Cumberland Charter Yachts – A Unique Bareboat Experience.

The gentle lapping of water against your bedroom wall lulls you to sleep as you dream of the scenic views you took in for the day from your floating hotel room. Experience star-filled nights in tranquil anchorages, visit secluded bays, explore rainforest covered islands or sun yourself on world famous Whitehaven Beach. Snorkel the fringing coral of the Great Barrier Reef and come face to face with abundant marine life. Sunsets compete with each other trying to outdo the day before, and your only worry is which direction the wind is coming from.

Set your own pace and plan your own itinerary, confident of the backup and support only a radio call away from Cumberland Charter Yachts and our team of qualified professional mariners. Experience it all and create a lifetime of memories that will exceed your expectations on a bareboat charter in the Whitsundays with Cumberland Charter Yachts.

Mazlin House, Airlie Beach Waterfront Holiday Home **Fantastic Waterfront Pool!**
Firstly, the location was very convenient. Close to the main strip, overlooking the water. The house itself felt like a home with everything available to us. I strongly recommend this house because I'll definitely be back.

The Power House - Views & More
Excellent location in an excellent place! Only a short walk into Airlie. The house itself was amazing, with big windows inside and a great outdoor set up to enjoy the incredible views it offered. We stayed with a large group of adults and there was more than enough space for all of us. The house had great facilities, including a washing machine and dryer as well as everything we needed to cook and share meals.The hosts were very helpful, friendly and maintained great communication, answering any and all any questions we had. We stayed during the cyclone and hosts were extremely responsive and accommodating. Could not recommend this stay any more and will definitely be back!

Coastal Haven Retreat - Luxe Airlie Beach Holiday Home
We had an amazing stay at this Whitsundays property. The place was incredibly spacious, clean, and comfortable, with plenty of room to relax. The views over the Whitsundays were absolutely stunning—waking up to that scenery each day was a real highlight. Everything felt well thought out, and it was the perfect base to enjoy the area. Highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway with breathtaking views.

Coastal Haven Retreat - Luxe Airlie Beach Holiday Home
Amazing stay at Airlie Views — exactly what you want for an Airlie Beach getaway. The views are unreal, the layout is spacious and comfortable, and the outdoor areas (especially the balcony and pool) were perfect for relaxing after a day out on the water. Great central location overlooking Airlie itself, and far enough away to not feel you're in the thick of it. Well set up for a group or family. Would happily stay again.

Nautilus on Nara - Spacious Airlie Beach Holiday Home with Ocean Views (Pets on application)
Everything about this place was true to what was described. We stayed as a family of 7, and had a lot of space to move around indoors and out on the balcony, which has incredible views of Airlie by the way. Nights were quiet and peaceful and waking up to that view while having a coffee, absolutely perfect. Thankyou Whitsunday Vacation, we can’t wait to come back xx

'Vue de Bleu' Luxury Whitsunday Retreat
J’ai passé 3 jours dans cette fabuleuse maison avec mes amis. Tout s’est parfaitement passé, la maison est exceptionnelle et nous étions ravi. Seul petit point négatif, il n’y a que des rideaux dans les chambres donc on était réveillé par le lever du soleil. Ça n’empêche pas absolument pas le fait que nous avons passé 3 fabuleux jours !
