Elevated travel experiences built around the sport you love.
Pickleball in Paradise
looks like this.
Most Yacht Experiences Are Out of Reach. This One Isn’t.
Your boutique yacht adventure begins at $3,700 per guest, complete with airport transfers, pre-night stay, curated tours, and unlimited access to motorized water toys, kayaks, paddleboards, and more!
Where Luxury Meets the Court
Anchor in a secluded Croatian bay, where turquoise waters surround your luxury yacht. Play pickleball on Aretha’s floating court, kayak and paddleboard to hidden coves, or simply relax on deck with a chilled drink.
Each day brings a new island to explore — cobblestone streets, ancient fortresses, vibrant markets, and the charm of Croatia’s coast. Evenings are a Mediterranean feast, with gourmet meals prepared by top chefs.
Sport. Culture. Adventure. Indulgence. All in one unforgettable week.
