A private, fully crewed Amihan Charters catamaran charter starts at $4,500 for 5 nights (Island Hopper) and $6,500 for 7 nights (Full Bahamas Odyssey) — for the whole vessel, not per person. That price includes your captain, daily breakfast and lunch, snorkeling gear, paddleboards, and fuel. It does not include dinner (guests dine ashore or add a private chef) or alcohol beyond what's arranged as an add-on.
Most Bahamas charter pricing is either hidden behind an inquiry form or built for a much larger boat than you need. Here's the honest comparison.
| Option | Typical price | What you're getting |
|---|---|---|
| Amihan Charters | $4,500–$6,500 / whole vessel, 5–7 nights | Fully crewed, all-inclusive except dinner & alcohol, max 4 guests, LGBT-owned & operated |
| Brokered crewed catamaran | $8,000–$12,000 / week | Comparable-size vessel booked through a broker, per Amihan's own market research |
| Bareboat rental | Often cheaper up front | No captain or crew — requires a licensed, experienced sailor aboard |
All private charters include: exclusive use of the vessel, your USCG-licensed captain, European-style breakfast and light lunch daily, non-alcoholic beverages, snorkeling gear for all guests, paddleboards, a dinghy for shore excursions, bedding and towels, and fuel. Dinner is not included — guests can dine ashore or add a private chef for onboard dinners. A premium bar package and first mate service are also available as add-ons.
Every add-on is quoted individually based on your dates and group size — ask for exact figures when you inquire.
Professional underwater photography and videography of your snorkeling sessions and marine life encounters.
Upgrade to a fully provisioned bar — wine, spirits, champagne, and craft cocktail ingredients.
A private chef for onboard multi-course dinners each evening. Dietary preferences fully accommodated.
Seamless door-to-dock transfers from Nassau Lynden Pindling International Airport to your marina.
