Maressa
A yacht moored at sunset

A house builton the water

Independent since 1998, with offices in Monaco, Palma and Antigua.

Maressa began with one yacht, one captain and a simple idea: that the people on board matter more than the size of the boat. Twenty-eight summers later, it still guides every voyage we arrange.

No shareholders.
Only guests.

We are privately owned and answer to nobody but our clients. That means honest advice, even when the honest answer is a smaller yacht.
