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.

Holiday on The Horizon, Airlie Beach Holiday Home with Jacuzzi
The views were absolutely stunning - perched up nice and high to get a beautiful view of Airlie and its surrounding islands!! The location was secluded enough that we felt nice and tucked away but close enough that we could walk to the main street. The house itself was absolutely gorgeous, had everything we needed and we all agreed the beds were some of the comfiest beds we had ever slept on. The check in and check out process was seamless and the hosts were great and gave us places to go and extra tips for our stay. We absolutely loved it!!

Holiday on The Horizon, Airlie Beach Holiday Home with Jacuzzi
An absolute dream stay! That direct ocean view is even more breathtaking in person than in the photos waking up to it every morning completely made my trip. The place was spotless, so cozy, and had everything we needed. Whitsunday Vacations made the whole booking super smooth too. Can't wait to come back!

'Vue de Bleu' Luxury Whitsunday Retreat
If you want views this is the place 😍 Beautiful home with stunning views overlooking the Whitsunday islands.Every morning absolutely wonderful sunrises out every window facing the water. The home itself is modern and spacious. It was perfect for our family holiday, with 3 separate levels, which worked well for us. The swimming pool was clean and also had the same exquisite views. We watched boats head out to the islands and stingrays swim in the shallows at low tide all from the deck. HIGHLY RECOMMEND, loved our stay And thanks to our host Ali who was fabulous at recommending and booking some of our activities We did the Ocean rafting, it was a great way to see the islands. Also the flight over the reef …. Amazing

We had an absolutely beautiful stay in Airlie Beach. The house was amazing and a beautiful location. There was so much to see and do - definite highlight was our day out on the water, where we saw whales, dolphins and turtles. Such a lovely holiday. We would highly recommend staying here and we definitely plan to return.
