I have extensive chartering experience and I can say that Istion base on Rhodes is very well organized and really top! Our boat was in very good condition (despite being 4 years old) and check-in was very early and efficient. I don't think we could ever leave the harbour on Saturday so early as this time. No technical problems during the charter and quick and simple check-out on arrival. All base staff is very kind and helpful. Great job Manolis and the team! I am already looking forward to our next charter from Rhodes with Istion.
We chartered an Oceanis 48 yacht named Anita through Istion for one week, from September 13 to September 20, 2025. Our crew consisted of five friends, so we had plenty of space on the boat. Starting from Rhodes Town, we began our trip northward to the island of Symi, continuing on to Nisyros and Tilos. After a stop in Lindos, we finally made our way back toward the home port. During our journey, Anita never let us down. You can see signs of her age and some wear from the season here and there, but overall Anita is still in very good condition. We had no serious reasons for complaints. The boat was great. The real highlight of our trip—besides the breathtaking nature and scenery—was without a doubt the people we met. In particular, the team at Istion. In the ten years I’ve been able to join charter trips, I have never experienced such friendly and helpful people. This deserves every thumbs-up I can give. It will remain by far the most positive memory I take with me. Thank you for that. Keep up the great work!!!!
We had the most amazing sailing trip with Istion around Rhodes and the nearby islands of Symi, Tilos, and Chalki. The scenery was absolutely stunning, with crystal waters, charming harbors, and plenty of space to cover bigger distances comfortably. A special thanks to Philip, Christois, and Manous, who took incredible care of us throughout the journey. They were professional, knowledgeable, and always went the extra mile to make sure we felt safe, relaxed, and able to enjoy every moment. From helping us discover hidden coves to making sure the boat was in perfect condition, everything was seamless. This was easily one of the best holiday experiences we’ve ever had, and we can’t wait to sail with Istion again. Highly recommended to anyone wanting to explore the Dodecanese by sea!
This has by far been the best sailing trip we’ve been on over the past 12 years!! Beautiful islands, an amazing company to charter from, amazing boat and , and the extra mile that all of the staff went was absolutely unbelievable, and it made the trip x10 more enjoyable.
