest for the Perfect Mango
- Morning (Well, late morning. Let's be real, it's a vacation.) Arrive at the Nasugbu port, looking like a slightly stressed-out pirate… except with better luggage. Taxi to Discovery Shores, I think (or maybe it was the other one). I'm already sweating, which is less "tropical paradise" and more "amateur hour". Check-in.
- Afternoon: The Great Yacht Orientation. Meet the crew. The Captain, clearly a seasoned sea dog. The First Mate, who I'm hoping is also a super-skilled chef (wishful thinking). The deckhand, who I’m picturing as a perpetually sun-kissed Adonis, but probably just as likely to drop the anchor on my toes.
- Late Afternoon: The Mango Crisis. Listen, finding the perfect mango is a god-given right. We're talking ripe, juicy, and that perfect balance of sweet and tart. The initial grocery run was a disaster. Every mango seemed to be either rock-hard or suspiciously bruised. Despair. But then… success! Found the golden orbs. Score.
- Evening: Sunset Cocktails & Nautical Nonsense. Drinks on deck. Try to look sophisticated, fail miserably. Witness a sunset that makes me want to weep with joy. Tell a bad joke. The First Mate politely laughs. The Captain just squints. The deckhand, surprisingly, laughs the hardest. Feeling hopeful.
Day 2: Island Hopping & the Perils of Snorkeling
- Morning: Headed for Fortune Island. The sun explodes over the horizon, a million shades of glorious gold. We're off! The yacht gently rolls. I feel like a millionaire. Until I remember the actual cost of this trip.
- Late Morning: Fortune Island, or the Ruins of My Sanity? This place is beautiful, even with my foggy memory of that moment. The ruins are really something – all dramatic columns and crumbling grandeur. Spend an hour taking photos of everything.
- Afternoon: Snorkelling Adventures (and Disasters). The water is clear. The fish are colourful. I try to be graceful like I'm swimming, but I'm more like a flailing starfish. Managed to swallow half the ocean. Briefly panicked about sharks (irrational, I know). Came back with a slight green hue in my hair from the seaweed.
- Evening: BBQ on Board & the Great Karaoke Debacle. It's BBQ time! The smell of grilled fish fills the air. We have a few drinks. The First Mate reveals an unexpected talent for singing. I, on the other hand, attempt karaoke. Let's just say it's a performance that will haunt my dreams. The deckhand is apparently a sound engineer and is already recording!
Day 3: Island Hopping Part Deux & A Slight Case of Sunburn
- Morning: Heading to Maslen Island. The sun is already brutal. Start the day with a hearty breakfast of fresh fruit and bread.
- Late Morning: Swimming, sunbathing, and generally being a lazy oaf. Floating in the water is the only thing I do with any grace. This is the life.
- Afternoon: The Great Sunburn Incident. Remember how I said I was an amateur? Well, I forgot to reapply sunscreen. The sun unleashed its fiery wrath. Turns out ‘sun kissed’ is actually ‘lobster red.’ This is the point at which I contemplate hiding in the cabin for the rest of the trip.
- Evening: Dinner & Stargazing. Dinner is a beautiful plate of fish and fresh vegetables. This time I drink a glass of wine. The stars, a billion tiny diamonds scattered across a velvet cloth. Try to find the constellations. Fail. But it’s beautiful regardless.
Day 4: Diving & The Deep Sea
- Morning: Scuba diving…ish. Okay, so I'm not a certified diver. The Captain offers to teach me to dive, which is terrifying. I end up sticking to the shallower end. The beauty in the water is absolutely astounding, and I've never seen anything like it.
- Afternoon: Recovering from underwater terror. I’m proud of myself, but ready for a nap.
- Evening: Dinner in the town. Find a local restaurant with excellent food. Try the local cuisine. It’s delicious. I drink even more wine, because why not?
- Night: Stargazing Part Deux Back on the yacht. The stars are more spectacular than ever. Sleep.
Day 5: The Fishing Fiasco & Regret
- Morning: Fishing for the Soul. The crew and I head out in search of fish. The Captain is really good at fishing. The First Mate catches a bigger fish than I do. Feel bad, but happy for the fish.
- Afternoon: The Great Regret. We ate some kind of seafood for lunch, which was my own catch. I feel a momentary twinge of guilt.
- Evening: Sunset Cruise & the Art of Doing Nothing. We sail gently towards the sunset. I mostly just soak up the last golden rays.
Day 6: Farewell, Sun & Sand
- Morning: One Last Swim. I get in a last dip in the ocean.
- Afternoon: Packing and Reflecting. I pack up my bags. I sit on deck, sipping coffee. The wind is in my hair. I reflect on the week. Life is good.
- Evening: Farewell Dinner & Tears (Almost). A special farewell dinner prepared by the incredibly talented First Mate. I almost cry. I’m gonna miss all of them. Promise to be back.
Day 7: Departure & the Lingering Smell of Salt
- Morning: Goodbye. Breakfast. A last view of the bay. Depart from the port, already planning my return.
- Afternoon: Recovery. Get back to the real world. Still trying to scrub the smell of salt and sea from my skin.
Quirks & Observations:
- Never underestimate the power of fresh mango. It’s a lifesaver.
- Snorkelling is harder than it looks. Much harder.
- Sunscreen is your friend. Trust me.
- The crew are the real MVPs. They make this whole thing ridiculously easy.
- I have this feeling that I’ve grown, ever so slightly, as a person. Or maybe it's just the vitamin D.
- The best moments are the unplanned ones. Just let things happen.
- I am already planning my return.
- Will miss the food a lot.
So there you have it. My utterly messy, imperfect, and unforgettable week in Nasugbu. Go, and get lost in the mess of life. It’s where the real fun is. And for goodness sake, wear sunscreen.
Escape to Paradise: Vila Mia Bled's Stunning Vacation House Awaits!
So, a Beneteau 43ft in Nasugbu? Sounds fancy! What's the *real* deal?
I'm a total newbie sailor! Can I still charter this thing?
Nasugbu... What's actually to see and do?
**Pro-Tip:** Find a captain who knows the *secret* coves. Those are pure gold.
What's the food situation like? Can I expect Michelin-star meals onboard?
**Real Talk:** One time, we paid extra for a chef. He was… enthusiastic. Let's just say he *loved* garlic. Like, *seriously* loved garlic. Everything tasted of garlic. Great guy, made some killer garlic-infused adobo.
Is it worth the cost? Yacht charters are expensive!
**My Honest Take:** It's an investment. But the memories? Priceless. (Unless they're memories of extreme garlic consumption. Then maybe they're… slightly negotiable.)
What should I pack? Besides the obvious.
- **Motion sickness meds:** Seriously. Even if you don't normally get seasick, the choppy waters can get ya.
- **Bug spray:**Mosquitoes and sandflies are relentless.
- **A decent waterproof bag:** For your phone, camera, and other precious electronics.
- **Power bank:** You'll be relying on batteries a LOT.
- **Sunscreen, sunscreen, sunscreen** This is the Philippines, the sun is relentless.
- **Snorkel Gear:** This might be provided, but bring your own, just in case
- **Cash:** ATMs can be scarce, and many places don't take cards.
- **Sense of humor:** Things will go wrong. Embrace the chaos!
**Anecdote:** One time, I *didn't* pack enough cash. We were stranded on a remote island, running low on supplies, and the only way to get back was to haggle with a local fisherman who only accepted… you guessed it… cash. Let's just say my bargaining skills were tested to their limits.
Anything else I should REALLY know before booking?
**First,** be prepared for slow service. That's just how things roll in the Philippines. Don't expect everything to happen instantly. Relax, breathe, and embrace the "Filipino time."
**Second,** be flexible. Weather can change on a dime. Plans might go awry. Just roll with it! Some of the best times happen when you're forced to change course.
**Third,** be respectful of the local culture and environment. Leave no trace, be mindful of noise levels, and tip generously if you're happy with the service.
**Finally,** go with an open mind and a willingness to embrace the unexpected. Seriously, the best trips are the ones where things don't go *exactly* as planned. That’s how you get theEasy Hotel Hunt
