Overview

CHRISTINA O yacht charter in Mediterranean

A CHRISTINA O charter is strongest when the yacht choice is tied to the route. For larger private groups, celebrations, and corporate hosting, the useful question is how a flagship charter mood built around privacy, hosting, and status fits Balearic weather windows, lunch stops, and the right balance between open-water cruising and calm anchorages and whether the yacht is not forced into a rushed sightseeing loop.

How to use CHRISTINA O

CHRISTINA O is best considered for larger private groups, celebrations, and corporate hosting, with a flagship charter mood built around privacy, hosting, and status. The useful planning angle is a high-service event charter, not a generic yacht-listing comparison.

Shortlist logic

Why this yacht belongs in the conversation

CHRISTINA O should make the shortlist when the brief needs a high-service event charter around Mediterranean and Ibiza. The decision should weigh 325'3 / 99.13m, 34 guests, 17 cabins, 1943 | 2025 (Refitted) against route timing and guest flow.

When this yacht makes sense

CHRISTINA O suits larger private groups, celebrations, and corporate hosting when the brief is a high-service event charter. The 34 guests profile gives enough structure to plan the guest list early. 17 cabins also makes overnight suitability easier to judge.

Where to use it

Mediterranean can work well for CHRISTINA O, but the route needs discipline. The best plan keeps the day focused instead of trying to collect too many stops, especially when the yacht is not forced into a rushed sightseeing loop.

Season and booking notes

Season matters because berth pressure, weather windows, and guest expectations change the charter. May to October, with July and August best handled through early routing and clear guest plans. A useful shortlist should also explain why compare by guest flow, deck use, and cabin layout before price alone.

Life on board

a flagship charter mood built around privacy, hosting, and status. The toy and tender setup gives the broker more room to shape swim stops and guest flow. This is where a broker note is more useful than a raw specification list.

Compare before booking

Do not compare CHRISTINA O on price alone. The stronger comparison is whether another yacht makes Ibiza, Formentera, and sunset anchorages easier, gives the group a better deck rhythm, or solves a port constraint more cleanly.

What to verify

A good recommendation for CHRISTINA O should include one reason to choose it and one condition to verify. That keeps the page useful for real charter planning instead of becoming another listing entry.

Overview

The 99.15m/325'4" 'Christina O' classic yacht built by the Canadian shipyard Canadian Vickers is available for charter for up to 34 guests in 17 cabins. This yacht features interior styling by Apostolos Molindris & Associates. Onassis epitomised the life of the superyacht elite, garnering a reputation as the original jetsetter, but following his death in 1975, Christina O fell into disrepair. Luckily, a meticulous restoration project led by a family friend of Onassis was completed in 2001 and, today, charterers can enjoy the resonance of her unique past with the ultimate in luxurious accommodation and on-board service. For refined luxury and elegance, look no further than classic yacht Christina O. Offering an array of sumptuous living areas coupled with superb amenities, you'll feel like Hollywood royalty aboard this spectacular vessel. Her features include a dancefloor, beauty salon, spa, elevator and gym.

Exterior Design

Styled in the early fifties by Caesar Pinnau, the exterior of Christina O easily stands out among other superyachts on today’s charter market thanks to her distinctive clipper bow, long sheer line, rounded superstructure and dazzling white topsides, and this is not forgetting her trademark, vibrant yellow funnel. A variety of vast open-air spaces across Christina O offer a multitude of options for lounging and socialising. The top level of the yacht, known as the compass deck, is well-primed for sunning, with a line of chaise loungers and a bar, while the spacious promenade deck below features an aft spa pool, and alfresco dining and bar setup. Most impressive is the main deck, where Onassis’ swimming pool has been faithfully restored with its renowned Minoan bull and vaulter mosaic. What’s more, the bottom of the pool can be raised to form a dance floor.

Interior Design

Christina O’s expansive interior was completely gutted during her most recent refit, with notable artefacts salvaged and sensitively restored. Aftermost on the main deck is the Lapis Lounge, named after its original lapis fireplace, which remains in place, and decorated in the style of an English country manor house. The main deck is also home to a dining salon with a 24-seater table, and the Aris Bar, which boasts its original rope-covered bar, whale fang bar handles and whale-skin bar stools. A majestic atrium with a striking mosaic of the Onassis omega logo then allows guests to access the two further salons on the promenade deck above via a spiral staircase.

Performance Range

Christina O is built with a steel hull and aluminium superstructure. Powered by twin MAN engines, she comfortably cruises at 15 knots, reaches a maximum speed of 19 knots with a range of up to 5,000 nautical miles from her 329,000 litre fuel tanks at 10 knots. An on board stabilization system ensures comfort when underway.

Guest Accommodation

Known as the Onassis Suite, the yacht’s master stateroom stretches across the forward section of the bridge deck and comprises three rooms: large sleeping quarters, a white Penteli marble bathroom and a book-lined study. The latter is oak-panelled and boasts the original onyx fireplace, while the bedroom is illuminated by authentic Baccarat crystal wall lights, adding to its elegance. The other accommodation on board comprises 10 double staterooms on the main deck forward and eight convertible cabins on the lower deck.
