Great trip to Isla Fantasia - A fantastic trip and a great experience. Transferring to and from the catamaran in a small panga (boat) was so much fun.

Definitely worth the money - Really nice experience. The crew was professional and very nice. The boat ride was fun and the beach time was amazing. I was solo and met people on the trip. Do the snorkeing pretty cool aquatic life and the food was real good. The lady that barbeque knew what she was doing. The drinks kept coming! Bring a dry bag instead of a bag. I will definitely do this again

Very nice even on a cloudy day - This was a great experience! Though it was cloudy and drizzling to start off it was still very cool! Pina Colada was perfect! Food was delightful! Definitely would recommend for a chill private beach day!

Fun in the sun - It was a lot of fun. Plenty of drinks and a great meal. Only thing to be concerned with was the snorkeling. Dumped off and left. New snorkelers and no help in site.

Hits the main points but lacks personality - To be completely honest, the trip was ok if you do not want any special attention given to you. You will be given instructions with little or no personalized flair. The captain has the minimum amount of personality. The catamaran itself is pretty dirty and the 'bathroom' isn't an option. There is no place for them to really wash anything so you may ask yourself how is the cup I am drinking from clean, and the answer may be because there is rum in it? Snorkeling gear is dated and pretty rank. Banana boat ride is fun. Getting back into the tow boat... well that has no ladder so it's wake-boat style and if you are a heavy guy in the ocean it's not easy. Everyone kind of just nodded when you asked them any questions and I think 'Pura Vida' may mean something else when the person saying doesn't want to answer a question. So really, the only thing that made this trip worthwhile is the trip to the beach was pretty, the beach was private, the ride on the banana was fun, and lunch was good. It was all the other little things that really detracted from the experience. I would strongly consider other alternatives.
