One of the last authentic Gentleman's Riviera Cruisers, built in Antibes by Chantiers Naval d'Antibes, offering timeless character and classic French Riviera elegance.
Zero-speed stabilisers provide exceptional comfort both underway and at anchor.
Outstanding value with a professional crew of four, including a chef, delivering a level of service rarely found on yachts in this price range
Spacious interior and exterior living areas, ideal for families, groups of friends and corporate entertaining
Loyal, experienced charter crew led by a Captain with over six years onboard, consistently earning excellent guest feedback and repeat bookings.
New owners (2026) investing significantly in the yacht, with over €350,000 already spent on maintenance and upgrades to ensure she continues to improv
Flexible relocation available throughout the French Riviera.
Very economical in terms of fuel costs - 150 litres per hour at 15 knot (65 litres per hour at 10 knots).
Overview
CHANTELLA is a truly unique Gentleman's Riviera Cruiser, built in Antibes in 1966 by Chantiers Naval d'Antibes.
Full of character and timeless elegance, she offers an authentic French Riviera yachting experience that is becoming increasingly rare.
Favoured by movie stars, royalty and high society during the golden age of the Côte d'Azur, these iconic cruisers helped define the glamorous Riviera lifestyle. Today, CHANTELLA allows guests to relive a piece of that history while enjoying all the comforts needed for a relaxed charter.
One of the very few remaining Gentleman's Riviera Cruisers available for charter, CHANTELLA celebrates her heritage with onboard photo albums documenting her remarkable history from launch to the present day.
Purchased by passionate new owners in 2026, CHANTELLA is benefiting from a substantial programme of investment, with over €350,000 already spent on essential maintenance, engineering and upgrades. The owners are committed to preserving and continually improving this classic yacht for many years to come.
Mechanically, she has been extensively modernised, including being re-engined twice (most recently in 2020 with efficient Volvo engines), fitted with zero-speed stabilisers, new generators, an extended main salon and upper deck, ensuring a comfortable cruising experience while retaining her classic charm.
Rather than offering minimalist modern interiors, CHANTELLA embraces her traditional yacht styling with warm wood panelling, elegant furnishings and inviting living spaces that create a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere.
She comfortably accommodates 8 guests in 4 cabins comprising three doubles and one twin bunk cabin, making her particularly well suited to families or groups of friends.
The spacious salon features generous seating, a bar and formal dining for up to 10 guests.
One of CHANTELLA's greatest strengths is her exceptionally generous exterior space. Guests can enjoy alfresco dining on the aft deck, expansive sunbathing areas, dining for up to 10 guests on the sundeck, optional shade from the bimini, and large foredeck sunpads perfect for relaxing at anchor.
With an outstanding crew of four, including a long-serving captain who knows the yacht intimately, CHANTELLA consistently receives exceptional feedback for her warm, attentive and family-friendly service. Many guests return year after year, a testament to the atmosphere created onboard.
For guests who appreciate classic style, generous living space, outstanding service and exceptional value, CHANTELLA represents one of the French Riviera's best-kept charter secrets.
Guest Feedback
"We had an unforgettable time onboard CHANTELLA. I absolutely loved the yacht's classic design - it has so much character and charm while still being incredibly comfortable. The crew were super friendly, welcoming and made us feel at home from the moment we stepped onboard. We had so much fun swimming, making the most of the water toys and enjoying everything the South of France has to offer. It was such a memorable trip from start to finish, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing week on the water."
