We scheduled a yacht in September. I paid the $1500 deposit. On the day we were set to go out the…read moreweather was awful, not the normal raining in Miami. Thunderstorms and heavy rains we asked to reschedule and she initially said yes then backed out. I took pictures and videos the entire day to show proof of the awful weather and they wouldn't reschedule or give a refund. Then I found out they don't have a business license. This company is a fraud and don't care about your safety. Who can enjoy a yacht during thunderstorms PLEASE SEE PHOTOS AND VIDEOS FOR THE ENTIRE DAY

The boat was spotless, comfortable, and perfect for taking in the stunning sunset views. Spending quality time with family on the water, enjoying the ocean breeze, and making lifelong memories is truly money well spent. We'll be booking with them again.

He even took us to a little island! The service allows for drinks (of the adult nature) and food on board. He allowed us to play our own music and we had an amazing time. I can not wait until I am back in South Beach so that we can do this again. I would recommend that anyone traveling to the area take advantage of this experience. Captain Manny - if you see this - thanks for putting up with our crew and we WILL be back!!!

The Avalon boat was exactly like the pictures on the website and there was room enough for all 10 of us on board. Bring an iPod and a charger so you can DJ your own music and there was a cooler on board to store drinks etc. One of our friends kinda had some trouble swimming back to the boat due to the strong current and umm his current state and Captain Gabriel jumped in the water with a life jacket and saved him. :-) At the end of our rental, he even dropped us off at the Icon dock vs having to go all the way back to South Beach, very convenient! Would definitely sail with them again! This is NOT the same company as Miami Watersports that is panned on Yelp...we were a little worried when we read those reviews but it worked out great since it's a different company.

Al (owner) was super helpful and got me exactly what I needed. He told me about his yacht (Maryam) and I was eager to hop on board! The day of my charter, I got there a little early as instructed, and was greeted by an extremely friendly captain and an immaculate yacht. When I tell you this was the nicest yacht I've ever been on, that is an understatement. Beautiful hardwood floor, state of the art sound system, and the best lighting on any yacht in the water; Yacht Maryam did not miss in any way! The stew was also super friendly and took care of all my needs as fast as they could. They offered us a personal chef as well, and he was absolutely incredible!!! 5 start meals being cooked while we were enjoying the Miami views, there's just nothing like it. So next time your in Miami, and lookin to experience luxury yacht charters, I highly reccomend Maryam Yacht Charters. They were a one stop shop, and had excellent customer service. Thank you Maryam Yacht Charters for an unforgettable experience!!!!

Definitely would have paid extra to not be with other people. Nonetheless had a great time. I would recommend staying at the Marriott if you don't want the hassle of driving to the tour and paying for parking. Did the Ultimate Miami and Beaches Seaplane tour which included all the tours and honestly recommend. 600$ for the package but spent about 700$ including tips. Definitely will be buying extra seats next time, but overall not bad and had a great time!

We had such a good time, I decided to book them myself for my husband's birthday. Unlike charter boats that have limited capacity, this can have up to 39 guests. We paid $55 per person for four hours at sea. We first cruised around Biscayne Bay, taking in views of downtown and the waterways, until eventually we ended up at a sandbar where they give you rafts and paddle boards to hang out on. You can pay extra for a DJ or even food that they can grill on the boat. We ended up bringing our own food and hooking up our own music; however, the two person crew was so helpful when it came to organizing everything and ensuring we had a good time. Fernanda was very easy to coordinate with! The boat promptly arrived to the Sea Isle Marina downtown at 11:00 am and had us back right at 3:00 pm.

I always found businesses that never respond to a simple inquiry to be shady or simply not interested in growing their business, if they ignore new business inquiries just imagine how much more they would ignore you if you have a question, concern or complaint after booking. Stay away from Mia Boat Rental.
