Faraway Yachting Co. Ltd., a leading name in luxury yacht charters based in Phuket, has been honored with the 2025 World Luxury Travel Award for Best Yacht Charter Company in Thailand. The company is also the smallest operator to win this award in the past 19 years, marking a major milestone for both Faraway Yachting and Thailand’s marine tourism sector.
In just three years since Faraway Yachting was acquired by its new owners, Nuttakarn and her husband Florian, the company has undergone a powerful transformation. With both owners working “together at the rudder,” Faraway Yachting has upgraded its fleet, improved crew training, enhanced communication standards, and strengthened its guest-experience philosophy — all contributing to over 800 five-star reviews and national recognition as Thailand’s top yacht charter operator.
“This award reflects the extraordinary teamwork behind every charter,” said Florian. “We have always believed that if we deliver unmatched experiences for our guests, success will follow — and this award proves that.”
Winning the Thailand category also qualifies Faraway Yachting for the 2026 Worldwide Competition, where national winners compete for global titles. The company plans to enter the competition with even higher service standards, expanded sustainability practices, and continued improvements in guest experience.
Faraway Yachting specializes in private day and overnight charters to iconic destinations such as the Phi Phi Islands, Racha Islands, Phang Nga Bay, the Similan Islands, the remote Butang Archipelago, and other stunning islands along the way. The company operates six premium sailing and power catamarans, known for outstanding comfort, safety, and personalized service.
