Rent a Yacht in Phuket, Thailand: 5 Mega Yachts for 40–44 Guests
One boat, your whole crew — a private crewed mega yacht in Thailand with a full 8 hours of Andaman freedom for 40 to 44 guests.
↓ pick your boat & your hours — your own day, your own party
Forget splitting your group across three speedboats. A private crewed yacht rental in Thailand puts forty-plus of your favourite people on one deck for a full eight hours — captain, crew, catering and route all handled. From Ao Po Grand Marina your group sails straight into Phang Nga Bay, and the day belongs entirely to you.
Boarding at Ao Po Grand Marina around 9:00 AM. With a big group it pays to move early — your captain clears the bay while the crew serves welcome drinks and the DJ (or the Bluetooth playlist) warms up. Eight hours buys you two or three proper stops, a full lunch at anchor and a golden-hour return.
Show details
Morning — depart & first swim stop. A smooth 9:00 AM cast-off, then a short cruise to a sheltered anchorage in Phang Nga Bay. The crew drops the water slide and floating pool, snorkel gear comes out, and the first round of photos gets taken.
Midday — lunch at anchor & water fun. Lunch is served on deck while the yacht sits in calm water. Afterwards it is kayaks, paddle boards, jet ski runs and swimming — or simply a cold drink on the top deck while the sun does its thing.
Insider tip: With 40+ guests, book your boarding slot for the earliest departure you can handle. The bay is glassy before 11:00 AM and the best anchorages fill up fast in high season.
These eight-hour charters are built for big birthdays, company days out, wedding parties and reunions. Every yacht comes with a professional captain and crew who handle navigation, safety, food and service — you just bring the people.
Best Value Catamaran
Satisfaction Cat — 55ft Catamaran
⛵ Wide, stable sailing deck that keeps 40 guests comfortable all day
Paddle boards and snorkeling gear for the whole group
Fishing equipment on board for the keen anglers
✈️ Private crew included
A 2024-built sailing catamaran with seven cabins and a huge open deck — the easiest way to host a full 40-guest group without anyone feeling squeezed. The twin hulls keep her stable and quiet, so even the guests who never sail feel at home from the first mile.
Did you know?
Phang Nga Bay is not a bay at all — it is a drowned mountain range. Ten thousand years ago your guests could have hiked across it. Today you sail over the peaks. Tell the group that one at lunch and watch them stare at the water like it owes them an explanation.

Party Yacht
Chowa — 74ft Yacht
❄️ Air conditioning inside, sun decks outside — 45 guests, zero discomfort
Bluetooth sound system plus a water slider and floating pool
Minivan transfer to the marina included for the group
✈️ Private crew included
Seventy-four feet of SPLO-designed party space with a VIP crew that treats every guest like the host — capacity for 45. Fuel, VAT, soft drinks, snacks and minivan transfers are already in the package. If your plan is a milestone birthday with speeches, a DJ and a sunset toast, Chowa was literally built for that night.
Feeling the Vibe?
Locals swear the limestone towers of Phang Nga Bay hide caves you can only enter at low tide — and one of them holds a chamber so tall your whole 45-guest party could fit inside and still whisper. The captains know exactly which one. They just don’t tell everyone.
Jacuzzi & Bar
Blue Lagoon 70ft Catamaran
Jacuzzi with sea views and a fully stocked bar on deck
️ Meals, snacks, fresh fruit and cold towels served by hostess crew
Kayak, paddle boards, water slide and floating pool included
✈️ Private crew included
This 70-foot catamaran takes up to 50 guests by day across multiple social zones — indoor lounge, sun decks, jacuzzi and bar — with six cabins if the party rolls into tomorrow. Multiple moods on one boat means nobody is stuck in the wrong corner: the dancers dance, the soakers soak and the champagne crowd sips in peace.
Classic Comfort
King Yacht — 70ft
️ Four cabins, four bathrooms and a spacious salon for up to 40 guests
☀️ Sunbathing deck plus refined interior dining for the whole group
Fishing equipment and towels on board
✈️ Private crew included
A steady 8-knot cruiser with four cabins and a generous salon — the pick for families, business groups and guests who value calm over speed, up to 40 aboard. She trades flash for space and stability, which is exactly what a long lunch-and-swim day with a mixed-age group needs.
A Secret for You…
Ask any Ao Po captain about the “sleeping lagoon” — a bay so still that at slack tide the water goes mirror-flat and the yacht’s reflection looks painted on. Some crews have anchored there for hours without telling the guests it has a name. Yours will. If you ask nicely. And tip the crew.
⭐ Top Pick — Likely to Sell Out
Westport 130 FT — Sea Bear
️ 130ft of flagship space — five cabins, hostess service, capacity for 44
️ Jet Ski, kayak, snorkeling gear and a water slide on board
️ Meals, fresh fruit, welcome drinks and minivan transfers included
✈️ Private crew included
Sea Bear is the flagship of this group: 130 feet, five cabins, hostess service and room for 44 guests — the most elevated way to see Thailand’s iconic cruising grounds from Ao Po Grand Marina. When the whole company is watching, this is the bow they should be standing on.
The Best Part? ️
Here is the part nobody advertises: on a Westport 130, the broker becomes a legend. Forty-four guests, one boat, one photo of everyone on the bow at golden hour — that image ends up framed in offices for years. The Andaman is just the backdrop. You are the story they tell.

Learn More About Mega Yacht Rental in Thailand
How many guests can a mega yacht charter in Thailand actually take?
The yachts in this group are licensed for 40 to 50 day guests, which is why they are the standard choice for large groups in Phuket. Overnight capacity is smaller — for example, the Westport 130 sleeps guests in five cabins while hosting 44 by day. Always confirm your final headcount at booking.
What is included in an 8-hour large-group yacht charter from Ao Po Grand Marina?
Most charters include the yacht, professional captain and crew, fuel, life jackets, passenger insurance, soft drinks, snacks, fresh fruit, water and ice. Several also add meals, welcome drinks, minivan transfers, paddle boards, kayaks, snorkeling gear, a water slide and a floating pool — check each yacht’s live page for the exact list.
Can we bring our own DJ or catering on board in Phuket?
Many crews allow external DJs and catering with advance notice, and most yachts already have a professional sound system and Bluetooth on board. Tell the charter team your plans when you book so the crew can prepare the deck and the galley accordingly.
Which islands work for a 40-guest day charter in Thailand?
Phang Nga Bay with James Bond Island and the Koh Hong lagoons are the classic route from Ao Po. With calmer seas, Coral Island, Koh Khai and even the Phi Phi islands fit inside an eight-hour day. Your captain chooses the route based on the sea and your group’s pace.
How far ahead should a large group book a yacht in high season?
For 40+ guests between November and April, book four to six weeks ahead — the biggest boats are limited in number and go first. Flagship vessels like the Westport 130 are often reserved months in advance for weddings and corporate events.
Is the yacht private for our group only?
Yes. When you rent through yacht.day the entire vessel is yours, with no strangers aboard. The captain and crew serve only your group for the full eight hours.
