Golondrina
per person
OVERVIEW
Key Features:
- Budget option with excellent itineraries
- Fully air-conditioned
Overview:
The Golondrina is a small motor yacht that accommodates up to 16 passengers in eight double cabins with bunk beds. Every cabin features its own private facilities with hot water and the yacht is fully air-conditioned. The social areas include a dining room, a living room with TV, DVD and music system, a bar and the sun deck. Snorkel equipment and wetsuit are available for rent on board.
As a tourist yacht, the Golondrina does not offer a lot of comfort but it offers very good itineraries that will take you even to the farthest islands of the archipelago. This makes the M/Y Golondrina an excellent option for travelers with a limited budget.
