WARM MEMORIES - Looking back at our photos helps revive our memories laying out on deck under full sail and calming breeze to Bonita’s “secret” sandbar. It’s quite an experience being able to swim around in 3’ to 5’ crystal clear waters while about 1 km from shoreline. During all this Jose and crew were non-stop making sure our (small) group of 9 were looked after whether its a beverage in-hand, laying out deck pillows to add to our comfort, and making sure we didn’t stray far from the sandbar. Lunch was perfect with ham & cheese in a fresh bun, fruits, pico, chips and unlimited beverages with juices, water, spirits and cold cold cervaza! We would do this again!! Well done Jose!

Beautiful views - Absolutely gorgeous trip! Staff were attentive and fantastic. Everything was clean and prepared for us, we left ahead of schedule and came back on time. Transport was easy, clean, and on time. Highly recommend this group for your catamaran excursion. Minimal guests on the boat, normally this would cause the trip to be cancelled but they made it happen for us and it was incredible.

We had a great time on... - We had a great time on the water. The crew was fun, attentive, and professional. We felt very safe - they even put towels down on the benches and floor so we wouldn't slip after swimming. Highly recommend!

Amazing chill afternoon on the water.. - Amazing afternoon chill session…wasn’t busy at all and the crew were incredibly attentive - coupled with amazing water, the wind in our hair and a few drinks (and snacks) to take it the next level..Highly recommend (we added transport and that was great too).

WOW!! Jose, Ulysis, Ubi,... - WOW!! Jose, Ulysis, Ubi, and the captain (my apologies, his name escapes me) were attentive, kind, and very friendly. We were lucky enough to have the catamaran to ourselves and it was an incredible experience…..something we will always remember. We will definitely do it again and again 💕

Unpleasant due to weather - This review is strictly based on our experience and the high expectations we had for this day trip at sea. First off , there was a hurricane warning for the area and we tried to cancel the excursion. When we got ahold of someone they seemed upset and were told to call viator. Viator told us no refunds only the catamaran company could do that and we wouldn't know if we could get our money back until a few days. We decided to just go and it took along time to get there due to all the roads being flooded. A total of 3 couples went. One couple told us they were offered a refund since it had been canceled previously due to weather and this was there last chance since the weather was somewhat decent so they decided to go ahead and do it. We did not have that option, or we would have gotten a refund. The water was choppy and we only went to one location. We travel alot and have done many catamarans and they are lively and full of fun. This one seemed dull and no staff getting the group to have fun, dance, or get involved. when you are told there is a hurricane warning at least sound like you have a plan and make the group feel safe. No explanation of life jackets or life boats nor plan was ever explained. We actually did find the life boat when we were headed back to shore because it came halfway unattached from our catamaran due to the choppy water! We had to stop and the staff tried to reattach it. They couldn't do it, so we sailed back to shore with half the lifeboat dangling in the water. My husband and I are on the older end of 40 and him 50 and the 2 young couples were in there 20's. They played latin music which is perfect for me because i am Hispanic and listen to that on the daily basis and my husband is Caucasian and likes rock and country. No one else spoke Spanish and one couple was from England and the other from US. They never asked them what type of music or got them to enjoy the experience. We have kids their age so we know that the music could have changed the quiet somber mood we had going. They could have made the best of this unpleasant situation mother nature handed us, but unfortunately it was not the case. I wanted so much to love it due to it being my bday but it wasn't. Hopefully if the weather would have been better our experience would have been great like other reviews that got us to book.
