The Cookielicious yacht style is widely referred to as the 'Bentley of the Seas'
Entrepreneur and founder of Millies Cookies, Mario Budwig, is the financial backer behind a company helping holidaymakers enjoy a genuine flavour of the A-list lifestyle onboard a private luxury 72ft yacht, Cookielicious.
Following the weather, Cookielicious sails in the Med (summer) and the Caribbean (winter) to ensure sun-seekers have the perfect conditions to enjoy the first-class facilities that come with a professionally crewed sailing yacht.
Budwig said: “Luxury yachts are often associated with celebrities and the mega rich and, for that reason, are regarded as exclusive beyond reach. With Cookielicious our intention is to explode this myth and bring this aspirational lifestyle to a wider audience, including families and those who may not have sailed before.
“A holiday on Cookielicious, enjoying the freedom a private yacht brings and seclusion a hotel could never provide, will be attainable and memorable.”
Hinting at the levels of onboard luxury, this type of Oyster-built yacht is widely referred to as the ‘Bentley of the Seas’ and it’s easy to see why.
Each of the three deluxe air-conditioned cabins are fitted with modern creature comforts and neat touches more often associated with five star hotel rooms, such as flatscreen TVs and DVD players. Internet access is also provided.
Above all, the crew is on hand to ensure this luxury holiday experience surpasses guests’ five-star expectations.
As Cookielicious caters as much for those attracted by the benefits an exclusive holiday brings as the lure of the oceans, this may be the first sailing holiday for many of those on board. Novice and experienced sailors of all ages are therefore encouraged to get involved as much or as little as they like in crewing the yacht.
For holidaymakers keen on learning or improving their watersports skills, the Cookielicious crew members can also instruct in waterskiing, wakeboarding and windsurfing.
The experience of snorkelling in remote and crystal clear coves can only be topped by scuba diving in the warm azure waters – yet another pursuit the team can arrange. Meanwhile, those less inclined to get wet can enjoy fishing or cycling whenever Cookielicious docks.
Whilst an ideal opportunity for all the family to discover a fun new discipline, those who prefer to enjoy their island-hopping adventure from the comfort of the sundeck are equally welcome to leave the sailing to the experts.
No luxury holiday would be complete without great cuisine. For each holiday, Cookielicious’
Cookielicious comfortably sleeps up to six adults and two children, creating the perfect luxury holiday for families, groups of friends or romantic couples seeking the ultimate getaway. The yacht’s itinerary is adapted to the guests’ holiday style, whether looking for quiet anchorages or lively ports.
Budwig said: “Groups of friends regularly hire exclusive chalets but rarely consider that a luxury yacht can deliver an equivalent experience – albeit this time on water and in the sunshine. With so many facilities onboard, we anticipate that Cookielicious will appeal to those who may not previously have considered a sailing holiday but are simply looking for a stylish escape with attentive service.”
The price of chartering the yacht starts from £2,585 per person per week based on a group of six adults. This includes crew and all watersports activities but excludes extras such as fuel, food, drink and gratuities.
