St. Maarten has no shortage of boat tours. But there's a significant difference between a shared excursion and a fully private charter — and for the right group, that difference is worth every dollar.
First: it's your boat, your people, your pace. On a private charter, The Phoenix is exclusively yours. You choose the music, you set the pace, and you don't share the experience with strangers. For a birthday, anniversary, or special celebration, that intimacy is irreplaceable.
Second: the crew focuses entirely on your group. On a shared tour, the crew manages 36 guests. On a private charter, they manage yours. That means more attentive service, more personalized touches, and a crew that genuinely invests in making your day exceptional.
Third: flexibility. While our standard route covers the highlights — Little Bay snorkeling, Maho Beach, Mullet Bay — private charters can be customized. Want to spend more time at a particular spot? Want to explore a different bay? We'll work with you to create the ideal itinerary.
Fourth: it scales beautifully. The Phoenix accommodates up to 50 guests. Whether you're celebrating with 8 close friends or hosting a corporate event for 40 colleagues, the boat handles it with ease. The per-person cost decreases significantly as your group grows.
Fifth: the memories are entirely yours. On a private charter, every photo, every moment, every conversation happens within your group. There's no background noise from other guests, no waiting for the bar, no competing for deck space. It's a completely different quality of experience.
Private charters start from $3,190 for up to 8 guests, with $60 per additional guest. Contact us at info@sailthephoenix.com or book online at sailthephoenix.com.
