Connecticut is a roughly rectangular state on New England’s Atlantic Coast. Nicknamed “The Constitution State,” it is one of the Thirteen Colonies of the American Revolution. Today, most of the population lives in highly urbanized areas. Find your way to the state’s many rivers, lakes, and small towns to escape the crowds. From Connecticut’s top-rated beaches, such as Candlewood Lake, make a break for it on a jet ski or a motorboat. See as much of the 332 mi (534 km) of Connecticut’s coastline and bring your saltwater fishing gear to the angling hotspots of Long Island Sound. Although there are amazing treehouse hotels and vacation rentals in Connecticut, booking quality accommodations on the water should be one of your travel musts. To help, you, check out the top yacht charters in Connecticut, USA, below.

We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) Superhost status, recent guest reviews, location, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and amenities. The image galleries get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on April 13, 2024.

1. Stately family-friendly yacht, Mystic (from USD 437)

Check the weather forecast when booking the only Vrbo yacht anchored in downtown Mystic. Enjoy the sunshine and blue skies from the deck of this 1986 DeFever, then let the sea breeze lull you to complete relaxation while the boat bobs away on the dock. Do make sure your children are wearing life jackets while they are on deck with you.

This yacht has two salons where you can hang out while watching a movie. The aft salon has fridges and two pull-out couches, while the main salon features an electric fireplace. Meanwhile, sleeping facilities are available in the master stateroom, forward cabin, and port-side bunk room.

2. Cozy boat with sunrise views, Westport

Surprise your beloved and book an extended romantic interlude in this furnished yacht. The stocked floating home will be anchored at a top spot for sunset viewing. You can lie down on the boat’s roomy deck and work on your tan. When you tire of the heat, be mindful not to bring shoes into the downstairs area.

Embark on a change of pace in this Airbnb that’s only minutes away from the train station of Westport. You can also spend a weekend dining on the yacht’s deck instead of at a restaurant on the shore. If you’re not in the mood to cook on board, take a dinghy or kayak to the restaurants lining the harbor.
