As we watched the stars arrive at the Cannes Film Festival and enjoy the Monaco Grand Prix from their eye-wateringly expensive superyachts, it was hard not to envy the luxury lifestyle.
Although, this out-of-pocket raffle could just be the answer to the ultimate VIP treatment—the only catch is, there's just one day left to enter the first prize draw.
Superyacht season is upon us, and celebrities from Rihanna to Kylie Jenner, Maya Jama, and, of course, billionaire businessman Jeff Bezos have all been gallivanting around Europe aboard their luxury boats.

According to Forbes, Rihanna's sea escape for Cannes this year alone was breaking the bank at €350,000 per week, while Kylie Jenner's holiday was rumoured to cost half a million dollars. It proves this is a holiday made for the elite, and the elite only.
Except, if luck is on your side, there's a chance you could live this luxury life for a week without the hefty price tag. A new charity raffle, following in the footsteps of the likes of Omaze, is now offering everyday people the chance to travel like money is no object but Time is running out for the first raffle, with final entries due by July 31.
Anchord is hosting a raffle every single month that sees a lucky winner and five friends board an all-inclusive yacht for a week at sea, and tickets are a far cry away from the millions celebs are forking out. With online entries starting at just £10, this unique raffle has opened up a whole new world for the wanderlust.
The experience includes flights, a week of sailing on the yacht, and a 24-hour crew waiting on your every beck and call. Not to mention, top-tier dining from a private chef and water activities, so you can get as adventurous as you like on the water.
As the months go on, its winners will set sail in tune with the celebrity calendar, from the yachting season in the Mediterranean to the Caribbean for those dreamy winter escapes. This month’s grand prize destination is Greece, specifically Athens, where turquoise waters and sun-drenched coastlines await.
When you buy a ticket, you have the choice to buy a single entry for a mere £10, make a bulk purchase, or even get a subscription, opting you in for automatic entries each month. Offline, for future entries, there’s also a free postal entry option available, with each entry helping to support Anchord's chosen charity.

Through regular donations the Yacht raffle aims to support Naomi House & Jacksplace, a children's charity whose work supports life-limiting and threatening illnesses in both children and young adults.
Anchord's website states: "Your entry helps guarantee a generous donation to Naomi House Hospice, where nursing and medical staff provide individualised nursing care that helps to enhance short lives and allows local families to make the most of their precious time with their children."
Instead of scrolling Instagram with envy at the Kardashian superyacht vacations, it might bode well to bin off this week's lottery tickets and swap them for a raffle ticket like no other.
