Jeanneau 54 Totufo – Five-Cabin Yacht Hire from Marina del Sur

Description

Totufo suits a group that wants a proper sailing holiday without squeezing everyone into identical cabins. Four double cabins and one bunk-bed cabin make the layout useful for couples travelling with family or friends, while heating, air conditioning and a well-equipped galley add everyday comfort on board.

Jeanneau 54 Totufo is a 16.16-metre sailing yacht built in 2023 and based at Marina del Sur in Las Galletas, southern Tenerife. Operated by ECC Yacht, it combines a five-cabin sleeping layout with practical deck and interior facilities for a group planning time under sail.

Four double cabins sleep eight guests and a separate bunk-bed cabin accommodates two more, giving ten listed berths in total. There are three bathrooms with showers. Unlike a yacht with dedicated guest and crew accommodation, no separate skipper berth is identified in the supplier's layout, so a group hiring a professional skipper should check how that affects the remaining sleeping places and total permitted occupancy.

On deck, Totufo has a bimini for shade, sun pads, a teak deck and a bathing platform. Navigation and sailing equipment includes a classic mainsail, autopilot, radar, outside GPS plotter and bow thruster. A generator supports the onboard electrical equipment. Below deck, the supplier lists both heating and air conditioning, as well as a fridge, cooker, oven, dishwasher and sink. A dinghy is listed, but the outboard engine is a separately priced extra rather than part of the standard package.

ECC Yacht lists both bareboat hire for a suitably qualified captain and an optional professional skipper. Bareboat customers must have their valid sailing licence and experience accepted by the charter company before booking. If you would rather leave the sailing to a professional, ask about the skipper option and the resulting guest and cabin arrangements. Share your travel dates, group size and preferred charter mode to request a precise offer.

Why choose this yacht

The combination of a 2023 build, four double cabins and a separate bunk-bed cabin suits mixed groups of couples and family members. Air conditioning, heating, a dishwasher and a spacious deck layout provide useful comfort between sailing days, while radar, autopilot and a bow thruster support handling on the water.

Who is this yacht for?

Four couples travelling together, or a larger family group that can make use of the two bunk berths. Ten sleeping places are listed, but hiring a skipper may reduce the berths available to paying guests; confirm the final permitted passenger and overnight capacity with ECC Yacht.

What to expect

A modern Jeanneau 54 with a classic mainsail, radar, outside GPS plotter, autopilot, bimini, generator and a galley suitable for preparing meals. Independent charter and a paid skipper option are both listed, subject to the operator's confirmation of qualification and availability.

Before you go

The indicative charter rate starts at €638 per day. Mandatory extras are the final-cleaning/transit-log charge of €240 per rental, a gas cylinder at €30 per rental, and a tourist tax listed at €20 per person per week; ask ECC Yacht how the weekly tax is applied to shorter bookings. A separate refundable security deposit of €5,000 per rental is required under the supplier's terms; it is not a non-refundable fee. An optional professional skipper costs €215 per day. Bed linen is offered for €15 per person and towels for €6 per person; the dinghy engine costs €95 per rental. Deposit insurance is listed at €365 per rental, but the source does not specify whether it reduces the deposit or by how much. Confirm that insurance's terms before selecting it, as well as fuel, mooring charges, skipper accommodation, the final guest count and the total payable. Bareboat charter is subject to ECC Yacht accepting the captain's sailing qualifications.

Practical tips

Totufo is based at Marina del Sur in Las Galletas, Tenerife. For a daily charter, the supplier lists collection from 09:00 to 10:00 and return between 17:00 and 18:00; longer bookings use different handover arrangements. Many optional extras and the mandatory service charges are shown as cash-only on site, while the refundable deposit is listed as payable by cash or debit/credit card. Check the actual berth, documentation required, payment methods and linen selection before departure.
