We have used this charter now 3 times and have absolutely loved every time. The crew was so attentive and they made us feel completely at home. I highly recommend, especially for a large group as the price is much better than one of the big tacky party boats when you do the math.

This review could have easily been Excellent/5 starts, but upon entering the boat (Hatteras 75), me and my friends quickly realized that the boat was extremely outdated and worn. What we saw in the photos did not match reality, which put a bit of a damper on the experience. Damp carpet and furniture, worn seat cushions covered by towels, I'll leave it at that. Also, premium bar consisted of two types of alcohol to choose (Jose Cuervo tequila and Absolut vodka), and a "private chef" is debatable, as it was a crew member who prepared tacos, and handful of shrimp skewers and chip and guac. My friends were a bit skeptical to eat after seeing the kitchen, but we ate and the food was ok. Overall, the presentation and aesthetic felt a little bait and switch-y.
Now that the critical part is out of the way...
The service from the crew was stellar. They were extremely accommodating, and Dave who I was in contact with even added some balloons and a cake as there were several celebrations taking place, including a couple of birthdays. Additionally, Dave gave us a discount on the yacht, which was nice considering it is low season and a pandemic. This review would have been less if we paid full price.
Of course we were grateful for these accommodations. The boat ride was very enjoyable and the views were stunning. Again, the crew was attentive.
To the owner of the boat/Dave, one piece of advice, impressions and aesthetic are very important, and some money should be invested in updating the boat and making sure food and interior presentation matches the stellar service of the crew.
To those considering using this company, be sure to ask for current photos and ask specifics re: food, alcohol.

While the yacht is a little dated, we got SO much value for the money compared to other yacht charters in the area! The layout was exactly what we wanted and needed - lots of space on the bow, on the top deck, as well as an extra sunning space on the stern. All neat and clean and the staff was really attentive and awesome! A full open premium bar (we did have to remind them that we ordered premium bar so as to get the best brands of hard liquor) and lots of snacks, with a very good Mexican dinner in the mix - all for one price! It was great! The Captain took us to a great beach where he arranged for us to rent three SeaDoos for an hour. That was awesome, too! I highly recommend the AURORA if you are looking for a relaxing, good time on the beautiful waters off Puerto Vallarta with a really nice crew and good solid boat. We had 11 adult family members plus a toddler, but the yacht could have handled another 10 people with no problem.

Do yourself a favor and book an event on this boat. Myself and 6 other friends booked a sunset dinner cruise and it was amazing!! From the hospitality, to the crew, to experience, I can't say enough good things. Rachel and Daniel were amazing. The Captain gave us a perfect boating experience. We were chased by dolphins, got close whales all while enjoying cocktails with great friends watching the sunset over Banderas Bay.

We rented the 75' Hatteras for a 50th birthday celebration and had an absolute blast! It was the highlight of our trip! The booking process was smooth and easy from beginning to end. The captain and crew were friendly and most accommodating. We had a bit of a hiccup with the weather, but the captain was able to seek out calmer waters which made for a beautiful day. Such an amazing opportunity to see the breathtaking coastline of Puerto Vallarta and to reach the unspoiled beaches. Yelapa is a must! Oh, we can't forget the fishing experience! Didn't plan on fishing, but somehow we were able to reel in a few nice size fish thanks to the crew! Took the fish to a restaurant off the pier where they cleaned and prepared it for us. Best fish ever! We considered several other charters before choosing this one and are so pleased that we did. Friendly, accommodating and professional. We would highly recommend!

We rented the Aurora twice last week during Thanksgiving. And we rented this boat one time last year. It was AWESOME! We had kids as young as 4 on the boat all the way up through teenagers and adults. The crew is amazing catering to our needs. The Aurora is an older boat... no doubt. But it's just perfect for our needs. The chef prepares great guac, ceviche, and shrimp aguachile. The fajitas were great as well. Only complaint is that the chips were a little stale one of the days. But it didn't matter. If you want to enjoy some time on the ocean, do some snorkeling, sit on a floating mattress, etc... this is it. The food is good. Drinks are good. Service is excellent.

We had a group of 19 and renting our the Aurora was one of our best decisions of the week. Our group age range was from 15 - 50's and EVERYBODY loved the trip. The drinks were ice cold, the whole crew was happy, free range on the boat, just a great experience. We went to a semi private area of the ocean that was calm and crystal blue and did some snorkeling, tubing and just floated in the ocean. On the way back one of the boys caught a Mahi-Mahi and the chef made a ceviche out of it. SO good! We will be back!

The Aurora Yacht raised the bar for our annual NYE couples trip. Miraculously the water taxi driver spotted us and accompanied us to the taxi, shuttled us to the Aurora which was more than ready to provide us unprecedented service. Each an every person treated us with exceptionality. It was perfection personified. We were indulged and felt like stars. The drinks never stopped flowing, our dinner was phenomenal and prepared with love, we were able to chill and play in the ocean and were never rushed or felt we worried or were bothersome to the crew. The Aurora crew are patient, attentive and the boat is beautiful. She is well taken care of and very clean. It is obviously she is loved on. Just to be very clear we had a great time and will return to not only PVR but to the Aurora and her family.

This is our second booking on the Aurora Yacht. There were 22 the first trip and 19 this time. We loved it the first time and loved it even more the second time! This yacht is so roomy and comfortable. The crew were excellent, the food was great. The Captain sailed near the shore as we had asked so we could view the area shores and then anchored in Mismaloya Bay and served us a wonderful buffet. The drinks and beers kept coming. What more can I say! We will book again next Year on our annual trip to Puerto Vallarta! Thanks Captain and Crew!

Booked our charter on Victory for my birthday and it did not disappoint. From the constant communication with Karina and David, my friends and I were able to plan our day exactly how we wanted. The crew (Mario, Pepe and One) were absolutely amazing. They went above and beyond for us from start to finish. The food was delicious and fresh. I couldn’t have asked for a better day. I would highly recommend this company and crew to anyone!
