Experience the Luxury of a Private Yacht at Playa Mujeres
If you’re dreaming of a day on the water, soaking in the sun, and exploring the stunning coast of Quintana Roo, this private yacht rental might just be your perfect escape. For $1,690 per group (up to 15 people), you’ll spend four hours aboard a beautifully refitted 55-foot Sea Ray yacht named #GMBSR55FUN, departing from Playa Mujeres Marina. This trip takes you to the vibrant Isla Mujeres, with plenty of opportunities to snorkel, swim, or simply lounge on deck.
What we really like about this experience is how customizable it is—whether you’re into snorkeling, relaxing on the boat, or enjoying scenic views, this tour adapts to your preferences. Plus, the newly refinished seating and sunbathing areas mean you’ll be traveling in comfort, not cramped in old cushions. And, of course, the complimentary beverages—including beers, sodas, water, and snacks—add a nice touch of hospitality that keeps everyone refreshed.
One potential consideration is the additional costs that might pop up, like the marina’s $15 USD per passenger fee or optional extras such as jet skis or fishing gear. For travelers seeking a straightforward, all-in-one experience, these extras may be worth it, but they’re good to be aware of beforehand.
This tour works best for groups who want a private, flexible day on the water—families, friends, or couples looking for an intimate adventure. If you appreciate comfort, personalization, and scenic beauty, this yacht trip can be a highlight of your trip to the Cancun area.

A Deep Dive Into the Playa Mujeres Private Yacht Experience

The Departure Point and Logistics

The Boat & Amenities
The vessel, a 55-foot Sea Ray yacht, is described as having been newly refinished, which means you’ll be on a boat that looks fresh and well-maintained. The spacious deck offers plenty of seating and sunning spots, perfect for lounging or catching a tan. Because the boat is private, you won’t have to share this space with strangers, which is a big plus for many travelers seeking intimacy or privacy.
The boat is equipped with snorkelling gear and floating mattresses, allowing you to explore underwater or just float around and relax. The included snorkel equipment is a real bonus, especially for those new to snorkeling or who want to avoid renting gear locally, which can sometimes be inconsistent in quality.
The Itinerary: What to Expect
The tour’s highlights include a two-hour snorkeling session at Isla Mujeres, with clear waters teeming with marine life, followed by a scenic four-hour cruise around the area. This allows plenty of time to take photos, enjoy the views, or even hop off at the island for some beach relaxation.
On the way to Isla Mujeres, you’ll enjoy scenic views along the coast, with the chance to spot local wildlife and marvel at the coastline’s natural beauty. Once at Isla Mujeres, you can choose to snorkel, sunbathe, or explore the island if you wish to disembark (though this depends on your specific boat and schedule).
Food and Drinks
The experience includes complimentary beverages—24 beers, sodas, water, and ice—which will keep everyone refreshed. Plus, there are dry snacks and fruits on board to keep hunger at bay. If you prefer a more substantial meal, bring your own or plan to purchase from local vendors at Isla Mujeres.
