It’s hard to imagine it has been close to two years since we had to adhere to social gathering rules and other regulations. Now that our country has officially opened up, we can finally heave a sigh of relief as restrictions are lifted on group size limits. This means it’s time to call upon your friends and plan some activities under the sun. Imagine the idyllic islands and calm waters surround Singapore, what better way to experience a quick getaway from the hustle and bustle than hiring a yacht charter company? Renting a private yacht in Singapore is nothing new, but it can get overwhelming with so many companies available. As such, here are the top private yacht and yacht rentals in Singapore.
Note: This list is strictly not in order.
1. Valencia Yachts
Whether you’re planning to host a birthday party, dinner cruise, wedding or simply island hop to nearby islands in Indonesia, Malaysia, and Thailand, Valencia Yachts is the yacht charter company you’re looking for. They offer various Leopard catamarans ranging from 43-feet to 51-feet in length, but we recommend going for the Leopard 51 Ft Yacht for that touch of grandeur and refinement. The private yacht accommodates up to 30 guests for a day cruise and 6 guests for an overnight stay. Do enquire now to find out more about their rates, which start from $999 onwards.

Had a great time with Valencia Yachts. Both Khai and Moose were extremely hospitable.
I cut my leg and Moose helped to apply Dettol on my wound.
That made my day.
Would definitely return sometime soon.

Had a really great experience sailing with Khai and Moose! They were friendly and extremely helpful, and really accommodating towards our group. 10/10 would sail with them again, thanks for a wonderful day 🌞

Zenith Charters have been helpful and responsive throughout our enquiries. They offered various yacht options. We were very lucky to be upgraded to a Zen Sea III yacht on our trip. We are a family of 5, so the space was good.

Amazing captain & crew with great communication throughout my private trip with friends! I’ll definitely head back to them for sure! If you’re looking for a short getaway from your city life, go with Zenith Yacht Charters.

Andrew Wong
Gerald was a fantastic host – very welcoming and generous. It was a perfect experience for our first time chartering and visiting Lazarus Island. We really felt relaxed and at ease though the whole trip, yet were completely exhausted from all the activities! We would not hesitate to recommend Gerald, Asyiqin and Sea Friends to anyone else interested in having this experience. Thanks for a great day out!
Elysia Lau
Thank you Andrew for organising the trip and the crew for the excellent service all around – we had an incredible time, whether partaking in the water sports or relaxing on the boat and in the water. We loved the barbecue cooked on-board, especially the satay and skewered prawns!

4. Seek Sophie
Seek Sophie is a local-based tour agency offering a wide range of activities, from creative classes to food tours. However, we like to shine a spotlight on their yacht charter services, in particular the pet-friendly private yacht trip to Lazarus Island. If you plan on bringing your furry friend with you, this is the perfect yacht rental to go with. During these 4 hours, you can participate in water activities, do some fishing, or simply indulge in a feast, since food and drinks can be brought on board. There are certain restrictions on what pets are allowed, so we advised sending an enquiry.

The 4 hours Fun@Sea was totally worth the money for families with children looking for a special way of bonding! Thanks to Alf and Eden who were very passionate and ensured us having fun safely! Our 5 and 2 year old children had great fun playing the water activities at Lazarus Island. Meanwhile, my wife and I got to enjoy the scenic view of sunset with drinks on the sea. It was a very special moment. I highly recommend parents who are looking for fun family activities!
Sara Martin Sanchez
100% recommended! I would give them more stars if possible! Seek Sophie is a company that helps you organize your trips without trying to sell you something that is not what you are looking for. They care about you, they listen, they recommend and they finally organize everything in a personal , economic and safe way.

Had an amazing experience on my big day on Yacht Kingdom. Alvin and captain Mus are very accommodating, friendly and helpful! I had 18 guests onboard and all of them enjoyed themselves, especially because it’s their first time on the Yacht! The weather was good and windy, we went to St John Island to enjoy the view and some photo taking too! Facilities like water sports all provided like canoes, water mats! Would love to come back to my second yacht experience again! Highly recommended to others too
Maia Lee
A perfect cruise out with our friends! Service was top notch, captain was a total pro and the kayaks & floats proved to be a hit with those especially young-at-hearts. The hours out at sea seem to go by so easily when you are comfortable. Everything is clean and neat. Thank you Alvin & Sip N Sail for making our first trip out on a yacht party so memorable! We are definitely engaging with your services again!

6. Ximula Sail
Ximula Sail’s origin is rather heartwarming. Founded in 2014 by a father-daughter duo, Ximula Sail was named after the very yacht the family had brought – Ximula, a 40-feet Lagoon 400S2 sailing catamaran. Due to its many communal areas and expansive sun deck, it’s not hard to see why this private yacht is especially popular for get-togethers. You can find amenities like portable watermakers and freezers, as well as an ice cooler and a fully equipped galley. Therefore, there’s no doubt you’ll have a good time as you relish the cool sea breeze and have a relaxing time with your loved ones.

We had an awesome time last evening on the sunset cruise with Mingqi, Vanessa and Faris. The crew were really warm! They hosted my 2 little excited ones throughout the sail, especially Mingqi. The yacht is beautiful and really well kept. We will be back!
Wendy Tan
Experienced, ultra friendly and knowledgeable crew who go out of their way to ensure your enjoyment and comfort.
Went for their weekly Sunset Cruise around the Singapore Southern Islands, (very reasonably priced!!) and I can’t wait to do it again!
