A BEGINNING INSPIRED BY INTIMACY
The story of Deluxe Private Boats began in a personal way. With his private boat, Adrián identified a gap in the industry; most tours in Cozumel were designed for large groups, which left out those seeking a more intimate environment. His initial proposal was clear, to create authentic moments between families and friends in a private setting.
That vision became the essence of the company and, over time, a growth engine that has allowed Adrián to lead a passionate team committed to excellence.
A CONSTANT EVOLUTION
Founded 13 years ago, the company has experienced remarkable growth, especially in the last four years. In addition to renewing its fleet, it recently incorporated a new 51-foot Leopard yacht, an acquisition that represents a fulfilled personal dream for Adrián. This new boat expands the company’s possibilities by offering longer tours, romantic dinners, greater
passenger capacity, and a higher level of luxury.
For Adrián, however, the boats are only the means, “Boats are essential, but the true experience is created by the people who are part of our team.”
A FLEET AT THE SERVICE OF EXPERIENCE
Today, Deluxe Private Boats has six vessels, all designed to offer luxury, comfort, and versatility.
Beyond adding boats, the company’s philosophy focuses on constantly updating its offerings and designing unique experiences that reflect the exclusive character of each yacht. Gourmet dinners, personalized excursions, and attention to detail reflected in every service are part of the proposal.
THE KEY, PERSONALIZED SERVICE
In a competitive tourist market, maintaining exclusivity is a challenge.
For Adrián and his team, the key has been communication and empathy. “Each person is unique and seeks to live special moments with their loved ones. The most important thing is to listen and surprise with small details that make a difference,” says Adrián. That ability to think like clients and act like entrepreneurs is what has kept Deluxe Private Boats the preferred choice for those seeking more than just a simple tour, a transformative experience at sea.

EXPERIENCES THAT MAKE A DIFFERENCE
Among the most recent innovations is the “Romantic Dinner,” initially designed for couples but adaptable to family celebrations, birthdays, or even marriage proposals. The experience combines gourmet cuisine on board with the exclusivity of iconic destinations such as Playa El Cielo and Isla Pasión, places where the natural beauty of Cozumel merges with luxury and privacy.
A TEAM THAT CONNECTS WITH THE WORLD
At Deluxe Private Boats, hospitality goes beyond comfort on board. The ability to communicate in the client’s language has become a key pillar to strengthen the connection with
visitors from different nationalities. The team of captains and sailors receives constant English lessons, allowing them to share island stories, explain destination features, and convey information about marine life.
This closeness not only facilitates communication but also creates a warm and welcoming environment where clients feel truly valued and comfortable.
AUTHENTICITY IN THE FACE OF COMPETITION
With over a decade of experience, Deluxe Private Boats stands out as the first company to offer this type of exclusive service in Cozumel. Unlike competitors who have tried to replicate the model, the
company owns its own fleet and has a consolidated professional team, ensuring an unparalleled quality standard.
“They can copy what we do, but they will never be able to replicate our essence,” says Adrián Kaye, emphasizing that the true difference lies in the accumulated experience
and the constant commitment to surpass their own achievements.
LOOKING TOWARD THE FUTURE
Innovation is part of the brand’s DNA.
Although expansion to other regions is on Adrián’s radar, the priority is always to ensure impeccable service before thinking about growth. “It is preferable
to have one branch that works perfectly than to have several areas with mediocre performance,” he says.
The new 51-foot yacht opens the door to unprecedented experiences that will soon be revealed, maintaining the spirit of surprise and novelty that characterizes the company. Expansion plans, Adrián assures, will come at the right time and strategically.
A MESSAGE OF GRATITUDE
For Adrián Kaye, the greatest driving force of Deluxe Private Boats has been the trust of its clients. In these 13 years, the company has evolved
and strengthened its position thanks to those who have chosen to live private experiences in Cozumel with them. That support is, in Adrián’s words, the greatest commitment to continue innovating and creating unforgettable memories that transcend time.
With eyes set on the future and feet firmly grounded in the essence that saw them born, Deluxe Private Boats reaffirms its promise, to offer luxury with soul, experiences with purpose, and moments that will remain forever engraved in the memory of those who sail with them.
