Terms of Service

Who we are

Elite Rentals Europe ("we", "us") is a yacht charter brokerage based in Malta. We arrange yacht charters between clients and independent yacht owners, operators and central agencies ("Operators"). We act as a broker: the charter itself is performed by the Operator under the Operator's charter agreement.

Quotes and availability

All prices, yachts and itineraries shown on our website or communicated by our team are indicative and subject to availability and final confirmation by the Operator. A charter is confirmed only once the Operator's charter agreement is signed and the required payment has been made. Unless stated otherwise, charter rates exclude VAT, fuel and Advance Provisioning Allowance (APA), which are charged per the charter agreement.

Booking and payment

Charter contracts are concluded directly between you and the Operator. Payments are made to the Operator per their contract terms; crewed weekly charters typically run on MYBA terms. We will always tell you before you sign who the contracting Operator is and what the payment schedule looks like.

Cancellations and changes

Cancellation and rebooking conditions are governed by the Operator's charter agreement for your booking. We will help you navigate any change or cancellation, but we cannot override the Operator's terms.

Your responsibilities

You are responsible for the accuracy of the information you provide (group size, dates, special requirements), for your party complying with the captain's instructions and applicable laws on board, and for arriving with valid travel documents. Day charters in most Mediterranean jurisdictions are limited to 12 guests per vessel regardless of vessel size.

Liability

We arrange charters with reasonable skill and care. As broker we are not liable for the acts or omissions of Operators, crew, or third parties, nor for events outside our reasonable control (weather, port authority decisions, technical failure of the vessel). Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.

Communication

By contacting us via WhatsApp, email or our website you agree that we may respond and follow up about your inquiry through those channels. We do not send marketing without consent. See our Privacy Policy for how we handle personal data.

Intellectual property

Content on this website (text, imagery, branding) belongs to us or is used with permission of Operators and may not be reproduced without consent.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of Malta. Disputes are subject to the jurisdiction of the Maltese courts, without prejudice to mandatory consumer protections in your country of residence.
