Yacht vs catamaran
Yachts are faster, more private and better for 8–15 people. Catamarans have more deck space and cost less per person for 20+. We recommend based on group size, not commission.

The short answer
A private yacht party in Punta Cana costs roughly USD 1,200–2,500 for a half-day charter and USD 2,200–4,800 for a full day, priced per boat rather than per person. That covers the crew, fuel, the natural pool and snorkeling stop, and usually an open bar.
A private yacht charter is the single best upgrade to a Punta Cana group trip. You get privacy, control of the music, and the Caribbean's best photo backdrop.
We charter from Cap Cana Marina and Bávaro, matching vessel size to your group, then handle drinks, food, music and transportation to the dock.

Optional upgrade
Optional add-on: yacht day companions
The easiest upgrade for a charter day. Our companions are beautiful Latinas with great energy — professional party hosts who meet your group at the marina and keep the deck alive from the first playlist to the sunset run home.
It is a hospitality booking, coordinated with your captain and crew. Companions host, dance, translate and make the day photograph like a real party. Punta Party does not sell, arrange or imply sexual services of any kind.
- Marina meet-up so nobody arrives to an empty deck
- Deck energy, music, dancing and content moments
- Coordinated with the crew and the route
- Vetted, briefed and priced as a clear line item
