Beautiful and pristine boat. Also very spacious! There is a lot of outside seating for those who want to enjoy the fresh air and sun but a lot of space inside as well. The layouts inside and outside are great IMO. The crew is very friendly and accommodating all the while being safety-conscious. We felt like we were in great hands. You also cant beat the location where it is docked: right in front of Amso & Jacksons. All-around 10/10. I would highly recommend to anyone.

What a great experience on board the Vanguard Yacht, the entire day was perfect! The voyage out under the Sunshine Skyway Bridge into the Gulf of Mexico (and back) was excellent, Captain Wendy & crew made sure every detail was handled flawlessly from start to finish. This outdoor activity is great for avoiding crowds in this new day and age we live in, there is no substitute for the fresh ocean air. Food, drinks & amenities on the Yacht were perfect, a little excursion to the Egmont Key Beach was the cherry on top. I highly recommended this boat for a day on the Bay.

First off I’d like to start by saying I don’t write many reviews. However, with this experience I absolutely had to! Was on this beautiful yacht a few weeks ago and had the most amazing time! The boat was incredible and the staff was beyond amazing. Not only did they cater to our every need, but they were so much fun! From our experience with the boat’s concierge, Kristen (who went above and beyond to answer every question we had) to our experience on the water. I felt like the staff truly enjoy what they do. I’ve been on many charters and this was by far the best! If I could give more than 5 starts I would. Can’t wait to do it again.

Sunburst Yacht Charters professionalism, customer service, as well as Captain Wendy and the amazing crew made our day of adventure on the water one of the most memorable highlights in our lives. Kristens attention to every detail in assisting and organizing our event made every thing perfect from planning the Yacht rental to stepping off the pier with smiles. We look forward to our next event soon. Thank you so much. Steve Ellis

Absolutely recommend – they will not disappoint you! Our group had the most unforgettable time. We could not have asked for a better Captain and crew. They were always very pleasant and attentive with a welcoming atmosphere. The yacht is clean and beautiful. Could not rate it more highly – worth every penny. It could not get any better than cruising through the Gulf and returning to beautiful sunset. Look forward to our next trip!

Incredible! I cant wait to do it again. The captain and bartender were both stars. I would definitely recommend this experience to anyone and will happily go again. My 30th birthday was a blast thanks to Sunburst Yacht Charters :)

I attended an event on the Vanguard when it was docked in front of American Social. Once I got up close it was much larger than I expected when seeing it from a distance, I think that is due to the design which is more sleek than big and bulky. The event was very high class but had a relaxed beach/boat feel to it. Our event was before the quarantine so there were a lot of people walking by and sitting at the restaurants, it felt like everyone was checking out our party and we were VIPs. I was surprised at how big the boat was and how many people were on it without feeling crowded, I was also shocked at how big the bedrooms are when i took the tour. While we didnt leave the dock there were two stewards (at least I think that is what they were called) that were everywhere helping keep our food replenished and the bar stocked. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who wants a VIP experience.

Had the best experience with Sunburst Yacht charter! Captain Wendy and her crew are amazing! We cant wait for next time!

Thank you Captain Wendy and Sunburst Yacht Charters for such an amazing day. My office chartered the Vanguard for a work event a few weeks ago. Everything about the day was perfect--ship, crew, and destination.I dont remember how long the Vanguard is, but I was shocked at how big it seemed once aboard. Between the seating at the large table at the stern, the comfy/cool interior dining area, the great views from the bridge, and the relaxing sun pad to lounge on the bow, there were so many places to gather with people or break off if you just wanted to take it in.Captain Wendy and her crew went above and beyond from the time we stepped aboard until the time we left to make sure we had everything we needed. Drinks, food, information...you name it, they took care of it.We ended up heading to Egmont Key for the day. The ride there and back was great with views of Tampa and St. Pete skylines and getting to go under the Sunshine Skyway bridge. Saw some dolphins too! We were tendered (ferried?) from the Vanguard to a cool little beach at Egmont that was basically private. The weather could not have been better.Everyone had a great time. Thanks Sunburst!
