As your independent concierge on the docks of Aruba, I’m always on the lookout for the very best—and occasionally, something truly exceptional arrives. For the 2026 season, I’m thrilled to introduce two magnificent additions that are set to redefine luxury and excitement on our waters. These aren't just new boats; they are experiences meticulously crafted for discerning guests, raising expectations for luxury charters in Aruba.
1. The Emilia (Pelican Adventures): The Pinnacle of Catamaran Luxury
Prepare to embark on a journey of unparalleled elegance aboard the Emilia, a brand new Contoy 70' luxury catamaran. This isn't just a boat; it's a floating sanctuary designed for sophisticated travelers seeking the ultimate in comfort, space, and gourmet experiences. If you've enjoyed the Monforte, imagine its grand evolution—the Emilia takes everything you love and elevates it to new heights.
What Makes Emilia Extraordinary?
Expansive Deck Space: At 70 feet, Emilia offers an incredible amount of room to relax, sunbathe, or gather. She boasts multiple lounge areas, from sun-drenched trampolines to shaded al-fresco dining spaces. There’s ample room for everyone to find their perfect spot without ever feeling crowded.
Gourmet Dining Experience: Forget standard boat buffets. Emilia is equipped to deliver a multi-course dinner at sea, rivaling Aruba’s finest restaurants. Expect fresh, expertly prepared cuisine served with impeccable attention to detail, complemented by a premium bar.
Unmatched Stability and Comfort: Her catamaran design ensures a smooth, stable ride, making her ideal for those who prefer calm seas and relaxed cruising.
Elegance in Every Detail: From her sleek lines to her refined interior finishes, Emilia exudes modern luxury, promising an aesthetic experience as pleasing as the journey itself.
Perfect for: Milestone celebrations, romantic sunset dinners, high-end corporate retreats, or anyone desiring a truly elevated and intimate large-group experience.

2. AWA II, The Saxdor 40 GTO (AWA Aruba): Speed Meets Unrivaled Style
For those who crave exhilarating speed without compromising on innovative design and luxury, look no further than the AWA II, a stunning Saxdor 40 motor yacht. This vessel is a game-changer, perfectly blending high-performance capabilities with revolutionary features for an unforgettable day on the water.
What Makes AWA II a Standout?
Dynamic Performance: Powered by robust engines, the Saxdor 40 offers impressive speed, allowing you to quickly reach Aruba's most pristine snorkeling spots, hidden coves, or simply enjoy the thrill of gliding across the Caribbean Sea.
Revolutionary Fold-Down Terraces: This is where AWA II truly shines! With the push of a button, her side decks transform into expansive, teak-lined swim platforms. These "private islands" dramatically increase your usable deck space at anchor, creating an incredible open-air lounge right on the water's edge.
Chic, Modern Design: Every inch of the Saxdor 40 GTO exudes contemporary style, from her sleek hull to her meticulously appointed interior and comfortable sun pads.
Perfect for Entertaining: With ample seating, a well-equipped wet bar, and those incredible fold-down terraces, AWA II is an entertainer's dream, ideal for lively group outings or sophisticated cocktail cruises.
Perfect for: Adrenaline seekers, trendsetters, intimate gatherings with friends, or anyone looking for a unique and stylish way to explore Aruba's coast.
