CREW
Jannika grew up in the lake district in Finland, but was drawn to the ocean at an early age. After some years working around the world in various hospitality management positions and as a diving teacher, she decided to move on sailboats. She has then skippered various boats and been involved in all aspects of sailing industry -from teaching to racing, to delivering yachts and running charters, sailing monohulls and catamarans and taking part for new build and refit projects. After spending some years in the Caribbean and sailing on both coasts of the North American continent, she has returned to the warm Mediterranean summer waters. Jannika thrives to ensure safe and enjoyable time on board for her guests and loves to show them life on the water. Her eye for detail, sailing knowledge and passion to the ocean and sailing will guarantee a lovely time on Aini. Jannika has been involved with project Aini from the beginning of the launch in early September 2025. She holds commercially endorsed RYA Yacht Master Ocean qualification. When not sailing, Jannika enjoys diving, freediving, surfing, kitesurfing, running, hiking, spending time in nature and photographing her surroundings. She speaks Finnish as her native language, fluent English and intermediate Spanish
Laura found her way to sailing after a successful 20-year career in Project Management and has since embraced life at sea, sailing over 23,755 nautical miles across the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian Oceans, as well as the Mediterranean. She grew up in South Africa with Italian heritage, and has always been influenced by different cultures, cuisines and traditions. Laura’s passion lies in creating delicious, healthy and beautifully presented meals for her guests. Her cooking style is inspired by Mediterranean and Italian cuisine, with a focus on fresh seafood, seasonal ingredients, homemade sourdough bread and dishes tailored to guests’ individual preferences and dietary requirements. Drawing on her Italian heritage, Laura’s homemade tiramisu has become a signature dessert and a favourite among guests. Her professional background has given Laura an excellent eye for detail, strong organisational skills and a calm, solutions-focused approach. She takes pride in going the extra mile and ensuring guests feel welcomed, relaxed and well cared for throughout their time on board. Laura brings a warm and positive personality to the yacht and enjoys meeting people from different cultures. She speaks English fluently, with conversational French, Italian and Afrikaans. When not on board, Laura enjoys swimming, scuba diving, spending time in nature, hiking, yoga, meditation, dancing and exploring new places.
Frequently Asked Questions
When is the best time to charter a yacht in Sardinia?
The Sardinia yacht charter season typically runs from May through October, with July and August offering the warmest weather and liveliest atmosphere. Many experienced charter guests prefer June and September, when you'll enjoy warm temperatures, excellent swimming conditions, fewer crowds, and greater yacht availability. Whether you're looking for vibrant beach clubs, peaceful anchorages, or the best value, we can help you choose the ideal time for your charter.
Should I charter a catamaran or a motor yacht in Sardinia?
For most families and groups, a luxury crewed catamaran offers the best balance of comfort, stability, and value. Its shallow draft allows access to secluded beaches and crystal-clear anchorages throughout the La Maddalena Archipelago and along Sardinia's spectacular coastline.A motor yacht is better suited to guests who want to cover greater distances, enjoy premium onboard amenities, or combine Sardinia with destinations such as southern Corsica during the same itinerary. The best choice depends on your budget, group size, and preferred style of cruising, and we're happy to help you compare the options.
Can I visit Corsica during a Sardinia yacht charter?
Yes. One of Sardinia's greatest advantages is its proximity to southern Corsica. Many crewed yacht charters include destinations such as Bonifacio alongside Costa Smeralda and the La Maddalena Archipelago, allowing you to experience two incredible Mediterranean cruising grounds in a single holiday. Your captain will recommend the best itinerary based on your yacht, charter duration, and weather conditions.
How far in advance should I book a Sardinia yacht charter?
For the widest choice of yachts, we recommend booking 6 to 12 months in advance, especially if you're planning to travel during July, August, or other peak holiday periods. Sardinia is one of Europe's most popular luxury yacht charter destinations, and the best catamarans, motor yachts, and superyachts are often reserved many months ahead. Booking early gives you the best selection, preferred travel dates, and greater itinerary flexibility.
Do I need sailing experience for a crewed yacht charter in Sardinia?
No. A crewed yacht charter is designed to be completely effortless. Your professional captain takes care of navigation, route planning, docking, and safety, while the chef and crew handle every aspect of your onboard experience, from gourmet dining to daily service and water sports. Whether it's your first yacht charter or you're an experienced charter guest, you can simply relax and enjoy Sardinia from the water.
Are food, fuel, and drinks included in the charter price?
It depends on the yacht you choose. Many luxury catamarans operate on an all-inclusive basis, where meals, standard beverages, crew, and fuel for the planned itinerary are included in the charter rate. Most motor yachts and superyachts operate on a plus-expenses basis using an Advance Provisioning Allowance (APA), which covers items such as fuel, food, beverages, and marina fees. We'll explain exactly what's included before you book, so there are no surprises.
Why book my Sardinia yacht charter through a charter broker?
Working with an independent yacht charter broker gives you access to the entire charter market rather than the fleet of a single operator. We compare hundreds of verified yachts, provide honest advice, and help you find the yacht that best matches your group, budget, and travel dates. Our recommendations are based on firsthand industry knowledge, crew feedback, and charter experience, and our service comes at no additional cost, as broker commissions are already included in the published charter rates.
