Istion Yachting Rhodes

I have extensive chartering experience and I can say that Istion base on Rhodes is very well organized and really top! Our boat was in very good condition (despite being 4 years old) and check-in was very early and efficient. I don't think we could ever leave the harbour on Saturday so early as this time. No technical problems during the charter and quick and simple check-out on arrival. All base staff is very kind and helpful. Great job Manolis and the team! I am already looking forward to our next charter from Rhodes with Istion.

We chartered an Oceanis 48 yacht named Anita through Istion for one week, from September 13 to September 20, 2025. Our crew consisted of five friends, so we had plenty of space on the boat. Starting from Rhodes Town, we began our trip northward to the island of Symi, continuing on to Nisyros and Tilos. After a stop in Lindos, we finally made our way back toward the home port. During our journey, Anita never let us down. You can see signs of her age and some wear from the season here and there, but overall Anita is still in very good condition. We had no serious reasons for complaints. The boat was great. The real highlight of our trip—besides the breathtaking nature and scenery—was without a doubt the people we met. In particular, the team at Istion. In the ten years I’ve been able to join charter trips, I have never experienced such friendly and helpful people. This deserves every thumbs-up I can give. It will remain by far the most positive memory I take with me. Thank you for that. Keep up the great work!!!!

We had the most amazing sailing trip with Istion around Rhodes and the nearby islands of Symi, Tilos, and Chalki. The scenery was absolutely stunning, with crystal waters, charming harbors, and plenty of space to cover bigger distances comfortably. A special thanks to Philip, Christois, and Manous, who took incredible care of us throughout the journey. They were professional, knowledgeable, and always went the extra mile to make sure we felt safe, relaxed, and able to enjoy every moment. From helping us discover hidden coves to making sure the boat was in perfect condition, everything was seamless. This was easily one of the best holiday experiences we’ve ever had, and we can’t wait to sail with Istion again. Highly recommended to anyone wanting to explore the Dodecanese by sea!

This has by far been the best sailing trip we’ve been on over the past 12 years!! Beautiful islands, an amazing company to charter from, amazing boat and , and the extra mile that all of the staff went was absolutely unbelievable, and it made the trip x10 more enjoyable. A special shoutout Phillipe (Spanish spelling 😂) ,Christoph and Manos (sorry for spelling) thank you so much guys. Get yourselves to Ireland ❤️❤️

⭐️A⭐️M⭐️A⭐️Z⭐️I⭐️N⭐️G This was our first yacht charter holiday but it definitely won’t be the last! From the moment we set foot on the boat we loved every single second of it. Our skipper, Patrick, was perfect - friendly, informative, professional and generous. He took us to the most beautiful secluded coves, recommended and booked us into amazing tavernas, and so much more. As it was our first time trying a holiday like this we had a very small worry that we might hate it but there was absolutely no need for that worry, Patrick eased us in at the beginning to see how we liked it and went from there. I’m pretty sure we may have told him a few times how much we were loving it, and honestly, each day just got better and better. Thank you so much to Istion Yachting, and of course Patrick. We cannot wait until next time! ⚓️ 🩵

Five stars for sure. Chartered a catamaran with Philip as the skipper. Great experience for me and my young kids. Philip showed us great places. We always felt safe. The boat and the service in general was a good quality. No complaints.

We booked an Istion Catamaran with Kristi as Skipper and Dimitra as our hostess and we really had the best week ever. They recommended a great route and we were really lucky with the weather and enjoyed every single stop. We felt really safe and had the best food on board 😍
