We look after the boats we charter

Valparaiso Luxury Management is a South Florida yacht management and charter company. We manage privately owned yachts on behalf of their owners — crew, maintenance, dockage, compliance, provisioning — and we charter that same fleet to guests.

That structure is unusual, and it's the whole point. Most charter websites are broker listings: someone forwards your inquiry to a boat they have never stood on, takes a cut, and hopes for the best. Our yachts are in our care. We know which one has the better shade, which captain is best with kids, which boat came out of a refit last spring and which one is due.

The fleet runs from a 37-foot Axopar day boat to a 112-foot Westport tri-deck, based across Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Pompano Beach, Lighthouse Point, West Palm Beach, Palm Beach Gardens, Hypoluxo and Delray Beach. Every charter is fully crewed by licensed captains. Every rate on this site is the real rate.

For owners, the same team handles the unglamorous side of yachting: keeping the vessel insured, inspected, clean, crewed and generating revenue instead of sitting at a dock depreciating. If that's what you need, read about our management program.
