The Experience in Detail

Setting Sail from Cancun’s Marina Hacienda del Mar

The journey begins at Marina Hacienda del Mar, a well-equipped hub for luxury yachts. After boarding the Sunseeker 50, guests are welcomed into a space that’s as stylish as it is comfortable. The newly upholstered seating invites you to kick back as the captain and crew prepare for departure.

Guests consistently mention the “impressive” condition of the yacht and how “well-maintained” it appears, which elevates the entire experience. The yacht’s modern amenities and spacious layout mean everyone can relax, stretch out, and enjoy the views without feeling cramped.

Cruising Along Cancun’s Coastline

As you leave the marina, you’ll quickly notice the “breathtaking” sights of Cancun’s shoreline. The panoramic windows offer unobstructed views of the turquoise waters, while the breeze keeps everyone cool. The crew provides an overview of the day’s plan, including suggested water activities and time on Isla Mujeres.

One reviewer mentioned, “The crew made the ride so enjoyable — they were attentive but left us plenty of space to relax.” Expect to cruise for about an hour or so before reaching your first stop.

Lunch and Island Exploration

The highlight for many is the stop at Isla Mujeres, where about four hours are dedicated to exploring the island’s charm. Once ashore, you’ll hop into a golf cart—a popular way to see the sights at your own pace.

This gives you the chance to visit local eateries, shop for souvenirs, or simply relax on the beaches. Many reviews mention that the island feels authentic, with fewer travelers than other popular spots, and the golf cart allows for spontaneous detours.

What Guests Say About the Visit

One guest observed, “The island felt like a hidden gem—more relaxed and authentic than other tourist hotspots.” Another appreciated the flexibility: “Having a private golf cart meant we could customize our island tour and skip the crowded spots.”

The Return Voyage

After a leisurely exploration, you’ll sail back to Cancun, soaking up the last views of the coastline. With the yacht’s luxurious amenities and attentive crew, the entire day feels indulgent yet effortless.

Pricing and Value Analysis

At $2,100 for up to 10 guests, this experience offers significant value, especially when compared to similar private yacht charters. The all-inclusive nature—snacks, drinks, snorkeling gear, and water sports equipment—means there are few extra costs beyond the initial price.

While the cost might seem hefty on paper, the exclusivity and flexibility of a small group make it worthwhile. You’re paying for privacy, comfort, and a tailored experience that big group tours can’t match.

It’s also important to note that landings and facility fees aren’t included, so budget accordingly if you plan to indulge in island restaurants or shopping.

Plan your own transportation to the marina if your hotel isn’t nearby; the tour doesn’t include pickup.
Consider combining this experience with other Cancun activities if you want a full day of adventure.
