Amal

Amal was very responsive and attentive. Boat was very clean and comfortable. Highly recommend.

Amal was an incredible host, looking forward to many more celebrations aboard the Hudson Star!

Excellent boat, and captain. Would recommend.

Everything was organized for me and my sail day went as planned. Beautiful boat.

Amal was very attentive to our needs! She was so sweet toward my daughter and she went above and beyond to make my wife’s birthday special and memorable! I would highly recommend Amal for anyone who wants an impeccable and VIP service for their occasion! I will definitely book Amal for my next boat ride!

Amazing time and amazing service, thanks a ton

We had such a wonderful time on the Hudson Star - the boat is stunning! Amal was super accommodating and thoughtful, and Captains Matt and Vanessa were incredible as well. We couldn't have asked for a better experience!

Amal, Cpt. Michael and Eva were incredible, attentive, responsive and friendly at all times. They gave our group of friends a wonderful time on the boat! One of the best experiences we ever had - most certainly recommend it!!

Professionally organized, seamless experience from booking to boarding through final docking. Amal is responsive and easy to work with. Very nice boat with a great crew! Would book again.

Beautiful boat, great captain, good times.

Probably the next most magical night to us getting married. Words can’t explain how needed that was. Much more business to come. Amazing host, boat and captain. Life is too short. Must experience

We celebrated my husband’s 50th birthday. Eventually We booked Manhattan Mermaid but on the booking date the weather was very windy so Amal quickly changed our boat and gave us upgraded boat without any extra charges. The boat was fantastic and very spacious.
Amal was very attentive and helpful every step of the way to make sure our ride was perfect. We had great experience!! It was very peaceful. My husband loved it. And don’t forget to ask for Captain Janet and Tiffany ,they were fantastic!

My girlfriend and I had the pleasure of experiencing the best boat charter we've ever been on, thanks to Amal. From the moment we stepped aboard, the night was flawless. Amal's boat, impeccably maintained and luxurious, provided the perfect setting for a memorable evening. The views of the Manhattan skyline were breathtaking, and the atmosphere onboard was just as spectacular.

Amal was not only a gracious host but also exceptionally attentive to our needs, ensuring everything was perfect!

The host is fun and easy going. You can find sodas and bag of ice from the fridge. Audio system is definitely fully loaded. We choose sunset cruise, and there are two options to go either north or south of Hudson River. Recommend to hire a captain who had prior experience with the boat as well as the route so that they can gauge the cruising time precisely according to your needs.

Amazing time!!! The entire process was incredibly seamless and everyone was so nice and helpful! Amal + her staff were amazing and made sure everything was perfect for us! 100% recommend and will be booking again!

The entire boat crew were amazing!! I have never seen any boat crew this professional! Would definitely do this again!!

Amal is amazing- very responsive, super pleasant and entertaining. The boat is perfect- spacious, clean and cool looking, more so in person. Had the best birthday party for my son.

Had an amazing time celebrating on the boat. The crew was very nice and accommodating. Amal was so cool and helped make a last minute booking happen. Highly recommend booking with her!

I loved the boat from Amal. We had such a great time by Hudson River! My friends loved too and we had fun! Captain Emit was super nice as well and safety first all the time! I hope to be able to use again!

AMAZING trip! Amal is not only a kind and accommodating host, but also very knowledgable about landmarks and history throughout the trip. Could not recommend this experience enough, 10/10!

Amal made our group feel like family from start to finish! Booking was a breeze. The boat was in pristine condition and our Captain (Captain John) was super sweet, personable, and fun! We had such a great time and we can’t wait to do it again! Thank you again for the wonderful time!

Amal was great and everything went smoothly. We had a great time!

We had an amazing experience! Amal was a fantastic host—quick, clear, and transparent with communication. No hidden fees, everything was exactly as described. Captains Mark and Vanessa were gracious, prepared, and made all my guests feel welcome. They were especially attentive when one guest felt unwell, making sure she had water and was okay. Highly recommend—such a fun and unique way to see NYC!

First time use this platform
Thank you Amal
Very easy communication and flexible

The host is a blast god vibes Excellent service beautiful luxury boat so if you looking for an unforgettable experience look no further

We had a great time on our trip! The boat was very nice and extremely clean. Amal was super helpful every step of the way to make sure our ride was perfect. Captain John and Tiffany were amazing. Would definitely book again!

First Class vessel and crew. Great experience

Great boat tour and our captain was superb! Fun time by all!

Thanks for an amazing experience Amal. My friends and I had a blast. Thanks for your flexibility with working around the weather, much appreciated. The yacht was perfect, Captain Mike and Ally were perfect, the day was perfect! Thanks so much :-)

Amal was a pleasure to deal with. Very attentive and helpful in booking and
A great host as well. Great boat! Great experience. Would definitely recommend.

Amal was so accommodating and so was our captain!

Our group had a great time! The Hudson Star was beautiful and everything was set up for us. Amal was very responsive and she will take care of any last min requests. 10/10 recommend.

The experience was phenomenal. Our entire family truly enjoyed it. We were surrounded by breathtaking views of the Brooklyn Bridge, East River, Statue of Liberty, and Hudson River. This of course wouldn't have been possible without the navigation of Captain Jackie and her crewmate Kaylee. They were absolutely wonderful to be around, which made our evening even more special. They were extremely curteous, kind, and professional. The next time time we take a boat cruise will definitely be with Amal

Was really a great experience, very relaxing.
The boat is beautiful and very clean

What a professional outfit!!!
We had the best time. Amal and her crew were outstanding...We will be back!!😎

What a host!

Had a great time, the crew was awesome.

Our experience on Amal’s boat was truly one of a kind! She made sure that we had an exceptional time, that we were all comfortable, and accommodated through a memorable once in a lifetime experience through NYC waters. We had 3 small children on the boat and their safety was her first priority. The captain made sure they were included by letting them “drive” the boat and at the end we were surprised when they were given certificates for being such great co-captains! A five star experience!

It was wonderful, I am looking forward to the next time.

Great owner with excellent crew and luxury boat.
We had a fun day.
Thanks

Amazing service from start finish. We had a blast. The owner is very helpful and kind. Everything was super easy.

My friends and I had the most amazing time on Amal‘s boat with Captain Mike! The vessel was beautiful and so well taken care of. And the captain and crew did everything to make sure that we were well taken care of. Amal is one of the most amazing people and she truly made us feel so special. The crew made my little sister‘s bachelorette weekend something to remember! Can’t wait to charter with them soon! Don’t hesitate to book with Amal! It will be an unforgettable and amazing experience!

Both Amal and Captain Ross were fantastic. We had a beautiful time on the water in an excellent, well-maintained boat with a knowledgable, fun captain. We highly recommend this!!

Amal and her staff were a delight to work with. Tiffany was a wonderful host, always at the ready with anything we needed. The whole process was seamless for our group of 7. The boat was beautiful and the hospitality was top notch from start to finish. Will definitely be back.
Thanks, Amal and Tiffany!

Such a wonderful experience on the Hudson star. It blew our expectations out of the water. Amal was so professional and attentive. Our crew was lovely. Will 100% be booking them again very soon.

My guests and I had a wonderful experience. Amal was very communicative and did everything to ensure we had a good time.
Captain John was fun, kind and extremely accommodating.
Looking forward to our next sail!

John the boat captain is a great guy and a very good captain. Amal takes great care of her customers. I highly recommend using this group to book your next water excursion.

Had a magical time on this beautiful boat! Amal is very professional, responds to messages promptly and made the entire booking experience very pleasant & easy! Once it was time to board the boat Amal was there to make sure the boarding process was smooth. The boat is clean, modern and spacious! Plenty of space to hang out in the front or back of the boat. Crew she recommended also did a great job. We had a 7 year old on board and they made it very special for him too! Would highly recommend!!!

Highly communicative and very easy booking process.

The boat was very well equiped and the recommended Captain was great. Had a wonderful time out on the water, thank you!

AWESOME CHARTER!!! Seriously not exaggerating. Amal was so patient and helpful with all the details, the captain provided a truly interactive experience, and the deck hand made us feel so comfortable. Most importantly, the yacht was clean, comfortable, and luxurious! Booking with Amal is the way to go!

Had an amazing time on the HUDSON STAR with my team. Wanted to take a break and recharge and this was what we needed. The boat is luxurious and super clean. Nice touches all around and we even had our own hostess. Captain mike was awesome and this was truly a great time for building camaraderie.

If first impressions are everything, I can’t imagine a better one than our experience meeting Amal on the dock before boarding. She was charismatic and accommodating, and it seemed her top priority that we enjoy our time on the water. The Mermaid was perfect for our group of 10, and our captain was professional and easygoing—I mean the man chased the sun for the best lighting in our photos! Cannot say enough good things about this charter!

Amazing, perfect boat! Would definitely book again.

The Hudson Star is an incredible yacht, and Amal and her team are extremely nice, responsive and helpful!! We had an amazing time!

Professional at the same time very friendly, curious and great team. Captain was good. Boat was spotless clean. Crew was available to onboard on schedule. During my booking days, had some questions and Amal has always been prompt to respond and help.

We were celebrating my father's 75th birthday and Amal as well as captain took extra care to make this day memorable.

Would recommend Amal any day and definitely would book her again, as need arise.

Amal is a fantastic host. My group and I had such a genuine time overlooking the Manhattan Skyline. Captain Emit was phenomenal as well. Highly recommend booking with Amal, she will take care of you.

Amal is great, looking forward to our next trip.

Incredible experience with Amal, her boat, and our captain Ross! Thanks for making our memorial day memorable and smooth sailing. Will be back!

Amal was amazing. We were running late and she didn’t waste any time getting us on the boat! She was efficient and thorough. Her honesty also saved us a lot of upset stomachs! I only wish we had more time. Highly recommend and can’t wait to come back. Make sure you request Captain Mike! We had a blast- boat was comfy, had a shaded area and very clean.

It was a great time. It was a pleasure meeting Amal. I plan on coming back for a brunch outing.

Thank you Amal! We had an amazing boat ride! Plus a one of a kind experience!! Your hospitality and attention to details was so amazing! Thank you!

We had a wonderful experience! The boat was spacious and gorgeous and the crew was super kind and helpful. Highly recommend!

The whole experience was great from start to finish. Boat was great and the whole process was seamless!

Working with Amal to put together an experience for us was extremely easy. We had an absolute blast and look forward to working with her again for our next trip

Great boat, great trip. Very nice and attentive owner and captain as our crew. Insisted on making it an easy and fun night for us which was amazing! Not much negative to say. the group felt a little rushed getting off the boat at the end of the night but not a big deal. Overall great trip and would use Amal again!

Amal and her crew are second to none; highly recommend!

Amazing ride, very nice and super clean boat, easy to find the location. I strongly recommend this company

We had an awesome time for my 30th! Amal (the owner) was such a great help, it was super easy to book everything she responded so quickly! Everything went smoothly as planned. The boat was beautiful and in brand new shape! Roland was our captain and he was great, will definitely book with him again as well! Cant wait to get back out there, great experience overall, 5 star service!

We had an amazing cruise ⛴️ celebrating a birthday. Amal was very assistive and accommodating with our late booking and was able to help us get everything ready.
Had an amazing crew; captain John and Tiffany were the best. We share great joke before boarding and on board 😂 we can’t wait for the next cruise 🙌🏾

Fantastic harbor tour with Amal and Captain Jackie! 3 hours was perfect to see the entire skyline, Statue of Liberty, Brooklyn Bridge, the Intrepid, and more. Thanks!

My recent private yacht experience exceeded all expectations, thanks to the exceptional service provided by the owner, Amal. From the moment we stepped on board, Amal went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of our experience was perfect. Their attention to detail, professionalism, and dedication to customer satisfaction were truly remarkable. I cannot recommend Amal's private yacht services highly enough.

We chartered Amal's 38 GLS for my S.O.'s surprise birthday. It was a great day and it definitely made the occasion special.

The yacht was clean, spacious and well maintained across the board. The captain service that we hired at Amal's recommendation was amazing .

Would recommend to anyone looking for a nice way to relax or celebrate in NYC.

Amal was a best in class host! Would definitely book with her again!

Our experience was top tier! Amal was a great host and the hospitality was by far the best one in NYC. I’ll be sure to book again :)

We had the most wonderful time on the Hudson Star, Amal was such a fantastic host! It was honestly one of the best experiences we have had in New York! Thank you Amal and Captain Mike!

Our clients had a wonderful time and have reached out more than once to let us know. Amal was quick to respond, helped out with our catering last minute and our clients report that the boat and staff were impeccable.

Nice boat. Clean and Amal was very nice and informative. There a decent amount of space for all of us and our bags. Captain Roland was cool and accommodating.

Amal, the captain, and mate all were great and very attentive, and we had a really fun cruise around Manhattan and the Statue of Liberty. The boat seemed brand new and was well-appointed, they even had a Happy Birthday banner for me!

My group and I had such a great time on the mermaid. Amal was so kind to us and made sure we were all taken care of. Will definitely book again!

Amal was great with her response time. I didn't know what to expect as this was my first time, Amal was patient with answering my questions. Her overall energy was amazing! Yacht was beautiful and clean, I will definitely book again.

The boat is beautiful, Captain Mike & shipmate and Amal the owner are wonderful. From the beginning of booking the boat to the end Amal was great. 😊

Peaceful and relaxing

Such an amazing time, definitely doing this again.
Great service both on and off the boat
More like a 10 star

We had a fantastic time out on the water with Amal's boat. The boat is beautiful and clean and Amal was very accommodating. Our captain was nice too. We would definitely do this again!

Great company. Amazing service.. boat was perfect

Amal and Captain Mike were great! They were kind and welcoming to a bunch of inquisitive young girls, imparting lots of knowledge on our trip. Thanks for helping me make my daughter’s sweet 16 so special! We had a great time. We will definitely be back!

I had an amazing time, nice captain and mate.
beautiful boat
Good service recommended to go
Good price good people I would go again

Amal
Was great

Wonderful experience and extremely easy. Would definitely use again!

Amal and the crew - Valentina and Captain Jacqui, were excellent and couldn't have done a better job at making my girlfriend's birthday a special occasion. The boat is beautiful as were the views of Manhattan. Thank you to Amal and the team for all the hospitality!

Amal and her crew were absolutely amazing. Expectations were far exceeded. Can’t wait for my next trip with her :)

Wonderful experience! Amal made the process simple and efficient! It was a great way to spend my birthday!

Amal and Captains Michael and Vanessa were fantastic. Clear and responsive communication. Follow through and attention to detail. And the boat is fantastic. It was a perfect evening for us.

Everyone was super accommodating & professional. I had a boat rented previously that had engine problems, and this company was able to swiftly accommodate my group of 10+. The captain they recommended was extremely kind. Thank you for making my birthday special!

Amal is the best! It was my husband’s birthday, and due to circumstances, a lot of my requests were at the last minute. She perfectly accommodated all of them. The attention to detail and willingness to go the extra mile for our satisfaction and the perfect day made me speechless and so grateful to her! Thank you, Amal!!!

Nice and clean boat; friendly and supportive staff. Beautiful day!

We had an amazing time! The boat was lovely and Amal was great in ensuring we were prepared! Would definitely return!

Very Good

What a great host/organizer Amal is. Everything is super clear and well organized. She is super reactive, and the boat was absolutely great.
Many thanks again!

Fantastic experience, Amal is incredibly organized, professional, and fun!

The mermaid was immaculate and we had a fantastic time out on the water :)

Great boat, new and clean. Amal was a great host. We had Michel as our Capitan and Tiffany as crew, they were both great and professionals. Thank you very much for a great time

Wonderful experience! Highly recommended! Boat was super clean, comfortable, and both the captain and the hostess went above and beyond to ensure all of us were comfortable and having an enjoyable time!

we and my friends had a great time!!!.I will definitely recommend this.The owner was excellent and she made sure my bday was a blast..n captain Ben did a great job..Will definitely book again

Somehow this experience was even better than expected!! After reading all the reviews my hopes were high and Amal and her team blew us out of the water (figuratively not literally.) I added on brunch and the setup was gorgeous and Stella who was helping us was so attentive, sweet, and informative. We left with great memories, great photos, and full hearts. I can’t recommend this team enough. I did my research and checked out many other charters prior to booking and am confident this is the best!

Amal facilitated a great experience for us aboard the Hudson Star. We were eight people, five of which were children/kids, some of which required life jackets. We headed to the Statue of Liberty on our two hour cruise. There were cold refreshments on board. We were connected with a great captain and crew member. You could easily connect to the boat’s audio system via Bluetooth and listen to your favorite tunes. Just what the doctor ordered!

We had an amazing time on the water celebrating my sister's 30th Birthday! Amal was fantastic, a great communicator, and most importantly the boat was BEAUTIFUL! Highly recommend!

We had a very nice time. The captain, our host and Amal did a great job at making our experience grade A! Would definitely book again!
