Overview

Charter Tranquila

Step aboard Tranquila, a stunning 2024 Fountaine Pajot Samana 59 making her debut in the British Virgin Islands for the 2025/2026 charter season. Never before offered for charter, she has only seen a few weeks of private owner use and remains in pristine, showroom condition — a true first-time charter experience. Purpose-built for comfort and connection, Tranquila is where modern design meets effortless relaxation — a sanctuary at sea where every detail invites you to unwind and enjoy island life at its best.

Spacious and beautifully designed, Tranquila offers an open-concept layout that blurs the lines between interior and exterior living. The expansive salon flows seamlessly onto the aft deck, creating a single inviting space to dine, socialize, or simply take in the Caribbean breeze. The flybridge provides panoramic views and a perfect setting for sunset cocktails, while the forward deck’s generous lounging area is the ideal spot to bask in the sun or gaze at the stars.

Inside, the atmosphere is bright and refined, with contemporary finishes, elegant furnishings, and a fully equipped galley where your chef will prepare fresh, memorable meals. Whether enjoying a quiet morning coffee, an alfresco dinner, or a day full of adventure on the water, Tranquila offers the perfect balance of style and serenity.

Accommodating up to eight guests in four ensuite queen cabins — including a master suite offering double the space of a standard guest cabin — Tranquila ensures both comfort and privacy. The starboard forepeak can also be made available for children or teens at an additional cost; please inquire for details. With Starlink internet, a multi-zone sound system, and a curated selection of water toys and leisure amenities, every detail has been designed to elevate your time aboard.
From the moment you step on deck, Tranquila invites you to slow down, breathe, and discover the art of truly relaxed luxury — now available for the very first charter season.

For an even closer look at Tranquila, we invite you to visit our Instagram page: @tranquilayachting, where we share additional photos and videos of the yacht, including our “Meet Tranquila” series — a guided tour of the yacht one area at a time — along with our “day in the life on charter” series, offering a glimpse into the real experience of being on board in the British Virgin Islands.

Crew

Meet Your Crew

Tranquila crew

Francesca and Matteo are a couple from northern Italy who left land life for the sea. They now bring a unique blend of sailing expertise, culinary talent, and local knowledge to every charter aboard Tranquila. Both licensed captains (RYA/MCA Yachtmaster) and graduates of the renowned Ashburton Chefs Academy, they seamlessly combine navigation and gourmet dining to create experiences where guests can simply relax and enjoy every moment.

Having lived and worked in the British Virgin Islands for years, they know the islands intimately — from hidden coves and pristine beaches to the best local provisioning spots. Their favorite destinations include Anegada, Guana Island, and the iconic waters of Gorda Sound and White Bay. With many years on charter and private vessels, multiple Atlantic crossings, and more than 30,000 nautical miles logged, Francesca and Matteo ensure guests feel safe and completely at ease, confident that every detail is expertly handled.

Their passion for sailing began with a bold leap: having been on a boat only a few times, they sailed from Croatia to South Africa on a stranger’s catamaran. That journey sparked a lifelong love of life at sea, to the point that they still live on a catamaran today.

Culinary experiences aboard Tranquila are carefully crafted to delight every guest. Francesca and Matteo specialize in Italian and Mediterranean cuisine while also offering Caribbean, Asian, and Mexican-inspired dishes. They create custom menus tailored to dietary preferences and requirements and pair meals with carefully selected wines, ensuring dining is effortless, memorable, and fully enjoyed without worry.

Passionate about water sports and exploration, they love sharing their skills and organizing activities ranging from paddleboarding and snorkeling to sunset cocktails and lively karaoke nights. Fluent in English, Spanish, French, and Italian, they foster a friendly and relaxed atmosphere, where guests can fully immerse themselves in the experience without having to think about a thing.
Sit back, let Francesca and Matteo handle every detail, and enjoy la bella vita on Tranquila!

Tranquila Charter - April 2026, BVI

Dear Matteo & Francesca, 

What a fantastic trip! Each day was filled with beautiful views, delicious food and unforgettable experiences. You made us all feel at home, especially the kids. They adored every one of your amazing meals, each fun activity and all of the gorgeous white sand beaches. 
Thank you for the tubing, the lobster and the laughs. On top of everything special you did for us, I can't thank you enough for the impromptu Easter Bunny scavenger hunt. How thoughtful of you to make sure the Easter Bunny could make it onboard with candies and treats. I could not have imagined a more magical trip. And did I mention the food!!! Every single bite was better than the last. The carbonara, the risotto, the panna cotta, the crème brûlée. We loved every bite. This trip couldn't have been any better. 
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! 

All the best, 
Neal and Natalie, 
Emma, Charlie and Aiden

Can I customize my itinerary?

How far in advance should I book?

Luxury yachts are often reserved several months in advance, especially during peak seasons. Early booking provides the best selection and pricing.

Do I need sailing experience?

Can you recommend similar yachts?

Absolutely. If this yacht isn't the perfect match, our charter experts can recommend similar yachts based on your budget, group size, destination, and preferred amenities.

Which destinations can this yacht visit?
