SERENISSIMA II | Luxury Crewed Motor Yacht

On SERENISSIMA II, your time in Croatia and Montenegro is guided by Captain Filip Bohinec, whose entire career has been built around understanding yachts, guests, and the sea. His journey from founding his own charter company to captaining crewed yachts across the Mediterranean means he approaches each charter as a bespoke project, not just a route between ports. Working closely with First Officer Blaž Zupancic, whose licenses and global navigation experience anchor the yacht’s safety culture, and Bosun Rene Ristovski, who has progressed from watersports centers to superyachts, Filip ensures that every maneuver, anchorage, and late-night arrival feels relaxed, secure, and well timed.

In the heart of the yacht, the kitchen and dining areas become the stage for Chef Matteo Puccini’s culinary craft. With 20-plus years in high-end kitchens and charter environments, he excels at reading the table, adjusting menus from light to indulgent, from classically Italian to globally inspired, always balancing flavor and presentation. Chief Stewardess Olena Pankratova translates this into experiences, coordinating table settings, service, and timing so that meals feel like events framed by Adriatic views. Whether you are watching the sun rise over an anchorage in Croatia or set behind Montenegro’s hills, your daily dining spree on SERENISSIMA II quickly becomes one of the highlights of the journey.

Beyond dining, the broader crew ensures that life on board runs with quiet efficiency and a human touch. Stewardess Mariia Holovko brings the polish of ultra-luxury hospitality and royal service to every cabin and lounge, making sure everything you touch feels fresh and thoughtfully arranged. On deck, Nejc Mlinšek and Rene take care of watersports and exterior details, using Nejc’s extensive background in nautical tourism and adrenaline sports to guide you through swim sessions, wakeboarding, and tender adventures. In the engine room, Chief Engineer Oleksandr Rachenok’s merchant fleet training keeps the technical side of SERENISSIMA II running seamlessly, so your focus stays on the shifting coastline of Croatia and Montenegro, not on what is happening behind the scenes.

7-Day Sample Motor Yacht Charter Itinerary in Croatia and Montenegro:
Feel your Croatian escape take shape the moment you step onto the teak decks of the Mengi Yay S1 luxury crewed motor yacht SERENISSIMA II in Split, where stone facades and deep blue water set a cinematic opening scene. Over the course of a seven-day Croatia yachting itinerary, your days can drift between quiet coves perfect for underwater exploration, historic towns filled with stories, and coastal restaurants that reward curiosity with standout plates and local wines. You might start one morning snorkeling from the stern, spend the afternoon tracing old city walls, and end the night over a chef-prepared dinner on deck, letting the route between Split and Dubrovnik unfold at a comfortable, considered pace.

South of the Croatian islands, SERENISSIMA II writes a new chapter as she welcomes you back in Kotor, where mountains rise directly from the water and bays feel like private amphitheaters. Once the lines leave the dock, your Montenegro yachting itinerary reveals itself as a chain of bright-water anchorages, scenic passages through narrow channels, and visits to coastal towns that hold onto their old-world charm. One day might be shaped around long swims and relaxed hours on the sun deck, the next around slow walks along stone streets and lingering in waterfront cafés. When your charter ends, Croatia and Montenegro stay in your mind as one continuous Adriatic journey anchored by the same familiar yacht.

As summer temperatures rise, SERENISSIMA II shifts her focus toward Greece, inviting you to experience another facet of the Mediterranean under the same polished level of care. Whether you join her among Croatian islands, Montenegrin bays, or Greek archipelagos, the Boatbookings team works hand in hand with your crew to adjust each day in real time, from slow, sun-drenched mornings on deck to shore excursions scheduled at just the right moment. Wherever you choose to cruise, the itinerary feels tailored, not templated.

Overview:
Some yachts blend into the horizon, but SERENISSIMA II has a way of anchoring your attention, the Mengi Yay S1 luxury motor yacht standing confidently against the blues and greens of the Adriatic between Croatia and Montenegro. Her lines are contemporary, yet her spirit is all about unhurried enjoyment, with a layout that supports both spontaneous gatherings and quiet retreats. You notice the way seating, shade, and sightlines are arranged not just for looks, but for how people actually move through a day. Whether you are in a swimsuit, linen, or evening wear, SERENISSIMA II feels ready for whatever you decide the next few hours should hold.

Your mornings often start with a sense of arrival rather than departure, particularly when breakfast is laid out on the expansive aft deck and the skyline of Split or the old stones of Dubrovnik slowly recede into the background. As the sun climbs, the sundeck becomes your Adriatic rooftop, with plush lounges inviting you to linger, a jacuzzi providing a warm counterpoint to the cool sea, and bronzing areas that make it very easy to lose track of time. Some afternoons lead you toward Hvar or into one of Montenegro’s dramatic bays for local dishes served under pastel skies, others keep you on board, starting the day with fresh breakfasts on the foredeck and wrapping it with a boxing session powered by sea air.

Step through the sliding doors, and a new kind of calm takes over. The sunlit saloon, framed by large windows, is where you might gather for an unhurried lunch, a movie, or a planning session for the next day’s anchorages. The sky lounge picks up in the late afternoon, inviting you to watch the changing light with a drink in hand or share stories as the coastline drifts by. For more subdued moments, the gentleman’s lounge delivers a cocoon of plush seating and premium entertainment, the kind of space that makes you forget about time zones and inboxes. When you retreat to your cabin, each ensuite room wraps you in soft light and quieter tones, ensuring you wake up fully restored.

Around you, the Adriatic offers a flexible script that you can rewrite daily. One day might center on culinary discoveries along the Dalmatian coast, with the tender shuttling you to waterfront tavernas and beach clubs before you return for a late swim and water toys. The next could be about Montenegro’s bays, with snorkeling sessions, jet-driven thrills, and tender rides up to hidden coves. Throughout, SERENISSIMA II anchors the experience, always ready for a slow breakfast, a fast ride, or a late-night conversation under the stars. You step off at the end of the charter feeling as though you did the Adriatic on your terms.
