Book My Boat is a boutique yacht charter company based in Miami, founded in 2020 by Mariam Revuelta, a Florida-licensed yacht broker. Officially Book My Boat Miami Yacht Rentals, the company was built to make luxury boat experiences easy and safe, with licensed brokers, vetted captains, and clear pricing, keeping every trip simple.
Today, it runs more than 300 boats across Miami and the Bahamas, backed by 24/7 concierge and trip support.
In the next few minutes, you will get to know the company behind the charters: how it started, what they offer, the fleet and destinations they cover, and the way they look after guests at every step of the trip.
The Story Behind Book My Boat
Book My Boat began in 2020, when founder Mariam Revuelta launched it to make premium yacht charters easy, safe, and memorable. Born in Cuba and an ocean-lifestyle advocate, she brought a background in yacht sales and charters, route-planning expertise, and a hospitality mindset to the company from the start.
As a Florida-licensed yacht broker, Mariam built the business around a client-first, concierge approach to chartering. That focus on the guest still runs through everything they do.
It started as a boutique operation, but it has grown into a charter brand serving families, friends, and corporate groups, and the way they treat guests traces straight back to how the company began.
What Makes Book My Boat Different?
Book My Boat has a 24-hour cancellation policy and a pay-later option, which gives guests flexibility when plans change. Booking well ahead of a trip does not lock a group into a fixed date.
When you do book your charter, you can become part of their elite rewards program, which you can use toward future charter purchases.
Book My Boat pairs safety-first operations with concierge service, which shifts most of the planning work onto their team. They handle the details, matching you to the right boat and laying out clear pricing before you book.
Every charter comes with vetted, certified captains and crew, route guidance, sandbar tips, and even the best photo spots, backed by 24/7 concierge and trip support if anything comes up. Most charters include a captain, so you can simply step aboard and enjoy the day.
A Fleet Designed for Every Type of Guest
Their fleet runs more than 300 vessels across Miami and the Bahamas, so there is a boat for nearly every group, budget, and occasion. The lineup spans pontoons and small boats, catamarans, speed and wake boats, luxury and mega yachts, houseboats, plus specialty options like hot-tub yachts, fireworks-viewing yachts, pink yachts, and toy-packed boats, and larger vessels that hold groups of 13 or more.
Start with a boat rental for a quick trip, or opt for a private yacht charter in Miami for more space and privacy. You can book by the hour or by the day, in a handful of formats:
- Half-day trips of about four hours for sandbar time and quick swims.
- Full-day charters of six to eight hours that reach the coast around Key Biscayne.
- Night cruisers along the downtown skyline, past Bayside and Brickell.
- Golden-hour sunset cruises at spots like Hobie Beach and La Islita.
- Overnight tours of roughly 24 hours, sleeping at anchor.
- Multi-day Bahamas itineraries to Bimini, Freeport, Nassau, and Exuma.
Day charters come with a professional crew, bottled water and ice, a cooler, a Bluetooth sound system, and a floating mat. The day can be as full or as low-key as you like, because they handle far more than the rental.
Charter Add-Ons and Event Services
Beyond the boat, you can arrange the extras that turn a charter into an event:
- A decoration package with balloons, a banner, and a coordinated color palette.
- A bartender, with cocktails, mocktails, and glassware.
- A yacht DJ, with onboard sound and LED lights.
- A private chef, plus food, cooking tapas, seafood, or steaks on deck.
- A photographer with drone footage and a private gallery within 72 hours.
- Jet ski rentals and jetcar rentals.
They also handle a food-and-bites menu, beverage packages, decorations, and transportation. Every trip includes route guidance and sandbar tips, so the planning stays on us.
All of that works best in the right setting, and the destinations give guests plenty to choose from.
Popular Destinations Guests Can Explore
Book My Boat helps guests reach the boating spots that make the area famous, with routes tuned to your group and the day.
Favorites include Miami Beach for skyline views and South Beach access, Star Island for celebrity-mansion sightseeing and photo stops, and Key Biscayne for crystal water, snorkeling, and the Cape Florida Lighthouse. Downtown cruises sail between the skyscrapers past Bayside and the Brickell skyline, while Coconut Grove adds leafy views and waterfront dining, and the Miami River offers an urban, industrial-chic angle on the city.
On the water, the sandbars are the social heart of it. Haulover, near Aventura and Fort Lauderdale, is the floating-party spot with mats and DJs, while Nixon and No Name Harbor off Key Biscayne stay calmer, and spots like La Islita, Fisher Island, and Hobie Beach round out the favorites. For a bigger trip, they run Caribbean island-hopping and Bahamas escapes to Bimini, Freeport, Nassau, and Exuma, with overnight stays and stops like the Sapona Wreck and Honeymoon Harbour.
Each of these can anchor a very different celebration, and they build trips around all of them.
Charters for Every Occasion
They tailor charters to just about any occasion and budget: birthdays, weddings, bachelorette parties, proposals and anniversaries, corporate days, and regattas. The big holiday nights get dedicated New Year’s Eve and Fourth of July cruises for fireworks over the water.
Anglers have their own lineup:
- Deep-sea trips for marlin, tuna, and mahi.
- Offshore charters for snapper, grouper, and sailfish.
- Calm inshore days for tarpon and snook that suit kids.
- Guided, catch-and-release shark trips.
- Night charters for tarpon, snook, or offshore swordfish.
You can book any of these on a budget-friendly party fishing boat or step up to a sport-fishing yacht with cabins and air conditioning.
Underneath every trip sits the same foundation: a safe and transparent operation guests can rely on.
How to Book
Booking only takes three simple steps, and a concierge is on hand the whole way. You stay in control of the choices while they handle the details behind each one.
- Choose your yacht from their listings, for a day trip or an extended getaway.
- Pick the date and time that fit your plan.
- Book online, or text or call their team for help.
With 24/7 concierge and trip support and an average response time under 15 minutes, questions rarely sit unanswered for long. The team also takes inquiries over WhatsApp.
