Written by Rachael Steele

For the fifth season of hit TV series Below Deck , the luxury yacht was bigger and more luxurious than ever before: 56.2m/184.5ft motor yacht THE WELLESLEY was named THE WELLINGTON on the show, and here is the tour through her cabins and cigar room right up to the sundeck – almost as good as being there yourself!

The Interiors

Built in 1993 by Oceanco , she received and extensive refit in 2016 that refreshed her appearance inside and out. Luxurious marbles are used across the decks, accompanied by plush leather furnishings and impeccable joinery in a range of high quality wood varieties.

The formal dining room is separate from the main salon for a more intimate dining experience between guests. A high-glass circular table sits in the centre of the room and the seating arrangement can be altered for up to 12 guests.

Main deck formal dining setting

The inviting main salon is one of the first areas guests and visitors will encounter: Velvet sofas and armchairs form a cosy conversation area at the centre of the room, surrounded by mahogany panelling and top notch technology for entertaining day or night. Lighting plays an important part in the ambiance, and in addition to the numerous ceiling spotlights there are table lamps that fit seamlessly with the art deco-inspired surroundings.

What would be the skylounge aboard most vessels is the cigar room aboard this superyacht! Situated on the upper deck aft, famous cigar smokers of the past century adorn the walls of this distinctive gentleman’s lounge. An entire wall cabinet is dedicated to vintage cigars and a choice whiskeys accompanied by crystal glasses. Overstuffed leather armchairs are placed in the centre of the room and the widescreen TV for the latest sports and a large library of films. A desk in the corner lets the room be used as an office by charter guests who need to keep an eye on business matters.

The Exteriors

The main deck aft is unusual in providing a raised aft area extensively furnished with sofas, armchairs and drinks tables for outdoor relaxation in the sunshine or shade. Steps lead down to the grand alfresco dining area, and a staircase leads to the lower deck and the beach club in the stern.

Working out on the aft deck

The upper deck aft is fitted with a massive sunbathing area along the stern that can be covered by a bimini shade for use throughout the day. Farther forward, the seating arrangement provides comfort and great views as guests unwind with drinks and savour the fresh air.

Personalised massage on board

Those looking for the Jacuzzi will find it on the sundeck forward, surrounded by plush sunpads on both sides. Guests can soak up the sunshine on the sun loungers along the stern too, while the expert chef prepares a delectable lunch and cocktails are served from the wet bar.

The Accommodation

The accommodation is placed across the decks, with a Master suite on the upper deck benefiting from elevated views. White panelling and mahogany woods add to the sense of space and elegance with a simple and clean appearance. The room has an abundance of space for a king-sized bed and a lounge in front of a massive widescreen TV, and the en-suite bathroom is just as opulent with marble floors and wall panels.

Guest cabin

The twin cabin aft of the Master suite is the only cabin on board not to have its own sofa, although it does have large plush beds and its own en-suite.

Since the 2016 refit, the main deck forward has changed from an observation room to become the second VIP suite. Here the occupants have a gorgeous light-filled space thanks to the skylight panels arranged in a semi-circular formation, and at night these can be left open for stargazing or covered for complete privacy.

Master suite

The lower deck has the original VIP stateroom amidships and this highly desirable cabin is more the equivalent of a second Master suite: The full beam affords an abundance of space with a king-sized bed at its centre, a wall-mounted widescreen TV, a lounge to starboard and a desk to port. The en-suite bathroom has a bathtub in addition to a shower, and it connects through to the walk-in-wardrobe, which in turn leads back into the bedroom.

A double and twin en-suite cabin are also placed on this deck and both provide a generous amount of space with a sofa and widescreen TV for relaxing in comfort at the end of a busy day.

Additional Benefits

The collection of water toys onboard is vast, encompassing everything from high-speed jet skis and Seabobs aboard this Approved RYA Water Sports Centre, to Scuba diving equipment and inflatable and towable toys. The water slide will be a hit with guests of all ages, and when the group wants to stay on board there is a range of gym equipment including yoga mats for exercise, fresh air and panoramic views.

Transom beach club with tender

Among the crew there are trained jet ski instructors and a professional massage therapist, so guests can spend the morning learning how to use the water toys and exploring along the coast before returning to a delectable lunch and an afternoon of sunbathing and treatments.

Superyacht THE WELLESLEY is available for charter to make your holiday, honeymoon, corporate charter or other special occasion one to remember.

Yacht size and features : Larger yachts with more amenities typically command higher prices. For example, the Sirocco from Below Deck Mediterranean is valued at over $18.5 million.

Season : High season (usually during the summer months) is generally more expensive than low season, as there's more demand for yacht charters during this time.

Duration : Charter prices are typically provided as a weekly rate, so the longer you plan to spend on the yacht, the higher the cost will be.

Destination : Popular cruising grounds like the Mediterranean can be pricier due to increased demand.

Crew size and experience : A larger, more experienced crew may require higher wages, which could affect the overall cost.

When planning to charter a yacht featured in the Below Deck TV show, it's important to keep in mind the variations in costs depending on the duration of your charter. In this section, we'll be covering the most common charter durations: one week, three days, and 10 days.

The prices mentioned above are just examples and can vary depending on various factors. To ensure you get the best experience at the right price, always consult with a reputable charter broker or the yacht's management company when planning your Below Deck-inspired vacation.

While the base cost of chartering a yacht on Below Deck might seem like the biggest expense, there are additional expenses that come with chartering a yacht. This section will break down a few key additional costs, including crew gratuity, provisioning costs, fuel, and dockage fees.

Crew gratuity is around 15–20% of the charter cost

The hard-working crew on Below Deck is an essential part of your luxury yacht experience. As a token of appreciation for their service, it's customary to provide a gratuity at the end of your charter. Crew gratuities are usually around 15–20% of the charter cost. Be sure to factor this into your budget when planning your yacht vacation.

Provisioning costs are around 20–30% of the charter cost

Provisioning covers the cost of food, drinks, other supplies and amenities such as toiletries, cleaning products, and water sports equipment, and any special items or activities you may request. Yacht charters on Below Deck often include world-class cuisine and personalized menus for guests, prepared by skilled chefs. Some charters offer an "all-inclusive" rate, while others have an advanced provisioning allowance (APA), which covers these costs, usually around 20–30% of the charter cost.

Be aware of fuel and dockage fees

Depending on your itinerary and how much time you spend cruising versus docking, these fees can vary. Fuel costs can significantly increase the overall cost of your charter, especially for larger vessels with more powerful engines. As a general rule, guests should expect to pay anywhere from $50,000 to $100,000 or more in fuel fees for a one-week charter.

Dockage fees depend on the marina, location, and length of your yacht, and they are usually charged per night. As a general rule, guests should expect to pay anywhere from $2,000 to $10,000 or more in dockage fees for a one-week charter. When planning your Below Deck yacht charter, work closely with your yacht broker or charter company to estimate these costs based on your desired itinerary.

Booking a Below Deck yacht charter can be a complex process, but with the help of a yacht charter broker, it can be made easier. It can take several months, especially during peak season, so it's recommended to start the process at least six months in advance to ensure that you can secure your preferred yacht and itinerary. Here are the steps to book a Below Deck yacht charter:

Choose your yacht - Research the different Below Deck yachts and choose the one that best suits your needs and preferences.

Determine your itinerary - Discuss your preferred sailing location and itinerary with your yacht charter broker. They can help you plan the perfect itinerary based on your preferences. Some yachts featured on Below Deck have cruised through the Caribbean or the British Virgin Islands, so consider the ambiance you're looking for on your charter.

Decide on your dates - Determine the dates that you would like to charter the yacht. Keep in mind that peak season (June to September) typically has higher charter rates than off-peak season (October to May).

Discuss your budget - Work with your yacht charter broker to determine your budget for the charter. They can help you find a yacht and itinerary that fits within your budget.

Sign the contract - Once you have chosen your yacht, itinerary, and dates, your yacht charter broker will provide you with a contract to sign. This contract will outline the terms and conditions of the charter, including the price, payment schedule, and cancellation policy.

Make the initial payment - Once you have signed the contract, you will need to make an initial payment to secure the yacht for your chosen dates.

Finalize the details - Work with your yacht charter broker to finalize the details of your charter, including the crew, menu, and any additional activities or amenities.

Enjoy your charter - Once all the details are finalized, it's time to enjoy your Below Deck yacht charter. The crew will take care of all your needs and ensure that you have an unforgettable experience.

Here's a friendly guide to help you navigate the cancellation policies to avoid any unwanted surprises or losses on your investment.

As a general rule, most yacht charter companies adhere to industry-standard cancellation policies, which are designed to safeguard both you and the yacht owner. However, each yacht may have specific terms and conditions based on the owner's preference. It's always best to inquire about these details before signing a charter agreement.

Typically, if you cancel your trip within a certain time frame, you will receive a partial or full refund of your deposit. For example, if you cancel more than six months before your scheduled departure date, you might be eligible for a full refund. On the other hand, if you cancel within a shorter time frame, you may be subject to a penalty or forfeit your deposit entirely.

The specific terms and conditions of cancellation policies when chartering a Below Deck yacht can vary depending on the yacht and the charter company. However, here are some general guidelines for cancellation policies:

If the charter is cancelled by the charterer (the person or group booking the yacht), the following cancellation fees may apply:

• If the cancellation is made more than 90 days before the charter start date, the charterer may forfeit the initial deposit.
• If the cancellation is made between 90 and 60 days before the charter start date, the charterer may be required to pay 25-50% of the total charter fee.
• If the cancellation is made between 60 and 30 days before the charter start date, the charterer may be required to pay 50-75% of the total charter fee.
• If the cancellation is made less than 30 days before the charter start date, the charterer may be required to pay the full charter fee.

If the charter is cancelled by the charter company (due to technical problems with the yacht, for example), the charterer will typically receive a full refund of any payments made.

Some yacht owners require the payment of a cancellation fee, which can either be a fixed amount or a percentage of the total charter cost. Make sure to inquire about these details before booking your dream Below Deck experience.

Lastly, consider purchasing travel insurance to cover unforeseen circumstances, such as illness or travel restrictions, that might lead to a trip cancellation. This way, you'll have peace of mind knowing that you're covered should the unexpected happen.

Cost to Rent a Mediterranean Superyacht: Less Than You Think

Here's Your First Look at the New 'Below Deck Med' Yacht!

Updated June 5 2020, 1:07 p.m. ET

Our favorite Bravo show, Below Deck Mediterranean , is back for Season 5! Once again, the maritime reality show is making big waves, this time because the show will be taking place aboard the biggest boat in the series’ history.

Captain Sandy , Chief Stewardess Hannah Ferrier and Season 2 alum Malia White are back for another wild charter season, this time sailing around the beach resort town of Mallorca, Spain.

Keep reading to learn more about the Wellington, “by far the biggest vessel [Sandy’s] ever run," which is currently docked on a Mallorca pier.

Check out The Wellington, 'Below Deck Mediterranean's newest yacht.

The Wellesley , which will be known as The Wellington on the beloved Bravo show , is a 184.5 ft luxury yacht built in 1993 that had a major refitting in 2016, which included a seven-meter extension. 

The boat is a great option for large families or corporate charters, and includes numerous lounging areas, interior and exterior dining capabilities, as well as a number of amenities like an extensive collection of water toys, a jacuzzi, sauna, gym equipment, bar, and barbecue. 

The main salon boasts wood and marble interiors designed by well-known interior stylists Donald Starkey and Dennis Irvine, with plush leather furnishings that give it a refined appearance. Captain Sandy said that she would do her “pre-charter meeting[s] and…[her] tip meeting[s]” there during the charter season. 

The main deck even includes a cigar room!

Just when you thought you knew luxury, Below Deck goes and ups your standards. Right off the main salon, The Wellington also offers a wood-paneled cigar room which audiences have not yet seen on a Below Deck yacht before, complete with a cabinet of fine whiskeys and scotches. 

"Obviously, they spared no expense when it comes to this," Sandy says. "This owner really loves his cigars and his whiskey.” With an entire wall cabinet dedicated to vintage cigars, choice whiskeys and crystal tumblers, guests can enjoy their cigars in the company of other famous cigar smokers like Winston Churchill and Che Guevara, whose portraits hang from the walls. 

Past the salon is the master cabin, with refurbished mahogany bedrooms fitted with sheets by Italian luxury linen company, Pratesi, whose sheets go for around €2,000. That’s almost $2,200! 

Even more impressive is the VIP suite, which has a panoramic glass windows that allow guests to enjoy the night sky as they sail the Mediterranean seas.

The Wellington’s exteriors are equally luxe.

The luxury continues as you step outside on to the Wellington’s main deck aft, of course. On the upper deck is a massive sunbathing area along with plush seating for guests to enjoy the view and unwind with drinks. The deck also features a waterfall-equipped jacuzzi and a grill where the yacht’s chef can prepare a table-side lunch.

So kewl! Explore "The Wellington" as seen in S5 of #BelowDeckMed https://t.co/BT12fTfNnz — Captain Sandy Yawn (@CaptSandyYawn) May 1, 2020

Toys aboard the Wellington include the high-speed jet skis, Seabobs, scuba diving equipment, inflatable toys, and of course, a water slide. In case any of the guests aren’t keen on the water, the boat also has a range of gym equipment to keep active and enjoy some ground-based exercises. 

And if anyone doesn’t feel like water sports or gymming, this season’s crew will also include a professional massage therapist for those looking to get some soothing treatments.

Take a very cool 3D tour of the mind-blowing Wellington to see all the luxurious details up close. Catch new episodes of Below Deck Sailing on Monday at 8 p.m. ET with Season 5 of Below Deck Mediterranean premiering in Summer 2020.

How Big Is Motor Yacht Wellington?

Table of Contents:

The 56.2m 184.5ft Oceanco motor yacht, The Wellesley, was built in 1993 by Netherlands-based custom yacht builder Oceanco and has been listed for sale by TWW Yachts with an asking price of €14,500,000. The yacht, also known as The Wellington in season five of Below Deck Mediterranean, is a luxury yacht that was renamed The Wellington for the show. Built in 1993, it has a cruising speed of 14 knots and can reach a maximum speed of 16 knots. The exterior was designed by Gerhard Gilgenast and its interior was designed by Donald Starkey.

The 56.1-meter yacht, which starred as The Wellington in the yachting reality TV show Below Deck Mediterranean, was recently listed for sale by TWW Yachts with an original design. The yacht, which was renamed The Wellington for the show, accommodates up to 12 guests in five cabins. A master cabin on the owners deck offers incredible views, while the sundeck is dedicated to exterior.

The 54.8-meter Benetti superyacht is the second biggest yacht ever to feature on the show, following just behind the 56.2 meter motor yacht The Wellington from season one. The 49m (164ft) motor yacht MERCURY is a high-quality and highly reliable Dutch-built luxury yacht.

In summary, The Wellesley, a luxury yacht built in 1993 by Dutch shipyard Oceanco, is now available for sale on TWW Yachts with an asking price of €14,500,000. The yacht, which was renamed The Wellington for the show, is a stunning example of the luxury yachts that have graced the yachting world.

What is the largest privately owned yacht in the world?

Azzam Azzam (597 ft) Azzam holds the title of largest privately owned superyacht, a position it has maintained since it was completed at a cost of $600 million by Lürssen Yachts in Lemwerder, Germany, ten years ago.

Measuring upwards of 533 feet, these vessels start at the equivalent length of roughly a 50-story building.

Yachts, as with most other things connected to the ultrarich—apartments, shopping sprees, bank accounts—are getting bigger. And while price, nautically speaking, usually scales with size, that’s not always the case. So there’s, oddly enough, less overlap between this list and our recent list of theWorld’s Most Expensive Superyachts than one might expect.

There are reasons behind this. Interestingly, some of the biggest superyachts in the world have become so stunningly large that they can no longer maintain status as belonging to a single family or dynasty. The largest ones have become condominiums or charterable research vessels—playthings for the ultrawealthy.

Who owns the $1.5 billion dollar yacht?

2. Eclipse ($1.5 billion). In addition to being the second-costliest, this 533-footer is thought to be the world’s second-largest private yacht. Owned by Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich, the ship was claimed to be located in Turkey and may be impounded as part of the United Kingdom’s sanctions against Russia. Designed by Terry Disdale and built by Blohm + Voss, it features two-dozen guest cabins, two swimming pools, two helipads, and multiple hot tubs. For privacy and security reasons, it hosts a missile detection system, bulletproof windows in the primary bedroom and on the bridge, an anti-paparazzi shield, and, when all of that fails, a mini-submarine that can take a few VIPs 164 feet under the ocean’s surface.

1. History Supreme ($4.8 billion). History Supreme has never actually been seen in a major port, and rumors suggest that the yacht may not be real and instead just a publicity stunt. Reportedly owned by Malaysia’s richest man, Robert Kuok, and designed by Stuart Hughes in the UK, the yacht is only a paltry 100 feet long. Its worth is said to be derived from its lavish finishes, including a statue constructed from genuine Tyrannosaurus rex bones, a liquor bottle embedded with an 18.5-carat diamond, and a primary bedroom with one wall made from meteorite and another from a 24-karat gold Aquavista Panoramic Wall Aquarium. If you see it somewhere, let us know.

This is why people like Amazon founder Jeff Bezos work to keep their yachts out of the public eye. Though we are not including Jeff Bezos’s yacht, Koru (Maori for “coil”), in this list because it is a sailing yacht and thus excluded from the realm of these motor yachts, it created controversy in the Netherlands when its presence became known. Jeff Bezos’s abided the $500 million price tag of Oceanco, the Dutch custom yacht builder, to create the 417-foot megayacht. But when the company, at Bezos’s behest, requested that a local bridge be dismantled to make way for its gigantic mast on its journey from the shipyard, public sentiment turned against the cento-billionaire, and Oceano shelved its request. Maybe a port like Monaco would be more accommodating?

Who owns the 4 billion dollar yacht?

History Supreme. History Supreme is worth 4.8 billion dollars and is undoubtedly one of the most expensive yachts in the world to date. It has a magnificent look to it as it is covered entirely with solid gold.

Solid gold of 10,000kg is used on this 100-foot-long yacht; its owner is Robert Knok who is one of the wealthiest Malaysians. This beautiful yacht is a masterpiece by the famous designer from the United Kingdom, Stuart Hughes.

The most brilliant thing about this yacht is its master bedroom, where you will witness wonderful decor from meteorite rocks and a statue built from genuine tyrannosaurus rex bones on a wall. There is also a wall aquarium in the room, which is adorned with 68 kg 24-carat gold. All of this adds to the magnificence of this oceanic palace.

Streets of Monaco. The streets of Monaco make the dream of a floating city come true. It is worth 1.1 billion dollars and is a testament to beauty. The crafts of this unique yacht make us wonder how much thought is put into its construction it.

Does Mark Zuckerberg have a yacht?

Mark Zuckerberg’s new yacht, Launchpad, is enjoying its summer debut. The megayacht recently stopped in Mallorca and has since ventured further into the Mediterranean. It looks like Zuckerberg may dethrone Jeff Bezos as king of this year’s superyacht season.

While the Amazon founder made waves last year with the debut of his megayacht Koru, Zuckerberg is the name on the yacht world’s lips this season.

By May, the transaction seemed all but confirmed when both the yacht and Zuckerberg made their way to Panama to celebrate his 40th birthday with a fete that included a few spins on his infamous hydrofoil.

Now that summer is here, Zuckerberg has debuted Launchpad —and her support superyacht Wingman — on the biggest stage in the yachting world: the Mediterranean.

How big is the yacht the Wellington?

The Wellington, from her real name The Wellesley, is a beautiful 184,5 feet Oceanco built-in 2013. This superyacht is owned by Khalid Affara. Donald Starkey recreates with his design the grandeur of the Wellesley Hotel in Knightsbridge. She accommodates up to 12 guests.

Showcased in the 5th season of Below Deck Mediterranean shot in Spain, her charter price goes from $280,000 to $304,500 per week in the Mediterranean.

Lady Michelle is the star of the 6th season of Below Deck Mediterranean shot in Croatia. Her previous names were Cakewalk, Altitude, and Amnesia.

How much does it cost to charter the Wellington yacht?

The Wellington Yacht Cost to Charter Summer charters are from €230,000 or $273,500 per week plus expenses. Winter charters are from €220,000 or $259,500 per week plus expenses.

Its exterior was designed by Gerhard Gilgenast and its elegant 1920s inspired interior was designed by Donald Starkey. Mahogany bedrooms, Italian linens, and painted portraits of Winston Churchill and Che Guevara smoking cigars are just a few of the details that bring in Jazz Age glamour to the vessel’s interior.

Do Below Deck guests pay?

Guests really do pay for their charter.. “They spend their real money to be on the show,” executive producer Mark Cronin told Bravo TV. But since it may not be the most relaxing trip, guests that are featured on the reality show get a 50% discount on their charter.

The guests pay tips out of pocket, too.. It’s entirely up to the guests what they tip crew members. So if the crew feels slighted by a small tip, that’s all real.
