For all fans of sailing holidays, a new website that connects professional skippers with travellers eager to experience the open sea without worrying about any organisational aspects, has been launched.
Antlos was born to make sailing holidays accessible to those who love the sea but due to lack of experience and high costs have never managed to set sail. For private boat owners, it is an opportunity to turn their passion into business and cover boat maintenance costs by hosting guests on board.
Much like Airbnb, Antlos provides direct contact between hosts and guests. Every skipper can publish several listings and be contacted by registered users willing to book a vacation directly from them. Guests can choose from different destinations across the Mediterranean and various activities to tailor their all-inclusive vacation (relaxed cruising on a motor yacht or classical gulet, active racing on a speedboat or sailboat, fishing trips, wakeboarding, snorkelling, etc.) and safely pay online via credit card, Paypal or bank wire transfer.
The business model of Antlos is inspired by the philosophy of sharing-economy, offering a real opportunity for users to start earning from the rental of their boat without having to pay commissions to any agencies.
Thanks to a simple and intuitive booking system, clients can book their holidays with the peace of mind given by flexible cancellation and insurance policies, transparent terms of refunds, and a dedicated customer service.
Happy sailing!
