My wife and I had a fantastic trip Jetskiing with Josh. Alot of fun and highly recommended!
Thank for the shout out for Josh! That is always appreciated. We are so glad you had fun!
So much fun. my first time jet skiing, Josh was a great guide made me feel comfortable, my partner who is experienced got to ride to his level. Definately would go again.
We love hearing this! Josh does a great job making first-time riders feel comfortable while still giving experienced riders the freedom to enjoy the ride. It sounds like the perfect combination. Thanks for joining us, and we can't wait to get you back out on the water for round two.
Nice time on the water. Saw some spotted eagle rays. Beautiful scenery. Lots of fun for my daughters.
Wow! What a fun sighting, Brandy! Spotted eagle rays are always a highlight. We’re so glad your daughters had a great time and got to enjoy a beautiful day out on the water. We hope to have you out on the water again.
Great excursion to do! My friend and I love it. Will definitely be back. D’Moi was a great tour guide, very fun, and made sure we were safe and comfortable. Even got to see some sea turtles and an eagle stingray
Wow, that sound like a fun trip! Thank you for sharing these great details about your experience. We hope you join us again if you return to St. John
D’Moi was the best tour guide. He made us feel comfortable, gave great directions, kept us safe, and helped us have fun. It was an amazing experience!
Thank you for the five stars and kind words for D'Moi, Glenna! We hope to see you zooming around the coastline with Cruz Bay Watersports again soon!
Great views and our guide Demore was personal, friendly and made sure the whole group felt comfortable!
Thank you for the great review, Kyle. We’re so glad you enjoyed the views and the crew made the experience comfortable and fun for everyone. We’ll be sure to pass along the kind words. Hope to have you back again soon.
We rode jet skis for our 10-year anniversary and had such an incredible time. The ride over on the Fast Cat from St. Thomas was smooth and easy, and the whole experience was so well organized. Our guide Josh was amazing—super friendly, knowledgeable, and made the tour so much fun while making everyone feel comfortable and safe - he knew where to play and where to chill. Exploring the coastline by jet ski was easily one of the best ways to see the islands and views you normally wouldn’t get to experience. Highly recommend this tour if you’re visiting St. Thomas or St. John. 10/10 experience!
Thank you for choosing to celebrate with Cruz Bay, Caris! It sounds like an absolutely perfect anniversary made all the better with new experiences out on the water. We hope to celebrate with you again next year!
We had an amazing morning on the Jet Skis here in St. John. Our guide was super knowledgeable, great on safety but also let the kids have fun. My husband went along grudgingly but came home fired up, raving about how fun it was.
Thank you for the fantastic review! We’re thrilled you had an amazing morning on the jet skis and that your guide balanced safety with fun for the kids. We’re glad your husband ended up loving the experience too!
Incredibly fun experience! Guide was great and attentive. Took photos for everyone and created waves!
Thank you! We’re thrilled you had an incredibly fun experience and enjoyed the attentive guide and photos. Sounds like a memorable time!
Double check to make sure the end provider has jet skis and is ready for your trip. The end provider Cruz Bay Rentals was not doing any jet ski trips on the day or week of our reservation. What a complete break down in communication between Viator.com and the end provider. I’ll never use either going forward. We wasted all our time getting prepared and getting to the site only to be turned away. NOT a good experience and nothing provided to us for all our time. Viator or Cruz Bay Rentals should have recognized that and given us something for troubles. If we did not show up (like they did not show up, they would have kept our trip fee. Very, very disappointed.
We’re truly sorry to hear about your experience and the frustration it caused. While we partner with third-party booking platforms like Viator, we understand that it’s our guests who are ultimately affected when communication breaks down. Your time and expectations matter, and it’s disappointing to hear that this situation was not handled better. We’ve shared your feedback with the appropriate team and will be reviewing our coordination process with all partners to help prevent this in the future. Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and again, we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience.
