Olivia Grace 60 ft British Princess Yacht Rental
A private yacht turns Cabo into your playground. The dedicated crew and personal bartender make this feel like a polished private party, while the custom menu built around local seafood gives the day more character than a simple boat ride. I also like the paddleboards, floating lily pad, and other water toys, since they give you something to do beyond admiring the Cabo coastline. The main drawback is price: at $2,499 for up to 10 people, this makes the most sense for a full group, not a couple or small family.
Food is another reason I like Olivia Grace. You can help plan the menu before departure, and the kitchen can accommodate allergies and dietary restrictions. Still, you should keep expectations measured: most feedback praises the meals, but one person felt the food did not match expectations and also raised a concern about the boat photos not matching the yacht provided.

Why Olivia Grace works best for a private group

Olivia Grace is designed for a private charter in Cabo San Lucas, not a shared sightseeing cruise. That difference matters. You are paying for the yacht, crew, food, drinks, and time on the water for your own party of up to 10 people.
At $2,499 per group, the math changes depending on your head count. Ten people would pay about $250 each before any additional costs that may apply. Five people would effectively pay about $500 each. For a birthday, family gathering, wedding-related outing, or friends’ reunion, the private format can feel worthwhile. For two or three people, it is a serious splurge.
The yacht has five staterooms, which adds comfort and gives the boat a more substantial feel than a basic day cruiser. The available details do not explain sleeping arrangements or overnight use, so I would treat the staterooms as part of the yacht’s interior space unless Cabo Yacht Charters confirms otherwise.
The charter lasts from about three hours to a full day. That is a wide range, so make sure you select or confirm the length you want. A three-hour outing can work well for a quick ocean break, while a longer charter gives your party more time to eat, swim, use the water toys, and settle into the pace of the day.

Starting at the Cabo San Lucas marina

The meeting point is in Centro at the Cabo San Lucas Marina, near the center of town. The listed address is Cabo San Lucas, BCS 23453, Mexico. Pickup is offered, but the provided information does not say exactly where pickup is available or whether it costs extra.
If you arrange pickup, confirm the meeting details before the day of the charter. A marina departure is convenient, but large resort areas and Cabo’s busy streets can make vague instructions frustrating. You want the pickup point, departure time, and boat location in writing.
The yacht returns to the same meeting point. That makes the outing easy to fit into a larger Cabo schedule, although I would avoid booking a tight dinner reservation immediately afterward. A private boat day can run at a relaxed pace, and weather or marina conditions may affect the timing.
Welcome drinks, food, and the open bar

The first moments on board are meant to feel special. You can expect welcome drinks and food soon after arrival. One detailed account described a fruit tray, appetizers, drinks, and a birthday cake with matching balloons for a birthday celebration. That tells you the crew is willing to pay attention to an occasion when you share the details ahead of time.
The food plan is one of Olivia Grace’s strongest features. The menu uses local seafood and other local ingredients, and you work with the charter team to choose from the available options before the trip. That is much better than being handed a fixed meal that may not suit everyone.
Dietary needs can be discussed in advance. Options are available for food allergies and dietary restrictions, but you should provide those details early and ask for confirmation. Do not assume that mentioning an allergy casually on departure day will produce the same result as planning it beforehand.
The food examples available here range from chef-prepared meals to club sandwiches, fruit, and snacks. One meal was praised for presentation and taste, while another account described a simpler spread of sandwiches, fruit, and snacks. This suggests the menu may vary by charter, timing, and package. Ask what is included for your chosen duration.
The personal bartender and open bar make the yacht feel social and festive. You can order boat drinks and enjoy the day without constantly managing purchases. Still, an open bar does not mean every premium drink or special request is included, so confirm the beverage details if that matters to your group.
Cabo’s arch and the open water

The most recognizable sight connected with this outing is the Cabo arch, the dramatic rock formation at Land’s End. The available information does not promise a fixed route or exact stop sequence, so you should confirm how the captain plans to handle the arch during your charter.
Seeing Cabo from the water changes your sense of the area. From the yacht, the marina gives way to open ocean and rocky coastal scenery, with the boat itself becoming a comfortable viewing platform. You can take photos, listen to music, eat, or simply let the crew handle the day.
One practical point: a smooth ride was specifically praised, but ocean conditions can vary. The charter requires good weather, and poor conditions may lead to a new date or a full refund. If you are prone to seasickness, bring that concern into your planning. The yacht may be comfortable, but no boat can promise perfectly calm water every day.
Since the exact route is not supplied, do not book this expecting a guaranteed list of beaches or coves. Ask about the planned route, expected cruising time, and chances for swimming. That small conversation can prevent a mismatch between the day you imagine and the day you receive.

Swimming, snorkeling, and the water toys

Olivia Grace includes paddleboards and other water toys, including a floating lily pad. A detailed account also described snorkeling and jumping into the water. These options give the charter some activity and variety, especially for a mixed-age group.
The floating lily pad is useful for a relaxed water break. Some people can swim or snorkel while others stay close to the yacht and lounge. The paddleboard offers a little more movement without turning the whole outing into an athletic event.
The available details do not list every toy, explain the snorkeling equipment, or guarantee a particular swimming stop. Ask what equipment is supplied and where the captain expects to stop. If snorkeling is the main reason you are booking, confirm that it is part of your selected charter rather than assuming it comes with every duration.
Water activities also require sensible judgment. Follow the crew’s instructions, especially around boat traffic, wind, and current. The crew’s job is to make the activities easy and safe, but your group still needs to pay attention.
The crew is the real luxury feature

The yacht is attractive, but the staff may be the most important part of the experience. Olivia Grace comes with designated staff, a captain, chef, and personal bartender. The strongest praise centers on service, friendliness, attention to detail, and professionalism.
That combination matters on a private charter. You are not just renting a boat and managing the day yourself. The crew handles drinks, food, water activities, and the small needs that can make a celebration feel organized rather than chaotic.
The birthday account gives a useful example. The crew prepared a cake and balloons with the birthday person’s name, served food, kept drinks moving, and helped the group enjoy music and dancing. That level of planning is not automatic, so tell the company about birthdays or other occasions when you book.
Several accounts also describe the captain and crew as both professional and fun. That is a good balance. You want people who take the boat and water conditions seriously without making the day stiff.
Music, space, and the mood on board

The yacht has a sound system suitable for music and dancing. That makes Olivia Grace a better choice for a group that wants a private celebration rather than a quiet sightseeing trip. You can create your own mood instead of sharing the boat’s music with strangers.
Space is another advantage. A 60-foot yacht and five staterooms give your party room to spread out, eat, talk, and take breaks. One account specifically praised having plenty of room and a smooth ride.
The tone depends partly on your group. You can make the charter festive with music, drinks, and water activities, or keep it calmer with food and scenery. The private format gives you more control than a standard shared cruise.
Just remember that the sound system, food, and open bar do not remove the need to agree on the day’s plan. If part of your group wants to snorkel and another part wants to stay on board, discuss that with the crew early.
Food expectations and the one notable concern

The overall record is very strong, with a five-star rating and recommendation from 99 percent of people who provided feedback. The praise is especially consistent about the crew, but food also receives several positive comments.
Still, one lower rating raised two concerns: the yacht shown in the photos did not appear to match the yacht provided, and the food did not meet that person’s expectations. The staff and host were praised in the same account, so the complaint was about the product and presentation rather than service.
That is worth taking seriously without overstating it. Ask for the exact yacht name and current photos before booking. Confirm that Olivia Grace, described as a 60-foot British Princess yacht, is the vessel assigned to your date. Also ask for a sample menu and clarify whether your selected charter includes the full chef service or a simpler meal.
These questions are especially sensible because the menu appears to vary. Club sandwiches, fruit, and snacks may suit a casual half-day, while a birthday or full-day charter may call for a more elaborate meal. A clear conversation before payment helps set the right expectations.
Who should book this Cabo yacht charter?
I would recommend Olivia Grace for:
- A group of friends splitting the cost
- Families seeking a private day together
- Birthday celebrations and other special occasions
- People who value attentive service more than a fixed sightseeing schedule
- Groups that want food, drinks, music, and swimming in one package
- Anyone who prefers a private boat to a shared cruise
I would hesitate if you are traveling as a couple or a very small group and mainly want a short view of the Cabo arch. The total cost may be hard to justify. I would also hesitate if your priority is a guaranteed snorkeling site, a specific beach, or a precise route, since those details are not provided.
The charter is offered in English, and most people can participate. Service animals are allowed, and the meeting area is near public transportation. Those are useful points, though the yacht’s interior layout and any access limits on board are not described, so ask the operator if mobility is a concern.
The charter is weather dependent. You can cancel for a full refund up to 24 hours before the start time. Cancellations made within 24 hours are not refunded, and late changes are not accepted. If poor weather cancels the outing, you are offered another date or a full refund.
How to get the best value from the $2,499 price
The best value comes from filling the boat. At the maximum group size, the price becomes easier to defend because it covers a private yacht, crew, open bar, food planning, water toys, and several hours on the ocean.
Before booking, ask these practical questions:
- Is the charter exactly three hours, half a day, or a full day?
- Which yacht will be assigned to the date?
- What food and drinks are included?
- Are snorkeling gear and all listed water toys supplied?
- Is pickup included, and where will it collect you?
- What route and swimming stops are planned?
- Can the crew arrange a cake, balloons, or another celebration detail?
You should also make your food restrictions clear at the planning stage. The operator says it can work with allergies and dietary needs, but your request is easiest to handle when the menu is being prepared.
The advance booking pattern is another useful clue. This charter is booked about 46 days ahead on average, so popular dates may disappear well before a Cabo vacation begins. That does not guarantee every date will sell out, but I would not leave a birthday or holiday charter until the last week.
Should you book Olivia Grace?
Book it if you have a group that can share the cost and you want a private Cabo day built around service, food, drinks, music, and water time. The crew receives the clearest praise, and the combination of a personal bartender, custom menu, paddleboards, floating lily pad, and private space gives the outing more substance than a simple boat transfer.
Before you commit, confirm the assigned yacht, menu, route, pickup details, and included water equipment. That extra check addresses the only notable concerns in the available feedback. For a full group celebrating together, Olivia Grace looks like a strong choice. For a small party on a tight budget, a shorter or shared boat trip may offer better value.
