One direct flight from O'Hare, then a private yacht along the Riviera Nayarit.

Yacht Charter Punta Mita From Chicago

Chicago

Chicago travelers planning a real escape from the Midwest winter tend to want more than a resort pool -- and a private yacht charter in Punta Mita is exactly that kind of reset. After a direct flight into Puerto Vallarta, it's a short drive to La Cruz de Huanacaxtle -- the marina serving Punta Mita and the Riviera Nayarit -- to board Rayando el Sol, our Tanna 47ft luxury catamaran. Choose a 3-hour sunset cruise for up to 12 guests, a full-day private charter along the Punta Mita coastline, or an overnight trip for up to 8 guests who want to sleep on the water. Every charter is fully private: a dedicated crew, an onboard chef preparing a four-course gourmet menu tailored to your group, and an open bar stocked with craft cocktails and fine wine. Paddleboards, snorkel gear, and fishing rods are included, along with Starlink WiFi and a premium sound system. For a Chicago crowd that's earned a real vacation, this is a full day (or night) built entirely around not doing anything you don't want to.
