I would not consider this...
I would not consider this a “luxury” experience. There were 20 people on a catamaran with little shade, crappy food and crappy cocktails. However, everyone working on the boat was very nice and seemed to care about their jobs. The trip was $150 per person. We got to the marina by arranged car from the “luxury” boat trip an hour and a half before the time we were to depart, in order to walk thru a gift shop and then sit out in the heat until we were loaded onto the boat. We then parked in a crowded cove for 3 hours. Then went back to the marina to depart. In addition to the $150 per person, there was an additional $15 “dock fee” and gratuity. This was the opposite of luxury.
Operator response
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re sorry to hear that the tour did not meet your expectations, particularly regarding the “luxury” experience you were expecting.
We appreciate your feedback about the waiting time before departure, shade on board, food, drinks, and overall value. These are important points, and we will use your comments to review how the experience is presented and where improvements can be made.
We’re glad that, despite your disappointment, you found our crew friendly and attentive. They work hard to take care of our guests, and we appreciate you recognizing their efforts.
Thank you again for your honest feedback.

We were excited to check out the sea, as the hotel beach was covered with seaweed. We had a great day on the boat and snorkeling. Our only recommendation is to consider serving tacos with the chips and guacamole; and to play a variety of music. The crew were amazing and knowledgeable — would go again.
Operator response
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear you had a great day on the water and enjoyed the snorkeling, especially with the seaweed conditions at the beach.
We truly appreciate your suggestions about the lunch and the music. Feedback like yours helps us continue improving the experience for our guests, and we’ll certainly take your recommendations into consideration.
We’re especially happy to hear that our crew made such a positive impression with their knowledge and service. They’ll be thrilled to know you enjoyed your day with us.
Thank you again for your kind words, and we look forward to welcoming you back for another unforgettable adventure!

Great catamaran experience!
A little long of a drive in shuttle and early waiting to get on the catamaran. But once on, Mateo and the staff were amazing. Great instructions and explanation of the trip plans. Always felt safe and attended to. Snorkeling was short but adequate. The reef fish were beautiful and we saw just enough for the time we were out there. Drinks were excellent and plentiful. Lunch was good. We were on boat 11 and couldn’t have asked for a better time.
Operator response
Thank you so much for your detailed feedback! We really appreciate you sharing your experience.
We understand that the shuttle ride and early boarding can feel a bit long, and we truly appreciate your patience. We’re so glad that once on board, Mateo and the team made it a great experience — providing clear guidance, great service, and a safe, enjoyable atmosphere.
It’s wonderful to hear you enjoyed the snorkeling, the reef fish, as well as the drinks and lunch. Sounds like Boat 11 delivered a fantastic day!
We’d love to welcome you back again soon for another great adventure!

Day on and in the water
Great day out on the water. Hosts were great, and the photography was a nice added touch!
Had a lovely day and would recommend this to anyone who wants to both party, or relax and play in the water.
