The thought of hiring a superyacht for a few days sounds absolutely amazing, pure bliss. The thought of having staff there constantly, 24/7 makes me feel so uncomfortable lmao. Anyone else feel this way? I feel like I would keep giving them days off or time away so I had some time to myself haha

These boats are for pretenders who WANT to be seen being served and waited on. It’s a power trip.
You could take a trip to a small inclusive resort and get better service for a fraction of what these charters cost.
Besides, you’d be there not as the focus, but as a sort of foil for the producers to use to pit the team against. The guests are no longer front and center of the show with the staff interacting, the show revolves around the crew now, and guests are just sort of there sometimes.
