Luxury Yacht Rentals in Cancun

What makes a yacht a luxury yacht

Size is the start, not the definition. From about 55 ft a yacht has an enclosed saloon with air conditioning where guests can sit out of the sun, a galley or full kitchen, one or more cabins and a bathroom, a flybridge or a wide upper deck, and a swim platform at the stern. Names on this list include Azimut, Ferretti, Sunseeker, Fairline, Sea Ray and Hatteras. Some list a TV, Wi-Fi, a bartender, and on the largest a chef and a jacuzzi on deck. The card lists what each yacht has.

Captain and crew

Every Cancun charter comes with its captain and crew. The captain plans the route, chooses the anchorage and decides when the sea is right; the crew handles the lines, sets out the drinks and the food, looks after the swimmers and keeps the yacht tidy during the day. On the larger yachts there is more crew, and some carry a bartender, a chef or a tour guide.

What is included, and what to add

Each boat card is the price for the hours you choose, with the captain, the crew and the fuel. Most yachts also carry water, sodas, ice, snorkel gear and life jackets, and many carry beer, floating mats and paddle boards.

Catering, decorations, a photographer or a drone, a jet ski at the swim stop, and a van from the hotel are add-ons on many yachts. Each one shows its price on the booking page, and it is added to the charter when you book the boat. The list is on Cancun yacht services.

Island days, celebrations and sunsets

A luxury yacht turns the Isla Mujeres day into a slow one: the crossing in air-conditioned comfort, a long swim off Playa Norte, lunch at the table, and the ride back on the flybridge. The route is on the Isla Mujeres yacht trip from Cancun. The same yachts host milestone birthdays, anniversaries, client days and proposals; the occasions are on Cancun yacht proposals and Cancun corporate yacht charters.

Bigger than 99 ft: mega yachts

At the top of the Cancun fleet are a few yachts of 100 to 120 ft, with full crews, more cabins and, on some, a jacuzzi, a chef and kayaks. They are on Cancun mega yacht rentals.

What a luxury yacht costs in Cancun

The card on each yacht is the full charter for the hours you choose: the yacht, the captain, the crew and the fuel. The price moves with the length, the age and the hours; compare the cards above for your date. A 50% deposit paid online holds the boat; the balance is paid in person on the day.

Rental or charter?

In Cancun the two words mean the same thing here: a private yacht with its captain and crew, for your group alone, for a set number of hours. Nobody drives the yacht themselves, and no other group shares it, whatever the day or the season. The hours are chosen when you book.
