Chartered the Midnight Sun for our wedding 10/28/23. We have worked with Hazel since April of this year to get the event planned and booked. Below are 2 messages I sent to Hazel and to Bill. Look no further if you’re looking to book a charter in Miami. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience where EVERY detail & was planned and executed to perfection. To Hazel: Thank you for ALL you did to help us facilitate such a wonderful event and evening. EVERYONE that attended stated how impressed they were with the food, the hospitality, just the overwhelming perfection this experience was to have attended and celebrated. Just top tier everything. I hope you know how pivotal your role was in making such a lasting impact on our family & friends. I don’t know that I’ll ever be able to express how much gratitude we have for you in helping make this happen and then to be so special. Thank you to ♾️ To Bill: Thank you Bill. I appreciate your professionalism and your kindness to us and all the hard work you all did on our behalf. Such an amazing & special evening & memory we can cherish forever because of wonderful people like you. I can’t thank you enough.
We had a corporate event aboard the Catalina and the staff, service, food, drinks were just amazing ! A grand night for our group of 200+. Highly recommend.
This boat was was amazing and refreshing!! Love the tour guide he was so much fun!!
Excelent website 🎉
Hazel and everyone was so great and made our whole wedding experience as painless and easy as possible. They were so patient and made our wedding dreams come true. Everyone from the crew down to the person doing the ceremony was so attentive and went above and beyond to make our wedding dreams be the best they could be. The food was really good. If you want the wedding of your dreams look no further. I would definitely recommend doing the 6 hrs vs the 4 hrs. We are glad in the end we spent the little bit extra for them extra 2 hrs.
Highlight of the trip! The boat and crew were amazing. We had great food catered and an open bar with an amazing bar tender. The staff was very attentive and provided for anything we needed. All very professional. Highly recommend.
We used American Yacht company for a corporate outing and it was phenomenal. We boarded the Biscayne Lady and were greeted with champagne and the best waitstaff. The dinner was delicious and of course, the drinks well-made. The views spectacular (especially from the upper deck) and the boat itself a wonderful, luxurious experience. Our customers on board said this was by far one of the best business related outings they had been on and we got rave reviews. I cannot recommend enough! And the behind-the-scenes prep work was a breeze with Bianca's help making sure we were all set with the little details leading up to the event. A great experience and would wholeheartedly recommend to anyone looking for a top-notch private charter.
This review is way overdue, but it's important nonetheless. We worked with Hazel at American Yacht to book the Midnight Sun as a welcome cruise to our Wedding Weekend for 100 people and it went beautifully. The ship, the staff, the food, the bartenders and the sound system were all wonderful. It was a risk for us to put our trust in this company as we are not from Miami and had never chartered a boat of this size, but American Yacht handled everything beautifully. Thank you.
The Charter onboard the Caribbean Spirit was wonderful. Beautifully executed from start to finish. I worked closely with Hazel on the front end of the planning and she was a dream. Very patient with our multitude of questions and extremely quick in reply which was amazing. Once onboard we had a wonderful experience. The catamaran was in great shape and with so many fun features. My group loved the bungee laying area at the front of the boat and the water trampoline so much. The floating lily pad was a huge hit as well. We brought our own caterer onboard in which the boat happily accommodated our request and the beverages were great. The bartender (did not get his name) was so friendly and nice. He quickly remembered what you last asked for and without hesitation you had a new cold beverage in your hand. The captain did a great job of making this personal to our group. When he saw they were loving the time at the sandbar he quickly asked if we wanted to extend our time there and skip the sightseeing. We are all locals so we loved that idea. It was great that he picked up on the vibe of the group and offered to adjust to fit our needs. All around a wonderful experience!
Anything from an intimate day charter for up to 12 guests to large party yachts and catamarans built for a crowd. Once we know your headcount and the occasion, we’ll match you to the right vessel.
We operate out of Miami and Fort Lauderdale, with cruising grounds reaching the Bahamas and the Florida Keys. Whether it’s a sunset loop of Biscayne Bay or a multi-day island escape, we’ll map it out with you.
It means we’re free to recommend the best yacht for you, not the one sitting at our dock. As an independent brokerage, we compare the whole fleet, handle the contract, and manage every detail — with your interests first.
