When you have half a million to spend on a holiday you can clearly set your sights a little higher than a budget package deal.
And Cara Delevingne and Rihanna have done just that, blowing £300,000 on hiring a super-yacht to ferry them around the French Riviera, with a further £200,000 set aside for restaurant and nightclub bills.
The pair, who have developed a close friendship in recent months, will follow the fortnight with a long weekend in Barbados to recuperate.

But until then they look set to party as hard as they can, as they cruise along the Mediterranean coastline on board a mega yacht.

Singer Rihanna, 25, appeared to be showing Miss Delevingne, 20, the correct technique for chasing the shot with a segment of lemon and the model was rarely to be seen without a drink on her hand.
As the day progressed she appeared to take quite a shine to one of the men on board, slapping his backside and massaging his head as they showered together.
And diving into the sea she rode on jet skis and rubber rings pulled by speedboats while Rihanna lounged on inflatables and smoked what looked to be an electronic cigarette.
Photographs of the young celebrities aboard their party boat emerged just days after it transpired that Miss Delevingne had struck up a friendship with troubled rock star Pete Doherty, a former boyfriend of Kate Moss.

The model of the moment, whose raucous lifestyle has earned her the nickname the ‘new Kate Moss’, has hinted in the past that she would like to move into the music industry.
And Doherty, formerly of indie band The Libertines, is said to have become ‘besotted’ by her since meeting her in February.
A source told a fashion magazine: ‘Pete thought Cara was amazing and so beautiful. Afterwards, he asked a friend to pass on a message and his number. Everyone was a bit unsure about it - he’s certainly got a bad-boy reputation - but he was really insistent.
‘Cara took ages to reply, but she’s a big Libertines fan, so once she did get in touch, they talked about his days with the band.
‘Cara plays the drums, so Pete invited her round to his house in Wiltshire to play together.’
News of the pairing comes within weeks of Miss Delevingne, who is the face of Burberry, being spotted dropping a suspect-looking bag of white powder outside her home in Belgravia, London.
The new best friends appear to be making the most of their break away together, with both drinking shots aboard the luxury yacht
Rihanna wore her long honeyed hair flowing loosely around her shoulders and sported a sexy one-piece - as well of course as her trademark bling
Photographs of the incident added to growing concern about the young model’s health, after she was seen falling down some steps after a night out during London Fashion Week.
And her rumoured friendship with Doherty is just the latest cause for alarm.
The source added: ‘It’ll be a disaster for Cara if she hooks up with Pete. Cara’s mum - a recovering heroin addict herself - and sisters must be furious about it.
‘They’re bound to be worried about her constant partying and Pete’s not exactly clean living.’
It was during Fashion Week that Miss Delevingne, who is best friends with singer Rita Ora, 22, secured her friendship with Rihanna, 25, joining her to celebrate the launch of her River Island clothing range.

The singer encouraged Miss Delevingne to get her first tattoo, a lion’s head on her finger, and she has since gone on to have the letters ‘CJD’ inked on her forearm.
Yesterday she appeared to have added a third to her collection after Tweeting a picture of the words ‘made in England’ written on the sole of her foot.
Last month a source said of her upcoming holiday with Rihanna: ‘They’re going to rent a yacht in the south of France at the end of August, when Rihanna has a two-week break in her tour, and then fly out to the Caribbean.
‘It will be no-holds barred and they’re spending more than half a million on the yacht rental and on going to top clubs and restaurants.
‘It’ll be non-stop booze and they are already saying they’re not going to get much sleep — maybe a couple of hours each night.
‘They plan to relax when they get to Barbados.’
