Accommodation for Up to 34 Guests
Following the latest configuration update, RIVA accommodates up to 34 guests across 16 en-suite cabins. The flexible combination of Double, Twin and Triple accommodation makes her particularly effective for multi-generational families and larger mixed groups.
12 Double Cabins
Twelve Double cabins are distributed across the upper, main and lower decks, providing comfortable private accommodation for couples.
2 Twin Cabins
Two Twin cabins provide separate-bed accommodation for friends, children or guests who prefer individual sleeping arrangements.
2 Triple Cabins
Two Triple cabins combine a Double and Single bed, providing the two additional berths that increase total sleeping capacity to thirty-four guests.
Redesigned for the Current Charter Programme
RIVA enters her latest charter programme with a significantly redesigned sundeck and reduced cabin count, shifting the focus from maximum accommodation capacity toward stronger onboard lifestyle and entertainment facilities.
The former uppermost guest cabin has been removed from the accommodation plan, creating space for a new fitness and cinema area. A dedicated bar and grill further expands the yacht’s open-air entertainment options.
The result is a sixteen-cabin configuration for up to thirty-four guests, while retaining RIVA’s large sundeck Jacuzzi and generous communal spaces.
Living Areas & Entertainment
RIVA’s generous 48-metre platform provides substantial communal space for a large charter party. Her redesigned sundeck is the centre of outdoor life aboard, while multiple dining and lounge areas give guests room to spread out throughout the day.
Built Around Large Private Groups
RIVA provides the accommodation capacity of a boutique private cruiser while maintaining the privacy and flexibility of a dedicated yacht charter.
Sixteen cabins and twelve professional crew members allow larger groups to remain together aboard one yacht while still benefiting from dedicated culinary, service, housekeeping, engineering and deck teams.
She is especially suitable for family reunions, celebrations, corporate retreats and private group programmes where accommodation capacity and communal space are equally important.
Adriatic Cruising
RIVA typically cruises at approximately 9 knots, an efficient speed for island-hopping throughout Croatia’s Dalmatian coast.
Current charter terms include fuel for approximately four hours of cruising per day, allowing itineraries to combine comfortable daily passages with extended periods at anchor and time ashore.
Tender & Water Toys
RIVA carries a varied activity programme suitable for families and larger charter groups.
Jet Ski
A Jet Ski provides a high-energy option for appropriately licensed guests, subject to local regulations.
2 Sea Scooters
Two underwater sea scooters provide another way to explore Croatia’s clear-water anchorages.
4 Paddleboards
Four stand-up paddleboards allow several guests to explore sheltered bays together.
2 Kayaks
Two kayaks provide a quieter option for visiting beaches and nearby coves.
Water Ski & Wakeboard
Water skiing and wakeboarding provide tender-supported activities for active guests.
Ringo Ride
A Ringo towable adds another family-friendly activity to the yacht’s leisure inventory.
Water-toy inventories can change between charter periods. Jet Ski, water skiing, wakeboarding and other powered activities remain subject to local regulations, licences, weather conditions and fuel charges settled through the APA.
RIVA Yacht Charter in Croatia
RIVA is primarily based in Split, Croatia and operates private charters throughout the Croatian Adriatic.
Popular routes can include Split, Brač, Hvar, Vis, Korčula, Mljet and Dubrovnik. Northern itineraries toward Šibenik, Kornati and Zadar can also be arranged, while Split–Dubrovnik one-way programmes work particularly well for larger groups.
Her sixteen-cabin configuration makes RIVA particularly valuable for private groups who would otherwise need to divide their guests between multiple smaller vessels.
