Each week we place a spotlight on one of the world’s finest yachts for charter. This week BOAT steps aboard 95-metre O’Pari in Greece, which is up there among the world’s finest (and most expensive) yachts for charter.
Tipping the scale at more than €1,000,000 a week, the 95-metre superyacht O’Pari is among the world’s most expensive yachts to charter and it’s not difficult to see why. With a gross tonnage of 2,743GT, sumptuous materials, pizza ovens and a crew of 29, O’Pari is a charter machine; carefully designed to tick off almost any requirement for the discerning charter guest.
Built in 2020 as Golden Yachts' flagship, the 95-metre was less about size and more about excellence, as noted by the owner. The design process was one of intricacy, carefully selecting precious woods, clever indirect lighting and bold artwork, but it needed to strike a balance that would be exciting, yet appeal to the wider market.
The result is just that, with muted tones bringing a feeling of elegance to the interior with wide open spaces and plenty of lounge space. From a long list of onboard highlights, O’Pari has proved her status in the upper echelons of the charter fleet with her huge sundeck, wellness credentials, helipad and endless entertainment on board.

O’Pari was designed inside and out by Studio Vafiadis, who also worked on Golden Yachts’ 39-metre O’Pati and 78-metre Malia (ex O’Rea). Stepping on board the vast open-planned main saloon, the space is flooded with natural light – an important parameter for the owner – and with a large central seating area and vast windows. While practical, the windows feel like an architectural feature in themselves, given their size.
Accommodation on board is for 12, although there will be plenty of choice for guests with a total of 14 cabins on board. Designed with the same neutral tones in a darker, slightly masculine palette with individually selected rare or precious woods and fabrics. Here, guests will find grained wooden panelling in ebony, ash, lime and walnut burr combined with metallic detailing to beds and nightstands. Each of the bathrooms showcases contrasting Greek marble and mosaics.
Life on board O'Pari
Alongside comfort and space, fitness is at the forefront of O’Pari’s charter credentials with a fully stocked gym on the bridge deck, which leads out to a swimming pool aft. A sea-level beach club also has a massage and beauty room, a warm hammam and a Finnish sauna.
A true entertainer, BOAT steps on board during one of the yacht’s pizza parties, which guests can enjoy on the sundeck. Chef Takis Papayiannis sets up a line of Ooni pizza ovens and makes the pizzas before guests’ eyes, who can choose to construct their own pizzas too with music playing, rosé and cocktails flowing and dancing.
Outside space onboard is vast, with ample spots for sunbathing (and dancing) and several alcoves of lounge space dotted around the yacht to take in the views undisturbed. On the aft deck, there is also a large dining table for the full complement of guests and a sit-up bar. There is also a retractable screen on the sundeck for relaxing movie nights under the stars.
But the fun doesn’t stop when you step off O’Pari as she has a fully stocked toy box to explore too including jet skis, sea bobs and more.
Where will O'Pari be cruising?
O’Pari is available to charter with Fraser Greece with a weekly rate from €1,100,000. She will be cruising in Greece as well as the rest of the Mediterranean this summer.
