VRBO Elite 72' Luxury Motor Yacht

New VRBO listing! Be one of the first guests aboard this beautiful, one of kind yacht. You and your guests will have exclusive use of this 72ft yacht all to yourselves. The yacht stays docked, the entire reservation, at the Galleon Resort (except for the excursion you chose), with free access to its fishing pier, live music, many restaurants and attractions nearby, spectacular ocean views & more. You and your guests can come and go on the yacht anytime, day or night.

Due to local regulations, it is required that you choose at least one of the following options during your reservation: a two-hour sunset sail, a four-hour excursion, an eight-hour excursion, a ten-hour excursion, or a 24-hour excursion.

- 2-hour excursion: $1500+tax & gratuity (sunset cruise only)
- 4-hour excursion: $2200+tax & gratuity
- 8-hour excursion: $3100+tax & gratuity
- 10-hour excursion: $3700+tax & gratuity
- 24-hour excursion: $4300+tax & gratuity

Please note that the cost of the excursions must be paid directly to our company at the time of booking. The prices listed above include the captain's fee and fuel, however, does not include gratuity.

These excursions are highly recommended by our previous guests and are sure to provide you with a memorable experience. During these outings, you'll have the opportunity to learn how to navigate, snorkel around the coral reef, fish from the yacht, spot dolphins and sea turtles, and much more. Our 24-hour charter is particularly popular as it combines the activities of a day excursion with the unique experience of spending a night anchored on the ocean. If you are staying for more than two nights, you can even enjoy multiple excursions during your reservation period.

Just imagine sleeping under the stars with no neighbors next to, above, or below you like in a hotel room. You can spend your days and nights fishing from the boat, relax on the deck while listening to the sounds of tropical fish jumping in the water, and experience the thrill of being away from the marina, anchored on the ocean. If you're seeking an adventurous and extraordinary vacation surrounded by breathtaking ocean views, wildlife, and fish, this is the perfect choice for you. You might never want to return to land again!

The weather in this area is ideal throughout the year for activities such as snorkeling, fishing, lobster catching (seasonal), kayaking, paddleboarding, learning to sail, scuba diving, or simply enjoying a relaxing sunset cruise.

You have the option to cook your own meals in the fully furnished kitchen, arrange for food catering, or even hire a professional chef for an extra cost. In the charter industry, it is customary to share your food and beverages with the captain and mate. If needed, provisioning service can be arranged upon request for an additional fee.

The Galleon Resort is a pristine resort located in the heart of a turquoise paradise with crystal-clear waters. Your stay at the hotel includes access to live music performances, many nearby restaurants, a nearby swimming beach, a fishing pier and more. Additionally, the resort is in close proximity to retail shops, grocery stores, restaurants, and various attractions. Only 2 blocks from Duval Street!

Just as you slide open the heavy-duty curved glass sliding salon door you will immediately get the sense of quality MARQUIS YACHTS put into this build.  As you enter you find the inviting salon, it is spacious and designed for entertainment, the floor is lined with plush carpeting and for seating you have two comfortable facing sofas and a bucket chair with the ability to sit approximately 10 guests. Your flat panel tv is hung just as you enter on the starboard side. Moving forward you have the dinette to starboard and full galley to port. The galley is fully equipped with the essentials to cook and prepare a full gourmet meal and has all the storage you may need for a vessel of this size. The lower helm area is designed as a fully functioning helm with all the equipment needed to safely and comfortably navigate from. Just to starboard of the lower helm area is a side wing door to allow ease of access to bow area while docking. As you head down the curved staircase leading to cabins you come down to a comfortable landing. Aft you will find the master stateroom with the centerline king size bed. The Master Stateroom has an on suite head, with his and her sinks and walk in stall shower, plenty of closet space, natural light and visibility coming from large hull side windows. Moving forward in the lower companionway you have the second stateroom on the port side with twin beds and an adjacent bathroom and serves as the day head also. All the way forward you will have the VIP Stateroom with a queen size centerline bed and its on suite head. Each stateroom is equipped with a flat panel tv. The Crew Quarters are aft with its private access through transom and comes equipped with TV, microwave, head, shower and two single berths. Flybridge is accessed through aft cockpit and is laid out with helm area all the way forward with a helm chair and custom dual helm chair to port. Fully equipped wet bar with bar seating, lighted bar top, round sink, ice maker, refrigeration, and electric grill. Large dinette table to starboard with plenty of seating. Aft fly is equipped with cushions and pillows for sunbathing.  This yacht is set to satisfy your wildest demands for the highest level of comfort.

A bareboat charter to the Dry Tortugas would require a minimum of five nights and you would have to purchase three-24 hour excursions in addition to what you pay VRBO, giving you one night at the Dry Tortugas. You would stay at the Marquesas islands halfway on your way there and on your way back. This is truly a bucket list charter that will provide memories that will last a lifetime. The Dry Tortugas is too far to go and come back in one day.

The excursions/charters offered are discounted from the regular price and must be paid directly to our company outside of VRBO at the time of booking.

We also offer bareboat day charters where you do not have to stay overnight on the boat. This type of charter must be booked directly through our company as VRBO is only set up for overnight accommodation bookings.

If you want to operate the boat or tender yourself you must book directly with our company to go through an approval process. Taking the vessel yourself (and not hiring a captain) is subject to prior experience on similar vessels.

We do not provide snorkel gear, & it is recommended you rent a full set at a nearby dive shop to assure your gear will fit you properly. You can rent fishing gear here as well as this is not provided. Paddle board and kayak rentals are also available nearby and some companies will even deliver them to the marina.

The advertised price on this listing covers the cost of insurance that covers you and the crew during your reservation period as well as the cost to survey the boat after you leave. You will be required to undergo a bareboat contract and will take full responsibility of the operation and safety of the yacht, crew, and all passengers.

Guests must be able to walk up & down stairs inside the boat and be able to make a longer than usual step at times to get on and off the boat.

The fourth bedroom consists of 2 Single Beds in the crew quarters, a tighter space. This is where the 9th and 10th guests would sleep on stays with charters less than 24 hours.

Please let us know if this yacht does not meet your specifications as we have other yachts that may.
There's a private balcony. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. The bathroom has a shower and a hair dryer. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
