Private Luxury Boat Day on Lake Como — Celebrity Exclusive

Lake Como’s shoreline reads like a gallery of grand villas, stone villages and steep, forested slopes. Celebrity Exclusive is a private, full-day luxury boat charter run by CS Boats s.r.l., based in Como, Lombardia, Italy. For twelve hours you have a captain and boat at your disposal to trace the lake’s glacial curve, pull up to villa steps, or pause off a cobbled quay for lunch. The experience begins with a harbor handshake; arrive at the meeting pier in Como a few minutes early and your captain will have the boat ready under your reservation’s name. From there the itinerary is entirely yours: glide past shimmering Belle Époque facades, linger at hidden hamlets like Nesso (note: swimming in Nesso is prohibited), or ask to be moored beside a lakeside restaurant. The boat remains exclusively for your party—no waiting, no transfers—ideal for families, small groups, honeymooners, or anyone who prefers a private rhythm. Lake Como itself is a deep glacial lake carved by ice and fed by mountain streams, framed by steep limestone and dolomite ridges and dotted with Mediterranean cypresses and plane trees. Wildlife includes fish-rich waters and waterfowl that follow your wake; the shorelines alternate between manicured gardens and rugged cliffs. The natural mix makes each anchor and landing feel distinct: a manicured villa garden one hour, a rustic pebble beach the next. What sets Celebrity Exclusive apart is the service model: CS Boats s.r.l. assigns a dedicated captain and reserves the vessel solely for your time, allowing spontaneous stops for photo ops, unplanned meals, or private villa visits (entrance fees not included). The operator’s policies are precise—no pets (except service animals), no glass, no onboard fishing, and swimming requires captain permission—so your day balances freedom with safety and local regulations. Practicalities: a 50% deposit confirms bookings with a refund window ending seven days prior; the remaining balance is due at embarkation. Extras such as champagne, meals, or villa entry can be arranged through the captain but are not included. Accessibility requests are welcome—contact the operator in advance. If you’re drawn to curated privacy on one of Italy’s most scenic lakes, this is a top-tier way to sample Como’s shoreline at leisure. Plan for comfortable clothing, sun protection, and a camera—the lake rewards those who travel slowly and with intention. Summer offers long sunlit hours while spring and fall bring softer light and fewer boats; winter charters are possible but require advance planning. Communicate mobility needs when you book—CS Boats s.r.l. requests notice for accessibility accommodations. Because the lake’s weather can shift, pack layers and waterproofs for sudden drizzle. Finally, leave time to sit at the stern: slow laps of water and plane trees are why people often return.
